Why is Brain's Base always choose an unknown band to do the opening instead of the mainstream ones?

dropped

>>31967563
Yeah they should get the Jonas brothers or Lady Gaga or something

>>31967563
Brain's Base isn't a big studio like KyoAni, Shaft, Gainax or Bones. Indie bands are cheaper than the mainstream ones.

They're probably just saving the money for the animation budget. People care more about high quality animation than OP/ED songs.

Nooooo

>>31967595
You act like all of /a/ wouldn't instantly fall in love with Lady Gaga if she sang in japanese.

What ep will it start in.

>>31967595
I meant the mainstream Japanese bands like Larc'~En~Ciel, T.M Revolution, or Mr. Children.

>>31967676
I wouldn't fall in love with that harlot if she sucked Miura off and got us a proper season 2 of Berserk.

>>31967563
Actually makes it easier for me to explore more into less known bands/artists in Japan.

>>31967696
The final episode which is 12.

>>31967711
>she

>>31967708
You're thinking about the last decade, bro.

There goes the Baccano opening...

They even got it to work without the jazz...

What?
Musical collaborations cost money.
The E7 ost and Infinite Ryvius ost for example cost a shit lot of money to make.

>>31967711
Good, because there will never be another Berserk anime.

And Miura will never stop playing Idolmaster.

Paradise Lunch (The band who did Baccano OP) isn't known so well because they're a jazz band.

But I agree with Durarara, looks like they're hiring indie bands. I'm a J-Music fan and I never heard of Theatre Brook or Rookiez is Punk'd before.

NO MORE ROAR OUT LOUDER!?

NOW I'VE LOST IT.

>>31967814
And they still haven't put out a second album.

What's the point of a new opening if the anime only has 3 episodes left?

This new OP will sucks. Hard.

>>31967856
>>31967730
Oh U.

Wait, I thought DRRR!! had 24 episodes?

>No more ROAR OUT LOUDER

It will be shit. No doubt about it.

>>31967909
it is

>>31967909
You got trolled. The exact episode number is 12.

>>31967856
is this some kind of bizarre spoiler meme?

>>31967938
What meme? It's the truth. Kamiya and Ono (the voice actors of Izgaya and Shitzuo) confirmed it in the interview.

I guess it will be an epic opening for the final episode.

There's 24 episodes.

Relax.

>>31968080
Yeah, no. Stop trolling.

>KAMIYA: Now the anime is in a state where you receive one piece of the puzzle per episode, but by Episode 12 you'll finally be able to piece them together into one picture. You can choose to rewatch from Episode 1 and observe just how these pieces came together -

>by Episode 12 you'll finally be able to piece them together into one picture

>You can choose to rewatch from Episode 1

If he didn't mean it's going to stop at episode 12 then I don't know what it is. Now quit denying.

>>31968224
So it really is 12 episodes? Goddamnit Japan, there are less and less 20+ episodes anime every season now.

>>31968224
oh wow an lj troll on /a/

>>31968288
Even though it's a translation from LJ, the source is from the Animage magazine interview, fucktard. Stop being ignorant.

You lose troll.

>>31968224
>>31968324
Eer... I think he meant that by episode 12 everything is going to be tied up and not one ep for every character.

>>31968402
>Believing the official website instead of voice actors
Voice Actors > Website Staff

Unlike small time workers who organize the website, voice actors actually participated in the show by voicing their characters. And website page could be updated or changed anyway.

Now enough with your trolling.

>>31968402
>implying that moon means what you think it means.

>>31968435
>>31968402

Don't bother arguing with them. They're either trolls or people who will say "lol i trolled you" out of anger once episode 13 rolls around.

>>31968435
Then why did he tell us to rewatch from episode 1 instead of continue to watch it.

It means there are no more episodes after 12.

>>31968490
Troll harder~

>コンプリケイション
complication? katakana sucks

>>31968523
well, there are several really nice clues in episode 1 which will become clear with episode 12. At least this is what I get from this.

>>31968523
Because not every body has read the novel and are wondering WTF since Baccano wasn't like this.

>>31968561
like "Dotachin te dare?" in the chat... when I got spoiled about it I was like "EPIC, this is why this line was bugging me all this time!!!"

>>31968224
Oh and also

>KAMIYA: I heard the second half is going to be still more different, and I'm really looking forward to it. Please enjoy watching - and of course rewatching - Durarara!!

>second half

This interview took place before episode 7. First half is 1-6 while 2nd half is 7-12. 12 divided by 2 is 6.

ITT trolls denying that Durarara is actually 12 episodes.

Not this again.

ITT: Trolls trying to say that Durarara! is going to be a 12 epsiode series.

>>31968623
Trying to hard.

>>31968722
>Implying they are trolls and not speaking the truth

Fuck off troll.

>>31968739
You can't even translate moonspeak, so why bother posting it?

>>31968783
He wants to intimidate other anons who don't speak moon into thinking he's right.

>>31968783
I don't need to translate anything for you, troll.

>>31968677
I've seen you at this 100+ times and I still don't get it. What's so fun about telling people a series is half as long as it actually is? Really, I'm confused.

>>31968803
I agree with you. Trolls are getting pretty weak these days, huh?

>>31968821
Fangirl/boy whose current idol is Izaya.

Can't wait for Season 2.

Season 2 will come after Baccano Season 2, btw.

Baccano Season 2 will never happen

>>31968863
Izaya dies in ep 12?

>>31968863
Why yes, how did you guess? And I happened to have translated that interview you quoted 100+ times as well. Fancy that.

>>31968920
Haha, sure. Whatever.

>>31968920
Anni stated that this anime is 24 episodes. Fuck off imposter.

>>31968953
Anytime. I'm flattered that you made sure every single soul on [a/ has read that interview, is all.

>>31968435
So bassically, after episode 12 things will get more awesome?

Also, who's gonna rewatch it for real?? I'm waiting for the Blu-ray rips

>>31969032
See
>>31968956

Look at the 3rd and 6th comment.

This is what the translator said:
>Anni fiesta: It's going to be 26 episodes for sure

I know she said 26 even though it's really 24. But it's still a 20+ episodes anime and not 12.

>>31969058
I like the series, but I usually wait a bit before rewatching.

And yes, there are 24 episodes. It's been confirmed by quite a few episodic websites.

>>31969032
...I'm not sure how you think /a/ works, but I didn't mean that Izaya fanperson is myself.

I've never read any translated interview.

>>31969113
I said it was 26 because the DVDs are gonna be 13 volumes in total. So that means we probably will get 2 DVD-only episodes after all 24 have aired on TV.
