#and b) holy shittt the way they make sousei look so creepy and fly-like with the big red visor eyes

actually making a solo post for this one because i think the sentai daishikkaku op is already a strong contender for not just op of the season but op of the year for me (and might be one of the most striking and memorable ops i've seen in several years)

pretty much every season there's at least one op song that goes hella hard and becomes my instant op of the season, but usually it's just the music (or primarily the music) that propels an op into first place for me

but this one! love the music for sure but it's the visuals that do it for me, the whole look and style of the op plus the themes? chef's kiss holy shit

there is something like... almost hauntingly beautiful about this to me. the puppet strings, the hands, the visages in the cracked glass, the stairs that don't go anywhere, the utter hopelessness of the shot in the palm of sousei's hand!! it captures the whole like hopelessness of fighter d's plight so well, but isn't a dreary op (just like it's a bleak but not dreary show)

anyway even if you aren't watching sentai daishikkaku this season i highly recommend giving this op a watch, it's so cool even as a standalone music video
