I don't like it :/ Its a bit boring and slow and I don't like the song.
Uh, I actually don´t like it that much....rather boring. >_>
Yeah, the song is.....the singers voice, it´s too high and kinda annoying.

Yeah, I think i will be skipping the ending until a new one comes out.
Yeah, I think so too.
Even the last one was better imo. >.<

To be honest; i don't like it too. Neither the song, nor the clip itself is worth to be watched more than 1 time. And i thought it couldn't get more worse than #11.
Well at least the ending was drawn nicely. I liked it (not just how it was drawn and animated), though not as much as many other endings. :) But yeah, it's a matter of taste. ^_^

I'm not a fan of the song. I really like the symbolism and animation though.

Whats the symbolism?
Also I think this is the first ending in which Rukia hasn't been beside Ichigo in a group setting :'(. Instead Orhim got the position but it is understandable since this is her arc pretty much, I mean it is based around saving Orihime
It was pretty much spoiler ending about upcoming arc.
Art was good, but song is meh...
Still artwise and songwise better than previous one... I mean com'on "What color do you want to paint your nails?" eh?
I´m disappointed that we don´t get to see
a close up view of Rukia....T.T

hmm...I was excited when I saw the prison bars and Orihime behind it...but that quickly changed into a: huh..this is booorink! It was nicely drawn and all but my ears still ring from the song so I say: meh.

I kind of liked the animation this time around, although admittedly it was quite boring. The song however was definitely not to my tastes. I look forward to checking out the new ending 13 episodes from now. :D lol

Ending of the halycon days. Maybe foreshadowing would be a better definition in this case . . . ? :o My bad.

Her barrier looks a lot like a setting sun, IMO.

Uhh... In almost every ending there is a sunset along city. Those two not related remotely to be honest.

Yeah. The outro is alittle boring. I don't think the song is bad, though. It reminds me of a Yui song, really.
The animation is not half-assed this time, too!

07-04-2007, 04:43 PM
I think the art is pretty alright. It's just a bit of disconnect between the scenes, that's all, but the song is probably the worst. The whole song sounds like a cat was being boiled alive.

True, but I'm just comparing the two most recent scenes from the endings (10 and 12):

Its all interpetation though.

It was ok. The best part for me is that it stuck with the canon material, like the opening. Now I am even more confident that it will be going back to the main story very soon. My guess is by the new opening and ending, 11-12 episodes.
I liked how it was all the humans on this one. This is probably the only ending like that. Would have liked a litte more upbeat animation, but what they choose fits the song, so it's all good. My favorite part was when the camera came out from that long view and slowly zoomed in on everyone on the roof.
Not my least favorite song, not my most. I'll get used to it I'm sure, like all the rest.

The animation is better than last time, the song is terrible, and the scenes are a bit boring...an empty room and class?
I think it would have made more sense, and been more efficient to show Orihime in HM at the end.
ps: and it fails for a lack of Rukia.

It could have been Orihime's thought then. It just doesn't look right that they shown her looking at the moon in HM then cut back to real world. That could be an explanation.
I like the animation but it's same old same old. Even the second ED has Ichigo and Rukia watching sunset. Why can't they change the location for once? And the song fails.

The worst ending in Bleach for sure.
Animation is good,but i agree with the others,it bored me to death.
Previous ending sucked also,but this one is beating everything x.x
I will just keep skipping it.
Riekie
07-04-2007, 05:29 PM
Okay..on the bright side of li..err this ending...it is the shortest one:D hahaha no wonder really..but I am glad it didn't continue on and on like the previous with Ichigo running for 40!! seconds.

Yare, it's not the shortest (would be fine if it was so), afaik the 1-3 ending only went for 1 minute, while this one has the standard 1:30 minutes.
They should have switched the 11th and 12th Ending, so the Canon Ending would belong to the Canon eps and the rubbish ending to the filler eps.

Agreed. That would have made more sense. But this works too. Reminds you that the canon material is still to come.
For me, this ending isn't my least favorite. I think the worst one was Happy People. Even Movin!! was worse then this one, in every area.

I was suprised that this ED was 1:30 min long. The ED's before had been 1:00 min
It wasn't the best ED I watched but I'll bare with it. It was boring and the song..dunno, I didn't like it that much. But at least the drawings were good.

I liked it. Everything is nice, in my opinion. I liked it, I loved the beginning especially where we see the moon and the bars and then Orihime staring up at it. :) Not a lot of people will get this. ^^
I would make some comments on the art/animation but I can't bring myself to watch it again. Seriously, the song made my head want to explode. Maybe I'll just turn down the volume and watch it.

I really loved the animation. Not sure how I feel about the song, however. I just know it was a hell of a lot better than the previous ending *shudders*

Squeaky from the word go I up and all for Chic Rocker my fave JRocker is Rion . I listened to the track repeatedly over n over and I concluded this Chatmonchy seriously must be kept miles away from a microphone .
Art I cant tell I saw it in FLV format. Visuals could have been more refreshing more of HM like the OP and more Arrancars. Visuals bored me could have been edited better made slicker. And the track just isn’t pleasing to hear I mean you get disturbed just listening to it.....
The last 3 EDS had the worst tracks in comparison to previous ones. The last best Ed IMO was June - Baby its You after that its been nothing but downhill ... The undertone of the visuals was Ending of Innocence?
Also people detest from posting manga spoilers this is after all the ANIIME ONLY section.

The animation was much, much better than the previous one. I especially liked the start where she looks up at the moon (it's only now I get the symbolism for that, haha! >_>; ) But the rest of the scenes were meh.
And the song! Oh wow, it's very ... special. I like the Ska one better since it was more upbeat. This one sounds more like a young girl constantly whining. If they were going for a depressing mood, they hit it very well (but for reasons different from the ones the editors were probably hoping for). -_-
Why did they skip hints for the arrancar arc? No Luppi at all? Man, this guy gets no love. =/
Shannon
07-05-2007, 03:42 AM
The singer sounded really screechy, and it's not one of the best ED's they could've made, imo.
And it was slow, too slow for my tastes.
Positive side: I like the colors of the sunset. :D

I love the new ending, well the animation for it, not so much the song. I like the song better than the previous one though as the lyrics at least connects to the story whereas the last one was about painting nails. As for the content of the animation, I like the simplicity of it. It's a contrast to the opening where the animators added as much as they can and pretty much spoiled everyone. XD

the ending lacks rukia.
anyways, regarding the song, I kinda cringe the first time I heard it. I actually thought it was by Yui, but it isn't. It sounded better the second time imo. It's prob one of those songs that'll grow on you.

Song was horrible imo. Singer ruined it for me.

I am in general agreement with the majority -- Unlike the opening song, which actually grow on you the more you listen to it, this one only gets more annoying :eek: Animation is better than the last one but more lack originality, couldn't they come up with somethimg better for Orihime other than copying from the Rukia's prison scenes? Copycat versions unfortunately, always come across as inferior. And the endless group close up is as bad as watching Ichigo's rear end running :eek: I am guessing that they are to busy preppoing for the new movie!
True, but I'm just comparing the two most recent scenes from the endings (10 and 12):

Its all interpetation though.
To me the left pic is Ichigo-centric, the persons next to him, namely Rukia and Chad are the ones that closest to Ichigo. The picture on the right is reflecting the fact that upcoming epoisodes would be centered on Orihime (I dont remember being in the middle before) and in that Orihime-centric picture she stans with those she considers closest to her -- Ichigo and Rukia. The close up ending I think is a hint of the chapter 238(?), one of the most pivotal point in Orihime's life.
At least it's less annoying than the last one.
I completely agree but the song still doesnt really get me hooked.

Er, that's not Rukia, that's Tatsuki.

Yep, I agree with Nocturne on Tatsuki. I noticed that everyone was saying it was Rukia at the ED theme, but I squinted and realised it was Tatsuki. :D
Shannon
07-06-2007, 12:45 PM
^ So, Rukia's not in the ED at all, then? Okay.
Wow.

07-06-2007, 03:00 PM
I like the new ED.. well atleast I like the video part of it.. The music hurts my ears -_- Seriously.. it's not singing.. it's yelling.. Anyways the ED is just peacefull, and pretty cool :D /Still I prefer the first and the 10th ed :D.. or maybe the third one too :P/

07-06-2007, 05:48 PM
I like the animation. The singing, however... It's okay at first, but then it does turn into like, yelling. And hurts my ears XD But other than that, not bad for an ending. Still miss Houki Boshi XP

This Clip was only a recyclement of old ideas.
1.) Inoues Room in HM: We've seen that already in the opening. And i liked the Light effect of the OP more.
2.) The Classroom: Yea, we've seen that too, even the same frame.
3.) The Ending Scene with all standing in front of the town. Good Idea, but also reused from Sakurabiyori
And the Song itself was also recyclement, from the garbabe pail in Inoue's room.

Er, that's not Rukia, that's Tatsuki.
It is? Hey that works even better -- Orihime's flank by people dear to her heart (wheher they are aware of it or not :p) , Tatsuki and Ichigo. Wow this means this is the first time Rukia is not in the ED, which officially makes it the worst ED for me. :cool:

Can't say I liked the song. The singer's voice was far too high pitched. :/ The animation was ok, but I think I liked the last ending better.

I know most don't care for the current ending, but I'm just curious if anyone had a listen to Nipponsei's release of of Daidai full version plus 2 more songs. Both versions of Daidai sound exactly alike, just one shorter then the other.
The other two songs, Cosmo Town and Real are actually pretty good imo. Both would have made a better ending then Daidai. haha. I'm really diggin Cosmo Town right now.
I bought the single this weekend. The song is really not my style, the singer does have a really squeaky voice. I dread if anyone wants to do this in karaoke. >>
Here's the image of the free sticker that's on the Japanese release. Ichigo, Aizen and a very worried looking Orihime.
