@anon Opening 7? On this level? No way. Only the Anima clips can even be considered, and the rest were amazeballs no matter how many times I watch it. 15 for the most part had unique stuff that wasn't just copy-paste, yes the prominent Gajeel and NaLu parts were the same but those were really good shots. This OP was clearly copy-paste, same angles, same unrefined designs and everything. I'm sorry if you happen to really enjoy the opening but I personally don't and I even thought it was a more personal prejudice until I asked my otaku friends while I was in America and even they agreed and one of them listens to songs(in anime as well) like all the time.

Also to note, previous Openings(like 14) had stuff that should have been in the actual episodes but instead we got less refined versions. Here that is not the case, this is actually the exact same quality(that being:- unsatisfactory) and I feel that should never happen. An OP is something that must scream out regardless of the actual episodes and in this case it didn't.

@Mega Quite. ( ._.)/ Though I do say on the matter of the episode that minus the CS clip directly from the OP, everything else about the gate closure was really well done, the tone and everything was superb. Sadly the Dragon parts weren't as good. But at least we got more of the awesome-looking Black Dragon. It definitely wasn't a bad episode, but it deteriorated my view on the OP. But hey, like I said to my American friend, the Eclipse arc is a shitty arc so makes sense. Makes me hopeful of the next OP(unless it is filler) featuring the Sun Village. Only problem is the small amount of content to put in.
