Actually, she should have been able to match the speed of the music if ithe chorus were longer by even half a second. I get the sense they did it just out of desire for some sort of style.
At least it's still better than Mayoi Neko's OP. That was worse by far. |

The names (and covers) of the new OP/ED singles have been revealed, along with the B-side tracks.
Full info. OP's B-side is "Genius...!?" ED's B-side is "Our MAGIC" |

The ending feels somewhat...generic. It'll grow on me for sure, like most K-on music.

I love the new OP more than old, it's really catchy, and new ED is pretty nice need to listen to it more to decide how I feel compared to don't say lazy; though I love the animation for the new ED they all look simply moe in it .

I'll have to go along with the flow and say that I do prefer "Cagayake Girls" and "Don't Say Lazy" over the season 2 OP and ED. That said, both "Go Go Maniac" and "Listen!" do have their own charms - Yui's vocals in the OP may be hit-or-miss for some, but they do add to the whole "maniac" aspect of the song, and I found the guitar riffs to be pretty catchy. "Listen!", on the other hand, has a 1980s Archies vibe to it - it's not as heavy/hard-sounding as "Don't Say Lazy", but I can imagine that that's what the Archies would sound like if they made their music a tad more heavy and complicated. Damn, if only I didn't have a lot of assignments to work on and a lot of Nanoha crack!fics to write... I feel really inspired to work on a K-On!/Archie fic... *returns back to lurking to avoid derailing the thread*

I forgot the Archie parallel... I keep comparing it to "The Monkees" but yeah, same dots connected.
I didn't dislike the OP but I'm just about convinced the studio guys turn up the Alvin-Chipmunk knob to make it fit into the OP time budget. Yui's voice is about as high as Westerners can tolerate anyway (my wife varies between describing it as "dolphin-speak" or "bat squeak"... and she's a small japanese with a high-pitch growly voice herself) but it seems compressed. The ED is a great package (animation, music video, vocals, fashion, etc) but is just a bit short of Mio's character tune "Heart Goes Boom" in terms of catchiness for me. Whatever.. .both tunes help expand my "Folder of Things K-ON!" music nicely.

I fairly sure the main 5 seiyuus were taught to play their characters' respective instruments, judging by some other pictures and a live recording of a smaller event before that (though I have yet to find an actual video). Oh well, I want to see the DVD of this event anyway, even if they didn't play them. |
