At episode 14 onward, there is a new opening for the anime. Between the first and second opening, which one do you like the most?



First Opening Theme - Feuerroter Pfeil und Bogen/Guren no Yumiya/Crimson Bow and Arrow






Second Opening Theme - Die Flügel der Freiheit/Jiyuu no Tsubasa/Wings of Freedom

Yeah, I've seen that one. Awesome and hilarious.



Still, I like this one the most:






You're right that it's called Guren no Yamiya, but it's also referred to in other different names. I edited the post, so thanks for that.

I like Guren no Yumiya better as a song, but I like the second one's animation better.

In terms of song 1st OP is better

In terms of animation 2nd OP is better

Both are amazing. The way I see it they really nailed the theme for both arc, Guren no Yumiya was fitting for the Trost arc & Jiyuu no Tsubasa definitely perfect for scouting arc. It will not work if the song used the other way around.

Animation: OP2 > OP1

Song short ver: OP1 > OP2

Song full ver: OP2 > OP1

Definitely the first one. The second one doesn't really stand out to me much.

Guren no Yumiya grabs your attention right from the start. For the longest time I couldn't get "Sie sind das essen und wir sind die Jäger!" out of my head. The OP version of the song I like, the full version kinda brought it down a bit. Still a great, uplifting song.

Second OP song is okay but not as memorable. Just a lot of "glorias" is all I can think of. The visuals are great though.

The first OP was just more epic (especially the song). The new OP definitely has better artwork, but I feel it still falls short. Also, not as many action sequences in the new OP like the first one. Like all the cool 3D rooftops action

Well, the animation of OP 2 is so awesome! I can't deny it. On the other hand, the song of OP 1 is far more awesome. So overall, I guess, it's a tie? Anyway, I voted for OP 1...

The intro of the first OP and the ending of the second OP. They were perfection.

But then again I'll lean towards the 2nd OP, even though I never thought that I'd do so, but I can feel it somehow? Goose bumps starting 1:12+ <3

First one had a better song but worse visuals, even though its full version is worse than the second.
And, I finally prefer the second one because of the amount of detail that's put into it.
So, What do you think is on the other side?

First is better overall.

But I prefer the second because dem feels.

The first one just reminds me of your stereotypical J-Rock/Anime opening, at least the second one is something different.

I want to change my vote to the 2nd choice. You can feel a lot of hope and ambition after humanity's first victory. Great to see the "wings of freedom" flying toward their objectives via 3DMG.

But the 2nd OP gives away a lot of previews and hints to questions viewers might have while watching each episode. I really like the lyrics for both, though.

Had they just got the German morsels right, I would've liked the second opening more.
Right now it's a tie.

I'm german and the first lines of the 2nd OP are still kinda hard to listen to for me...waah shivers.
BUT it also feels fabulous max, all the epicness and foreshadowing, almost like a hymn for SNK

Second because more German and I'm German
It also has a more royal sounding tone in the beginning.

Nevertheless I still downloaded both songs
