hey everyone this week I'm at magfest so
today I'm going to interrupt your
regularly scheduled deep op analysis for
a short little PSA about an issue that's
very near and dear to my heart you've
all heard of same face syndrome perhaps
you've seen its effects in things like
every light novel adaptation ever it's
truly a terrible Illness but there's
another persistent illness that plagues
the anime industry one that's far less
talked about some of you may have seen
the anime gate some of you may have even
enjoyed its opening theme song by the
akosi Rockets but do not be fooled
there's something sinister going on
behind the scenes of this show that
could possibly threaten the entire anime
industry also life on Earth as we know
it probably should have led with that
second one it might not be apparent the
first time you watch the series in fact
depending on how much anime you watch
you might not notice it at all yet
that's what's so Sinister about it at
first the op seems inoffensive the
direction is a little lacking sure and a
lot of the shots are very uninspired but
as a whole it's just an another generic
bad op that wait [ __ ] how did we start
watching the second one I guess I must
have gotten confused since I reused so
many shots is this better no we're still
watching the second one all right I can
make it work while we're looking at the
second op the problem is and now we're
back to the first one I'm not even going
to try to sort all this [ __ ] out the
problem is that by the time you get
around to the second opening you may
have started to notice that the akaboshi
Rockets have something of a limited
range or maybe you haven't noticed in
which case I have news for you the
second season of gate actually uses a
different song from the first I know I
could scarcely believe it when I was
told either but if you look on Wikipedia
you can see that they are in fact
different songs the lyrics and as much
as 5% of the Court progression are
totally unique and the second song is a
whole octave lower I assume they pitched
it down to get around their company's
stupid YouTube copyright robots this is
a serious problem the akosi Rockets
suffer from something I call same song
syndrome they keep making the same song
over and over and over again for every
anime they work on and the more we let
them get away with it the lazier Japan
is going to get if my predictions are
correct by 2027 75% of all anime theme
songs will start with a guitar
going and features slightly screechy
singing backed by totally forgettable
repetitive drum beats yokoo will succumb
to a meth overdose Jam project will be
out of business standards for car
manufacturing will plummet worldwide Nan
B heo will never make it to the moon and
World War III will be upon us though
that last bit isn't directly related to
the other stuff you might think I'm
exaggerating but then consider the fact
that you've been listening to high
school of the Dead's theme song for the
last 2 minutes and you didn't even
notice anime has faced threats before
like that one J-pop song that was in
every 9s show but nothing of this
magnitude if the a bosi Rockets aren't
stopped Humanity will be doomed if they
are stopped Humanity will still be
doomed but at least the soundtrack of
the Apocalypse will be a bit less shitty
and syy do what you can to fight this
Menace and if you must listen to an
akosi rocket song remember if you've
heard one you've heard them all I know
this video is a little on the short and
uninformative side compared to most of
what I put out but hopefully I got a few
Chuckles out of you guys and to make it
up to you I'll be back next week with
two full whatson and Ops for dirty peir
and ni Joe which I'll get done just as
soon as I'm over my magfest over and
while you're waiting if you haven't
already you might enjoy watching my
recent breakdown of a certain steamy
scene from Welcome to the NHK if you're
