      A little hint for you sense your new to this a easier way to deal with Copyright. Is to pause the song 2 to 3 times and give a little commentary weather it be on the vocals or the instrumentals as well as a short talk about your thoughts and what your currently thinking and feeling and then when it's over give your complete thoughts and feelings a good exapple of some who figured out how to deal with this without a lot of editing and without being boring is (G.O.T Games)

      ​@@auxtaku3449 No offense but thats a terrible idea. One youtuber uses the same method you described (Nicholas Light TV) and its unbearable to watch him after he pauses the freaking video every 5 seconds to say random stuff. There should be a better way to avoid copyright, like changing the volume of the song or something.

      I was thinking that too, full version of Unravel has a whole guitar solo and, although not traditional, some screams as well.
      Although honestly, I was hoping for some reactions to more traditionally "metal" anime opening songs.
      Songs like "One Reason" by Fade for Deadman Wonderland, or "We're not alone" for Rainbow by Coldrain (Really good metalcore band besides anime)
      I do suppose, they're not all that popular as far as anime goes. Although the Vinland Saga Openings 1 and 3 are both fairly popular, as well as "The Rumbling" by SiM for AOT.

    If there is one opening you should listen the full version of than its the Tokyo Ghoul one. The full opening of Tokyo Ghoul is something everyone should at least listen to once.

The opening versions are so short. First op of Tokyo Ghoul is very depressing, but this one may be more to your taste because it is very dynamic and complex.
      Overall, I recommend checking out TK from Ling Tosite Sigure's discography/YT official channel.

    @jorgecabral4591 2 месяца назад +144

    Apologies for the super long comment in advance :/
    Honestly you'll find the industry part of anime songs fascinating.
    So, most studios are affiliated to a production company which then goes to different labels where these artists are.
    So yeah, most of the artists that perform these are actual popular musicians/groups.
    As far as I know, the production companies go to the label/artist and they pretty much tell them about the project they're working on; then the artists make a proposal of a song and sometimes the producers ask for some changes on the lyrics and stuff to fit the anime.
    They create a full song and the producers prepare a 1:30-min version that they can put as opening/ending theme alongside some animation sequence which are usually outsorced by an entirely different studio or animation teams not necessarily related to the production of the series which, I've also heard, can be very good entry points for new animators into the industry.
    There's also some minor instances of voice actors who are able to sing being tasked with performing the opening/ending themes since most, if not all, VAs are part of a talent agency that sometimes requires them to be multi-talented artists.
    Is pretty rare, but some VA-performed songs can go absurdly popular sometimes that it pretty much opens up the opportunity for VAs to engage in an entirely different industry 😂.
    An example that instantly comes to mind would be Renai Circulation, one of Bakemonogatari's openings performed by Kana Hanazawa (greatly recommended btw).
    Also, yes, some series can have multiple opening/ending themes. When a series gets decently popular, it is common for it to be renovated for a new season/story arc/cour (depending on the production).
    (Small parenthesis to explain this part) - most anime series are produced on a seasonal basis so you can expect a 11-13 episode season.
    When a series is scheduled to run for more than one season that's when cours come into place. Usually, a long anime season runs for two seasons (20-25 episodes) so, depending on the production, it is divided into two 10-13-episode cours that can be consecutive (with a 1-2 week break between each cour), or far apart (with an entire season or even longer in betweens, and commonly used for marketing purposes).
    Last but not least would be arcs which were most commonly used in production of long-running weekly series (the obvious example being One Piece). But recently, a lot of series have been dividing into "seasonal arcs" (idk how to call them) which are pretty much normal seasons but are named arcs just for marketing purposes most of the time.
    In the anime industry is a very common practice to have entirely new opening/ending themes for these different types of renovations which is pretty unusual and mind-blowing compared to the american TV industry where opening/ending sequences are are either 10-15 seconds long or non existent and pretty forgettable outside of some minor exceptions.
    As I mentioned, most anime are produced on a seasonal basis so, if you keep reacting to some more openings make sure to check out the seasonals about every 3 months (the summer season just started 2-3 weeks ago).
    Again, sorry for the longass comment 😂

    • @dunerat42
      @dunerat42 23 дня назад

      With apologies, some minor corrections:
      1) VA's singing the opening and ending themes is quite common, even in modern anime. There are numerous examples available, but here's an easy four: _Neon Genesis Evangelion's_ ED has 26 variations from different combinations of the VAs, most of the _-Monogatari_ openings are sung by the arc's focus character VA, _K-ON's_ OPs and EDs are sung by 2 of the VAs, and finally pretty much anything Takahashi Rie is in has the OP and/or ED sung by her. That said, at one time it was very common to just pick an existing song and use that for the opening, regardless of whether or not it really had anything to do with the show. E.g. Coppelia no Hitsugi by Ali Project, used for the OP of _Noir_ but released 2 years before the anime was produced. This practice has mostly died off, starting around the mid-1990s, and most of the songs are now purpose-built for the shows.
      2) "Cours" is a French word that means "course". A loanword in Japanese, it's a broadcasting term with the meaning of "quarter year", and while it does equate to climate seasons, it does not correlate well with show seasons. Cours are always 3 months long, and so normally run 10-13 episodes, but a season in the show sense is usually an unbroken broadcasting run. For example, _Neon Genesis Evangelion_ (26 episodes), _Attack on Titan_ S1 (25 Episodes), and _Sword Art Online_ S1 and S2 (25 and 24 episodes, respectively) are all a single show season but 2 broadcasting cours, and similar to western shows these each represent distinct sections of the story. Shows like _Silver Spoon_ and _Spy x Family_ , meanwhile, have 2 single-cours seasons. Notably, though _Silver Spoon_ does not have a split in it's story, so it may be more properly considered a split-cour season, an increasingly common variation in which a single season of a show is split in to two or more cours with an entire cours in between each broadcast cours, commonly cited as a production measure intended to relieve pressure on the production studios, though that wasn't yet the case when _Silver Spoon_ was made. There are also shorter shows, but these are OVAs (Original Video Animation) rather than broadcast tv; the Japanese equivalent of Direct-to-Video but without the corresponding poor quality and cash-grabbiness that the Direct-to-Video represents in the US.
      Where things get weird is in the other direction: more traditionally formatted stories often have seasons that run more than two cours because they are set to follow complete story arcs, this is more common in older shows due to the story origins: Recent shows have taken to adapting light novels, which often contain complete story arcs in just a few volumes, leading to the seasonal arcs mentioned above, where as older shows were most commonly adaptations from manga that was published a chapter at a time, weekly or monthly, following either a story-of-the-week style format or something more akin to a soap opera. In fact, the vast majority of older anime were attempts to boost manga sales, and typically only adapted around half of the manga's story so you'd have to go buy the tankoban (collected chapters of the manga published in book form). This, incidentally, is why some anime contain so many filler episodes: the anime was greenlit "too early", and was running ahead of what the base story had published. Examples of shows with these longer seasons include _One Piece_ , with show seasons that have run back to back continuously since 1999 and have variable lengths ranging from the shortest 12th season at 14 episodes to the longest so far 20th season at 197 episodes; _Dragon Ball Super_ , which also ran continuously with seasons corresponding to story arc and ranging from 9 to 55 episodes; and also _Naruto_ and the first 16 seasons of _Bleach_ .
      Lastly, some shows skip all of these distinctions and simply run continuously without any regard for cours, seasons, or arcs. _Ranma 1/2_ and _Full Metal Alchemist_ both ran this way.
      3) (This isn't an error, just an expansion): it is effectively routine to get a new opening and closing sequence and accompanying song with each show season, and sometimes more frequently if the show has shorter story arcs (like many light novel adaptations) or the producers just felt like changing it more often (e.g. _Chainsaw Man_ has a different ending theme for each of its 12 episodes) although not every show does this ( _Sazae-San_ , which has been in continuous production since 1969, has never changed its opening or ending theme).

    One thing about anime Ops that doesn't get explained is that the reason there are so many is because anime is handled in cours/seasons of usually around 12 episodes, so usually after around 12 or so episodes if the anime is longer (like FMA Brotherhood at 64 eps so 5 ops) they break up the cours by opening and ending songs. That is why you see some shows having over 10 or more ops just due to how many eps there are. If I could recommend a show from what ops you've seen I would say Demon Slayer or FMA Brotherhood are fantastic places to start, they are usually among my list of anime to introduce people to the medium. FMA Brotherhood being the one I recommend more just because it is already done, it really high quality with a GREAT ending probably one of the most complete in anime, the dub is fantastic for those who don't like subs, and it does a good job with introducing people to some tropes really well.

Although it's very faithful cover in terms of instrumentals it evokes totally different emotions. TK (original singer) is great, but I personally think Ado just suits the song better. She also made the opening for Spy x Family season 2 "Kura Kura" and songs for One Piece Film: Red.
    Lastly, I'd recommend checking out full versions of opening songs, they're usually better.

    Hey man, great reaction. Really loved your breakdown of the songs and how you reacted to each one.
    Couple of opening suggestions which I find musically really interesting: Erased op1 (op being opening in case you are unfamiliar), Jujutsu Kaisen op 3, Frieren op2, Chainsaw Man op1, One Piece op 26 and Call of the night op1. These are some of my personal favourites and I find them to be fairly popular (except for the last one). Keep it brother! 💪

    Some anime Openings I recommend:
    · Noragami Aragoto OP ("Kyouran Hey Kids" by THE ORAL CIGARETTES)
    · Heavenly Delusion OP ("Innocent Arrogance" by BiSH)
    · Kengan Ashura Season 2 OP ("RED" by SiM)
    · Apothecary Diaries OP ("be a flower" by Ryokuoushoku Shakai)
    · Chainsawman 2nd ED ("Time Left" by ZUTOMAYO) >>> this one is not an Opening but ending theme, and it's really good in terms of the instrumentation IMO

    Soul land opening is just ABSOLUTELY AMAZING -> "Brake the Cocoon" by Angela Zhang (this is one hell of an intro song)
    Log Horizon is also amazing -> "Database" by Man with a Mission
    and "Inuyashiki" with same band making the music - "Hero" by Man with a Mission

    anime series total lengths:
    OVAs/anime-films-movies: 1-4 episodes/OVAs
    very short: ~ 3-6 episodes
    short: ~ 12 episodes
    medium: ~ 24-30 episodes
    long: ~ 50-60 episodes
    very long: 100+ episodes
    a "season" can be the 'short' (~12 episodes) or 'medium' (~ 24-30 episodes), depending on the anime series' total length size and/or whether it's old (you see more of the 'medium' = ~ 24-30 episodes for their seasons, usually only having 2 seasons in total) vs new anime (usually broken up into the 'short' = ~ 12 episodes, for its seasons, though maybe the 'very long' anime series, it might have its seasons broken up into the medium = ~ 24-30 episodes)
    each "season" usually has its (a) own (new): op and ed
    (an episode is usually ~30 mins, but sometimes an episode is ~60 mins or ~15 mins)

      OVAs can be whatever episodes, some has 12 just like a regular season. Original Video Anime just means that it's not aired in TV. However, most of the time it's just a side story content so it usually has short episodes.

    5:13 the amount of openings normally depends on the number of episodes the anime has. Most anime have 12 episodes but ocasionally there's some with 24 or so and the opening changes on the midway point. Also every season has a different opening.

And if you like any opening I recommend listening to the full versions, ;) can't even count, how many different full versions I've got in my playlist, while Eve (also made a few opening and ending songs) is definitely my most favorite japanese singer and songwriter^^

    The artists create a full song for the anime and then it gets edited down to a minute twenty. But yes they do have a full length version.
    Usually, each season has one or two different openings depending on whether the season has one or two parts.

    Songs are generally made for the specific anime. Sometimes they have extended versions. Anime in general often change the opening and ending songs per season. Tokyo Ghoul was popular, but didn’t follow the source material. So it kinda went the wayside. Check out the underrated Noragami opening 1, Fire force first season opening and closing and blood blockade battlefront opening 1.

    most anime use a different opening and ending for each season. Longer shows might use a different opening for each story arc or split the story arc into multiple openings. Long running shows with progressing plot do this because the opening sequences tease relevant future plot points and characters and need to be updated as the story progresses.

    I would check out the Overlord openings, all 4 are really good and have great guitar parts. The most technical opening I've heard is the one from Land of the Lustrous. I'd watch it if you want to be blown away by insane rhythms and parts working together, but I don't find it as catchy as most others even if it is insanely impressive.

  • @cedricmichaud552

    You should react to the music video for the song Nameless Name by Togenashi Togeari, which an inserted song in an anime called Girls Band Cry, the music video is a different version of visuals than in the anime itself, but it is the full song contrary to in the anime. It's a girls band anime full CGI, so it's really different than a lot of anime which are mostly 2D animation.

    90% of anime intros are actual singles promoting both artist and anime so full songs exists on regular artist album in full version often promoting the anime, and anime almost always have artist promotion in square L brackets in roman alphabet so it is easier to catch in the credits plus often you get sponsor break in tv broadcast "kono bango ni wa ...." where sponsor is the record label providing the song, either sony music or pony canyon or someone else

    Yes, multiple openings is a common thing in anime. Usually every new season gets a new opening. Sometimes there are two openings per season to separate the story arcs. Arc separation via opening also applies to the series with a lot of episodes. For example, Naruto Shippuden has 500 episodes and 20 openings. However in these cases this can also be done simply to entertain viewers.
    As for recommendations:
    Vinland Saga, Cowboy bebop, Trigun (both original and Stampede) Jujutsu Kaisen, JoJo's bizarre adventures and Attack on titan

    Every anime usually has a new opening and ending every season, which is usually 11-13 episodes (1 cour).
    Some shows that are longer (2 cour) at 24-26 episodes end up having a new opening and ending on the next episode after the 1st cour to keep with the theme.
    On some rare occasions, some shows do this on 6 episodes / mid season if the story is progressing fast.
    @4:45 - the songs are usually full length songs, however for the shows they take like 1:30 - 2mins worth of it kind of like real tv shows only using riffs / chorus of songs.
    You can pretty much find out any song from an opening / ending and you will find a full length song by an actual metal / pop or other artist that has a music video like any other song.

    Uragiri no Yuuyake (Opening 1 of Durarara) Artist: Theatre Brook
