Taiga yo Tomo ni Naitekure
Shikisai

Didn't really like Fight Together, compared to the other OP OPs I've seen I guess it lacked a bit of the fun? Not really what would draw me to the show, and I thought the song was weaker too. Liked the ZLS one much more, fun all around.

Zetsubou Billy isn't bad, but the Spy Family ED is expectedly cute and well animated, really tells a good story. Very strong entrant.

Taiga yo Tomo ni Naitekure
Shikisai

We sure have a lot of of One Piece OPs in this huh? This one seems vaguely more reminiscing-nostalgia driven which I'm sure by it being the 14th OP works like a charm for watchers. Song is fun as always for One Piece it seems, but I gotta give it to my girls in Franchouchou. Song is a banger and although it's technically not that much character animation and a bunch of credits, they do a really fun and creative job of going through them and the colors and styles used are incredibly fun to look at.

I'm sorry Maximum the Hormone, I do love Zetsubou Billy but as an ED as a whole Shikisai is pretty objectively better. Going through the day of all the members of the Forger family as the camera revolves around each section of their apartment is very cool and cute, and it culminating in the huge family dinner and then them going back to their respective day/jobs is very nice.

One Piece OP feels like a clip show, and has a mediocre song to go with it. ZLS has a lot more going on, including some interesting animation and singing that syncs up with it but good.

Shikisai is a great example of how you make a cohesive ED/OP. Music and animation work together perfectly, tells a good story too. Zetsubou Billy's superior songwise and the visuals are fine, but they don't really match up here.

I like the visuals for one ED in the second match a lot more than the first, but I like the song a lot more in the other so nostalgia was the deciding factor. First match wasn't close for me.

I absolutely love the ZLS S2 OP. On the surface it spends a lot of time on the credits, but I really enjoy the creativity it has for the transitions. Like Bane said, it uses so many different colors and styles, and it's all tied together by a great song.

I'm not a fan of that Death Note ED. The SxF ED is also really good, so match two was an easy choice.

Fight Together
Shikisai

First match I'm not keen on either, but I prefer the Namie Amuro song, that said 2:30 OPs are not my thing. When looking up links for ZLS, saw Saga Jihen was an option, woulda made me flip.

Shikisai in the second match was an easy pick, good song, but the ED tells a good story letting you know all the character personalities and dynamics. It's the best fake family.

Fight Together
Shikisai

Liked both songs in the first match but I'm a sucker for the type of visuals Fight Together conveys so I'll go with that one. Shikisai might be one of my favorite songs in the contest, better visuals, and I'm not a heavy metal fan so that was easy.

first match was really tough, zombieland OPs are always a ridiculous amount of fun (honestly i'd have probably also voted even temptation from the hell here because it's impossible to not burst out laughing at that one), but fight together got me in the feels bad

It's tempting to linger in this moment, while every possibility still exists. But unless collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than possibilities.

None were super strong today, but none were bad either. Fight Together had some neat synths, and Shikisai was just a fun song all-around.
