Whomever picked the ending song for this needs to be fired with an immediate effect and never allowed to work on anime again
| A whole episode of classy piano organ and accordion soundtracks, then comes the modern party ED- |
| 一期一会 |
| I was watching this with friends and we all started laughing because the choice of music was godawful. |

MakingTheMaouCry said: Really? I thought it was really good that Opening, different and upbeat nice fit for the rom-comAnd then there's tonikawa op. |
| Yeah but imo its pretty unfitting, and when the beat drops it just zooms in and out on the title how lame is that? |
| There was nothing wrong with the song you people find the stupidest things to complain about. |
 |
| Honestly what the heck was that song. It would be fine for like a slice of life anime or something like that but this... 😂 It sounds like vocaloid. |
 |
| AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA actually it is soooo bad that is hilarious! I love it XD |
| Yeah, it is pretty jarring considering the tone of the show. And a crappy song to boot. |

| I mean it's a show with bishies, just look at the ending for let's say Free or Heine Sensei. |

| The ending was awful. It gives me K-pop vibes and I absolutely hate it. |
| Believe, believe there's magic here tonight~~ |
| i haven't looked/listened to the ending yet but i'll go take a look since it sounds horrible lmao |
 |
| What in the world is up with the random complaints of the Tonikawa op ? The song is awesome, and while I agree that the zooming in on the title is kind of lame, everything else about the op is great. As for the ed of Moriarty, I think the song itself is fine but yeah I'd agree that it definitely doesn't fit with the anime. Still a bit of an overreaction though. |
| You people who are hating on the ed are so stupid. You just want something to hate since there is no reason to hate this anime you guys are just hating on the ed SMH. |

| ED gave me a laugh, I'm not kidding. I saw this topic before watching EP 1 and I thought "oh MAL is crying about small things again, like usual". I didn't expect it to be this bad lol. I'm not saying the song is bad, I don't want to offend fans out there, but it doesn't fit the mood created in EP 1. |

| Facts, I was thrown off the grid when I heard that. Sounds like something you would here in an upbeat shounen OP |
| Yeah...... that ending didn't feel good. |
 |
| Yeah that song was such a mismatch with this anime. I thought the Higurashi OP that's airing now and that anime was a mismatch (despite the song being great) but this is 1000000x a bigger mismatch. Such a weird choice. |
| The ED is in no way "unfitting". You/audience don't get to decide what's unfitting in terms of the arts direction. Unfitting infers it doesn't fit/sync/cannot absolutely go together b/c otherwise it is "wrong". While in reality it is an aesthetic choice and decision and what is true about the arts, music and everything of that nature? It is preference based and entirely subjective. It isn't "unfitting", you just don't like it is all. Imo, I dig it. It has a contrast vibe to it, similar to when a serious show like Death Parade has it's wacky and awesome OP. |
 |
| I think target audience (fujos) don't have problem with this ED. |
 |
| Glad that I'm not only one that thought it felt out place when watching the 1st episode. |
| i dont have an issue with it at least |
MakingTheMaouCry said: Yepp, the greatest op this season And then there's tonikawa op. |

If we don't get to have the opinion that its unfitting, then why do you get to have the opinion that it fits? Thats really all it is; an opinion. If the only ones capable of critique are the people in charge, then a restaurant could serve you terrible food and you would just have to accept it as their way of doing things. The way I see it the first episode did a pretty good job evoking a specific point in time, and contrasting it with something completely outside that sphere of time is a risk. I don't think this show pulled it off and it feels really distracting. Not saying it can't work, but that it's something that comes at the cost of ripping someone from the experience if done poorly. Whether someone likes a piece of music on its own I don't think is relvant to what it adds in context to something else. Theres plenty of music I like because it adds to a scene, but wouldn't listen to normally or vice versa. Not to detract from your personal opinion, but the way you voiced it was quite arrogant. |

I like that, that's a good point. Now that that you got me thinking in that way, "Unfitting" is also an opinion based context, I agree. I guess what I didn't like about all the other previous comments was that they all denounced it as "it doesn't work, THAT'S fact". While in reality since it is an "artistic" topic anything that is really said about it is, all in all, opinion. I still however do think it worked, that being imo, due to the overall nature of the song insert and the way it was executed. Again, it is similar to Death Parade and its OP. Not to detract from your personal opinion, but the way you voiced it was quite arrogant. Lmao, that's the thing with the internet and comments, it can be taken any which way since there is no tone to be heard. |

I guess I interpreted the tone as more harsh than it was supposed to be, that's my bad. Usually when someone dismisses the thoughts of a wide audience, that's the impression that I get. EDM could very well have worked much better if the rest of the story was set up to accomodate it tonally, maybe by having a story that was less serious or used sci-fi elements. I don't really know. |

| Title of this topic is overreaction enough though? Just chill. There have been anime where the genre of it is serious and dramatic and then you have openings like to Death Parade which is quite catchy compared with the serious tone of the anime or the second OP of Fruits Basket remake S1, people thought it was too cheerful to the overall drama tone in FB. Now then again, I haven't watched this anime yet and I probs will do so tonight, but if I hear the ending, I won't voice out my complain because...why waste so much energy when you got other things to be concerned about? Edit: I am listening on the ED right now and it's...not that bad? People have their tastes, yes, but OP, your naming of the title is pretty much of what I call "overreaction". |

| Hidoi... But I agree it could have been better. |
| I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die. |
| I just went back to listen to the ed and oh boy. It wasn't a bad song, but the mood. It kinda destroyed the atmosphere from before. It broke the tension and started playing some above-average music that would work for something other than Moriarty. [Edit] Listening to the song again, but with the lyrics, it's honestly very fitting. |

| I do not know about others and all been said here is a bit of exageration I one like the ending and visually can mean a lot those colors Look beyond Is bit more cheerful... but i love it |

| Initially I thought it was really jarring too But now after their back story covered & you look at those ED visuals with all that juxtaposition of bright, fun, colourful paint all slathered over them (when in actuality it is most likely alluding to blood/the harm & terror they have done) the ED almost seems fitting in contrast |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Didn't even notice it until I saw this thread... |
| I've never skipped ending this fast before. |
| I have started to watch the series and unlike some here, I have grown used with the ending, seeing the child versions of Louis, William and Arthur makes me smile and at the end, we get sexy shots of the adult versions ~ If people skip the ending as a whole and not willing to see the preview, it's on them, one solution is to mute the sound and watch the colorful palettes of the ending instead. |

| Not gonna lie. It doesn't fit the anime at all. But goddamn it's a good song in it's own, it is hilarious. This might be the first "guilty pleasure of ED's" I ever listened. So my ground stands, I love the song but it should be in another anime. |
