#SEGAnews Sonic Dream Team - Animated Intro

Not only is this Sonic Dream Team a (timed?) exclusive to Apple Arcade, and a return to 3D platform for Sonic, and it has several playable characters.. but the game also has another lovely animated opening + kickass music from Tee Lopes?

Come on Sega, last time you did exclusives it was the awful Sonic Boom game or that generic Sonic Lost World (which this seems a tiny bit inspired by).

Wow! Rouge! And Cream with a key role in the store? And I don't trust the new sheep girl...

#OpeningTheme Peacemaker | Opening Credits | HBO Max

Is this the best opening theme I've seen in ages or what?!

I love a weird crazy memorable intro for a show. And James Gunn did just that with John Cena & co for HBO's Peacemaker:

#Tribute Sonic Logo Crossover [30º aniversario]

 This is actually fanmade done, but it is so well done!!!

Look at this amazing tribute through Sonic's history, made by the talented VicenticoTD! So good the official Sonic Channel had to mention and leave feedback on! It's on a whole other professionnal level!

I would love if a proper anniversary title or something got this animation at the start! 

Enjoy!

#DCnews Superman & Lois 1x01 Opening Scene (HD)

The new DC CW show is here. And while I doubt I'm going to go back to all that, you gotta appreciate all the little nods and references put into the first scene of the new show Superman & Lois!

Lots of great references, making this series reference basically all of Superman's history. 

The Golden Age costume, the first cover of Action Comics, Man of Steel, the Christopher Reeve Superman films. Heck even a little line "Thanks, my mom made it for me." from one of my favorite, Superman for All Seasons, by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale!

#MusicBOX GeGeGe no Kitaro/Kazuo Kumakura [Music Box] (Anime "GeGeGe no Kitaro" OP)

#HappyHalloween 2020!

Speaking of #musicbox, here's some actual music box music!

It's the wonderful theme of Kitaro on a music box! 

And it sounds lovely! Appropriately spooky and creepy too. I love it!!

#MusicBOX Jacobs - Gegege no Kitarō (ゲゲゲの鬼太郎)

 Here's some more Kitaro!

I truly adore this cover!!! Lovely voices! Insanely good music! They even sorta look like a buncha yokais having fun!


Easily my all-time favorite fan recreation of this classic opening theme.

Just in time for Halloween season...

#MusicBOX Gegege no Kitaro - OP song + GeGeGe no Kitarou Series 4 (1996-1998)【ED2】『Iyan Nacchau Fushi』by Yuukadan

 It's almost Halloween! Let's hear some great tunes from the classic long-running manga/anime series Gegege no Kitaro!

Kitaro's always had some great memorable opening that unlike most reboot shows/movies in the US, always kept its original melody intact throughought its various incarnations. It's an iconic Japanese opening theme. I love listening to its various takes over the decades. My fav is probably the original 1960s one and the 1990s movies version.

I really truly adored the live action films, it's nice to see a live take on Kitaro. The cast was great too. And the opening theme was perfectly used in the intro!

Wow! Check it out! 

And to end on a different note, I love how ending themes are either creepy... or fun yokai dance! This is one of my favorite ending musics, from the 1990s Kitaro:

Look at them shake it off! Haha! Adorably spooky!

#CartoonNEWS #openingtheme Steven Universe Future | Steven Universe | Cartoon Network

For its final post-movie season Steven Universe will get a brand new opening, as well as a rebranding under the title Steven Universe Future!

It's a remix of a song from The Movie. And features the new odd status quo of Beach City, and hints at the new villains for the last season:



Peridot even gets to mark the opening with her own Peridotness. Haha.

I cannot wait! Will it be stretched into more than one last season? Or will Cartoon Network simply stretch the remaining episodes over their weird schedule over a couple of years? Wait and see...

#Openingtheme Indivisible Animated Opening by Studio TRIGGER and Titmouse (FULL VERSION)

More games should get animated opening videos!

We already had anime studio TRIGGER reveal their opening for Shantae 5. And now we just found out they will co-produce the animated opening to Indivisible, along US cartoon studio Titmouse.

Check out Studio TRIGGER and Titmouse's intro for Lab Zero's Indivisible:



 It looks absolutely gorgeous! And it reminds me I was really waiting for this game a while ago. Almost completely forgot about it...!

#Fanmade If Stranger Things was an 80s Anime

Alright, this is particularly badass.

What if Stranger Things was an 80s anime? Created by animation studio Humouring the Fates, this parody fan film celebrates the popular series by taking its style and flipping it upside down.
Now that Stranger Things season 3 is out, time for a fun animated recap in the style of an 80s anime opening:

#OpeningTheme Shantae 5 - Studio TRIGGER Opening Animation

While I've been desperately waiting for some news regarding Shantae 5, WayForward came forward (no pun intended) with this awesome tidbit of news: renowned anime studio Trigger is making the opening intro of the new game (and the cutscenes?). Check out this awesome video, with singing from noneother than Shantae's VA:



And here's the official press release blurb:
 Presenting the Opening Animation for Shantae 5, created by none other than the revered Studio TRIGGER! TRIGGER producer Naoko Tsutsumi (Little Witch Academia) collaborated with Shantae creator Erin Bozon (Futurama) and Matt Bozon (series director) to bring the Shantae characters to life. Vocals for the opening were performed by Cristina Vee (Miraculous Ladybug), featuring an original composition by Mark Sparling and musical arrangement by Maddie Lim.

#AdventureNEWS Leisure Suit Larry - Wet Dreams Don't Dry Teaser Trailer

There's randomly, suddenly a new Leisure Suit Larry game out! And from a different (German) crew than the previous excellent "Reloaded" remake...!? And I wasn't even aware of it!!

So apparently a German dev team got the rights to the LSL series and made the long-awaited LSL8!

Here's the random teaser trailer:



Some art + the new updated main theme:



And some gameplay:



I'm not a big fan of the flash look/clean animation style. It's too... "digital", for lack of a better word. But I like the sound and the voice cast sees the return of the original Larry Laffer actor once more! And he made entirely the Reloaded remake on his own.

The game was apparently made on a very tiny budget, to launch along the entire series back on Steam and GOG. That's where you'll find this new episode as well, by the way.
