vordts in barrel

Kids on the Slope OP - Sakamichi no Melody vs. Vinland Saga OP2 - Dark Crow
Dark Crow really grew on me over time as I was watching Vinland Saga, and now I love the full and cut versions of the song. It would take something far more impressive than some brats on a mountain to beat my viking bois.

Amagi Brilliant Park OP - Extra Magic Hour vs. Tales of Zestiria the X OP - Kaze no Uta
ToZ OP is so damn epic. Ufotable's top tier animation and competent adaptations never fail to impress. This isn't as good as Brave Shine of course, but it still shows what the studio can do.

Tesagure! Bukatsumono OP - Stand Up!!!! vs. Black Cat OP - Daia no Hana
Stand Up's meta commentary made me fall out of my chair and onto the floor, which kind of sucks because I spilled my cranberry juice everywhere. The animation looks like something out of yandere sim tho, which isn't a compliment.

Cowboy Bebop - Tank! vs. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kira OP - Happy! Lucky! Dochy!
Fuck EVERYONE! I'm a CONTRARIAN, simply for the sake of it!

The Saga of Tanya the Evil OP - JINGO JUNGLE vs. Assassination Classroom OP2 - Jiriki Hongan Revolution
Neither of these impressed me, but I'm going to vote for Ass Class because I feel bad for Korsai.

Nadia: Secret of Blue Water OP - Blue Water vs. SoulTaker OP - Soultaker
Maybe if I vote for Nadia's OP she'll finally go out with me. Wish me luck bros.

Highschool of the Dead OP - HIGHSCHOOL OF THE DEAD vs. Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works 2nd Season OP - Brave Shine
Absolutely no contest. HOTD's upper-average song is the only thing it has going for it. On the other hand, Brave Shine is fucking magnificent. Aimer absolutely slams every song she does (in a good way ofc), and when you pair that with ufotable's incredible animation quality, you get an opening that truly stands above the rest. God damnit, now I got myself hard.

Gleipnir OP - Altern-ate- vs. Noragami Aragoto OP - Kyouran Hey Kids!!
Potential winner here I'd say. Still not as good as Brave Shine tho.

@EOTFOFYL
The actual show
contains the same quality.
Must be low budget.

@Richman
If you were actually sorry, you'd withdraw your submissions and always vote for mine.

Meh.

Amagi Brilliant Park OP - Extra Magic Hour vs. Tales of Zestiria the X OP - Kaze no Uta

Amagi is not bad. But... nothing special or outstanding. Kaze No Uta, as expected from Flow, the vocal is excellent. The lyrics are memorable, and instruments are upbeat. The whole song is exciting from start to finish.

Tesagure! Bukatsumono OP - Stand Up!!!! vs. Black Cat OP - Daia no Hana

Now this is certainly something truly unique, lol. If I didn't know the lyrics, I wouldn't have known how funny this song is. Black Cat is a good song, but it's not good enough to beat Stand Up.

Cowboy Bebop - Tank! vs. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kira OP - Happy! Lucky! Dochy!

Is Tank a joke submission...?

The Saga of Tanya the Evil OP - JINGO JUNGLE vs. Assassination Classroom OP2 - Jiriki Hongan Revolution

Nadia: Secret of Blue Water OP - Blue Water vs. SoulTaker OP - Soultaker

Okay.

Highschool of the Dead OP - HIGHSCHOOL OF THE DEAD vs. Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works 2nd Season OP - Brave Shine

Now this is a tough match! I'd like to listen to these two again once in a while. I find the former slightly more interesting than the latter, so it gets my vote.

Gleipnir OP - Altern-ate- vs. Noragami Aragoto OP - Kyouran Hey Kids!!

Another hard one to choose. Both are pretty even... Guess the latter is more entertaining to my ears.

btw, you know the animation is bad when it requires minimal effort to edit that gif.
