Jin? As in Jinn? The band who did the 4th OP for Blood+? Or another Jin?

I hope we don't get those new OP/EDs soon though. I love the current ones. Hopefully the new ones come at like, episode 20.

[verity_isle]

*looks* Er, yes, I think it's spelled Jinn. I have no idea who the band is, however, so it's got Hii-tan, Haruka, Motoki and one more whose kanji I am not pronouncing?

Me too. I like the one we have. Less than the first one, but at least it's the same song.

I wanted it to be Orange kun (sorry FukuJun)! I tried! I put in my little vote! *sob*

(But I am actually completely delighted that with all those votes cast he got number 5! \^-^/ And Lloyd number 6!)

Annoyed about Karen being number 2 though; she's a cipher - and Shirley featuring at all as she's....yuk *words fail me here*. When there are ladies as awesome as Conelia, Millay and Vialetta and Shirley gets votes....>:/

Sunset Swish did 'My Pace' for Bleach (I believe), which was a lovely song, so that makes me happy.

[verity_isle]

Orange-kun has a long, long uphill battle...and he actually pwned CC early on. Damn the fanservice!

Karen's number 2...as I said before, you can't beat shower scenes. :p She's a nice character and one of the most developed to date, though. Agreed on Shirley. I like her, but Millay at least should win. The Japanese really seemed to like the unrequited love friend/osanajimi model.

Ah, they did? We can probably rest easy then.

...and he actually pwned CC early on.

Yay! Go Orange kun go! XD

She's a nice character and one of the most developed to date, though.

:) I was really disappointed with her development in 9! I thought it was really clichéd! It just seems in a cast of characters where there is a lot of moral ambiguity, she's really uninteresting. She is just your fanservice token 'tough girl with sad past'. There are girls WAY more interesting in Code G than her. CC is actually a good example (and the ladies whose names I gave ^-^). I've become more impressed by Euphemia, actually, and less by Karen as the story has progressed.

I have no objection to unrequited love as a theme, but Shirley is so....*words fail me*...XDDD

[verity_isle]

Shirley has nothing else to sell her except unrequited love, is that what you mean? XD That, and her unreasonable kindness.

I'm growing more fond of Euphemia, too. She's a princess with a backbone, at the least, and that's somewhat fresh. (Despite her Lacus-analogue-ness, she's not exactly like Lacus) I'm not too fond of Kallen (or the 'angsty tough girl' type in general) myself, but she's pretty much the one with the most significant screentime at first. People do like that.

My dear FukuJun, how can you be surprised that Lelouch got first place?

I love how he keeps on grilling Orange-kun though. XD Jeremiah would've been my vote if it wasn't for Lelouch.

New OP and ED songs so fast? o_O Didn't they just make a new opening?

[verity_isle]

Yes, I know. Silly, isn't he? Tsk.

People love Jeremiah more than some of the 'main' characters. XD But he does deserve it! And you know, the entire fandom/staff seems to like making fun of the Great Orange. XDD

Yeah, but it's the same song. Looks like we're getting something brand new. (Sunrise is sure throwing its money in, isn't it? Their usual 26-EPers don't get two OP/EDs.)

[loqi]

the entire fandom/staff seems to like making fun of the Great Orange.

XDD Heehee.

I knew it was the same song, but wouldn't they have to make up another opening for a new song? If they're throwing in new songs so soon then they really should've waited for the new song to make a new opening. I've actually never seen an anime where they change the opening and not the song, which is why I'm confused.

Really don't know how Sunrise usually does things. Maybe they made the decision after they realized how popular it is?

[verity_isle]

Haha, making a semi-new OP for one song is unheard of for Sunrise in general, but is rather standard for Taniguchi Goro. He's a somewhat atypical director for Sunrise.

Could be. I'm also sort of hoping it gets more episodes, since 25-26 is sorta INSANE to resolve this plot. However, that's probably just wishful thinking.

[sapphire_pyro]

Yay! Lulu's on top! ^_^ . . . but where's the rest x_X Ya know, people who rank after Lulu ^^;

Oooo . . .new OP and ending x_X So fast . . . other series don't even get a new OP after ending it with 26 eppies or so x_X

Anywayz, thanks for sharing ^_^

[sapphire_pyro]

Ignore this: but where's the rest x_X Ya know, people who rank after Lulu

^^; I now know where the list came from . . ehehehe

[x_reggg]

newtype said next season, each season is either 13 or 26-ish episodes. so we're gonna get the new one at episode 14? .__.

[verity_isle]

Next? O_O I figure 13 is actually just half a season...but there's no reason to wishfully think it's anything else, I suppose.

[x_reggg]

okay i lied, it said second season. but we're on the first season, so i guess it's right? .___.

i always thought 13 was one season, coz you have 4 seasons and there are 52 weeks and all .___.

[verity_isle]

Could be. Probably. I'm not too knowledgable about these things. XD;
