What's the worst case of an opening making literal whos look relevant?

>>280385111 (OP)
THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME CUUUUUUM

>>280385111 (OP)
Dragon ball z op, great days

>>280385321
If you mean We Gotta Power, at least the literal whos only appear in the final lineup, the YYH ones actually have their own scene.

One piece

Thanks, I have epilepsy now.

why does yusuke's mom look like she's 3 years older than him

>>280385414
what the fuck even was that

>>280385476
Because that's not Yusuke's mom. That's Shizuru.

>>280385536
eh heh heh

The only problem with this OP is that they revealed the "side change" like 5 episodes too early, but OPs do shit like that all the time

>>280385111 (OP)

>>280386786
They even keep those guys in the opening for the Makai tournament arc.

>>280386810
iirc they do get extra panel time in the manga after CB finishes but the final episodes of the anime are a lot different than the manga

>>280385500
current state of modern animation

>>280385445
there are no relevant characters in SoL

Naruto is pretty bad
...about doing this.

>>280385111 (OP)
Kurama is a semen demon.

>>280387454
... for faggots

>>280387543
I guess?

>draw a girl
>call it a man
Why do they do this?

>>280387741
togashi loves faggots

>>280387453
They were really good about it in part 1 where they'd go extra miles and even add new animation to some of the OPs as the arcs progressed and new things were revealed. This is a rare thing I haven't seen done in really any other series I can think of off the top of my head other than Jojos.
I think they only did those extra versions with the 4th and 5th OP though maybe there's more

Jesus Christ, I completely forgot who these fuckers were and YYH's one of my favorite anime...

Bleach OP 1

Kuwabara's sister is important to my dick.

>>280388796
Chapter Black was really fun before it got to the final confrontation, these characters are memorable to me at least because the arc was good, but maybe it was a bit too short. It was only like 15 episodes where those characters had any relevancy

But the penis is feminine, therefore not gay.

I'm overdue for a rewatch. It's been 10+ years and the first time I watched the series it was on Toonami and I only saw up to end of the Dark Tournament.

>>280388853
they're all important though

>>280386790
Shes the best recent example

>>280390127
>>280386790
She explains the plot.

>>280385111 (OP)
not an OP but the ED to season 1 of elusive samurai is full of characters that die in the first episode

>>280385414
Jesus Christ what a disaster

>>280385197
Damn it anon, now I can't unhear it.

>>280390166
yeah, narrator-chan is definitely important

So this is where Kishimoto got the "Chakra Scalpel" ability from.

A compilation of impact frames.

>>280389226
The hospital arc is my favourite part of the whole show and Kamiya probably is the most underrated villain. Guy flat out murdered innocents and got away with it.

>>280391272
was there a great key and in between frame shortage?

>>280388417
Pokémon does it too. There was a batch of episodes during the current series where several evolutions took place one after the other and the OP was updated each time to reflect them, including a variation that only lasted one episode.

>>280385111 (OP)
a really interesting example of this was JJK putting junpei in the opening as if he was going to switch sides and be a major character moving forward only to kill him in the most brutal way.
I know multiple normies who really got tricked by that move.

>>280388417
S-CRY-Ed's OP was famous for it too

>>280385781
Came here to post this
It was cool how the jobber Bronzes came in at the end of Sanctuary though.
