  • Not really sure what qualifies as underrated/overrated,.. BUT in terms of things I can find on YouTube and general sense of amount of discussion I've seen,.. I think the OPs get more attention than the EDs of these series when I've tended to like the EDs better

    Seisenshi Dunbine's ED because power ballads are fun

    Gundam IBO S1's ED feels James Bondy with the swung feel and the strings (incidentally Aria the Origination's OP Spirale, also great, kinda feels James Bondy to me but more for the chromaticism,.. ANYWAYS)

    and yeah, this was a stacked season (with competition like Bocchi the Rock) but I think my favorite ED of that season was Do It Yourself's ED because of its ultimate comf (kinda gives me the same feel as Nichijou's first ED)

    • Seisenshi Dunbine’s ED because power ballads are fun

      If you haven't seen it, check out L-Gaim's OP 1st OP as well. Same singer, great power ballad vibe.

      Edit: oh, hey, and 0083's "Men of Destiny", too!

      Honestly, MIO / MIQ should have been the fifth (sixth?) Knight Saber.

  • Paranoia Agent's OP and ED are creepy and really good. Probably not underrated but I don't know anyone else IRL who's seen it.

    I also really like Haibane Renmei's ED.

    • Susumu Hirasawa also did the OP and ED to Kon's Paprika and I haven't managed to find clips of him performing any of Paranoia Agent live, his live shows look like a trip with him performing with a laser controller

    • Synchronicity! Months later, I'm listening to a video essay about Paranoia Agent, as I search Lemmy for any actual discussions about Haibane Renmei!

      • I hope anime discussions (in general) become more popular in Lemmy. It's hard to start topics as someone who mostly watches old stuff but it's nice to know there are people interested in these around here!

  • Underrated or good? Because I have no idea how people on large perceive or rate ops/eds.

  • Canaan's OP Mind as Judgement is really really good and I rarely hear people talking about it, much less about the anime itself.

  • I'd like more people to talk about many aspects mushishi since I think it should be considered an all-time classic. Sore Feet Song is one of the few that stuck with me for nearly a decade now.
