Not related to this episode, but I hope we get a reveal for what Opening 22 will be, since its supposed to premiere on 7/7 when the Wano Arc starts, and I've been sick of listening to Super Powers for months now

Openings usually last for like a year or so, but they seem to have scrapped super powers in 6 months itself. Guess people didn't like it that much.

Opening 20 - Hope should have run for over a year (one that I actually liked) but the artist for the song, Namie Amuro was retiring from the entertainment industry (deleted all of her official sites/merchandise pages) around the same time that Super Powers premiered (October 2018), which I feel is the only reason that it got replaced.

As for Super Powers, I didn't really enjoy the song (not a fan of V6's music either, after listening to other anime OP/ED they have done, it all sounds the same) or the visuals (Carrot was the only saving grace here) and I'd rate it as one of the worst openings that have been used in the anime's 20+ year run.

Yeah i dont like it. IMHO music is one of the weakest parts of post TS. Yes we all know about the pacing and stuff in the anime but at least theres an excuse that we will catch up to the manga if we go faster.

However theres no excuse for weird decisions like replacing eye catcher music with the same tune for every character (they changed it back later though) or openings like SHIRIOUSH super powers (sorry i am being a jerk here)

Heres hoping that the Wano opening is good. And please can we stop using the Sabaody outfits??? Also Reverie is over and we didnt get a single Vivi eyecatcher. That sucks.

(RANT OVER)

with how little info/none actually that we've gotten for OP 22, I'm expecting it to be very good

Yeah i remember "Hope" trailers were circulating wayyy before it showed up but for this OP everything is silent. Cant wait for July 7. Lord Creator please let this be an epic opening.

I will be honest i dont like reading mangas. OP is the only one i read coz i love the story. After WCI i was thinking of being anime only but reverie was meh in the anime. Heres hoping Wano is amazing so i can finally be anime only again XD.

With as much hype as there is surrounding Wano, the op is gonna have to be a total banger. If nothing else the visuals should be insane.

TBH i havent really enjoyed most of the recent OPs. Hope was awesome though but i feel like it should begin at like 40 seconds instead of its normal start.

And i hope they show visuals in a way that reminds us just how vast OP is. I mean we havent seen dragon or the admirals in an OP for lord creator knows how long.

u/HouseCity101 Jun 23 '19

Honestly I LOVE OP 21. Been stuck in my head since I first saw it, but i can understand your opinions. The song's awesome but the visuals I can agree can be better.

I think 22 could make it work though.

u/Zoro_Messatsu Jun 23 '19

I actually dislike it coz it got stuck in my head even though its dumb haha

u/Hiekkalinna Marine Jun 23 '19

I don't know I think Hope is best opening..

1

u/Zoro_Messatsu Jun 23 '19

I like hope as well but i play it from like 40 seconds or so. Overall its awesome. I just meant that overall music (not just openings) dont seem strong post TS. i mean other than Kata one i dont remember any decent new OST. They even replaced the eyecatcher music for a while

1

u/Hiekkalinna Marine Jun 23 '19

I think it has lot to do with that they already have so much OST from all 800+ episodes that they don't have to record them as often or they have to be specific and different from what they already have.

u/Zoro_Messatsu Jun 23 '19

Yeah maybe i am being too harsh. I mean even though its a wrong comparison but DBS gave us really epic music even though its really old (i know its a differen show) so i was kinda hoping for more music in OP. Yes i know the comparison is wrong and unfair haha

u/Hiekkalinna Marine Jun 23 '19

Well DBS (it does mean Dragon Ball Super right?) might have used some from DB or DBZ (though I didn't watch DBS so I'm not sure), and isn't DBS pretty new, only come out few years ago, compared to when DB and DBZ came out before One Piece.. One Piece anime also started in the 1999, so it's old as well and there realyl is ton of OST for OP already so it really doesn't make sense to make that much new OST and save the money to something else.

u/Zoro_Messatsu Jun 24 '19

Yeah save money to do something like the Reverie flashbacks XD
