The second Japanese X-Men opening theme. I'd seen the first before -- it's easy enough to find if you want to see it yourself -- but I think this one's cooler and the song's so much better.



Speaking of Japanese opens for American shows -- here's three Japanese opening themes for the 2003 Ninja Turtles series. Unlike X-Men there's really no unique footage -- not much, at any rate -- but mostly they do a good job showcasing some of the cooler shots from the series and the U.S. opens. The first one sounds a lot like one of the Naruto opening themes; the third one is a pretty decent rap song with a lot of English language lines in it.
