| @Cielord Cielord said: is it better to link the opening video or the music video by the artist, or it doesn't matter? imo, opening video is better than music video by artist bcs animation is also matters in OP. And it also helpful to those ppls who haven't watched that anime, rest is upto the nominators |

| @Adnash Oh, by the way, @nirererin - this is the first version of this opening. I didn't know if it mattered, so I didn't include it. The main difference between v1 and v2 consists of a small, yet very significant change in some frames (not to spoil anything in case someone is not familiar with DBS: the change is about swapping one character for the other one), but the rest of the opening remains unaffected. However, the second version plays for the most of the episodes that have OP 2, so should I put the second version? |

| I think it would help to be clearer on whether it's the full opening theme being evaluated, or the TV edit of the theme along with the opening animation as it appears when watching the anime. Anyway, there's a lot of good options but I'm gonna go with Kenpuu Denki Berserk's (Berserk '97) opening, TELL ME WHY by PENPALS: When I hear that intro riff I feel such an intense rush of emotions that are impossible to put into words, I truly consider it in a league of its own. |

| @Adnash I am leaving it to your wise judgement, bcs I don't know very much about dbs. I only watched the db and dbz. But if you like to change, don't modify the previous post, create another cuz I don't get notify otherwise and you can also mention me. |
