Round 1, Match 08

Ending #15
Mushoku by Azumi Uehara

vs.

Ending #16
Overture by Koshi Inaba

Voting ends in exactly one week's time.  Ho Ho Ho!!

EDIT:  And Overture is victorious and moves on to the next round!

I'm voting for Overture on this one.  Does anyone else think the bass part of Mushoku is a rip-off of "Just the Two of Us"?

Not even close. I love Azumi, and I'm glad Aoi Aoi Kono Hoshi ni made it (Even though it beat one of my favorite endings ever...) but Mushoku can't even hold a candle against Overture. Why was it only used for seven episodes?

I just love that voice. *melting* Plus the clip is nice too, so Overture, go and win!

Overture is a great song
and is because of that receives my vote

I barely remembered the ending sequences for both of these.  Remembered the songs, though, but, can't go by that alone.  I don't even prefer one song over the other.  Both are "meh" to me for that too.

After watching them, I now understand as to why I had trouble remembering them.  Both were pretty lackluster and nothing about either really "stood out".  Unfortunately, I noticed this with the later endings and openings.  They started getting to the point where they weren't interesting to me much.

So, for these two, since I do like endings that focus on "Shinichi" at times, I'll go with Overture.

I'll go ahead and be the odd one out and vote for Mushoku. I prefer the animation sequence and the song itself.

Overture isn't that good by B'z standards but it's still better than at least half of the EDs so I pick that one.

Both bad for me... Gonna pass on this one...

you could almost say this poll is over...

...ture.

:/ I think what you mean is...that it's a different style than most B'z songs, because this is my favorite B'z/ Koshi inaba song out of all the ones i've heard (i have listened to some of their music outside of DC)

Don't like either. :/
No vote.

Mushoku

... but apparently I'm the only one. Despite it's not the best ending ever it's still a nice one, I especially like melody at the point where the refrain is about to repeat. I don't like the other one at all, so...

Technically you are not alone. Although we are in the minority. ;_;
