Hey now, don't blame me! It's the random result generator's fault!  :D ;)

Results:

1. "You wa Shock/Ai wa Toriwadose" (Fist of the North Star) - 23
2. "R.O.D Theme" (R.O.D. the tv series) - 16
3. "One Day, One Dream" (InuYasha) - 9
4. "Gatchaman Song" (Science Ninja Team Gatchaman) - 22

"You wa Shock/Ai wa Toriwadose" and "Gatchaman Song" move on to round 3.

Now it's time for the final match of Round 2!

Round 2: Match 27

1. "Ai wa Kurayami no Naka de" (Detective Conan) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Vwrw9ZVm_I
2. "Hidamari" (Maison Ikkoku) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbPgf7caQnQ


I'm going with "Hidamari."

All right, I'm just going to end this early, because I don't think there's anybody left who cares about this match enough to vote. "Ai wa Kurayami no Naka De" moves on to round 3.

With that the second round is finished. The third round will be up shortly.

Alright, let's start the third round!

Round 3: Match 1

1. "Ghost Sweeper" (Ghost Sweeper Mikami) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EloWc8_L5CY
2. "Space Pirate Captain Harlock" (Space Pirate Captain Harlock) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uteFMH54MNg
3. "Biggest Dreamer" (Digimon Tamers) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tj0wSg_GQvg
4. "Night of Summer Side" (Kimagure Orange Road) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtTyWCjvSfI


Round 3 sure doesn't waste any time. This is a pretty tough match:

"Night of Summer Side" - I love the well-timed, rapid cuts, and the song is great.
"Ghost Sweeper" - This is just a classic 90's opening that perfectly fits it's show and has some great scenes in it to boot.
"Space Pirate Captain Harlock" - An iconic theme for the greatest Space Pirate Captain there ever was.
"Biggest Dreamer" - An awesome opening that I never skip and really enjoy. But, after watching all of these again, I'd have to begrudgingly put this last.

Captain Harlock, the series and character, is one of Leiji Matsumoto's most famous creations, right up there with Yamato and Galaxy Express 999, Dr. E-K. How you can confuse him with Tezuka's not nearly as popular character and series Captain Ken surprises me. :humhumhum:

Also, Kimagure Orange Road has nothing to do with oranges.  :lol:

Ah. Well, you'll need to try harder to do that. All your comment did was make me laugh.   :D
