And we have the worst opening of the show so far.
I was so fucking hyped when at AX they talked about X Japan doing the OP.
No X Japan, no bombastic power metal. :(

So is this not that band or is it the band but not in their style? Sorry I didn't catch the band name when watching it.
The song is from Yoshiki, who is the drummer and main songwriter from X Japan, and he co-operated on that song with HYDE from L'Arc-en-Ciel. So, that's not an X Japan song. And it's not really in their classic style, no. They have some slower, melodic tracks, but this sounds nothing like X Japan. It was initially reported after AX that the song would be from X Japan, so I thought that they got another great power metal group as a subsitute for Linked Horizon.

Ah interesting. That's unfortunate they didn't explain it better. Thanks.
How does something like this happen?
:(
Listening to season 1 OP to reignite the hype that listening to this OP negated.
There is this special feeling you have that encompasses another musician/group coming in and stepping into revo's shoes and the utter apathy you feel towards their attempt.
I'm fine with it not being a bombasticly epic song, but man oh man that is one bland tune. Not a fan of any of this.
If this was episode 1 of 24, I'm fine with that.
Love shadow conspiracy shit
The OP isn't terrible, but compared to the previous ones, it's not great. Feels disjointed, and it's more emotional than bombastic (which might be more fitting for this upcoming season, I dunno). I will have no qualms skipping it in the future instead of feeling compelled to always watch it, which is a negative.
The episode itself was alright. Nothing awesome after the great finale of the previous season. I don't know if I'm actually into the focus of human vs. human here; we'll see how it goes. And damn, they killed Nifa off.

It's really not about it being emotional it's just arguably less interesting compared to most of what revo does. Revo did a couple of emotional tracks for bravely default that still had unique spins on them.
Not that I'm going to argue too hard since music is so insanely subjective but I think it's not wrong to say that Revo is very distinctive with what he does in general and yeah I also wouldn't argue that bombastic energy is especially one of his strong suits.

[Attack on Titan S3] - 1
The OP for this season is unfortunately quite bad. I understand the idea behind it in principle, but the execution is lacking, most notably in the editing department. Due to the ineffective editing the OP has no real rhythm or flow and just ends up feeling like a misfire. I also think that conceptually, the ideas they're trying to put across here would serve far, far better as an ED where the audience can collect their thoughts and reflect on the events they've seen. The OP for a serious like Attack On Titan needs some energy and fire to it, which this sorely lacks.
As for the episode itself, it was fine. It looks like they're going to be compressing/rewriting the manga somewhat which is a good idea considering this arc really drags in the original version. However, as a result of this compression it does feel like we're moving from scene to scene at such a rapid clip that any sense of tone, place or atmosphere is lost. Hopefully the following episodes will be more even.

Interesting episode, looking
forward on how Levi grew up with Kenny.
OP is alright, doesn't match the visuals in my opinion and felt out of place. Strange feeling to see a calm music in AOT opening when you're so used to the epic loud music it puts out in past seasons.

The opening is fine. Not as great as the older ones but it was good in its own way.
Episode itself, Nifa; she only lasted one episode. Slow start but the ending keeps me hyped for the next episode. That said, poor Armin.

She was an established character who was there before. Unless you mean she only lasted one episode of the new season, which yeah... It's too bad, I liked her look.
Then I completely forgot she appeared last season.

Good start to the season, the next episode should be amazing.
Though the opening is a big departure from the previous ones, I quite like it.

As far as anime OPs go, the new one is quite good. However, I just feel like Attack On Titan has always been about the high intensity OPs and this one's not really going for that at all, so it feels out of place.
Regarding the content of the episode, man if we get to the fucking ocean before we get to the basement I'm going to be pissed lol.

Lol why not both! But anyways logically that would have to happen, since we know the ocean is not within the walls but Eren's old house with the basement is. So if they've made it outside the walls by the end of the season they will have made it past the basement.
