Traitor's Requiem
MUKANJYO

My favorite Jojo OP. Well actually, the final version of this OP is my favorite and should have been the one nominated but there's also more spoilers in it so eh. Anyway, fuckin love this song and OP. Does such a good job of recapping the events up to now and then establishing new stuff. AND THEN when you watch the show until the end knowing the OP....so many touches, so good. Especially love the moment when Giorno is kneeling in the smoke and the music ramps up to this epic conclusion. ETERNAL BLAZE is cute, I like the moment the two characters are first going through their magical girl transformation, the music hits a nice sweet spot there.

I was going into this match ready to be one of the only people to vote What's Up People as I love the song and the band so much. But fuck me, of course the thing that would get me to vote over the metal/metalcore song would be a post-hardcore song! Well, also that the MUKANJYO's OP itself is extremely well done and animated. But yea, love that a post-hardcore song gets used in a high profile anime OP, just like a metalcore song being used for a high profile anime OP in What's Up People. Some of those sweeping shots in MUKANJYO's are really stellar.
