Also, as a fan of Naruto, this opening used to make me tear up when I thought of the bond Naruto and Sasuke had and lost

@The Stegman: Totally forgot about Evangelion also one of my favorites. Such a great opening.

@The Stegman: I personally prefer the first opening, but that's just my opinion.

@DarkKnightDetective: I like the second one, not only because of the awesome music, but I think it captures Light's character evolution perfectly, it's fast, erratic, kind of crazy, and the end shot, showing Light being fractured like a mirror is just darn good imagery, not to mention him seemingly being in the Shinigami Realm at the end, perhaps signally that he became a Shinigami??

@The Stegman: Well both openings capture Light's state of mind at the time, and remember how the people that use the notebook, don't get heaven or hell? They become shinigamis, need proof?

@DarkKnightDetective: Yup, I saw that video before, that, coupled with the "Goes to neither Heaven nor Hell" rule, and saying they only go to "Nothingness" I can't think of anything more showcasing "Nothing" than the Shinigami Realm, I really believe Light is the coated Shinigami in the video.

@The Stegman: Have you seen the alternative ending where Near dies? I can't seem to find it anywhere....

@DarkKnightDetective: I don't believe I've seen it.

TMNT Japanese Opening 2. Best one IMO.

There are some pretty good openings here! This isn't my favorite but it's pretty good and fits the anime perfectly and Angel beats just left me in man tears.
