Rules

Every single eligible anime of the season with at least 3000 members on MAL has been included in the contest, roughly doubling the number of participants compared to before

The contest will no longer have multiple rounds in a bracket format. Instead it will just be one big free-for-all round to decide everything. There will still be two entries posted per day, however every entry is competing against every other in the whole lineup. It is not just a direct head-to-head competition between the two themes in the same post, that is only for scheduling purposes. Don't try to simply compare the two of them against each other; judge every entry individually

When judging the entries, you should no longer simply vote for one or the other. Instead you should give a rating to both contestants

This is done by giving each entry a score on a 1-10 scale for both the audio and the video separately. Decimals are not allowed. For clarification, see the example post in the following section

At the end of the tournament, there will be three winners crowned. One for best average audio score, one for best average video score, and one for best average total score, where the latter can be considered the "true" bracket winner

Don't try to abuse the system. We will be keeping close tabs on everyone's votes in the tournament spreadsheet so we will easily notice if someone tries to forcibly give out 10/10s to one entry and 1/10s to everything else just to boost the chances of their favourite entry. The admins have the right to disqualify any such votes from the competition altogether

A new pair of entries will be showcased every day throughout the tournament's running and every group will remain open for voting for approximately 72 hours. We've increased the time every round remains open by 50% since with just one big round, you only have one opportunity per entry to speak your mind about it. However, it will not really affect the overall tournament schedule as the full competition will last about a month in total regardless

There will be a big data spreadsheet linked further down which anyone can open at any time to check on the current standings of the contestants and the tournament schedule

Example Post

Entry 1:
Audio - x/10
Video - y/10

Entry 2:
Audio - z/10
Video - t/10

Entry 3:
Audio - a/10
Video - b/10

Simply replace "Entry 1, 2, 3" with the titles of the anime you're judging and then input whatever numeric scores you feel like they deserve below instead of the symbols. Please make sure it is obvious who you are voting for.

Try to vote for the best opening/ending, not the best show.
Every round will run for roughly 72 hours-ish and new one gets posted every day.
If you notice any mistakes, please comment below. Some songs may be pitched/nightcored due copyright issues.

Seeds are shuffled.

Since some shows can have multiple openings/endings, we have decided to allow only the first one into the competition. It seems the best and the most fair solution. We want many different contestants rather than one show taking whole bracket.

Also, since there are many much more obscure shows included with the new tournament format, there is a chance that some themes might simply be impossible to find on the internet. If it turns out that we are unable to track down a copy of the entry for the purposes of the tournament then the contestant may have to be disqualified.

If you have questions, ask them below.

Video - 7/10 (I like the aesthetic though it often feels a bit rough)

Cop Craft | OP:
Audio - 8/10 (best OP theme of the season since Origin 3 ain't on the list. It's the only one with any right to win)
Video - 5/10 (I like the aesthetic but the visuals themselves are real hit and miss, designs included. It's choppy as hell, the CGI ain't very good, and they really gimped the ending. Shoulda made the "power instaaaaaal!" part the part when we see the characters on those two rising towers)

I guess I'm just not a fan of the song. Makes my head hurt a little in fact, not that I have anything against sitars, but maybe guitars that sound like sitars, not so much. Chill to the point of hypnotic, just in a bad way. The video is really great though, and it does go with the atmosphere presented by the song.

Cop Craft | OP:
Audio - 9/10

Such a good blend of all things cheeky, cheesy and rule of cool. I love it. Goes to show you don't need smooth as butter animation and throwing out CGI to have a 10/10 OP video.

Verdict: 1st OP is leaps better in musicality and creative visuals.

Cop Craft | OP:
Audio - 9/10
Video - 7/10

Verdict: Cool song, even if Ooishi is present without Tom-H@ck. OP of the season IMO. Visuals are a mish-mesh of 2D and CGI.

Verdict: OP of the season IMO, even if it's not Ox

Verdict: Yeap. A typical shounen opening that doesn't wow. Visuals make up for the setting.

I'm not really sure what to do when you not only double post but put different scores on them. I'll just count the second post for now seeing as that's the most recent one but if you have any complaints about that then I guess just PM me about it later
