Complaints Against the New One Piece OP Song Surge to Toei Animation

Oh my god! You are so right! I even found a fake opening that Used this song! Ill see if I can find it…
-
i've felt like every opening after kokoro no chizu has all attempted (and failed) to be kokoro no chizu 2
personally, i don't think pop fits OP at all
ska is a better fit

That's right and as I said, it sounds out of place to you because you understand it.
The point stands.
-
But it's not only because I understand the chorus, it's the whole song, dude. Even though I don't understand the rest of the song, it still feels out of place, even if they never sang it in English at all.

Anything is better than Ska. I'd much prefer the new opening over Ska. I mostly like the new opening because of Yaguchi Mari:wub:.

And yet, as your argument to show it was out of place, you brought that up.
How is this even up for discussion.
You said the song doesn't fit.
To illustrate that point you brought up Engrish in caps.
This shows it had an impact on you regarding its 'fitting' or otherwise.
Now, whether you like the song or not, the opening style itself is no different from a handful of other openings including OP3 and OP4 which all came at tense moments.
That is to say, if you didn't think that song fit, purely for the song, then you must have disliked a number of the other openings as well.
Point still stands.
kiddy Engrish leads to teh hate.
"But there were other things tha-"
Right, and I'm sure it's just a coincidence that people bring that up each and every time.
If Kaze had Engrish lyrics to the tune of, "Fluffy Fluffy Loving Dear You Darling!", I guarantee it would be met with the same critcisim.
But…it'd be for other reasons...right?

Ska is fucking awesome. More stuff should be ska.
Particularly One Piece. Its lively, tends to have good beat, and tends to be cheerful, energetic and "we're having a good time" music. And its carribean in origin. You know. Oceanic and island-ey.
With trumpets.
Ska is awesome. +2 more awesome points for taboo for also liking ska.
And now, I'll reiterate what I said earlier, since most seem to have missed the point.
_The One Piece 12 opening is GREAT. It has an incredibly catchy beat and awesome bass-tone and guitar riffs. It dooesn't sound like most other Japanese pop songs, so it sets it apart into the grittier world that is One Piece for this arc. It has good, albeit low budget, visuals that give an idea of the badassery to unfold. And you can't even tell until you've heard it for the fifth or sixth time that they're speaking in childish terms, and I imagine it just gives it flavor to the English audiences, who then have to read subtitles to understand what is being said.
And since you just immediatley get and block out the childishness of the lyrics, even if you're a native Japanese speaker, all you get out of it is the pure music to the visuals, which is great. One of my favorites.
The One Piece 12 opening is awesome._

SKA won me over when I heard that brass playing.
-
I like the vocalists of Ska bands. Their voices are kuhraaaaaaaaaaazay.
-
One Piece. Ska. It works.
33lDmc88zI8Also. Dragonball Z has the most ridiculous STUPID opening ever. I love it, but… "If I find a dragon trapped in some ice I will teach it to ride a ball. I punch the earth in the face and it becomes angry! CHA LA HEAD CHA LA." Seriously. It captures the whimsy and tone and its ingrained in my head, but... I've never been able to take the words seriously.
I made it a point to never study the lyrics of the the We Got Power opening to avoid re-experiancing the travesty.

I always figured those lyrics were supposed to be akin to Goku's mentality.

Yeah, Did you know that they're the same band who sang "sailing day" for One Piece,
Below is the videoclip of Sailing day with running people cosplaying as Luffy, really hilarious check from 1:11

This song is the only logical choice for the next One Piece opening.

Well….the song is a ton better with One Piece for sure...

I'm only joking of course, I usually can't stand rap music, but something about that song just makes me laugh.
-
I never watch the opening song anyways, just fast foward to all the action. but the japanese have a reason to be angry.
-
Ok, I can't stop laughing at the song.
I find that more entertaining than the current OP though. I really hope they change that by the time the Impel Down arc ends. -

I really hope they change that by the time the Impel Down arc ends.I don't mind the current OP for this part of Impel Down but they REALLY need to change the OP before we get anywhere near the current manga events…like Death Metal should be appropriate...or maybe a Marilyn Manson cover...

If they change the opening they probably will not re-use the shots of the
! War , so by the time they actualy happen they will be showing some made up bullshit like CRS .

After this chapter i'm starting to fear that the guys ay Toei would have the balls again to surprise us with a other happy song. Especially when the manga took such a dark tone with the first death of a major protagonist.

Balls? I'm sorry, but their balls will be cut before they try that again…:ninja:

I hope not. I can't take another opening so happy. I skip it every episode.
And with this latest chapter, if it were me, I wouldn't even bother with an opening for that ep. It's so dramatic, the ep should just start with where it left off.
