I just find it hilarious as heck :lol:
Yeah, that intro is just funny. "I, can . . . I can get it off." :lol:

One of my favorite intros of late though is the opening of Paranoia Agent. I just love the song and the visuals that go with it.

Openings:

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu ( I love this song!)
Himiko-den (Again, this song is wonderful)
Vision of Escaflowne (The song, the visuals, this was the first opening I started memorizing the lyrics to)
Gunbuster (Such a bouncy song)
Magic Knight Rayearth (1 & 3, didn't like 2)
Oh! My Goddess (The first MP3 I ever got)
Slayers Next (Give a Reason is probably my favorite Megumi song)
Fafner in the Azure (Shangri-La is the first opening I watched every time since FMP?f)
Lodoss War TV (Kiseki no Umi is probably my favorite opening song ever)
Azumanga Daioh (Such a fun song! And the frenetic images make it even funnier.)

Endings:
Card Captor Sakura Movie 1 (Just the scrolling text is boring, but the song is wonderful)
Chobits (Again, boring visuals, wonderful song)
Princess Rouge (The song (used in the trailers) is what made me buy it)
Magic Knight Rayearth (ED 1; SD characters, fun song)
Miyuki-chan in Wonderland (Such a fun song, the lyrics are histerical)
Devil Hunter Yohko OVA 2 (Same as Miyuki, just the line "kick him in the crotch" makes me fall over every time)
Sorceror Hunters (Boring visuals, but a Megumi/Masami duet sells this one)
Lodoss War OVA (I adore this song)
Dragon Half (Probably the best ending song ever conceived)

I must say I like the D. N. Angel opening theme but the ending(s) are just well a little irritating for me

I'm big on the BGC2040 OP, mostly because I like the instrumental work.

My personal favorite OP, though, has got to be the .hack//SIGN OP.

"Deep in the night
Far off the Light
Missing my headache.

Visions of light
Sweeter delight..."

I've pulled too many late nights geeking to not connect with that.
