I’m not aware of any differences between the Japanese and American airings, so basically, America had to suffer through the same awful OP that the Japanese did.

Also, until I looked into it more recently, I had no idea that Koda Kumi sang the OP to the Cutey Honey OVA. In retrospect, the extreme pop-ish feel should have been a tip-off.

The Big O OP has also left me confused. Is there actually a Japanese version or was that OP used in both the Japanese and American version? Regardless, yes, that is probably one of the worst OPs ever!

The Cutie Honey iterations are quiet interesting. I didn’t realize how funky the Cutie Honey series was, and I think I’ll have to add it to my ever-growing backlog. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve replayed the Kumi Koda version, so thanks alot for the find! =3

@sung gyu
Actually, this panel took place after the Exhibit Hall had closed so yeah, you definitely missed out since this was an excellent talk.

I regret not having gone to this, as well as several other panels. I ended up staying in the exhibition hall for most of the time and just followed my girlfriend around. Twas a tiring day.

I’m looking forward to more of your thoughts on the panels you attended.
