Why did they choose to score the intro of their edgy scifi/cyberpunk/psychological horror anime with an English soft rock song?
I forget but you can go read about that
a lot of anime music was just whatever western shit the director liked and had the rights to use back then, it usually isn't any deeper than that
>>215449512op you don't seem to understand
What do you think of the writer’s live action flick? It was only released on vhs
>>215449574is that you didn't put your grasses on yet anon?
>>215449512Its sort of like Yuyu Hakusho where the music itself doesn't fit the series but the lyrics kind of do.
>>215449720never heard of that, but I wish yoshitoshi abe had done more stuff
I don't believe there are 30+ year olds posting like this, so why are zoomers watching Lain?
>>215449512They grunged the fuck out of everything back in the 90's
>>215450148because lain is a good anime
>>215450572the best anime, some could say
>>215449599a shame OP seemed an honest man
>>215449821>put my grasses on>everything in my life went wrongalso GTO had a better opening
>put on my naitsumeru grasses>everything rooks same
>>215450572>>215450148Lain is a good anime, which is something Zoomers don't like. So his question stands.
are we talking about "The Light Before We Land" by The Delgados?
>>215450977idk some faggot zoomer youtubers made a video essay about it or something
>>215449512As long as it's sung by a Japanese woman, it's a nip song.
>>215451048It's just weird, it's been one of my favorite anime since 2001 and now suddenly a bunch of zoomer troons became obsessed with it in the last few years.
>>215449512Could be worse.>Animu episode starts.>Well-regarded Japanese auteur screams RAAA EEE AAAHH out of nowhere.
>>215449512Not at all uncommon in late 90s/early 2000s anime. Hell Evangelion famously ended with smooth 1950s American jazz
You know you're watching KINO when the opening has real-life footage in it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__S0LypWBVE
>>215450977I'm 24 and I like it. I don't know what to tell you other than I just have good tastes. I also like Steins;Gate
>>215449512I never thought of it as not matching, feels like something Lain would listen to.
>>215449512>PRESENT DAY>PRESENT TIMEHAHAHAHAHA
>>215449512Style
>>215451884Please tell me, what was it with that sentence andthe laugh as well? How does it relate to anything?
>>215451723
>>215449512japs find english stuff cool in the same way otaku jerk off to anything from japan.hope this helps.
>>215449512Lain is pseud garbage and I will die on this hill.
>>215449512Have you tried asking them?
>>215449512Is it worth watching this again if the last time I watched this it was the year 2007 in the anime club?
>>215449821
>>215450842I dunno about better, but certainly underappreciated.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JGl6UzfPkE Oh shit. How did I forget it was L'Arc~en~Ciel?! I recently got a VHS of their music videos.
>>215450842GTO as a whole is underrated. At least it hasn't gotten recognized so much in recent years. I forget if I or my roommate had a bootleg poster we got in Chinatown of it up in our dorm. I think it was this image from the first volume. I know he was really into the series.
>>215451420This but the endinghttps://youtu.be/bJieaH23524
I have the Japanese CD single of the opening song atop my desk next to a custom Lain lamp. Plus I got an old figure and the full Boa album too.I also have the other Lain albums, but those are HK bootlegs I got in college.
turns out, little alien fella
>>215451420this is one of my favorite intros
>>215452659>>215451420The op and the score for the series was by Susumu Hirasawa, who did the series music for Berserk (though not the OP and ED). He also did the score for a bunch of Kon's films. I love Paprika's OST and have had it on my phone / mobile player for years.
>>215449512>Hear the lain intro at work one day in the mining industry.That was pretty random. I usually only hear electronic pop and nigger shit in that area.
>>215451510Fry me to zah moon
Every anime should have British music for the OP and EDs.
>>215449512I remember this OP playing in the background while I was a kid playing with my fake laptop and building bionicles, shit was awesome. It was simply pristine kino.
