Honestly, I have nothing to worry about Elisa living up to Angela's work. I realise I'm speaking from bias here but still :P Such numbers were expected when you create such an alliance. At least now we know that all the people who were sacrificed to appease the gods didn't die in vain.

Indeed, it seems kind of quick to replace it. I read a few comments of dislike for Angela, but I like their style. I first heard their songs in Sokyuu no Fafner and really liked them. They're distinct (at least, Atsuko's voice seems to be) and give me fond memories of mecha series, so it was nice to have that in Valvrave as well.

Also, this isn't really that quick since we are half way through the first season. I know it doesn't feel like it, since it's been all going pretty fast, but yeah, we're actually already half done with season 1.

Openings and Endings seem very important to Sunrise in general compared to most studios I've found over the years. They always seem to find very good artists and IMO above average and/or unusual songs to be used for their intros and outros and the sequences themselves are usually quite memorable and stand out for me. They take it very seriously , possibly because of their old school approach to anime production, but also because they probably know it's a good way to win favor with sponsors and partners by bringing in a little extra revenue. Some people probably would think of it as a cynical cash grab by trying to work in as many popular songs and artists into the fabric of the anime as possible, but I personally appreciate the extra effort in music production and feel it gives their works a massive edge. |

Just started watching Valvrave. It's nuttier than jarful of assorted nuts, but damn is the OP good! I can see why Preserved Roses is #2 on the Japanese charts!!
Do you think Sunrise will likely use Preserved Roses for Valvrave Season 2? It's too good not to be used. |

I still remember when Sunrise animated InuYasha and its sequel. Ah, the OPs and ED music were amazing, especially Ayumi Hamasaki, BOA and Do As Infinity!! The OST composed for the series was amazing too! Pardon the old memories. InuYasha was the show that got me started on anime after all. |

Ooof, looks like I'm the only one around here who's not overly fond of the OP. The song comes across as being a bit generic and never quite showcases Nana Mizuki or TM Revolution so well that it lives up to the high billing. The ED with ELISA is a bit better, but the intro... well, not too sure about its ability to function all that well.
For me, the lone bright spot for this anime, musically at least, is Akira Senju's score. That man sure knows how to compose dramatic fare though I'll be curious if his music works well standalone. The last OST of his I listened to was FMA: Brotherhood and I was... less than enthralled with what I heard.
