Despite the many failings of this season, there is one thing I loved about it, which is the opening. It's such a banger, and is paired with extremely intriguing visuals. It just works so well, and is definitely one of my favorite openings of all time. Part of me thinks half the reason I even finished watching the season was to experience that minute and a half every week lol.

*edit*

Since everyone mentioned it, I agree the ending is also superb, for whatever reason I just didn't bring that up as well haha.

True true lol. I also found the way they did Norman's redemption to be different, yes, but not that bad honestly (maybe that's just cause I love Norman lol). Everything else tho...

The op&ed are amazing! Also, I like almost the entire season, and I would've rated it 8/10 IF IT WASN'T FOR THE LAST FIVE MINUTES OF THE LAST EPISODE!!!!

Agreed! The opening song is really good and deserved better! Also how is it that the animation in the opening is better than the animation in the show itself?

I still have the OP and ED on my playlist, love them! And since there's been SO much hate and this might be my only sight of a TPN S2 thread that contains positivity, I also want to say I liked the way they handled Norman's attack on the demon village better in the anime (although that's definitely the only improvement and everything that happens after Emma and Ray show up is...πŸ˜–)

Yep, always thought why such a good opening had to be wasted on that season

I haven't read the manga myself, but that was one of the only bright spots of the season for me as well. Specifically the part where Norman is watching everything burning and he notices the scared demon child; all of the sudden he instead visualizes his child self there crying amongst the fire (it's been a while since I've watched it, I think that's how it goes). The cinematography for that scene is excellent, and was a good way to snap him out of his bloodlust imo, plus it was a great depiction of trauma. Idk, despite anything else, I think that scene in particular was well imagined and directed and the imagery remained quite vivid for me.

SO TRUEEEE and the characters gradually being added to the op as they're shown was nice too, each ep i keep guessing who's gonna show up and stuff

ed is also GORGEOUS even though theres no animation for it, watching it was soooooo.. nice. so so nice. even if the episode ended on norman committing genocide

Cloverworks is an extremely talented studio. I especially hate how they just waste their Animators like that. Horimiya as well as Wonder egg priority had AMAZING production value but they just turned out to be meh at the end.
The production committee aren't giving this studio justice enough when they even have the potential to surpass Mappa.

Absolutely. It's so evident that they've got some terrific and passionate animators, but a lot of that feels wasted with certain directorial/management decisions. I definitely want Cloverworks to thrive and create amazing shows, especially because their art style is really fresh. It's just a shame that so many of their recent projects have ended up going down hill.

It’s the inverse for me, I thought the ending was the only good thing about the season. One of my favorites. The opening is pretty mediocre IMO.

Yeah, the opening and endings were nice and lot better than the show itself. After every episode since ep 4, when the episode ends and the ending starts, it was suddenly satisfying haha!
Reviewing is not easy.

I miss the opening, the ending and the soundtrack in general. Those aspects are pretty damn good here. I don't miss everything else about this season one bit.

Yeah pretty much the soundtrack in general was the only saving grace for this series
