Honestly, I'd been wondering if there were any updates concerning Joey's main channel, since I don't recall seeing any new uploads on that channel, and a lot more on the secondary channel?
I agree, Unravel is one of the very few songs and just music in general that stays good and gets even better as I grow up. First time listening to it, I was in 5th grade, and it blew my mind because how impactful and different it is from other ops. To this very moment, it still slaps
Not a massive Kenshi Yonezu fan, just occasionally listened to some of his hit songs but man Kick Back is a banger for sure. The way how the bass and guitar and the song in general sounds just makes it so addictive to me.
I honestly think that Kenshi Yonezu was a great artist to pick for the Chainsaw Man OP, like his work with songs like Mad Head Love shows how he both has the hard hitting nature to match Chainsaw Man but also the weirdness that fits Tatsuki Fujimoto
(edit: minor spoilers for one of the early episodes of s1) This. We're talking about a character who, in the first couple episodes, literally risks his life just to feel a boob. The music doesn't just slap, but fits far better than it's being treated.
Maximum the Hormone probably fits CSM better, but Kenshi Yonezu’s Kick Back is the safer choice when it comes to finding something that appeals to a large general audience.
I'd say the CSM opening just gets even better the more you listen to it. The first time I listened to it I thought it was alright, but the more I listened to it, the more I fell in love with it.
I like how people like to call Lisa's songs overrated because it's always being used as an opening to a popular anime, but don't realize the key connection to those popular openings is Lisa herself. She's one of the most talented singers in the industry, only behind Aimer in my opinion. Girl knows how make a song have a long and lasting impact on your life.
@@vegancardigan IMO, her best work is "catch the moment". I don't know why or how, but it made me tear up. I still don't understand how it happened, but I love that song so much!!
I don't know how people think that trash op is underrated , its so trash that it makes the second part of the series even worse , first op is better in literally evrey way
@@kingdoom5022 You mean the first opening with a generic song with generic visuals and elementary level symbolism? Nah, second opening is better in every way.
People literally only hate it because "Screamo bad" despite how perfectly it captures the tone of the series and Light's mental state. The art is also a hundred times better in terms of symbolism and how characters are presented.
The channel named ‘The Anime Man’ gets the trivial stuff uploaded to it. The channel named ‘Joey’ gets the anime stuff uploaded to it. Perfect as all things should be
I'm not really a Kenshi Yonezu fan, but I gotta sat that the instrumental department of the opening itself is quite outstanding. It's a clever composition on many layers of depth, both rhytmically engaging and innovative when referring to the uses of the modulation to pursue a narration within the song itself. Maybe I'm being a little bit bias, albeit I'd probably love this music composition even if not associated to such a popular and hyped piece of media.
Yap, incredible mixing and banger use of bass/guitar/drums, and don't get me started on all the little details in with the organ, etc. Massive L take from Joey. My only complaint of it is not using the entire song and having a 3 minute long op.... Massive, massive L Joey... At least he won the prize of "worst take" in the video
Yeah, people only hate it because it's not "heavy" (sad to hear Joey's also of this opinion). But it's better than pretty much any of the endings so far. It's very playful musically and lyrically and radiates Denji energy all over the place. In fact I believe it's an underrated song.
@@ChemyNoSurfea yea it has the same feeling to me as the animation, it's not going hard or anything but it's creative, crazy, showing the main feeling of Chainsaw man besides the grim parts
for me personally, it does felt CSM could have a harder opening song, but Kenshi Yonezu captures Denji's desire and desperation quite perfectly. And the song has a messy vibe to it, which captures quite a lot of the characters or story in the anime, but that's just me
I feel like the massive hype about it is just Norma shounen stuff. It's a decent op, but doesn't do anything transformative with deeper meanings like Clannad, Steins Gate, Sangatsu no Lion, or Code Geass op 5. I'd probably give it a 7/10, next to A Place Further than the Universe. Both capture the essence of their shows, but don't do much beyond that. What it does with movie references is cool, but also not that transformative to the story
@@seeking4948 then explain why. If you think it's a bop then sure, whatever. But to claim it to add anything to the narrative or transform the story would just be completely wrong
Kick Back really grew on me. At first I didn't like it as much. Now I don't skip it anymore at all. If we're talking about just the song itself this is true, because the lyrics are quite ingenious and idk it just grew on me. I actually think it's a really clever move to have chosen this op for the anime. But man the visuals and layers in the actual op are on another level. I gained so much respect after I saw Mother's basement video on it.
Same tbh, at first i agreed with Joey. After listening to it some more, i realized it actually is pretty smart to use this. As unlike how people expect from the surface for it to be just badass rock and denji cutting some shit. It actually is much chaotic showing both sides of Denji. Just like the show itself
I enjoyed hearing your take on What's Up People. I hate that kind of music, but thinking about it in the context of the animation and the series as a whole it definitely fits the series well. There's a lot of what can potentially go into making a great opening song and accompanying animation.
The first times that i listen to it, i didnt like it because of the Auto tune, but when i reach the middle of the series i like it so much that i putt in my phone as ring tone
I honestly am not a big fan of metal music, but FaLiLV spoke to me. Let me hear introduced me to my favorite metal band(yes I know they are part of the electronicore genre). The contrast between So's very digital vocals to Minami's screams or unclean vocals are just sooo fucking good all the while the other band members are popping off. Also the way they just switch genres or styles mid-song is just soooo good. The transitions are insane especially in Let me hear. Anyway sorry for the long spiel but I just really love that band and I think they make amazing songs(especially The Demon Called Careless).
Personally, felt like Kenshi Yonezu was a perfect fit for chainsaw man. He’s such a chaotic character and is you watch his music videos, he resonates Denji energy. Ill admit I’m little bit of a yonezu stan, but I think the opening is perfect.
I honestly just want to see his opinion on the 3rd ending of CSM considering his high high praise for Maximum the Hormone and how he wishes they sung the opening
Was just about to comment that. People should really stay for the csm eds, they are so good. They give exactly csm vibes every time. Kinda sad to think about what the people are missing out on. And as a total Maximum the hormone stan, i recognized them immediately. Loosing my brain over this shit. Sounds so good
I loved blood circulation WAAAAY over silhouette. For some reason the opening gives me a slight sense of dread exactly what Naruto and co were feeling at that moment in the anime(with kaguya being revealed) and i loved how the opening shifted from a sense of dread to a sense of hope in such seamless fashion. It is SO under rated
I actually love the chainsaw man opening, like at first I was like “oh,. This is it?” But now a bit into the series I’m loving it, the visuals, the song.. everything
Honestly I know people were expecting some heavy metal, screamo type music for CSM’s opening but I was always expecting something more electronic hip hop or techno etc. The style they went for just fits so perfectly with CSM imo and I can’t really explain why.
I would love to see a video about the best *music* in anime. Not just openings or endings, but songs within a show. For example, Nana, Angel Beats, Your Lie in April, or my personal favorite: the song in Given season 1. sooo good
In my opinion Fear and Loathing and Las Vegas is an amazing band and the vocoder (not auto-tune) works great, that's what makes them what they are. The screamer who also is the keyboardist hits hard. They mix different genres together and I think it works amazingly
I have to say, the chainsaw man opening doesn’t deserve this much hate. The song describes Denji’s desire to get close to Makima very well. His voice is amazing and the meaning behind the song is deeper than most people thought.
Yh fr it's just MTH fans whining that the opening wasn't metal enough. As if dark, gritty metal fits the show better than Kick Back. The only thing MTH could offer is the chaos of the show, but istg if ED 3 was the OP I'd skip it every damn episode - ED 3 is the most overrated piece of garbage I've heard in some time (though I will say it's great until they switch genre).
No one talks about the Monogatari EDs. Kimi no Shirakami Monogatari is probably the greatest ed of all time and Shiori is ClariS’ most underrated song.
hot take maybe? music-wise i think the song is fantastic but visually? the kaleidoscope gimmick is over-used in the opening and makes for a pretty boring visual. it's nice to watch the first time, but then i got bored of seeing it lol
There are soo few that talk about songs done by egoist. The band was literally formed in anime guilty crown but became a real band. They also made psycho-pass opening and ending songs
Fun fact about SAO op1: Years ago, when I didn't know this anime existed, I was listening to shiz on soundcloud and I heard the english version by K0y0mi that someone illegally uploaded there. It was so extremely good it actually made my heart flutter. So I looked up the song and found Sao. Completely expecting it to be a romance anime where the couple help each other to go through hardships, I thoroughly enjoyed the Eincrad arc. We don't talk about the later arcs.
I think My War is a great song for an opening. It definitely is the proper song choice to show how different the season is from the past ones. It’s just that the visuals could’ve been better.
Colors is my favorite too. I stopped watching anime back in '10 and FMAB was my last watched anime. So when I heard Colors, it brought me back and I started watching anime again. I'm still grateful to FLOW for producing this beauty.
5:32 i think the statement works both ways A good anime opening can easily carry the show, or at least make it known; and a good anime can make the openings known Its a symbiotic relationship Artists boost the anime, the anime boosts the artists
So glad that Joey LOVES the second SAO opening, I like Eir Aoi's voice and definitely would jam out to the songs she sings! I probably would adore her more if I watched the anime they were associated with.
Rare Joey L for Unravel and CSM OP take. CSM quiet moment are as good as the chaotic moment, which is why going all in with band like MTH might not be the best choice for the OP which job is to represent the entire story. And also why MTH song work perfectly as the ED3 that represent that chaotic episode 3.
With Chainsaw Man, I was in the same boat as you Joey where I didn't really like the OP, but now, by episode 6, I think it bloody slaps, so maybe you just need to give it a couple more weeks. It was kinda like when I heard "My War" the first time and was like "what the f*ck is this?", but after each week it slowly grew on me and now its one of my favourites.
honestly wished they got sigure instead of TK for the chainsaw man ed but i guess we should be grateful they get any representation in any form of media at all, and hopefully the song lives up to the expectations
As a metal guitarist, I spent 10 mins rewinding "What's up people" every time I saw an episode of DN. Reminds me a lot of Chopsuey with all the craziness going on. Literally a headbanger. 🔥
I don't think I have ever agreed so much with your music takes as much as in this video. I thought for the longest time that you do consider TK's TG opening overrated but you have gone the extra mile to state the difference between overrated and overplayed. The chainsawman OP has grown on me, I was of the same opinion that Maximum should have been the artists to make the OP 100% but after some episodes I have realised they wanted to tone the show down, make it more atmospheric instead of batshit crazy, so I get why they didn't wanna play into it with the op too. The ED by Maximum was great tho xD all of these ED's go right into the playlist xD
The composition for unravel is so wonderful. I'm obviously biased because I've never experienced it in isolation, but genuinely the complexity of the song and the way it meshes orchestra and LTS' unique 'acoustic/metallic screamo' sound (I can't find a better way to put it) is just amazing. Definitely overplayed for most ears, but I can listen to it infinite times and notice new stuff in the song because it's so heavily layered. Also on the CSM op, I think it's just too vanilla of a song. I'd expected something more avant garde, weird and chaotic. I love how in the trailers for CSM they used the chainsaw sound as an instrument, and I was hoping they'd gone for something more in that direction. It was just a bit of a disappointment.
I think Unravel also is a „You love it or you hate it“ anime OP. I dont know if its just not my style but since the first time I heard it, I just god damn hated that opening. I hated the slow opening and then the loud yell singing. Its just not for me. And then we add the overplaying part. Wether you like the anime or not, I personally love the Fire Force Opening atm. Its just fun and upbeat. Probably nothing special but its something I can listen to more than once.
The thing you said about Naruto opening 2 being the peak, made my day - YES, It absolutely is, every bit of it! I also think that Haruka Kanata portrays the exact feeling one would expect going into Naruto
My War is one of my favourite OPs. I love the orchestral, dark sound. Also it feels like the complete opposite vibe to shinzou wo sasageyo, both the visuals and music
Can't believe Joey doesn't really like Kenshi Yonezu's music. I've been following his music since he was making it under the name Hachi, and he has so many good songs from that time and now. His song Shinigami is SO GOOD!
But to be fair "kick back" was pretty average for his standards... I'd argue the first ending song "chainsaw blood" is way better...I mean I feel in love with that song over the op when I first heard them
I hope to see Chainsaw man op 2 to be more darker heavier as the story become more gorish and complex, but for the first "fun" part I think it fits well
The thing about Aot Final op is that it is a completely different perspective and almost another show entirely. It's no longer about them over coming the titans, "freedom", glory, etc but now it's the tipping point to the islanders and Yeagerist causing death and destruction on the rest of the world, in the name of their own freedom.
Two anime openings I think are surprisingly under mentioned when people talk about good openings are Papermoon from Soul Eater and the High School of the Dead OP.
@@kingdoom5022 Damn that would sound like a brutal diss to someone not familiar with the Monogatari series. But I have to agree. I'd put these OP/EDs above Platinum Disco: Sugar Sweet Nightmare Ren'ai Circulation Kimi ni Shiranai Monogatari Marshmallow Justice Naisho no Hanashi Perfect Slumbers Mousou Express White Lies Snowdrop Mathemagics Mein Schatz Étoile et Toi Though you can argue that White Lies, Mein Schatz and Étoile et Toi are too different to compare, which would elevate it from my #13 to #10. So just _barely_ but it makes the list
@@hundvd_7 I mean, at this point, arguing over which Monogatari songs are the best is like trying to rank Beethoven's symphonies. Even the worst one is great. It's really in the details of personal taste and I don't really see the point in dissing each other. I'm like "I prefer this one. Oh you prefer that one? Yeah, that's respectable."
Why does everybody do the equation Opening = Song ? 😥 I rarely see the visual get talked about and they're just as important (if not more, depending on the opening itself)
I would disagree about Chainsaw Man's opening; Kick Back is pretty good for me. While I agree that Maximum the Hormone would be a great fit to CSM, I think it's already great that not only did they have an ending theme on CSM, they also have their song incorporated into the actual show sometimes. *I think that's more than enough to put MtH into CSM's sound*
I loved the Psycho Pass OP, still listen to this song, same to unravel. I totally recommend the "First Take version" its chefs kiss. Also, please give a try to more of their songs, they have a lot of nice ones like "flower" or "Monster" and many more!
18:45 hell yeah the OGs know..."haruka kanata" was what made Naruto ops in it's early days...even though my favourite is the 5th one "seishun kyoushoukyoku"
In terms of KICK BACK, I am quite the Yonezu fan boy and it is easily my favorite OP of the year, but I will say it was definitely a bit of a business decision, like getting the biggest artist in Japan for the OP of the most anticipated Shonen anime in recent memory, so maybe had CSM not been as popular, Maximum the Hormone or SiM would’ve been chosen. With that said it also seems like a lot of passion was put into it with Yonezu and Daiki Tsuneta being huge fans of the manga and all the details they put into the song itself representing CSM. Also with the second half of the story being even crazier than the first half, I think it’s fitting that they leave a band like MtH, SiM or King Gnu for season 2. To each their own though
The Chainsaw Man'OP, I think, may not be as banging, but it addresses youth (got melody that tells the story), got the brisk feeling (the two who don't care), and the lyrics that summarise the perspective of Kenji, which I feel it fits the meaning of the anime pretty well.
As a Silhouette enthusiast, I would like to point out my reasonings as to why it's better than Haruka Kanata. Firstly, I believe that an opening is like a math equation. You add in both the visuals and the music to determine if you like it or not. Silhouette has the superior visuals. The scene of a young Naruto growing up whilst he runs in the battle field still gives me chills till this day. We've seen that boy grow up into the ninja that he was when that opening released. Secondly, I think that Silhouette fit the visuals perfectly. The opening was about the journey of the four main characters we were following: Naruto, Sasuke, Madara, and Obito. It didn't need a hard hitting song like Haruka Kanata. The angelic tone of the vocalist of Silhouette set the tone for the opening. It's kinda like Red Swan in Attack on Titan. Instead of having a banger like the first couple of openings, they chose to slow it down and hit you in the feels instead of your ear drums.
Hey Joey, I don't if this was discussed before, but it would be really cool to find out more about HOW Anime Openings are chosen. Does the studio buy the rights to use the song? Do the rights holders line up and pay to be featured in Animes? Are some songs actively commissioned? Thanks for considering my topic =)
A video about personal ancestry on The Anime Man channel, and a episode of Let's Fight on the Joey channel? I think there might have been a mistake. lol
That dude is nuts.... The Evangelion opening, almost single handedly, planted the seed of appreciation of the Japanese language and it's beauty, in my young mind... This seed, put me on the path I am on today where my Japanese level is almost N3 level, and I'm studying every day out of pure passion and a deep spiritual appreciation of the language. He deserves the L + Ratio... 110%
When it comes to Chainsaw Man. I think Kick Back was a good song, but the artist I would've wanted to sing the OP is TK from Ling tosite sigure. I know I'm a massive fan of his and that the ED he made was fire, but I think he would've been better for the OP.
This is definitely an unpopular take but I think the CSM opening is Kenshi's best song (and the best anime op of the year ofc). His voice fits the feel so well imo and the song is really unique as well. I also like the first ending by Vaundy but it sounds a lot more generic. Also wtf the Alfheim op is mid asf
I introduced my friend to Death Note, and I can clearly remember his first time hearing that 2nd OP by Maximum the Hormone and letting out a pleasantly surprised "OHH! Shit's getting real." Hearing them again for that Chainsaw Man ED lit me up. All their music makes me want to rage in the pit
In my personal opinion, CSM Op is good enough, and especially because we actually did get a maximum the hormone song for one of the endings, which is actually exactly what I imagined Chainsaw man's OP to be like. It more than makes up for it that we get SO many different endings, everyone can have their favorite song.
I agree with many things you said, like Tank!/Gun's & Roses, and also what you said about Haruka Kanata and Silhouette. And who could ever hate Flyers? Geez.
If I had twitter and joined on this I would have said blue bird (naruto) was up there, haven't heard silhouette. I would have also mentioned GO!!! as an underappreciated naruto opening, but you joey had the right opinion. Haruka kanata is probably the best naruto opening. Personally I always thought that bakuman had the better "blue bird" opening. Talking underappreciated series right there. And I never watched evangelion, but Cruel angel's thesis FUCKING SLAPS, it's SO GOOD. Otherwise I think giving just a very small clip of the most known part would be helpful for videos like these where you discuss anime openings/endings would help quite a few people who aren't as familiar with all the series being discussed.
Can't believe Joey has read monogatari and thinks Nadeko is the worst character D: I'm still expecting the Off Season adaptation to see everyone start loving Nadeko after watching Nademonogatari 😌
While i enjoy kick back, I actually think the endings they use for chainsaw man are the real star of the show (music wise) Chainsaw blood by vaundy is such a good song and is what I invision when I think about chainsaw man. Just my opinion though the whole selection of songs for this anime overall is amazing.
at the very least it’s an excuse to hear Flyers 12 times but I would definitely recommend checking it out if you’re in the mood for a fun existential crisis
I’m 17mins in and surprisingly haven’t seen any Kuroshitsuji opening mentioned. I was honestly expecting at least Monochrome Kiss. (And I’m saying this as a Kuroshitsuji fan too.) Also… jeezus Joey just threw me back so hard by mentioning Brokencyde. (I saw them live at one point too. 💀)
I looked up the parasyte opening, and it immediately pissed me off because it reminded me of the HunterxHunter ending (just awake, I looked it up😅).. . Also, HunterxHunter's second ending almost made me cry because, in my view and taste of music, there was many perfect opportunities for a heavy double kick drum section while the singer is doing his thing.
Chaisawman's Opening is great. Kick Back got so many layers put into it making it really fun to sit down and just listen to it quietly. It is a really great song man. But Joey is correct when saying that they could have picked a better band to suit the csm vibe. I personally think King Gnu is perfect for Chainsawman
I can 100% understand and respect your opinion on the CSM opening, but the song is a banger for me, I love Kick Back lol Also, loved watching this series back when you did it on the main channel, happy to see more of it!
I'm so so so happy that you mentioned "Platinum Disco" cause I always didn't understand why noone talked about it. I thought maybe I was weird cause the opening slaps and is a total vibe........nice
The CSM opening song has so many intracicies and depth to it. If you sit and listen to the song with your eyes closed, listed to the song itself and the instrument placements etc... It's actualy insanely intricate.
i started laughing so hard when you mentioned brokencyde. my childhood lmao and bro, people that say naruto openings are overrated just dont like music. haruka kanata, diver, sign, go, etc. there are a lot of bangers in naruto/naruto shippuden openings. i bet its the same people that says Whats Up People is bad
And I was expecting "Devil in your heart" by SiM as an opening for CSM, they made Rumbling, I was disappointed they didn't choose it. it fits CSM so well.
I like that the anime stuff is now appearing on this channel, while the trivial stuff is appearing on your main channel
i was just thinking about that lmao
kinda funny when the main channel is the one called the anime man
Because anime on youtube = terminated speedrun.
Honestly, I'd been wondering if there were any updates concerning Joey's main channel,

If the channel names were flipped it would make a lot more sense lol

There's some problem if you skipped it in the first place
I love how it's bass focus that's probably why.
I enjoyed hearing your take on What's Up People. I hate that kind of music, but thinking about it in the context of the animation and the series as a whole it definitely fits the series well. There's a lot of what can potentially go into making a great opening song and accompanying animation.
Bro it’s like one of the best Nu Metal songs. It’s crazy
As much i love parasyte, I genuinely feel “Let me hear” Is super good, Its just fits with the show.
massive W
Idk if you would be into this or not but I love that song too, and the piano cover by Animenz is phenomenal.
The first times that i listen to it, i didnt like it because of the Auto tune, but when i reach the middle of the series i like it so much that i putt in my phone as ring tone
Yup Let me hear without autotune slap harder tho... Listen to the Victor borba cover, it's perfect for me.
I honestly am not a big fan of metal music, but FaLiLV spoke to me. Let me hear introduced me to my favorite metal band(yes I know they are part of the electronicore genre). The contrast between So's very digital vocals to Minami's screams or unclean vocals are just sooo fucking good all the while the other band members are popping off. Also the way they just switch genres or styles mid-song is just soooo good. The transitions are insane especially in Let me hear. Anyway sorry for the long spiel but I just really love that band and I think they make amazing songs(especially The Demon Called Careless).
Personally, felt like Kenshi Yonezu was a perfect fit for chainsaw man. He’s such a chaotic character and is you watch his music videos, he resonates Denji energy. Ill admit I’m little bit of a yonezu stan, but I think the opening is perfect.
I honestly just want to see his opinion on the 3rd ending of CSM considering his high high praise for Maximum the Hormone and how he wishes they sung the opening
Me too I thought Joey was going to mention the third ending.
@@jmct7462 to be fair full version isnt out ig and apparently its gonna be an insert song too damn i wanna hear the full its my favorite one so far
yeah I was expecting him to mention it, since he said he had watched the first three episodes lmao
@@eriasuanimation Perhaps they will talk about it on trash taste someday lol
Was just about to comment that. People should really stay for the csm eds, they are so good. They give exactly csm vibes every time. Kinda sad to think about what the people are missing out on. And as a total Maximum the hormone stan, i recognized them immediately. Loosing my brain over this shit. Sounds so good
I loved blood circulation WAAAAY over silhouette. For some reason the opening gives me a slight sense of dread exactly what Naruto and co were feeling at that moment in the anime(with kaguya being revealed) and i loved how the opening shifted from a sense of dread to a sense of hope in such seamless fashion. It is SO under rated
I think silhouette is one of the most overrated openings of all time. Imo heroe's comeback (?), blue bird, and sign are better.
@@4rl0ng Sign is the best hands down. Hero’s comeback also underrated
I actually love the chainsaw man opening, like at first I was like “oh,. This is it?” But now a bit into the series I’m loving it, the visuals, the song.. everything
Honestly I know people were expecting some heavy metal, screamo type music for CSM’s opening but I was always expecting something more electronic hip hop or techno etc. The style they went for just fits so perfectly with CSM imo and I can’t really explain why.
4:19 Joey doing his Chris Broad impersonation 🤣
I would love to see a video about the best *music* in anime. Not just openings or endings, but songs within a show. For example, Nana, Angel Beats, Your Lie in April, or my personal favorite: the song in Given season 1. sooo good
In my opinion Fear and Loathing and Las Vegas is an amazing band and the vocoder (not auto-tune) works great, that's what makes them what they are. The screamer who also is the keyboardist hits hard. They mix different genres together and I think it works amazingly
they don't use vocaloid. they have a vocalist
"Just awake" from hxh was awesome man, but i get why ppl dislike that autotune voice.
It is autotune
@@nonsmarts660 You're right, I've just changed my comment to vocoder instead of vocaloid. Been confusing the two for a minute lol
I love the second netflix baki opening
Unravel isn't overrated it's just been meme'd to death.
I have to say, the chainsaw man opening doesn’t deserve this much hate. The song describes Denji’s desire to get close to Makima very well. His voice is amazing and the meaning behind the song is deeper than most people thought.
I like it more every time I listen to it
I’m addicted to KICK BACK
I really like it and the 2nd ending is straight heat
It's literally one of my favourite anime openings along with What's Up People, Cruel Angels Thesis and The Rumbling.
Yh fr it's just MTH fans whining that the opening wasn't metal enough. As if dark, gritty metal fits the show better than Kick Back. The only thing MTH could offer is the chaos of the show, but istg if ED 3 was the OP I'd skip it every damn episode - ED 3 is the most overrated piece of garbage I've heard in some time (though I will say it's great until they switch genre).
For CSM openning song, I would recommend "Alex Moukala Music" 's breakdown of the song. He sold me on how well it fits the opening, and Fujimoto.
4:19 Joey just turned into Chris for a second there.
I'm so glad to see some love for Staple Staple. Even among the passionate group that makes up Monogatari fans, I never see anyone talking about it
no one talks about it because its a common knowledge. . . probably
I’m more of a Sugar Sweet Nightmare fan.
Wait Staple Stable is underrated? I thought its has like top 3 most popular monogatari OP*
No one talks about the Monogatari EDs. Kimi no Shirakami Monogatari is probably the greatest ed of all time and Shiori is ClariS’ most underrated song.
Kiznaiver Opening is undoubtably one of the best openings ever made, visually and music-wise. BOOM BOOM SATELLITES are amazing.
Absolutely agree!
Very true
Agreed! It's probably my favorite opening ever.
hot take maybe? music-wise i think the song is fantastic but visually? the kaleidoscope gimmick is over-used in the opening and makes for a pretty boring visual. it's nice to watch the first time, but then i got bored of seeing it lol
@@Jovviial nah not a hot take I think cuz I agree but the song is crazy good
There are soo few that talk about songs done by egoist. The band was literally formed in anime guilty crown but became a real band. They also made psycho-pass opening and ending songs
Fun fact about SAO op1: Years ago, when I didn't know this anime existed, I was listening to shiz on soundcloud and I heard the english version by K0y0mi that someone illegally uploaded there. It was so extremely good it actually made my heart flutter. So I looked up the song and found Sao. Completely expecting it to be a romance anime where the couple help each other to go through hardships, I thoroughly enjoyed the Eincrad arc. We don't talk about the later arcs.
I think My War is a great song for an opening. It definitely is the proper song choice to show how different the season is from the past ones. It’s just that the visuals could’ve been better.
Thank you, w take.
I didn’t mind the visuals honestly, the bit where the soldiers are marching goes hard
Colors by FLOW, and Sincerely by TRUE are my two favorite openings of all time😌
Colors is my favorite too. I stopped watching anime back in '10 and FMAB was my last watched anime. So when I heard Colors, it brought me back and I started watching anime again. I'm still grateful to FLOW for producing this beauty.
Sincerely is sooo good & emotional, I honestly wish it got as much attention as Violet Evergarden's ending.
@@heckinsnek8724 imo "Sincerely" is great as a 90-second OP but as a full song it flops hard.
Cruel Angel's Thesis, Haruka Kanata, Asterisk and Crossing Field have been successfully defended. 10/10 video my soul is satisfied.
5:32 i think the statement works both ways
A good anime opening can easily carry the show, or at least make it known; and a good anime can make the openings known
Its a symbiotic relationship
Artists boost the anime, the anime boosts the artists
So glad that Joey LOVES the second SAO opening, I like Eir Aoi's voice and definitely would jam out to the songs she sings! I probably would adore her more if I watched the anime they were associated with.
Rare Joey L for Unravel and CSM OP take.
CSM quiet moment are as good as the chaotic moment, which is why going all in with band like MTH might not be the best choice for the OP which job is to represent the entire story. And also why MTH song work perfectly as the ED3 that represent that chaotic episode 3.
Rare Joey L?
Just watch trash taste to hear how many L takes he has in anime LMAO...at the end of the day he's a normal dude
he's gonna fall back and say its good after the anime is over
@@erenhi Joey never does that tbh
@@marcioamaral7511 What are the L takes? lmao.
@@erenhi Nah lol. A generic pop op will always remain bad.
With Chainsaw Man, I was in the same boat as you Joey where I didn't really like the OP, but now, by episode 6, I think it bloody slaps, so maybe you just need to give it a couple more weeks. It was kinda like when I heard "My War" the first time and was like "what the f*ck is this?", but after each week it slowly grew on me and now its one of my favourites.
I am 100% with you
Nice to see Chris making guest appearances on your show so often these days 😂
I was listening to this video podcast style and when I heard Joey’s impression I thought Chris made an appearance 😂
I feel like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is similar to alcohol and coffee. Its an acquired taste that once you learn to enjoy it you really enjoy it
Yessss more Ling Tosite Sigure representation! Also at least Maximum the Hormone did an ending song for Chainsaw Man
honestly wished they got sigure instead of TK for the chainsaw man ed but i guess we should be grateful they get any representation in any form of media at all, and hopefully the song lives up to the expectations
As a metal guitarist, I spent 10 mins rewinding "What's up people" every time I saw an episode of DN. Reminds me a lot of Chopsuey with all the craziness going on. Literally a headbanger. 🔥
I don't think I have ever agreed so much with your music takes as much as in this video. I thought for the longest time that you do consider TK's TG opening overrated but you have gone the extra mile to state the difference between overrated and overplayed. The chainsawman OP has grown on me, I was of the same opinion that Maximum should have been the artists to make the OP 100% but after some episodes I have realised they wanted to tone the show down, make it more atmospheric instead of batshit crazy, so I get why they didn't wanna play into it with the op too. The ED by Maximum was great tho xD all of these ED's go right into the playlist xD
funny to see you singing an intro for Let's Fight, I'm glad to seee this series back!
The composition for unravel is so wonderful. I'm obviously biased because I've never experienced it in isolation, but genuinely the complexity of the song and the way it meshes orchestra and LTS' unique 'acoustic/metallic screamo' sound (I can't find a better way to put it) is just amazing. Definitely overplayed for most ears, but I can listen to it infinite times and notice new stuff in the song because it's so heavily layered.
Also on the CSM op, I think it's just too vanilla of a song. I'd expected something more avant garde, weird and chaotic. I love how in the trailers for CSM they used the chainsaw sound as an instrument, and I was hoping they'd gone for something more in that direction. It was just a bit of a disappointment.
I think Unravel also is a „You love it or you hate it“ anime OP.
I dont know if its just not my style but since the first time I heard it, I just god damn hated that opening. I hated the slow opening and then the loud yell singing. Its just not for me. And then we add the overplaying part.
Wether you like the anime or not, I personally love the Fire Force Opening atm. Its just fun and upbeat. Probably nothing special but its something I can listen to more than once.
The thing you said about Naruto opening 2 being the peak, made my day - YES, It absolutely is, every bit of it! I also think that Haruka Kanata portrays the exact feeling one would expect going into Naruto
My War is one of my favourite OPs. I love the orchestral, dark sound. Also it feels like the complete opposite vibe to shinzou wo sasageyo, both the visuals and music
YES MY WAR is awesome
My War is incredibly overrated in my opinion, and is my least favorite AOT opening.
@@mrrickstur honestly i feel like its underrated. Might just be me tho
@@althebeastisbay hmm, I think there are a lot of others who feel that way as well. To each their own though 👌
Oh man and here I thought Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas perfected what Brokencyde tried to do lol, I love the auto tune and screaming!
Can't believe Joey doesn't really like Kenshi Yonezu's music. I've been following his music since he was making it under the name Hachi, and he has so many good songs from that time and now. His song Shinigami is SO GOOD!
Cause Kenshi Yonezu is a generic pop funk singer. All his songs and ops are the same, they are used in every romcom and shonen nowadays for no reason.
But to be fair "kick back" was pretty average for his standards... I'd argue the first ending song "chainsaw blood" is way better...I mean I feel in love with that song over the op when I first heard them
@@c.k.1933 what do you mean he's barely in any anime
I hope to see Chainsaw man op 2 to be more darker heavier as the story become more gorish and complex, but for the first "fun" part I think it fits well
The thing about Aot Final op is that it is a completely different perspective and almost another show entirely. It's no longer about them over coming the titans, "freedom", glory, etc but now it's the tipping point to the islanders and Yeagerist causing death and destruction on the rest of the world, in the name of their own freedom.
Two anime openings I think are surprisingly under mentioned when people talk about good openings are Papermoon from Soul Eater and the High School of the Dead OP.
That Platinum Disco take made me respect this man yet so much more
Eh its overrated , it isn't even top 10 songs in the show
@@kingdoom5022 wrong opinion
@@kingdoom5022 Damn that would sound like a brutal diss to someone not familiar with the Monogatari series.
But I have to agree. I'd put these OP/EDs above Platinum Disco:
Sugar Sweet Nightmare
Ren'ai Circulation
Kimi ni Shiranai Monogatari
Marshmallow Justice
Naisho no Hanashi
Perfect Slumbers
Mousou Express
White Lies
Snowdrop
Mathemagics
Mein Schatz
Étoile et Toi
Though you can argue that White Lies, Mein Schatz and Étoile et Toi are too different to compare, which would elevate it from my #13 to #10.
So just _barely_ but it makes the list
@@hundvd_7 I mean, at this point, arguing over which Monogatari songs are the best is like trying to rank Beethoven's symphonies. Even the worst one is great. It's really in the details of personal taste and I don't really see the point in dissing each other. I'm like "I prefer this one. Oh you prefer that one? Yeah, that's respectable."
Dark cherry mystery >>>
Why does everybody do the equation Opening = Song ? 😥
I rarely see the visual get talked about and they're just as important (if not more, depending on the opening itself)
This is the chillest "let's fight" I've ever heard
I would disagree about Chainsaw Man's opening; Kick Back is pretty good for me.
While I agree that Maximum the Hormone would be a great fit to CSM, I think it's already great that not only did they have an ending theme on CSM, they also have their song incorporated into the actual show sometimes. *I think that's more than enough to put MtH into CSM's sound*
I loved the Psycho Pass OP, still listen to this song, same to unravel. I totally recommend the "First Take version" its chefs kiss.
Also, please give a try to more of their songs, they have a lot of nice ones like "flower" or "Monster" and many more!
Flower is a nice one! My personal fav is White Silence.
can't miss enigmatic feeling and the entirety of the album i'mperfect for that matter
18:45 hell yeah the OGs know..."haruka kanata" was what made Naruto ops in it's early days...even though my favourite is the 5th one "seishun kyoushoukyoku"
11:56 What a based take. Children of the Sea is truly one of the most mid anime films ever made
18:23 Holy shit another insanely based take
In terms of KICK BACK, I am quite the Yonezu fan boy and it is easily my favorite OP of the year, but I will say it was definitely a bit of a business decision, like getting the biggest artist in Japan for the OP of the most anticipated Shonen anime in recent memory, so maybe had CSM not been as popular, Maximum the Hormone or SiM would’ve been chosen. With that said it also seems like a lot of passion was put into it with Yonezu and Daiki Tsuneta being huge fans of the manga and all the details they put into the song itself representing CSM. Also with the second half of the story being even crazier than the first half, I think it’s fitting that they leave a band like MtH, SiM or King Gnu for season 2. To each their own though
100 that guy is massive now.. business decision luckily he wrote a banger of a bang lol
The Chainsaw Man'OP, I think, may not be as banging, but it addresses youth (got melody that tells the story), got the brisk feeling (the two who don't care), and the lyrics that summarise the perspective of Kenji, which I feel it fits the meaning of the anime pretty well.
the monster opening is actually so underrated, the vibes are so on point
I'd love to see Joey talking about anime openings that are originally sung in English.
As a Silhouette enthusiast, I would like to point out my reasonings as to why it's better than Haruka Kanata. Firstly, I believe that an opening is like a math equation. You add in both the visuals and the music to determine if you like it or not. Silhouette has the superior visuals. The scene of a young Naruto growing up whilst he runs in the battle field still gives me chills till this day. We've seen that boy grow up into the ninja that he was when that opening released. Secondly, I think that Silhouette fit the visuals perfectly. The opening was about the journey of the four main characters we were following: Naruto, Sasuke, Madara, and Obito. It didn't need a hard hitting song like Haruka Kanata. The angelic tone of the vocalist of Silhouette set the tone for the opening. It's kinda like Red Swan in Attack on Titan. Instead of having a banger like the first couple of openings, they chose to slow it down and hit you in the feels instead of your ear drums.
Nanaimo oooo nanimoooooo
Hey Joey, I don't if this was discussed before, but it would be really cool to find out more about HOW Anime Openings are chosen. Does the studio buy the rights to use the song? Do the rights holders line up and pay to be featured in Animes? Are some songs actively commissioned? Thanks for considering my topic =)
This was discussed in a video with Nano
@@bidibidibambam4658 do you have any idea which one it was? I think there was more than one or am I going crazy?
A video about personal ancestry on The Anime Man channel, and a episode of Let's Fight on the Joey channel? I think there might have been a mistake. lol
That dude is nuts.... The Evangelion opening, almost single handedly, planted the seed of appreciation of the Japanese language and it's beauty, in my young mind... This seed, put me on the path I am on today where my Japanese level is almost N3 level, and I'm studying every day out of pure passion and a deep spiritual appreciation of the language.
He deserves the L + Ratio... 110%
Amen. I wish I had time to learn Japanese.
A Cruel Angel’s Thesis is incredibly overrated. The visuals are great, but the song is really mediocre.
When it comes to Chainsaw Man. I think Kick Back was a good song, but the artist I would've wanted to sing the OP is TK from Ling tosite sigure. I know I'm a massive fan of his and that the ED he made was fire, but I think he would've been better for the OP.
Love the Chris Broad imitation at 4:20
16:02 I love how you still found a way to shout out to Baccano. The baccano opening easily slaps the hardest
This is definitely an unpopular take but I think the CSM opening is Kenshi's best song (and the best anime op of the year ofc). His voice fits the feel so well imo and the song is really unique as well. I also like the first ending by Vaundy but it sounds a lot more generic.
Also wtf the Alfheim op is mid asf
Yeah wtf Joey
I introduced my friend to Death Note, and I can clearly remember his first time hearing that 2nd OP by Maximum the Hormone and letting out a pleasantly surprised "OHH! Shit's getting real."
Hearing them again for that Chainsaw Man ED lit me up. All their music makes me want to rage in the pit
The song at the beginning immediately raised my serotonin and dopamine through the roof😂❤
Broooooo the wave of memories when you mentioned brokencyde holyyyy. Cant be bring up the dark past like that dude.
Noice joey finally posted something
4:19 What a good Chris Broad impression
In my personal opinion, CSM Op is good enough, and especially because we actually did get a maximum the hormone song for one of the endings, which is actually exactly what I imagined Chainsaw man's OP to be like. It more than makes up for it that we get SO many different endings, everyone can have their favorite song.
second OP will probably be more that vibe. This is still the “calm” part of the story in season 1 after all.
I agree with many things you said, like Tank!/Gun's & Roses, and also what you said about Haruka Kanata and Silhouette. And who could ever hate Flyers? Geez.
Platinum Dico is really really really really underrated! And it's very nostalgic for me as well
If I had twitter and joined on this I would have said blue bird (naruto) was up there, haven't heard silhouette. I would have also mentioned GO!!! as an underappreciated naruto opening, but you joey had the right opinion. Haruka kanata is probably the best naruto opening. Personally I always thought that bakuman had the better "blue bird" opening. Talking underappreciated series right there.
And I never watched evangelion, but Cruel angel's thesis FUCKING SLAPS, it's SO GOOD.
Otherwise I think giving just a very small clip of the most known part would be helpful for videos like these where you discuss anime openings/endings would help quite a few people who aren't as familiar with all the series being discussed.
Can't believe Joey has read monogatari and thinks Nadeko is the worst character D:
I'm still expecting the Off Season adaptation to see everyone start loving Nadeko after watching Nademonogatari 😌
I love that your complaint voice for the death note take sounds like Chris Broad 10/10
While i enjoy kick back, I actually think the endings they use for chainsaw man are the real star of the show (music wise) Chainsaw blood by vaundy is such a good song and is what I invision when I think about chainsaw man. Just my opinion though the whole selection of songs for this anime overall is amazing.
I have not seen Death Parade at all (maybe someday), but that opening is so good. I love Bradio, and the music video for Flyers is so much fun.
at the very least it’s an excuse to hear Flyers 12 times but I would definitely recommend checking it out if you’re in the mood for a fun existential crisis
4:20 great Chris Broad impersonation
I’m 17mins in and surprisingly haven’t seen any Kuroshitsuji opening mentioned. I was honestly expecting at least Monochrome Kiss. (And I’m saying this as a Kuroshitsuji fan too.)
Also… jeezus Joey just threw me back so hard by mentioning Brokencyde. (I saw them live at one point too. 💀)
And he seriously wonders why he’s known as the Anime Karen
I looked up the parasyte opening, and it immediately pissed me off because it reminded me of the HunterxHunter ending (just awake, I looked it up😅)..
.
Also, HunterxHunter's second ending almost made me cry because, in my view and taste of music, there was many perfect opportunities for a heavy double kick drum section while the singer is doing his thing.
Chaisawman's Opening is great. Kick Back got so many layers put into it making it really fun to sit down and just listen to it quietly. It is a really great song man. But Joey is correct when saying that they could have picked a better band to suit the csm vibe. I personally think King Gnu is perfect for Chainsawman
I can 100% understand and respect your opinion on the CSM opening, but the song is a banger for me, I love Kick Back lol
Also, loved watching this series back when you did it on the main channel, happy to see more of it!
I'm so so so happy that you mentioned "Platinum Disco" cause I always didn't understand why noone talked about it. I thought maybe I was weird cause the opening slaps and is a total vibe........nice
Joey’s intros never fail to make me laugh 😂😂
I'm still so mad that "Devil in Your Heart" by SiM wasn't the opening for CSM, it would've fit so perfectly.
The CSM opening song has so many intracicies and depth to it. If you sit and listen to the song with your eyes closed, listed to the song itself and the instrument placements etc... It's actualy insanely intricate.
I mean he speaks japanese fluently so he definitely understands the song.
It isn’t really that intricate
It is really not lol. It is a very shallow and generic pop rock song, the Kenshi Yonezu special. Any metalcore op is much more complex.
Hey guys, Joey's video is good and all but any of you know that DRIP he's wearing where from? that looks sick
I've always preferred endings so this video is great, only a few can catch my eye nowadays
i started laughing so hard when you mentioned brokencyde. my childhood lmao
and bro, people that say naruto openings are overrated just dont like music. haruka kanata, diver, sign, go, etc. there are a lot of bangers in naruto/naruto shippuden openings. i bet its the same people that says Whats Up People is bad
Love these videos Joey! I really love both the Death Note openings and Maximum the Hormone is fantastic! Also Parasyte opening slaps imo!
If you liked those I'm sure you'll like Kaiji OP 2, fantastic series as well
Thank you for mention of Asterisk, I love it
And I was expecting "Devil in your heart" by SiM as an opening for CSM, they made Rumbling, I was disappointed they didn't choose it. it fits CSM so well.
they wanted to be in CSM OP or ED too
@@callmesweet8344 there are so many ED's in csm and they didn't got even one 🥲
