There aren't many things I can say I've waited over 20 years for, but a proper English dub of the final season of Sailor Moon is one of them. The U.S. notoriously refused to air this back in the 90's because it included trans characters in featured roles (along with other queer characters/themes that had been largely edited out of previous seasons in the U.S.). This show was so ahead of its time. #pridemonth

BNHA OPs 1-7 Ranked

This is my personal opinion. Obviously. The OPs are thoroughly subjective and everyone has their favorites and least favorites. This is just my ranking and its a hard list for me to do because they’re all. So damn good. I’m including both visuals and music here for criteria.

#7. OP 3 “Sora Ni Utaeba” by Amazarashi (Season 2 Part 2, Eps 26-38)

It’s so hard to pick a least favorite. They’re all so good. The imagery in this one is neat and the symbolism is lovely. The song is nice enough. There are a few nice images here and there. This one is just my least favorite of the seven - partly because the song is a little bit too calm for me, and partly because it feels like just a basic summary of the events of the arc in imagery. I think the real reason this one is lower down for me is because it’s tone doesn’t exactly match the arc it’s attached to. The Stain arc is a little dark for this upbeat intro.

#6. OP 5 “Make My Story” by Lenny Code Fiction (Season 3 Part 2 eps 51-63)

This one has a pretty kickass song, albeit one that’s more of a rock jam than an emotional hitter. This one is actually lower down because aside from the final shot of All Might’s shadow encompassing Deku and Kacchan, the rest of it is again just more of a plot summary to me than a big symbolic fest. It’s just straightforward lineups of the characters rather than the more creative images of other OPS. Or maybe it’s just the PLE arc.

#5. OP 1 “THE DAY” by Porno Graffiti (Season 1, Episodes 1-13)

S1′s OP still stands up ok after all this time. This one is very Deku centric, which is probably what makes me like it a lot. All the broody Deku imagery and the opposed BKDK shots, the falling notebooks and the opening image of him reaching out towards that void image of All Might. Also the song is this darker, more edgy jam compared to some of the others and it still stands up after all this time.

#4. OP 7 “Starmarker” by Kana Boon (Season 4 part 2 Episodes 77-88)

This OP is pretty perfect for the season it’s attached to. It looks like a slice of life OP, lower speed and more easy-going in tone, with lots of shots of characters having fun. I’m really into the symbolism of it here and there, especially the part with the candy apple and the brooding scenes of TodoBaku. And all of the Jirous. So much of Jirou in this OP.

#3. OP 2 “Peace Sign” by Kenshi Yonezu (Season 2 Part 1, Eps 14-26)

Ah, the classic. The fan favorite. Most peoples’ pick for at least 2nd place if not first. I do love the song. It just sounds like the soundtrack to BNHA. It fits so well. I think it only lands in 3rd because the imagery is a lot slower and more simplistic than some of the others, at least more so than the top 2, but what we do get is pretty nice, especially the shots of the MCs working out towards the beginning. A respectable 3rd.

#2. OP 6 “Polaris” by BLUE ENCOUNTER (Season 4 Part 1, Episodes 63-77)

Boy howdy did this one grow on me. I started out being annoyed with it and now we’re here. 2nd place. A close second even. The music is epic (I find myself singing along to the title and doing so with gusty). The imagery is all perfect - never though they could make the internship arc look this great. My favorite, of course, is the shot of Deku and Eri falling, but the other stuff is pretty awesome too. It’s so close to being the best. But for now, still unbeaten:

#1. OP 4 “Odd Future” by UVERworld (Season 3 Part 1, Episodes 38-51)

Of course the best arc has the best OP. This one has been the best, to me, since  i watched season 3. Still is. Never fails to bowl me over. The music, the imagery, the symbolism for the All Might vs All for One Fight; the shots of the characters, the way it tells you everything while giving away nothing and hypes you up. I KEEP MY IDEALS ZOREZORE is freaking life, man. And that last shot is the series in a nutshell.
