Round 1: Match 35

1. "Zettai (part 2)" (Ranma 1/2) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqeK1BCkruw
2. "Kazemakase" (Tsukikage Ran) - http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9090v_tsukikage-ran-op_shortfilms
3. "Golden Time Lover" (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IndSb51ESg
4. "Hekireki" (Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baFzdQiv6Gs

Hmm, I like these about the same...

Zettai (part 2) - The others might have flashier animation...but I like the song here significantly more, so I'm putting it as my first.
Hekireki - The vocals are kinda eh, but the animation and the beat are awesome.
Golden Time Lover - It's pretty solid on all levels, but leaves less off an impression to me than the above.
Kazemakase - Luck of the draw, but this show looks pretty cool. I'm going to have to check it out sometime.

My apologies, GSF, I forgot.  I'll try to keep track of these kind of things better from now on.

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

Hekireki- I feel the exact opposite of CX on this one; the animation is meh, the vocals are awesome
Golden Time Lover- This is most people's least favorite FMAB opening, but I really like it
Zettai- It's decent, but I like some of the other Ranma openings I've heard so far more than this one, which doesn't stand out as much as those, to me
Kazemkase- Kind of mediocre, IMO, though it does have a classical feel to it, and some nice animation, to boot

It's ok. Lupin did make it through.

Liked them in the listed order

1. "Zettai (part 2)" (Ranma 1/2) - This was really entertaining and different.
2. "Kazemakase" (Tsukikage Ran) - One of my favorites, even if it's slow-paced.
3. "Golden Time Lover" (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood) - Pretty cool.
4. "Hekireki" (Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger)  - Didn't quite knock me out, though it certainly tried. AAAAA, boxing gloves coming at my face!

Still planning to vote on this match, GSF?

[gunswordfist]

Hold your horses, CX, I just finished

Hagane - I like the beginning of the song the most because it' so catchy. Probably my least favorite out of the FMA OPs so far but this was the opening during my favorite part of the series.
Ranma - A pretty unique and fun opening. I like it.
Ran - The beginning was pretty cool and I like the traditional style singing.
Ippo - Yawn. The only good part was the first person boxing which happened all the way at the end.
