Following on from my previous new ED comparisons, the 14th episode of Pandora Hearts is greeted with a new ending (as shown above), oh and a new song, with the name and the artist yet to be confirmed. Marking the viewers that Pandora Hearts is at it’s half way point!
In my opinion the first ending was my favourite, as I clearly stated in my previous post, but this one is also as awesome as the last (Yeah, I’m bad at determine which good is good and which is bad =P)
This weeks episode of the economical anime Shangri-la (Episode 13) has surprised me with its new animation sequence in the ED (See above image to see comparisons from the previous ending sequence, which I happened to found in HD :D), not only with its complex plot, in which this case seems to be Kuniko acting as the leader of Metal Age invading Atlas through the skies, which causes a massive dog-fight.
With the left column side is the previous animation sequence, and the right column to be the new sequence.
It hasn’t got a new song, but new animation. With this weeks is “Hajimari no Asa ni Hikari Are” by midori. But what confuses me with the ED is that there are two ending songs sung by midori but played in random episodes, but I guess it was just to go with the mood near the end. The second ending song by midori is “Tsuki ni Kakuse shi Chō no Yume”, which I guess is played when we see a sad/climatic cliffhanger.
If you compare the two sequences together, they kinda really match since the same characters remain, also with new ones thrown in the shot. And it also seems that they used the illustrations from the original Light Novel series for the new sequence, and used the original anime art for the first.
I still wonder how will this series’ ending will turn out…
After lurking though the pages of the wretched site ANN, I’ve stumbled upon the Hayate Season 2 info page, and it came to my attention that under the Opening/Ending Theme, there seems to be a new opening and ending Theme soon. With the opening from the one and only KOTOKO, who sung both openings in the first season and seems to be returning to sing the 2nd opening theme, and the ending theme from Rie Kugumiya and Ryoko Shiraishi, the Seiyuus of Nagi and Hayate respectively, it looks like they’ve received the baton from Hina and the class president trio and are destined to take the main stage.
From my predictions, the 2nd ending theme will begin in next week’s episode, episode 14. Along with the new opening theme, which I’m guessing will begin around Episode 27, if the anime goes on for 52 or so episodes. Man I can’t wait :D
But to see if the information is genuine or not, I did some google search research on the Web, and it is believed to be true.
The opening and the ending themes are available for pre-order.
With the OP to be planned for release on August 26th, along with the ED to be out on September 9th.
I’m bored… Currently staying up late at night when I’m going to visit my cousins in a far city where I am… But yeah… With the full versions OP/ED of the second season anime Hayate, I thought it would be nice to have everything, the OP/ED/INST together in one place. Without further ado;
With the planned official release of the ED of the 2nd season of butler in-debt anime Hayate on June 10 this week, there seems to be retailers in Japan and online that is selling the album a few days earlier than the official release (I only found out about this yesterday), most likely either leaked/pre-order or some random illegal way I presume. Then just under a few hours the album made its way on to the Internet and is then putted up for download! (Use your instincts to find it, I’m not going to show links to download the song here due to obvious reasons.) So then I began to lurk various areas on the internet as an excuse to not do my homework (like now as I’m writing this) and hey presto I discovered lots of videos of the full ED on YouTube with an average of 400 views and a few ratings shooting up in just under a few hours!
Just to be original here’s the PV of the ED which made of win, starring non other than the ever-loving Hinagiku and her only! Which is kind of a surprise really;
God I just can’t get enough of this song! :D Heau heau…
