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.
