I dislike this ending. I find it obscene in a non-funny way. Also, the "ababa" and "hogya" are annoying. I only watch the first 7 or 10 seconds which shows "dramatic" images of Satou, Yamazaki, Misaki and the Senpai with a nice piano/guitar tone. XD

Heh, i don't mind listening to it as a solo song.. but as a ending song, it just destroys whatever mood i'm in from watching the previous episode.
Who knows what the new ED has instoor for us. As for the OP.. if its going to change at all, it has to be a Round Table Featuring Nino song. <3

Aww, new ending? I actually liked the ending song, not only because I like the music, but the theme also fits rather well. After all, what is a hikkikomori other than someone who refuses to (or in a lot of cases, can't) 'grow up' and face reality head on?

haha, the series is certainly getting more and more interesting
I'm just very doubtful how they're gonna animate the later chapters of the series... it's just getting _much_ more extreme (if you manga readers know what I mean) especially Spoiler for Don't read this _HUGE_ spoiler unless u read the manga...:
anyhow, i'm dying to wait for the next few episodes being aired! !! ! great series. |

Personally I think the ED kicks major butt. I also find it obscene but in a hilarious way. I think it is a perfect match to the show. The OP is also quite wonderfull.
Now I know that we'v seen Misake working in a manga shop and walking around with her mom, but this is what leads me to believe that she could be a reformed hikkomori, or a hikkomori on her way to recovery. Another thing that leads me to believe that she is (or was) a hikkomori is the very advice she gave to Satou that he just needs to view everyone as lower than himself. Working in a Manga shop makes sense for her because she could easily view most of the customers as lower than herself. Also the only other scene where Misake has been in public, she was with her mother. And as we have seen from Satou a hikkomori can go into public if s/he is with someone they feel comfortable with. However the scenes of Misakes room present her as a neat clean organised person, completely the opposite of Satou's room. This lends support to the reformed hikkomori theory. I also like Tritoch's idea that she has a minor case of social anxiety. Although where is the line drawn between minor social anxiety and a full blown case of hikkomori?

i love the ED, personally. i'm tired of the same old saccharine and slow melodies sung by either a pop singer or one of the series' VAs for every single anime series that has a relationship in it.

Count me in as one of the persons who love the ED. The lyrics are witty and well-written, and the song in general is a wonderful jab mocking all the "akachan ningen"s out there. The animation is great too... The inclusion of the big-boobed maid was also a great bit
I love the rock themes and songs in this show, they're excellent. One of my favourite tracks on the OST is ... since I don't know how to romanize it, 君に崩えホえ (they sing kimi ni hoe hoe). It's been on heavy repeat for some time. Normally I'm not much of a rock fan either...

For the love of anything, I hope they don't change the OP as well. That opening animation with the music is one of the top OPs of the year. Unless the next OP can top this one - which I doubt, I don't see the director of the previous OP working on another one for Gonzo.

Does anyone know if the Purupuru Pururin song is going to be on the OST or not? Oh and are you people serial about disliking the ending is totally apeshit insane in such a funny way that it even blew my mind the first time I saw it, and you know what its different and unique. I love it as well as the opening which kind of sounds like Elevator music.

Well, all I could come up with is... Ringtone info is here and here. Midi version is here. Henshin Mahou Pururin info is here. I can't pull up its release info on CD Japan. It's not on the OST by the way. Shiroth said that it would have its own release. I can't read Japanese so that's all I could come up with in this thread. Maybe, some of the others could say it one more time.
