I-n-j-i-n Report post Posted September 19, 2008 Maybe when I'm watching anime it's entirely the wrong kind, but I don't know any anime that is completely full of JPop, and what little Jpop I have heard in anime I have found enjoyable anyway, which says a lot cause I generally hate pop music.Also, we get the point, you hate Jpop good for you.J-pop tends to be actual POP with a lot of positive flair and more of a focus on variety and smooth sounding lyrics and musical themes. While American pop is mostly about having an attitude, girls looking like whores and guys looking like gangster wannabes and not giving a damn about the musical part for the most part. Also, western pop tends to have way too much faux attitude. You could just taste the typical American pretentiousness of most American pop nowadays. I don't blame anyone for preferring J-pop more simply out of philosophy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't blame anyone for preferring J-pop more simply out of philosophy.Hmm, yeah I guess that's true jpop is more sincere I guess. I've never really been able to put my finger on why I like the jpop that show's up in anime.I know there are some styles of it that I have found unappealing but that's just cause the stylistic sound of it is well not appealing to my musical taste.Also I feel like I'm bound to post something in this thread now just cause people keep doing it, cause bandwagons are fun, or something.

Lunarfall Report post Posted September 19, 2008 I was expecting the Death Note OP. Honestly, you can do better I didn't post that because everyone knows about Death Note.

SynthesizedStampede Report post Posted September 19, 2008 0_0. Um...wow I can totally picture that second Lupin song in the original post being played at a bboy jam.

Archaon Report post Posted September 19, 2008 this is how you do it here: This is from a game, though.WE'RE TRYING TO TALK ABOUT REAL MUSIC HERE KEEP THAT COMPUTER GAME SHIT OUT.But seriously, we've pretty much hit the "favourites thread" stage now. Let's keep it on topic and stick to anime, at least. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tensei Report post Posted September 19, 2008 Wow, you must be a huge idiot to criticize the FLCL OST for being bland. The Pillows are hands down one of the best japanese rock bands in a sea of visual kei fail, and the music really adds to the amazing atmosphere of the series. Then again I guess the fact that you're into ZOMG BIG BAND JAZZ ANIME OSTS gives you the right to look down upon 'mere' rock, which is obviously not real music.

José the Bronx Rican Report post Posted September 20, 2008 Boo to closed-minded opinions, but I'll take this moment to say I support the original love for Yuji Ohno's Lupin soundtrack. Been a fan of Ohno's work since Mighty Orbots. And if I ever get around to transcribing a sequence of the 1980 Lupin theme, OverCoat will get his remix soon after that.

The music is also very unique as well. Very... Okinawan + Italian. Strange mix but it works so well.And to top it off, they sing in Esperanto (!).
