Last match before the quarter-finals, and what do you know, it's the toughest one yet!

"Mafushigi Adventure" - One of my all time favorites and up there as one of the best dubbed openings I've ever heard.
"Rock the Planet" - Neck and neck with "Dancing Star" as my favorite UY opening.
"JoJo (Sono Chi no Sadame)" - I love every JoJo's opening.
"Bowl Man" - My kind of jazzy music and an awesome visual style.
"Pegasus Fantasy" - An epic and well-animated 80's battle shonen opening.

From now on, matches will only have three entries, and only one opening will move on per match.

Now, without further ado, let's begin the Quarter-Finals!

Quarter-Finals: Match 1

1. "Mafushigi Adventure" (Dragon Ball) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT1Dp69D7q0
2. "Tank!" (Cowboy Bebop) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw3fN3OPk3A
3. "Driver's High" (Great Teacher Onizuka) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phAoChN1nC4


Damn, looks like we're starting off with another hard one:

"Mafushigi Adventure" - One of the best dub openings.
"Driver's High" - Unique and has lots of attitude.
"Tank!" - Unanimously considered awesome. [adult swim] never skips it for a reason.

Opposite of CX. We already lost Big O and Pegasus. Tank will not be the next casualty.

"Driver's High"
"Mafushigi Adventure"
"Tank!"

Purely because I already know what's moving on.

Mafushigi Adventure- More anime openings should strive to be as fun as this one
Driver's High- Excellent visuals which compliment the very unique music perfectly
Tank!- A classic, but I've always preferred the theme songs with lyrics to go along with them

Now that was a pretty tough round.
