Cliché Central


Best viewed with headphones.

If you've seen at least of these violent fanservice-fests from our buddies over in Japan, then you'll easily find the humor in this. When it comes to show openings, no matter how good and unique the show's animation, music, and characters are, there are simply too many inescapable clichés that most every opening sequence falls victim to. Given there are unique anime openings out there, but so very few. For me, no matter how overdone the animation is, the music really makes or breaks my opinion of it. As pretentious as it may seem, an interesting opening sequence could be the difference between a changed channel and a new viewer. With all this said, I found this video incredibly interesting, poking fun at the many staples to most anime shows these days. Not to mention the music is addictive as hell~

Also 1:50 is quite the head turner. :I
