This topic has seemed kind of slow the last couple days. Not sure if its just that people have less to say about the intros in this part of the list? I could try to pick up the pace over the weekend to get to the top 50 sooner if people want.

Unique: 3.5
Story: 4.75
Music: 3.75
Animation: 4.75
Personal: 3.5
Average: 4.05

The presentation and animation style for this one arent inherently novel, but I found it more distinctive and memorable than the intro for similar shows like Kim Possible. Also, the brief segment where the main characters DNA gets changed by a ghost is kind of unique, with a change in animation style.

Im not much of a fan of the theme song, and I dont see how rapping suits the tone of the show. My guess is they just went with it as a means of exposition to avoid boring narration. But its got an energetic pace that goes well with the visuals. And while on the subject of the theme song, how did they not get sued for hes gonna catch em all?

As for Story, the intro gives you Dannys backstory, abilities, and goals, which is a decent amount of information. But its light on giving us Dannys personality. We at least get some sense of how the character initially reacted with shock, followed by excitement, over his new abilities. But the intro doesnt do as much as it should to show what makes this character interesting beyond being a kid with powers.
