If no one of the characters dance during the opening (once we get the visuals), I riot.

Totally a banger btw !

Yeah for real! It had that jazzy rap feel to it. The instrumentals sound very similar.

Beastars gets a banger and the most unique OP of the year (I mean, you won't see stop motion often in mainstream anime seasonal shows), boy what a time to be alive ...

The song is sick as hell. I didn't expected it to be so catchy. Solid contender for opening of the season.

Yes, even just the song is very good. Surely with visuals it will already be one of my favorite opening this year.

Dang, it's so cool!
They say there's no such place... as Paradise. Even if you search to the ends of the earth, there's nothing there. No matter how far you walk, it's always the same road. It just goes on and on. But in spite of that, why am I so driven to find it? A voice calls to me. It says 'Search for Paradise!' "

It definitely met my expectations, great light contrast before the chorus and cute dance !

Then it took a dark turn ...

I can't believe I'm saying this in a time where Mob Psycho is a thing, but this is OP of the year for me, as well as easily one of my favorites in a long loooong time

That's probably the most unique anime OP I've ever seen. It's a strong contender for best of the year based on the visuals alone.

To be fair 99.9, while good enough, can't even come close to the absolute masterpiece that is 99, which is not only incredible in every conceivable way but actually fits with the entire manga. I'm really looking forward to season 3's OP though... BONES will have some nice symbolism to work with there because of the last arc.
So yeah. BEASTARS gets the OP of the year.

While I absolutely adore 99, I'd have to disagree. 99.9 has some of the most creative animation I've ever seen in the medium, every cut just completely flexes on most other anime that have aired now and before it, there's so many sweet techniques I haven't ever seen used in shows all the way throughout it, and that segment when the chorus drops with the fights going down against the moving footage of a city was ridiculously creative. I'd say both 99.9 and 99 are even but 99.9 edges out as the better OP to me. plus the song is a total banger.

PLEASE BONES MAKE SEASON 3 GOD DAMMIT.
gotta agree though, stop motion is one of the most charming forms of animation by far so this OP won my heart completely.

Sure, I never tried to claim it wasn't creative and stunning animation-wise, but I didn't want BONES to flex on us with a funky action movie, I wanted something as thematically perfect as 99. But I understand if they just wanted to focus on Suzuki's arc and have some mindless fun with it; as I said, we still have the final OP to look forward to. Yes, season 3 is eventually gonna happen. In BONES we trust.

Stop motion is fancy as hell, I really wasn't expecting that at all. They're showing a lot of love and respect for Itagaki's work :'>

It's such a great opening. I love the mixture of Robot Chicken-style animation and music which is very reminiscent of JJBA's Bloody Stream by Coda (OP 2) The opening really does represent what the show is: A wolf's struggle with his love for a herbivore, in spite of being a carnivore himself, with both of the personalities very clearly displaying. The opening is perfect, I love it.
