top 5 favorite anime openings?

asking me to reduce favorite OPs to a mere 5 picks is an act of violence committed upon me but i will try and yes i did just spend the past hour+ watching anime OPs on youtube for direct comparisons

the following picks have been made by weighting in three main elements: visuals, music, and personal fondness or nostalgia. any that did not make the cut were most likely measured just short in one or more of the aforementioned factors compared to the competition.

the list goes as follows: #5 | Pegasus Fantasy by MAKE-UP Saint Seiya (1986)

#4 | Heaven's falling down (V2) by sana JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean (2022)

#3 | Butter-fly by Kōji Wada Digimon Adventure (1999)

#2 | KICK BACK by Kenshi Yonezu Chainsaw Man (2022)

#1 | DAYBREAK'S BELL by L'Arc~en~ciel Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (2007)

thanks for the ask!! 💜

Said this as a reply but I'll say it here too oopsie I closed stuff because I was getting spam and while it should be set to mutuals or people I'm following the ask box miiiight be closed so I'll go open that back up, ANYHOO

@thecodeveronica Man what don't I like about Laios and what could I possibly not like about him! I actually just decided to re-read DunMeshi again actually - so this is kinda funny to get out of the blue! Okay but uh in all actuality I guess my favoritest thing about Laios might be his well him. He's a curious personality, people who aren't close to him might think he's mysterious and others might think he's some big dumb golden retriever of a man, but he's a good leader he's fascinated by monsters to an almost unhealthy degree and he's kind to those he barely knows. He's a wonderfully done character and like Kabru I find myself interested in the content that shows what he was like to get to who he was throughout the manga, and I would love to see more after who his last journey turned him into.

As for dislikes I don't really think I have anything I would really change, maybe the thing I like the least is uh well ....Minotaur tiddies. Yeah.

for the "weirder asks," 1 and 21!

huzzah more asks~!

who is/are your comfort character(s)? I have even more characters besides the ones previously mentioned (I just forgot about them oop). Several of them I have as figurines now, actually: Yang Xiao Long from RWBY, Rukia Kuchiki from Bleach, Tohka from Date A Live, Sakura Kinomoto of Cardcaptor fame, and Trunks from DBZ. Yu-Gi-Oh! also owns a lot of me. Mai from the first series, Ruka and Mikage Sagiri from 5D's, and Masumi Kotsu from Arc-V. I do also adore Kachidoki Isao from Arc-V too though. ^^

21. something you’ve kept since childhood? I still have almost every stuffed animal I've ever been gifted, including ones my mom got me before I was born. There's one named Molly who is a stuffed doll with brown pigtails and a sort of... farmer's girl dress/outfit, I guess? Unsure how to describe her without finding her for a photo op. But I picked her out of Walmart myself as a child and we will die together if I have anything to say about it.

sending an ace attorney question to you this time: favorite game (and case if you want!) in the series?

OOOH okay so I've only properly finished the main trilogy, and I'm one case deep in Investigations 1, (and half the stuff I reblog is spoilers but I've got a memory like a cheese slice so I'm not too worried about that), so this is definitely subject to change, if I'm starstruck by anything later. But as for now...

Oh, this is hard. I guess I'd say AA3 - Trials and Tribulations? I know it's probably a basic choice. But it's the best in the trilogy, because all the plot threads come together and weave into this incredible conclusion, and they bring back basically all the characters I like best. I especially liked playing as Mia-- I definitely didn't expect THAT from this series, which was a pleasant surprise when I got to it. Mostly it's my favorite game because it has my favorite case, Bridge to the Turnabout. I enjoyed the POV swap and how it kinda covers all the important characters in one fell swoop. I thought the mystery was incredible, and I genuinely didn't guess the killer until basically before the confession, which is rare for me because I'm usually the one to pause mid-game and connect all the plot points with red string and then see how right I was. (I got Manfred in 1-4 soon after I first saw him snap the fingers on his left hand. Who else is a lefty?) So, a devastating conclusion that managed to shock me? Now THAT'S what I call a game!

Plus, it's always fun getting those incredibly overt Wrightworth moments. They always have this strained sort of fondness and I think it shines exceptionally bright in this one. I think it's the character relationships that stand out to me the most. I really liked how Iris fit into the plot-- that was another thing I wasn't fully expecting, despite my attempts to figure it out. And, it had some great witnesses- Furio Tigre was a highlight for me, as was Dahlia Hawthorne, Bikini, Ron and Desiree Delite, young Phoenix. And I'm just obsessed with the Fey plotline. Seeing the parallels of Mia trying to strike it out on her own, make a name for herself, with the conclusions of Maya being fully in charge of the channeling technique and bearing the target that hit Mia in the first game? Ah, that's the good shit. I absolutely adore when fictional families are constantly trying to kill each other. Or when they stop trying to kill each other and instead awkwardly tag along with their brother's boyfriend's investigation.

Gosh, just talking about it makes me want to replay it. Now look what you've done, haha. Thank you for the ask!!!
