i'm still pumped to check it out.
now let's all pretend opening 12 never happened..
@Zach:
Just wait until 10:00PM EST and form your own opinion. You'll be happier that way.
Yeah … the KeyHole version was too crappy to properly judge it for me, so I guess I'll wait until then. =/
From what I saw/heard that would have made a nice ending, but ... meh, I'll just wait for better quality.
Ugh, I missed it =_= sounds like Toei fails once again when I read the comments here.
Yes, because the comments are so overwhelmingly negative.
What would you rate it on a scale of 10? me? probably a 7/10…
8/10 but compared to the previous one its over 9000 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
8.5/9 out of 10 .
Don't see it all, but it would be a 7/10 too… It was good, but I expected something different, a fast-paced music with little battle spoiler. And that wasn't that. But it was still good though.
Wait…
Yeah, a Slow, Sad song. TOTALLY Not appropriate for an arc…
! That ends in the saddest way any arc up to this point has ended.
I mean, songs being appropriate to the feeling of what's going on. I mean, what's THAT about?!

awww, yeahhh! animation looks ridiculously good at least.
Could you PLEASE put the image into a spoiler tag or something? It really stretches out my browser window, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
EDIT: Nevermind, he fixed it on his own.
GOD I'm so impatient! I wanna see this! Even if it is just an hour or more
One thing can safely be said for this opening; It fits the Marineford-arc so much better than Kaze wo Sagashite. Also, this thing is a freaking GOLD MINE for wallpapers. My first impression of the song is, yeah, it's pretty decent.
My rate wasn't on the negative side though. o_o I actually
liked the opening… But it wasn't the best.
In terms of where the anime is currently,
This opening has some great quality put into it, I really loved seeing those individual animations. I just wish they had shown a few seconds of the actual clash that's going to happen between the ten thousand marines and pirate crews, but oh well. Beggars aren't receivers. I just don't find this song choice fitting for what's expected to happen, it's going to be a rush for Luffy & the gang to scrape out of this alive. But overall, this was a decent opening.
As for where the manga is,
! Yes. This is a perfect song that embodies what has happened to Ace. But that'll happen months from now. If I were solely watching the anime series without reading the manga spoilers, I'd expect some heartpounding music to build up on the whole all-out-war theme that's going to happen from now on…

i really don't see why toei doesn't do an actual bump of chicken opening for the tv series. their style fit so well with movie 4..
and yes, yes..we're all secretly in love with rin, but we agree not to discuss it in front of her. :|
Wow, have there ever been two openings that were so radically different from one another? We went straight from fast and upbeat to slow and depressing. Well, at least it fits the mood much better this time.
! I also wonder how many anime-only viewers are gonna be lured into a false sense of security after seeing that final shot of Luffy smiling.

Just switched my laptop background to the Smoker picture. It pretty sweet.
Can't wait to see the opening.

So this opening has already atleast 6/10 by me… :ninja:
Youtube! Really bad quality though.

Eh, the quality's still kinda lacking and it's only 2 minutes till the official one hits FUNi's site. I can wait.
Thanks tho!
More like BAD. You can barely see what's going on.

9qnt93MRITo
well, that's actually a pretty great opening!
dunno if it fits the intensity of the current arc, but it's kind of nostalgic and sentimental. one piece is a totally sentimental series. definitely not a BAD theme. about a BILLION fucking times better than the last one.

Ripped right off Keyhole, what'cha expect? :p

Not terrible, but not my favorite. Set the mood for the arc fairly well, though. I give it a 7/10.
Thanks for posting this!
Hah ha, I love how in Doflamingo's action shot, it looks like he still doesn't do anything. Animation for those bits were superb. Liked the song, post my full thoughts sometime later, but for now, it's a keeper.
If this song was at a concert, I would so be holding up a lighter. I don't get the hate; it's a decent opening.
Ok finally saw it.
REALLY Good, I'm really happy with it. I think it captures the mood of the arc perfectly.
edit: wait, here's a better one:
4e1nkkl8KSg
Thanks.
I know it's been said before but the music makes it feel more like an ending than an opening. It's nice that it's mostly spoiler free it gave away Akainu's powers and has shots of all the big players.
Not a Share the World. But, I think it's because of Kaze blablabla, no it's not because of the last opening.
This opening, is amazing for me. I can't explain why, but it's.
9/10.
And I have so many options for wallpapers now… :ninja:
@The:
HD QUALITY OF NEW OPENING :o
fix'd for you.

Why does all j-rock sound like cover bands of american music from ten years ago.
I know the japanese can make kickass hip-hop but why not rock.
[hide]4e1nkkl8KSg[/hide]
I like the opening. Certainly better for this arc than Kaze wo Sagashite.
And the shots of the major players….awesome!
Really, really like this one. Was expecting a faster song, but this one works just fine, and is different enough from the other opening songs to show how important this arc is. I loved the action shots, as well.
Definitely an improvement over the last one, and I think after awhile, this may become one of my favorites. First impression is very good from me!
i thought the opening was cool
yeaaa!!!! The big players for each side show up!!! Good to see some marine coverage!!
really enjoyed the opening the second time around and in HD…great job imo
not to hate or anything, but I found that really boring. Half of it wasn't even animated…
Decent song imo, also I liked the phoenix colorscheme and the character collage.
Well, I was expecting a fast song too, but I really liked this one. Really it's kinda sad and yet… happy? I really liked it too because the current standard of sad songs here on Brazil are contaminated with colorful emos, and this one is much better.
Oh btw, didn't people wanted endings back? There's, a opening with an ending inside. :ninja:
Like the new intro.
The song not bad and it also spoiler free which good for fans.
Has some nice screens that would be good wallpapers .
This OP reminds me a bit of an ED, probably our first true ED-style OP since we've switched to OP only with this series. I really do like it considering what is coming…reminds me of another anime when it hit one of those moments. Though one thing I found interesting animated: how much Marco's abilities remind me of Tezuka's Phoenix.
at the very least, now one piece has a 'big kids' anime theme.
most one piece intros are way to bouncy and childlike for me. like the song or not, at least it gives off the vibe that some deeper crap is actually happening in the series.
AND FINALLY! NO shots of the straw hat partying or lying around or running along a goddamn horizon! any opening without those three things is fucking amazing!
Awesome opening is awesome. Did not meet up to my expectations at all but that's because the opening took a totally radical approach from previous ones. I was weirded out and let down at first but after processing where Toei was going with this, I applauded Toei for going for such a ballsy and fitting move and now I love it because I got into the opening's swing. it's SUPPOSED to be sad and as sad openings go, it's great. A very interesting new opening. I'm not gonna say best ever because it's impossible to compare to the other One Piece openings. it's in a class entirely of its own. But I definitely think it deserves recognition and respect as an incredible top-class opening just of a different kind. For me, it's gonna be hard to beat this new opening.
