Do you like tiktok dance in modern anime OP/ED theme?

>>280156029 (OP)
The characters doing a dance as a song plays is pretty reasonable and I don't mind it. Of all the ways to pander, this is one of the least intrusive.

Haruhi did this in 2006. It's not a Tiktok thing.

I wasn't alive then, grandpa

>>280156465
Does you mom know you post here?

>>280156029 (OP)
The fuck is Nemu doing?

>tiktok dance
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It's fine since it's anime. It will never be as cringe as 3DPD.

Are the dances actually from tiktok? If not, that's something that's been around forever.
Haruhi was mentioned, but if you look only at dance snippets and not full choreos it's even older.

What is "tiktok dance"?

>>280157099
If we're doing this

It'd actually be interesting to know what the early versions of this are

Haruhi, lucky star, blood frontier had proper dance routines.

>>280157116
It's a dance where the characters are looking at the camera face on, stay in mainly one position on a floor and the moves are simple. This allows anyone watching to easily record themselves doing it.

>>280157294
Thanks.

>>280157199
Full Moon mentioned.

>>280157375
This would almost work apart from the more complex moves. Only two brave Japanese men can accomplish such a feat.
It was also obviously before tiktok too.

>>280157199
Why is this more soulful than anything animated in the last 10 years?

>>280157460
probably handdrawn cells

>>280156385
Haruhi/lucky star made actual dances and just did it for the sake of it.
Nowadays you can tell all these openings just do it to create tiktok trends or straight up copy dances from tiktoks or western music videos.

>>280157640
>all these openings
name 10

>>280157116
Not this one

>>280157640
old dance good new dance bad

Yeah, people dancing to anime was never a thing. They were just so cool and decided to have it and definitely not bait to become popular. No. Nuh uh.

>>280156029 (OP)
No.
t. grumpy old man.

>>280156029 (OP)
Why do people get so offended at people pointing out the very obvious intention of these studios trying to catch the attention of social media with trendy dances? That's the real question.

>Hurr, durr, aeroplanes were never a thing. The Wright brothers were just so cool and decided to have them.
Yes, fucking imbecile, Haruhi literally invented the concept of having dance numbers in an anime opening (as well as hundeds of other elements of what is considered "anime" today).

>>280157575
This is obviously early digital retard

>>280156029 (OP)
Poor cat dancing alone in a dark alley.

>>280156029 (OP)
I want to challenge the concept of dancing. These people are not moving their feet so I say they are not dancing.
>>280156359 These girls are actually dancing.

>>280159780
Look at this fucking zoomer.

>>280156756
Waiting in a dark alley to get raped by bad guys. Why?

Humiliation ritual for the characters and the viewers.

That's what makes it a tiktok dance. Only the upper body is filmed in a tiktok dance so there's no point in doing anything with your feet.

>>280157294
It doesn't bother me if it's in character. They already have a YouTube channel, doing tiktok dances for views and getting people they know into it seems like it could be a skit.

Why are people being purposely obtuse? It's obvious to literally everyone what is and isn't a tiktok dance. None of you are confused.

>>280156029 (OP)
I think this new OP is better than the old one. The song is catchy

>>280160337
Why even show their feet in the anime then? Just show their upper halves. It would still be as weird but it would make more sense.

If the voice actors record themselves doing the dance on official channels, then yes, they're trying to go viral. That said, I don't really care. I just like watching cute anime girls dancing.

>>280156359
Now post the Napoleon Dynamite dancing.

>>280156029 (OP)
Nope

>>280156029 (OP)
At least here they're not fat tattooed pigs looking to farm likes.

>>280159327
No it fucking didn't. There's already an example of anime with a dance in the OP that predates Haruhi by years posted in this thread >>280157199
Here's one that came out in the same season as Haruhi

Here's one that predates Haruhi by decades (yeah this is an ED but so was Haruhi's)

Why are they dressed like they're going to Little House on the Prairie auditions?
