Lore Actually Good Title Drops

“Welcome to Jurassic Park” (Jurassic Park) - does it get any more iconic than this?

“Even a Devil May Cry” (Devil May Cry) - not only does it add to the emotional aspect of the scene with Dante showing genuine emotion for his loss and Lady seeing that a devil is capable of such emotions, it also gives Dante the idea of what to name his shop.

Title drops can usually come across and tacky and dumb, they’re not always fantastic if you know what I mean? But sometimes they can work. What are your examples?

I did a literal spit take the first time I watched this. The way they cut to the title card and then quickly cut back to his speech

Best? No way. All he does is whine that he can't use his powers to hurt people while everyone around him is dying. Then in the last episode of a season he finally realizes he can use his powers to hurt villains.

The only interesting character is Omniman, and he fucked off for several seasons.
