| I liked chalaheadchala, Again and Cruel Angels Thesis so I guess theyre cool but dont you think there are more genres than kpop and jpop? Comparing anime OP/ED to Kpop is like comparing humans to woman(yeah sounds like a cool joke) in the sense that one is only a section of the other. |
 Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself. That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes! |
| Some shows may even use Kpop as openings or endings! For example, Ao no Exorcist's ED song Take Off by by Kpop group 2PM |

| J-pop in general. It's really unique marketplace. You won't be able to find anything similar to J-pop in any other country. I like how they are blending music genres, they can do a great mix of underground electronic music with hard rock and it's just mind blowing. Kpop is just generic American/western pop (with Korean vocals) which I hated a long before I discovered Japanese music. To be honest there is nothing to compare, if you are searching for something unique, dig into j-music,if you like Western pop and Korean language, choose Kpop. |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Lol, Korean language is imo one of the most unpleasant languages, I hate hearing it and I feel sick when I hear any Korean music (unless they sing in English or Japenese, obviously). I also think most Kpop stars look quite bad. Japanese, on the other hand, is very nice to listen to, and Japanese performes/musicans don't look like clones so my answer here is obvious. |

| I prefer anime openings/endings more than K pop because I used to hear them in anime and I interested in Japanese language. |

Comparing anime OP/ED to Kpop is like comparing humans to woman(yeah sounds like a cool joke) in the sense that one is only a section of the other. I agree with you , but these songs are also considering as a Jpop . Anyway the problem is does people forget all these great song when they said Kpop is better than Jpop ? I mean why are you making the anime OP/ED>k pop when a big amount of shows have jazz, rock or many other genres as their OP/ED themes. I like the english OP/ED more often than the japanese themes. |

| I feel like J-pop and K-pop are 2 completely different worlds. I honestly listen to K-pop more. Hell, I don't even listen to J-pop anymore (back in middle school though, I was a HUUUUUUUGE FLOW fan, like they were all I listened to). One thing I noticed about J-pop is that they are more rock-based, while K-pop can be more R&B/Hip hop/Pop based. There's really more to K-pop than the idols most people are familiar with, and I usually listen to artists/groups that are more involved in the R&B scene like Crush, Zion T., DEAN, and I like Ailee too but she's really pop. While yes, I admit, K-pop ESPECIALLY the idols can be very very manufactured, I still enjoy the music only because I like R&B more than rock, which is what I found most J-pop to be closely related to. On the other hand, I've heard some J-pop IDOLS like AKB48, and they are no better than some K-pop idols. das the shit i cant stand fr And I guess I'm the underdog here, cause I actually like the Korean language LOL. I even studied abroad there to study it. |
| I don't like either most of the time. I just don't like most of the artificial pop music. Not to say there aren't anime Openings I like a lot, but often it's not because of the music but because of the association with the show. And when it's a bit rockier or jazzy or rap-based it can actually be pretty good. As long as it's not generic sounding pop music, or Fear and Loathing in Les Vegas I usually find the anime openings at least okay, though it's mostly not the music I'd listen to in my free time. But most of my favorites are either instrumental only, english songs or from the 70s/80s. I do LOVE anisons from the 80s, particularly OVAs. I can listen to that shit all day. The 80s jpop/jrock sound is just so much more to my liking than the modern one. In general I like mainstream music from the 80s and 90s while in modern times I mostly listen to non-mainstream stuff. One modern anime-related band I really like though is Jam Project. I just love jazz too much and also (who would have thought) they were founded by someone who was a famous theme song artist in the 70s. Their Openings are always instant hype for me. Their two Garo Openings are still among my favorite Openings ever, because both music and visuals were just great. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I embrace all the music I like... any.. cause I like listening to music.. since I like them equally, I dont wanna even compare *hugs all music that I like ♥ But I do have my all time favorite song and only 2 both are Jamie Cullum's song.. and its not even from either Kpop or Jpop :p |

Darek said: Are you implying that all anime OPs and EDs are J-pop or are you just comparing them as a whole? Well objectively speaking anime OPs/EDs win because of greater variety, you are comparing one genre from one country to OPs and EDs that can be in any genre and are not always from Japanese artist therefore not from one country, in other words this thread is stupid, this comparision is stupid. IKR? its somehow to complicated... well kpop itself is not only a pop an example of Kpop Wikipedia says,"K-pop (abbreviation of Korean pop; Hangul: 케이팝) is a musical genre originating in South Korea that is characterized by a wide variety of audiovisual elements. Although it comprises all genres of "popular music" within South Korea, the term is more often used in a narrower sense to describe a modern form of South Korean pop music covering a range of styles including dance-pop, pop ballad, electropop, R&B, rock, jazz, popera, hip-hop and classical music.[1]" @Otakuz2017 Im not on on any side of music cause like I said I like them equally but I just curious of your statement, you said, "they have a great voice" so do you imply that Korean singer dont have a great voice? What do you think about these? |

What do you think about these? Sorry but this shit which called K pop are just copying western pop which are also shit lol like I watched in your first video . I don't like their voices and their language in other side , always Japanese have a voice much better than Korean in my opinion . Mhh I see.. Btw, do you know that Pop in Kpop means popular not pop music genre? and Jpop is basically what you said as pop cause there is a terms of Jrock... so basically from the name itself.. we cant rally get any certain path where this will end. |

What does it have to do with anything, just because I find something stupid does not mean I am not going to ____ there, I find this thread stupid for the reason why I have provided, even if most anime songs are J pop (which you wouldn't know because you have not seen all of anime) that does not change that it is still a pointless comparison because there is no basic ground to compare them. +1 @Darek ____________________________________________________________ |

| i'm a fan of both, and both are two of my primary genres of music. |
Well comparing something needs to consider both side equally right? to be fair? So a pointless comparison is still pointless.. and ofc cant be taken seriously... Im just trying to understand your point. Well I dont blame your personal music taste... Pop in Kpop means popular and Pop in Jpop means litterally pop music genre cause there is a term of Jrock.. so are you comparing 1 genre to popular music that could be a lot of genre? if you trying to point out that you like pop genre more, why dont just say that you like pop? |

| I like Kpop more. Especially now with the CD export ban enforced by Avex group. They just cater to international fans more & their music is more accessible & easier to legally own and listen to. You can find most Kpop songs on iTunes or Spotify, Jpop, on the other hand, has a more limited selection and is harder to find. |
| J - Pop in general. There are a few nice K- Pop songs and even Anime OP/ED sung/performed by K - Pop artists. |

| Western music is superior to both, but if forced to choose Japanese>Korean. |
| :) |
| Hopefully this thread would not turn into infinite brawl of superiority of J-pop/K-pop; full of circular reasoning by its stubborn zealots with their unmalleable opinions who refuse to yield even for a slight, like how those caricatures in other board demonstrated. |

| I prefer anime openings and endings but it has nothing to do with preferring Jpop over Kpop for me considering I generally don't listen to either of them. I only encounter Jpop when I watch anime openings and endings. |

ilar9118 said: Wow. Good job posting this in the anime forum, not biased at all, no. You didn't want people to agree with your opinion or anything, oh no. agreed I mean seriously what did you expected op? what the fuck people who like more kpop are usually people that listen more to kpop than like anime itself I do listen a fuckton of kpop but it doesn't even compare to what I listen when it comes to anime content because I like anime way more and that's what should be expected in an anime forum I guess lol |
| I listen to both kpop and Jrock/jpop. I see no problem with both. It just happens that kpop has that visual thing done right at most cases like the fashion/style etc to pull/attract new fans and listeners. But both wins in my heart and ears. |
| Lol kpop is trash compared to anime op/ed |

ilar9118 said: it is sad when they focus on making the songs good but end up failing most of the timeWow. Good job posting this in the anime forum, not biased at all, no. You didn't want people to agree with your opinion or anything, oh no. The main difference between Kpop and Anime Openings is that one is made to sell the song itself, and the other is meant to complement a bigger project. Therefore, kpop songs have more focus in being a good song, and anime openings are just something to hype the show up/be a background for credits. |

| "Which is better? Hip hop or southern rap?" |
あなたは誰？ |
| Boyy you dumb or something? This is an ANIME community, do we look like we watch korean cartoon or some shit.. of course j-pop would win |
on | I don't like Kpop or Jpop or any other letters of the alphabetpops. Well, if you go back to the 80s I can dig some jpop but then I can dig anything that sounds like the 80s. So I'll pick anime OPs because they have a ton of songs that are not generic pop songs, although they also have a shitton of those. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I guess i prefer anime openings and endings because i keep hearing them. |
| Dude, what the hell is Kpop? (¬_¬) |
| I love anime openings and endings but, what the actual fuck is a Kpop? |
