Dreamysyu Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 So, what are your favorite opening movies in the VNs you've already read or want to read? As for me, if I had to pick one opening, I'd choose Steins;Gate 0. Spoiler It really shows how popular the SG franchise is, because it looks like bigger budget went into this OP's production than some VNs have a a whole. Incidentally, I haven't read S;G0 yet, so I can't say how well it connects to the actual story. There are a lot more openings I like, including the Minori works or Muv-luv Alternative, but I would also want to mention the second opening movie from Hello, Lady!. It looks pretty spoilerous, so watch on your own risk. Spoiler The reason: I wasn't particularly interested in the title before I've seen this opening, but it looks so intriguing so I was immediately sold out, and now it's one of the top untranslated VNs I want to read.

Zidan209 Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Oh well, u found my avatar And indeed, SG0 has a great one Quote
onorub Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 If we're talking about intro movies in general, i'm going with Divi-Dead (it's great once you know the context) Spoiler If we're talking about proper openings with songs, i'll probably go with this one from Phantom of Inferno Spoiler Onodera Punpun 1 Quote
Thyndd Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 ef (the first tale) and eden* have to be my favorites. My God they are beautiful. Dreamysyu, Kenshin_sama, Homufate and 2 others 5 Quote
MaggieROBOT Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Wow, the thread already open with S;G0, what an overkill! Anyway, the openings I like usually are ones that I thought that the songs went really well with the pics they selected! My picks (yes, they are BL games, but there's no sex, kiss or whatever in these openings, you can watch or just hear them just fine!): Shingakkou... Spoiler THIS SONG IS SO... And for a game I never played but dig the opening... Sweet Pool. Spoiler Dreamysyu 1 Quote
Testarossa Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Choosing only one is just painful, so I'll post some of my favorites. Fortissimo//Akkord:Bsusvier Spoiler Hatsuyuki Sakura Spoiler Pastel Chime 3 Bind Seeker Spoiler Edited January 11, 2018 by Testarossa Dreamysyu and Kenshin_sama 2 Quote
Turnip Sensei Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 All the VNs in Steampunk-series have god-tier openings. Ones from Sharnoth and Gahkthun being probably my favorites Spoiler I also have soft spot for the OP of Kusarihime. It's kind of endearingly retro Spoiler Dreamysyu, Silvz and MaggieROBOT 3 Quote
Ranzo Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 This is still such a amazing and ambitious opening Canicheslayer 1 Quote
r0xm2n Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Of all the VN's I've played so far.... Mostly for that theme song! Quote
Tamaki Sakura Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Hatsuyuki Sakura and ef -the first tale- have already been posted, so I'll go with... Spoiler Natsuyume Nagisa Spoiler Grisaia no Kajitsu Spoiler HapyMaher -Fragmentation Dream- Dreamysyu 1 Quote
Silvz Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Can't post Umineko openings since I'm too biased to be taken seriously (great ops) Funyarinpa 1 Quote

My God they are beautiful. sometimes I hate myself : I totally forgot about these two beautiful openings ( I already finished them a long time ago) Having said that, I have a weakness for this intro : Let's be clear: just like LB! Ex's intro, it's probably the music that enchants me And I almost forget another one of my favorites : Edited January 12, 2018 by Canicheslayer Funyarinpa and Thyndd 2 Quote
Hiashi Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Totally biased, but I love Rewrite's OP, Philosophyz Dreamysyu and Stormwolf 2 Quote

Huang Ling Yin Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 i like its anime-style... just little bit confused though, why japanese call this as "movie" and not "video" instead... Kenshin_sama 1 Quote
Clephas Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Barbarian on the Groove is perhaps one of the best VN opening bands out there... Spoiler It needs to be mentioned... before Pygmalion signaled the beginning of the end for the company, Propeller produced some of the best OPs out there. Spoiler And just to put something here other than chuunige openings... Spoiler Quote
Codesterz Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 One of my favorites is the opening video for muv luv alternative though that's more for the song than the video. Quote

littleshogun Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 As for mine, quite a lot to choose but for now guess I'll just settle it with both Soukoku no Arterial and Madou Koukaku opening here. Enjoy. Soukoku no Arterial Madou Koukaku Quote

Riku Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Based on the 3 most listened VN openings on my phone: (so more like, favorite opening song, not counting how well it goes with the visuals) The full versions are better (mainly the third one, there is a long silence in the OP version, but in the full there are lyrics here) Edited January 13, 2018 by Riku Dreamysyu 1 Quote
