You're gonna have to forgive me for all the posts. I'm at work, slightly if not extremely bored. And I only stop by the forums when I'm here, cause at home I'm watching anime or playing PC games. So yeah. I'm currently on the 12th episode of Wolf's Rain and it's a dope series, except the opening theme.
Every anime series I have watched, except for maybe .hack//SIGN has had really good intros. And since Wolf's Rain had a lot of hype I expected the intro to be a lot more than it is, especially since the musical score was written by Yoko Kanno.
The opening theme "Stray" though having to do with dogs being strays is a little too early 90's power pop. I only detest it because of it's genre not because it's bad song. The song in fact is quite good for what it is. The singing is excellent with many diffrent melodies and variations in the singers voice (forgot his name). My point is normally anime intro's get you pumped and you can listen to them and rock out in your car. (Favorite is still Driver's High by Larc-en~ciel from GTO) This intro just disappoints me I guess, but that's art for ya; sometimes awesome othertimes far from it.
Opinions?
By the way the .hack//SIGN intro gives me a headache which is funny cause they lyrics are "Losing my headache" The intro is fine for topic of the series, but I hate hate hate hearing it.
