Tank
Gundam - Kind of cool. It kind of just...ends though.
Galaxy - Cool, a space faring train.
Inuyasha - I didn't care for it. I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've seen an Inuyasha opening so that in and of itself is interesting.

Round 1: Match 20

1. "No Matter How You Look At It, It's Your Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!" (Watamote) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAIAXFQ0T74
2. "Fight Together" (One Piece) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgWpKntw2hY
3. "Chocolat a la foile" (Sugar Sugar Rune) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeRCta1t5uE
4. "Stand Proud" (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUCcmjaCL_c


And another awesome round today! And a hard one too...:

"No Matter How You Look At It, It's Your Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular" - Great, unique song and visuals that perfectly highlights Tomoko's insecurities, and has an interesting motif to it as well.
"Stand Proud" - Another exciting, awesome JoJo's opening.
"Fight Together" - A very sentimental opening. The part that recounts how Luffy met and convinced each of the Straw Hats to join the crew is amazing.
"Chocolat a la foile" - A cute, catchy opening. I have to get around to reading SSR sometime (I heard the anime isn't nearly as good as the manga).

Stand by Me - It's JoJo
N. M. H .Y. L. A. It. I. Y. G. F. I. N. P. Exclamation Point - I need to read/watch this someday.
Fighting Dreamers - Surprisingly different from what I usually associate shounen with. Very nice.
Suger Rush - It's cute, I guess.

1. "Stand Proud" (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders) Wasn't impressed in the first few minutes, then it blew me away.  Epicness.
2. "Fight Together" (One Piece) I thought this was really well done and interesting to watch.
3. "Chocolat a la foile" (Sugar Sugar Rune) Thought it was adorable and well made, a close call between this and One Piece.
4. "No Matter How You Look At It, It's Your Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!" (Watamote) Interesting concept, but not to my taste at all. Made me think the anime must be really f-ed up. :D Gave me slight flashbacks to the Black Heaven OP for some reason.

DEFENSE!! DEFENSE!!___OFFENSE!! OFFENSE!!

"Chocolat a la foile" (Sugar Sugar Rune) - 6

Round 1: Match 21

1. "Period" (Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMZBauH47Jo
2. "Sorairo Days" (Gurren Lagann) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCX299HKp_w
3. "Through the Night" (Outlaw Star) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jIvQ0EX4VA
4. "I Am" (InuYasha) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmFf7mFfmd8


Another good one:

"Through the Night" - Always a blast to watch.
"Sorairo Days" - The song really sticks in your head, and no matter which version, the visuals are great too.
"Period" - I love the part where Pride breaks out of what looks like a Philosopher's Stone and attacks Ed and Al.
"I Am" - The animation during the part where InuYasha is fighting Koga is awesome.
