Another great round today:

"New Wuthering Heights" - Definitely one of the most unique openings I've ever seen.
"Hitori no Yoru" - Just as cool as the first opening, imo.
"Inner Universe" - Beautiful.
"Brand New Century" - Nostalgic, but I like the above more.

Inner Universe- once again, the show bores me, but I love this music
Hitori no Yoru- not quite as good as the first OP, IMO, but still good overall
Brand New Century- nostalgia gives this a slight edge for me
New Wuthering Heights- honestly, I feel that people overrate this under the guise of it being unique; it's fine for what it is, but I honestly found myself skipping it each time past the first episode

Don't be a dick just because your opinion in music is 1-dimensional garbage, ass-wipe.

I'm not much of a music fan. Now go get your computer fixed, you schoolboy bitch. :awesome:

New Wuthering Heights - This is so unique. How can you not think so?
Inner Universe - When I tried numerous times and failed to get into the show, it's OP was the only thing I liked. lol @ her busting out the pistol at the end.
GTO - Also pretty unique. This is the first time I've seen anything from the show.
Conan - Ah, I believe the only intro of Conan I saw back then. A bit too flat and the singing wasn't that good, imo.

2. "Inner Universe" (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex) - 23

4. "Hitori no Yoru" (GTO) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDh3D2ewiNs -20

"Inner Universe" and "Hitori no Yoru" move on to round 2.

Round 1: Match 19

1. "Tank!" (Cowboy Bebop) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6zDfxZ4NcE&
2. "Just Communication" (Gundam Wing) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljXFL4dyDIk
3. "Galaxy Express 999" (Galaxy Express 999) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gq-b_iNrQaQ
4. "Angelus" (InuYasha) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OW1nwjC3b3g


And yet again, another good round:

"Tank" - No contest here. I mean, it IS "Tank."
"Angelus" - Tough choice between this and the GW opening, but I love the latin-style beat and a lot of the cuts here.
"Just Communication" - Great song and animation...but the middle is a bit slow...and the sound effects are distracting in the second half for me.
"Galaxy Express 999" - Though a classic and I like it, the other openings in this match are, admittedly, more exciting to me.
