One thing I'm not really a fan of is in palico rage mode when you evade it does a weird superman jump for your first evade, if you do it near an enemy you get a vault, but still, it really messes with your rhythm.

I don't remember this in Generations, definitely has to be a new thing.

We cleared the G4 Urgent Valstrax in about 15 minutes with 3 people. 1 of the guys carted twice and the other was a hunting horn.

I haven't felt the nerf really, maybe a SLIGHT damage decrease but the fact that Palicos gain energy so much quicker now almost makes up for that. I have a lot more bar to use on healing and always having my boomerangs out.

I heard about the nerf but it hasn't really felt that bad.

Woosh! I've gotten up to G3 already and making more and more progress! Gotta max out GRank first so I can start training and leveling my kitties properly. Not running beast yet even though I made one. My Boomerang kitty from Gen is doing well enough and is always a safe play.

A co-worker of mine told me about this and he told me he was actually watching the streamed when it happened. How absolutely horrifying and sickening.

Apparently the camera cut out right before it happened? How did they know to react so fast?

The casters swapped the camera back to in game footage since the game was resuming play just as the player was about to be shot. It was incredibly lucky timing that they swapped it back when they did otherwise everyone watching the stream would have actually seen the shooting happen =/

Crazy Rainbow


Score: 97/100

First things first, I'll be ranking this as the original version without animated Tackey & Tsubasa being thrown in because it just seems weird seeing them there after watching and listening to this theme over 100 times.

Anyways, Crazy Rainbow is definitely one of my all time favorite anime openings and it's a shame it doesn't get more love among the One Piece community. It's just got that raw fun feel that One Piece stands for. While there are a ton of really great One Piece openings, this one stands out for me because I really do love the song and video so so much. I love seeing slice of life hijinks with these characters because you really don't get enough of it during the course of the anime. Of course One Piece has it's fill of filler episodes, but most of the time they really aren't very interesting and rarely have these kinds of fun scenes that I'd love to see more. This, as well as the other older openings also has Chopper in his original design which every time I see I can't help but smile. I love the little reindeer so much and really wish they kept him with his original design rather than making him ultra chibi. Favorite part of the song is DEFINITELY 1:38 where the music dies down and it's just the vocals and then escalates back into the chorus once more with the music coming back. I'm not sure what this technique is called but if there's a song I enjoy and it has that technique used, that part of the song will almost always be my favorite because it just sounds so cool and epic when it goes softer and then escalates with more of the music coming back in.

All and all I honestly feel like Crazy Rainbow just screams One Piece to me in a nutshell and is one of the most fun openings I've ever seen.

The Ancient Magus Bride - Here


Score: 96/100

I'm not going to lie. If I was ranking this opening on just the first 38 seconds, it would probably only be in the 60-70 range. But that is literally the only fault I have with this opening. It starts to pick up at 0:39 and both the song and the visuals start to get a bit more interesting but where this opening goes from being alright to being downright amazing is when the chorus kicks in at 0:54. Not only does the song become fantastic but the visuals too become just breathtaking and awe-inspiring. I absolutely LOVE when anime openings use the music and the video so incredibly well together and Ancient Magus Bride's opening does that and more. I literally get chills every single time 0:54 happens because the transition into the chorus with the video is just done perfectly. From 0:54 until the end of the opening you are bombarded with magical scenes and moments that are just a treat to watch and it gets you wanting MORE. When I see this opening, I instantly want to watch some of the anime and be a part of that world. Just as an aside, Elias is best husbando. The world needs more openings like this.

And yes this is in my top 10.

One Piece - Share the World


Score: 83/100

Not my most favorite One Piece opening but still fairly good in its own right. I have pretty mixed opinions of this one because while I enjoy the beat and feel of the song, I really only like the chorus at 0:56 and 1:45. That part of the song is actually quite great but the rest of it I could honestly do without. The visuals, as it's One Piece are great of course. Give me all the Chopper and I'm pretty sure this is almost right before the time skip so Chopper still looks pretty good and cute. Not super chibified yet. Unfortunately, this song and opening take place after all the Straw Hats get separated so basically at this point in the anime it's all Luffy for 95% of the anime and the rest of the crew just gets shafted in screen time. It's not to say I didn't enjoy these arcs, but I could only go without Chopper for so long, y'know?

Mahou Sensei Negima - Kagayaku Kimi e


Score: 92/100

I'd be lying if I said that nostalgia didn't add a few points to the score of this one but hell I still love this ending anyways. Mahou Sensei Negima was basically the first anime I got obsessed with that was an actual anime and not something like Pokemon or Digimon. Chamo lured me into it by being the most adorable little Ermine ever and also having a hilarious personality to boot. The fact that every time I see this ending I get to see little Chamo marching along to the song just makes me very happy. It's actually pretty funny that Negima is one of my all time favorite animes because with how much I hate animes just about generic anime school girls that is literally almost all what this anime is about. What really separates this apart is that the main character Negi is actually a really cool character AND the OST for this anime is actually incredible. If I were to make a top 10 of songs from animes, I kid you not that probably half the list would just be Negima because the OST is that amazing. Then you have the best Ermine ever in Chamo being super adorable all the time. And THEN you have incredibly epic and touching moments which have amazing music playing to them all the freaking time. Mahou Sensei Negima is just awesome and this ending is no different. Really simple idea executed perfectly with a really pleasant song and a marching Ermine to top it all off.

Sgt. Frog - Ribbit March


Score: 77/100

A pretty safe guess by Karo here doesn't pan out THAT well for him. I definitely enjoy the video more than the song here because omg I love my froggies, but yeah, apart from the song being a perfect fit for these frogs as well as an opening for them, I can't say I really enjoy listening to the song that much at all. It's fun and all, but it's definitely not the type of music I like and if it weren't for the fact that this is one of my favorite animes with some of my favorite characters, it would probably place a hell of a ton lower.

Bane_Of_Despair -
Neon Genesis Evangelion - A Cruel Angel's Thesis


Score: 82/100

Ah... the classic. Not QUITE as good as I remember it being but damn if that song isn't fantastic. I honestly think the video itself holds this one back a bit because there's no way that the song is what's costing it points. I think the first bit of the video is just kind of boring, showing the characters sure that's cool and all but I feel it drags on too long. And then it picks up and is all epic but everything is just going by so quickly you aren't even really able to tell what the heck is going on. I swear most of the images that are going back in the 2nd half are on the screen for less than half a second. Nonetheless this opening is still awesome, but definitely could be improved by a better video.

Digimon Tamers Opening


Score: 70/100

The first bit of the video and the song actually annoys me quite a bit. We just get a bunch of different poses and shots of the main characters and it just overall looks kind of silly. Thankfully this doesn't last too long and over time the quality of the opening gets better and better. We get to see ADORABLE GUILMON YES I LOVE HIM. Everytime Guilmon is on screen, this is a 10/10 opening and every time he isn't, it's not. Guilmon bias aside, the video and song gets a ton better when you get to the chorus at 0:55 when it's highlighting the digimons. If the beginning of this opening didn't kind of suck, this opening could have been a lot better.

Spice and Wolf - Tabi no Tochuu


Score: 75/100

Never seen this opening before but the song is quite nice. It's definitely different than most anime openings that you'll see. It flows very nicely and the video itself is overall quite nice. I'm not sure I'd enjoy the anime itself though. With some personal bias, I don't really like people with animal ears and a tail slapped on and then saying its about a wolf. Maybe she can change in the anime or something, but overall the design of a human with animal ears and tail instantly puts me off. That being said the opening video and song doesn't give me any bad vibes at all. I particularly enjoy 0:52 till the end in terms of music and video. Very nice.
