Anime songs: March 2007 Archives

I love the artwork in "Death Note" the manga which was faithfully rendered in the anime. Some anime blogger said it was very clear what show sucked up most of the budget for last season's crop of anime. Well it shows.

"Death Note" has a new opening and ending song beginning with episode 20. I loathe them. Here's the first intro song which fits the protagonist's motives to a T. Just remember that Light Yagami is a sociopath who believes that the ends justify the means.

I summarized the show in two previous entries so I won't repeat myself.

A Jrock ditty worth hearing is "ASTERISK" by Orange Range which was used in the first opening sequence of that great action show, "Bleach." That's right. I said it. Great show.

I saw the real music video to this song on ImaginAsian cable channel. The band was good but their music video was l-a-m-e.

Now that the anime has picked up the storyline where Naruto is already 15, I'm suddenly feeling nostalgic for the early days of this long-running series.
This is the first ending song to "Naruto" called "Wind" by Akeboshi. I still think it's the series' best ending song. Remember when he was just a klutz? Well, he still is...sometimes.
