Are you excited for the movie? Heard it was screening for GLAS animation festival in California when it's released too. and yuasa is going to be there.
They both sound like shit compared to the originals.
Christian Gray
To be honest, the original is a hard to match.
Liam Rivera
Wow, yeah not very good. Real downgrade.
Jack Lewis
I didn't even know they were making a movie.
Dylan Evans
isnt opening 100% same? ending no idea why change that old one was better.
Hunter Wilson
OP is the same, ED way worse, though that's because the original is so fantastic.
Thomas Mitchell
its probably a more relevant artist just doing a cover to make it look like they made an effort to update, i wonder if its bd or just literally the same
Colton Stewart
>GLAS animation festival ara, Berkeley huh? I could totally go.
Unless they got Etsuko Yakushimaru to sing again it could have never been anywhere near as good as the first ED.
OP maybe, I didn't care for the original OP much.
Luke Garcia
been at least 3 plus years since last saw it. but yeah new one sucks.
Xavier Bell
So, they just change the OP and ED?
Definitely exited for the movie
Kayden Young
ED won't load, fuck. Oh well, according to you guys it's not as good. Why bother changing the OP and ED when the original ones are literally perfect.
Ayden Reyes
What's the deal with the movie, this is the first I've heard of it. Is it just an abridged version of the series or is it a new story?
Asher Myers
Maybe they had licensing problems.
Sebastian Lee
They put artwork of the film in the ED, so there's that. I liked the beginning of it, with the maps of it, but the IIIIIII LOOOOOVE YOUUUUUU is fucking terrible!
Zachary Hill
do it. along with yuasa's film, there will be TONS of cool people there, and TONS of great short films. we entered a group animated film to GLAS, hope it gets in...
Oliver Kelly
Another novel by the same author in the same setting, the PV showed some side characters from Tatami Galaxy, but the mains are different.
Julian Gray
I really did not like the OP cover, Jpop bands with both male and female vocalists all sound the same to me.
I hate baseballbear in particular
Levi Murphy
>Are you excited for the movie? Heard it was screening for GLAS animation festival in California when it's released too. >and yuasa is going to be there.
Checked it and they are going to screen Mind Game (arguably his best work) and bits of Ping Pong (why?). Still cool, but no new film.
Also, I guess they'll screen a high definition master of Mind Game. It would be so cool if anyone could rip it.
It's a damn shame. The original OP has so much more power. I don't know why the fuck they'd want some soft rock variant.
Luke Perry
The new OP is like one of those shitty covers you see on NND where a couple of dumb bitches are singing through a flu mask
Dylan Lopez
looks like shit, just like before
Charles Myers
Admittedly I'm a Yuasa fanboy, but I feel pretty confident in claiming this will be film-of-the-year.
Gabriel Scott
The more the merrier IMO. The female vocal is an obvious effort to adhiere a larger female audience more like the tone of the movie. It's a pretty good strategy, also a cover is not that bad.
Nathaniel Morgan
I don't mind the cover. It's obviously not as good, but it's just a cover in a different style. ED though is complete garbage.
Charles Hernandez
I can kind of understand remaking the ED since the original is a pretty unique/weird song that might turn people away but the song they replaced it with had such shit singers and wasn't a good song
Lincoln Gray
I don't think anyone has ever been turned away by the original ED. I mean, even if the person doesn't like the show (pretty unlikely, actually), they will admit the ED is bomb.
Jose Turner
Holy shit, they're both horrible.
Chase Phillips
OP is cute as a cover I suppose, though the original is a lot better.
Cooper Walker
Wait, the movie is TG related?
I'm going to watch any Yuasa regardless but that's not what I was expecting
Anthony Phillips
Same author.
Sebastian Clark
>no yakushimaru who even cares
Justin Anderson
BOKUTACHI NO GENZAI WOOOOOO
Easton Murphy
It literally has the same characters in it, and the setup is basically the same as well.
Hudson Cruz
KURIKAESU KOTO DARAKE
Thomas Powell
The original ending was perfect, the new one is lame
I'll give it to them the updated OP looks gorgeous and I'm glad it's still the same song, just in a cutesy style, but the original is just so much better. Can't wait for someone to combine the Ajikan version with the new OP.
New ED is super forgettable though, and I didn't even really watch the original that much
Nolan Miller
The creators should be sent to a madhouse for this.
Wyatt Gutierrez
I really like the new OP. I think it's about as good as the original, just in different ways.
The ending is pretty meh and is obviously an extremely unsubtle way to shill for the new movie by sticking it's characters in there.
Josiah Phillips
I predict that there might be some subtle edits in this rebroadcast to connect it to the movie. Characters from the movie appearing in the backgrounds ect.
Connor Sullivan
OP is alright. I like the original a bit more though. I don't think they matter too much for this show anyways.
Charles Hernandez
Wow this sounds almost good.
Adrian Bailey
>I don't think they matter too much for this show anyways. They are used narratively in the last episodes I think. They matter more than in most shows.
Benjamin Baker
Ost is going to be done by Michiru Oshima and main theme is by Asian Kung-fu generations so I'm pretty optimistic.
Christopher Allen
Does anyone know where the rumor about Yuasa and the guy from Flip Flappers collaborating this year came from?
Henry Rivera
That new OP is a fucking insult holy shit. Gotch is hanging himself right now
Isaac Roberts
Basically this. The ED is not bad per se, but the original is far superior by all means.
Isaac Peterson
>rewatching last episode >op plays after 11/10 conclusion I could die a happy man.
Carson Lewis
No idea but holy shit i want to know about that if it's true.
Joseph Moore
>Have any of you seen the new OP/ED yet? How was it?
Wow, that was awful.
Still excited for the movie though. I loved the novel.
Charles Russell
I've just read it a couple of times from anons saying that Yuasa is doing three projects this year which is the movie, a series in the spring, and the collaboration. The movie and series are confirmed, but can't find anything about the collab.
Chase Perry
Is there an english translation?
Joshua Gutierrez
No, unfortunately. I can read Japanese, so I read the novel years ago.
Morimi's stuff would be tough to translate anyway.
Lucas Phillips
There was a public event with Yuasa, Oshiyama, and Iso recently.
Mason Ward
>based yuasa saving anime Could this be the year of Yuasa? I never knew how much I wanted this.
Andrew Butler
2017 truly is worth living in
Lucas Wright
DAAAM
Bentley Myers
The new OP kills all the charm the first one had. It hurts me to think that people are going to watch it and not know about the original.
Connor Rivera
This
Those last few episodes blown me away
Connor Watson
Ozu is probably my favorite character out of anything I've watched.
Robert Peterson
This is my jam.
Sebastian Brown
I doubt it, if only because it's not the only Yuasa film this year.
Julian Barnes
fucking I want Iso on whatever Yuasa's doing next
Angel Bell
I like the OP as an extention of the old one, but the girl singing in it is a bit too loud to capture the feeling of the song.
Easton Allen
So is this going to be set sometime after the original story?
Gabriel Hall
It's a prequel, and there's a pretty good chance it'll change a bunch of stuff from the novel like Tatami's adaptation
Oliver Morgan
Still like the original OP more, but I enjoy covers like this every now and then. When will they release the full single?
Jace Cox
It's re-airing and it's STILL pretentious trash.
Lucas Hall
the original is one of my favorite songs of all time.
My own interpretation of it would be that its about the doldrum and greyness of life but continuing on in spite of that, knowing life can be beautiful and there's a ray of hope.
The song was sung perfectly. It was melancholy and bittersweet. Sad but hopeful.
This cover is just some goddamn moemoe shit.
Cameron King
>play it once >error >replay it >quality is shit fuck I hate youtube
Landon Myers
your mom is pretentious trash
Zachary Thompson
new OP visuals with old OP song would be perfect
new ED is dogshit and the old one was perfect, only good thing is it seems to have some characters from the upcoming movie
Brody Parker
WHAAAT?? This is the first I'm hearing about a movie. I remember how much Sup Forums loved this when it aired. Life keeps giving me more reasons to live.
Carson Edwards
I liked the synths and wacky sounds in the original ED even more than the vocals
Julian Diaz
>Are you excited for the movie? One of the few Anime films that I'd actually watch at theaters assuming it gets a release over here. Otherwise the wait for BDs will be painful.
Juan Ward
>ED >Animation: >Abel Gongora >Juan Manuel Laguna >Batiste Perron
interesante
Christopher Murphy
That cover and ED are ass compared to the originals.
James Johnson
Original ED was top tier
Hudson Jenkins
What are a bunch of spics doing in my animu? Are they famous animators or something?
