It sounded okay; I don't think there was enough energy on the new singer's part (or maybe I'm just overly used to Mr. Kageyama belting out lyrics with passion so the new guy paled in comparison) but the song itself is nice.

Haha. It did sound exactly like a Super Sentai opening.

I'll have to wait to see how it is with the actual animation. Sometimes that can make all the difference to me.

Reminds me of Magiranger mixed with Dan Dan.

Motherfucking crowd being all pumped up and shit. :<

From what I could hear, it sounded okay. Kind of like Dan Dan. Except I'm not really fond of Dan Dan. I'll wait until April 5 to serve judgment.

By the way, what time is that? I know due to the timezone difference, it's like a day before or a day after.

This opening is a bit shorter than any of the ones we've had in the past, but I'm sure there is also a full length version.

I think it sounds really cute and upbeat, but it's certainly different from anything we've heard for Dragonball before and I can't really be sure if it fits the atmosphere. I'll probably like it once I see the animation.

When I heard that song, I started unconsciously humming "Kimi ni Kono Koe ga Todokimasu Youni."

Therefore, I love this song.

Not only that, but even Makafushigi Adventure sounds a bit more upbeat than this. So it might not be that we're just used to Kageyama pumping us up like hell with all the music he's been giving us. :p

But like and everyone else said, it might be better to hear it once it airs.

It was ok. It should have been more catchy or upbeat like Dan Dan, I think.

Btw, loved watching the full-length FMA trailer this guy got footage of.

Good thing super sentai themes usually kick ass then! Dai Sentai Goggle V <3

Honestly, though, it sounds nice, but I'd like to see it matched up with the animation.

Really... after listening to it... I don't wana pass judgment on it at all.
Between the background noise and chatter, the fact that it's live and not studio recorded, and that it's cam quality means this is REALLY not the best representation of the song.
Gonna wait till air to judge, but thanks for the preview!

I will also not pass judgment. I will wait until I hear it under better conditions. Not anything too exciting from this clip though...

Okay, It's true I'm little dissapointed because of big pack of Yamamoto's previous themes (Cha-la Head Cha-la, Biggest Fight, Ore wa Tokoton Tomaranai!! etc.). But It's Yamamoto's sound again and seems to me like fusion between Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku and Chala Head Chala, but I'll wait for full version in high quality.

PS: thanks to VegettoEX for re-direct)))

I would love that, but I'm just not hearing it. Can't wait to hear the final broadcast recording of it though.

Sounds ok. I don't really like any of the Z songs so If I end up not liking this it won't be a big deal.

Hey, I liked it. I think you guys are just spoiled by Kageyama's rockin' jams and consistency, so anything different to that is like a drastic change. I think it'll work out perfectly fine, though. ;)

Hell, there were a couple of parts where I almost thought that guy was Kageyama, what with the forceful vibrato and all. Not too shabby at all. :)
