    Ha, that's pretty cool.

    I'm more a fan of the opening music than the actual pictures - they're certainly more unique :P

    I don't know if it's due to every western show just having a few clips as an opening but i prefer the ones that are apart from the shows source material.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 889 ✭✭✭Bajingo


    Neon Genesis Evangelion is there aswell..nit pick...


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    They missed a chance to throw in Deathnote during the "take my hand" bit at the end. Pretty cool though!

    The 90's X-men had 2 openings made for the japanese market with Anime stylings, they looked FANTASTIC.

    Its at 2:07 and 2:54.



    And not part of that video, but yes

    The Japanest opening to X-Men looks awesome, but I must ask, why animate the characters in anime style when the characters look different in the actual cartoon?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 AngelofCrog


    No Trigun either. Or Blood: The Last Vampire.

    Great video either way though!!!

    I'm surprised it isn't there tbh... Every opening they use is more clichéd than the last!!!

    Great video:)

    Great video:)

    Naruto and other long running series have had a few dozen op/ed i assume that would be the reason that the video would have been more impressive finding different shows rather than selecting the aspects easily available from these long running ones.
