That's "Ganbare Goemon" FFS.

Or get their teachers' index fingers (note the plural) in their pooper at any point in their life.

Spoiler...?

I bet someone pulled a YTHB on Shippuuden 06-07 and changed Kakashi's first line in the episode to "I came, several times".

Ranging from the classical 'macho' voice of Macross to the fast-paced-real-event-based lyrics of Genshiken and the Hot-Bloodedness of Yuushaoh GaoGaiGar...

I'm not going to pick sides with so many good openings. <_<

Hey guys! I just got back from a 5-day trip to TN and I must say the Smoky Mountains are pretty awesome.

Anyway, and I don't know if someone has asked this already, but do you guys know what's up with the final episode of Trinity Blood? Or is it not the final episode?

I have the same problem, I'd never be able to choose a favorite...but I must say "Lum No Love Song" is pretty fucking high up on the list.

Yah so do I. I like some of the Naruto ones, the Bleach ones, Trinity Blood is pretty good too. Yah it's too hard for me to pick. What about ending themes? I think that in that category, if you gave me some time to think, I could pick a favorite.

Which leads to the simple but often-left-out conclusion that his question is far too flawed to answer accurately.

Let me rephrase it in my own way:

Of all the shows you have watched, please list the ones which have a notable opening worth watching over and over again.

Much easier question...

The first Hellsing OVA's chaotic choir and booming orchestra ftw.

That or "Don't Mind, China Boy"....it's also quite win.

Once again, much easier.

"Lum No Love Song" - Urusei Yatsura
"The World Without Logos" - Hellsing
"Hare Hare Yukai" - Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu
"Jaja Uma ni Sasenai de" - Ranma 1/2
"Love Seeker CAN'T STOP IT" - Ranma 1/2
"Macross" - Super Dimensional Fortress Macross
"R.O.D Theme" - Read or Die

Or ending. : P

Yah Ak I guess that ending is ok but I wouldn't side with it being good. The 2nd Bleach ending I mean.

You say those words like they're actually easy to say. I mean damn. The only word I know is show. Hell I don't even think that means show at all!

did any one notice how except for LLStarks we all have negative aura or red sigs

Oh, I assure you, I know very little Japanese.

The title, loosely translated is "Adventure, right? Right?" .

Also, if Seven Seas Entertainment's new light novel imprint does not manage to license the Haruhi books within the next year or so, I will have to shoot someone.

I did. I just never really cared.

Fuck. Yes.

Really good stuff there, plus the accompanying animation was made of epic win.

I think i'm going to start work on another AMV, this time using Black Parade for the song. I'm going to use various animes this time...which means it'll take a lot longer, but be more intersting.

So far I plan to use:

MAR (has Phantom in it, which is also in the song, along with lots of other moments, cus it was the anime I first was only going to use)

Slayers Next final 2 episodes (can only seem to get the 1st converted....but might use Hellmaster's attack for the "paint it black" part of the song)

GaoGaiGar (anything from the second part of the series...mostly final episodes stuff. Of course Hammer Hell & Heaven/ Hell & Heaven, plus THE POWER!!!)

Sorcerer Hunters: Final episode

Also maybe stuff from Hunter X Hunter, Afro Samurai...Akira (not sure what to use, but might as well make this as epic as possible), Naruto , Bleach, Fate/Stay Night, Grenadier, maybe Gungrave (haven't watched much of it..but got the last episode..might use one part).

And maybe some other animes I have that I don't remember having.

I'm just using stuff that I have, plus some stuff that I use to have and had to "get" again, like certain Fate/Stay Night episodes.

I guess now would not be the time to express my distaste for AMVs, especially multi-series ones set to mostly unrelated pop music.

Cocks, now I've said too much...

Good luck with your AMV, Dr.

AMV= First few episodes of series+ bad rock music.

That's the way it is more often than not.

The only AMVs I can tolerate are one where the lyrics of the song really have a connection to the visuals.

Fandubs are the only truly interesting fan-manips of anime I've seen on the internet. My personal favorites being the "Talk Shit" series, which parodied Naruto by adding an ungodly amount of music-related in-jokes (Sakura shouting "TWIST?!" after hearing Sasuke growl savagely = lulz, if you were a hardcore Korn fan in the 90s, that is) and a staight adaption of Suzumiya Haruhi No Yuutsu in German (Itsuki sounds awesome).

At least he provided reasons for his opinion.

At least it isn't Linkin Park. Most of the song is just "carry on" and lots of animes have heroes coming back from being beaten down/defeated.

Cocks, now I've said too much...

That's the second time you mentioned cocks on the same page...what's up with that?

Good luck with your AMV, Dr.

Awww.... well the last one worked out well...though that one was simple and I got lucky with the music syncing up with the video elements.

Would it be bad to use Jesus movies for a Black Parade music video?

Yay for Werewolfs, Vampires, Sorceresses, and Cyborgs!

True enough, but it's scarcely better.

Ugh, I just really don't like the theme in general.

Just a thing I tend to say, like how some people overuse "fuck".

Would it be bad to use Jesus movies for a Black Parade music video?

No, it'd actually be an okay idea.

Yay for Werewolfs, Vampires, Sorceresses, and Cyborgs!

Agreed.

I think it would be funny to do fake spoiler AMVs or misleading ones. Like using only clips from the first part of the last episode or second to last episode, to make it look like that is how the series ended. Or using clips and music that doesn't fit a series at all...like sad music/clips to a funny anime or funny music/clips to a sad anime. Example: Probably need an account to view it I think

Sort of like the "serious" episode of Excel Saga (and all the dvd cover pictures).

Hahaha, both ideas are goddamned epic.

Holy fuck, totally hilarious. I would pay cash money to see the whole film butchered like that.

You are slowly restoring my faith in AMVs, good work.

It's an anime based off a manga. That is just the art style. The show is very funny though.

There's Cybersix, which was written and animated by the Japanese for Canadian TV back in the late 90s.

Also, Shin-chan = anime.
