The Ancient Magus' Bride Season 2 Part 2 - Opening | Nemurasareta Lineage

Watch The Ancient Magus' Bride here! got.cr/cc-tambop

[@mariridono9492]

I like to think that one of the symbolism of this OP is Elias stepping out of the stage to let Chise in as a teacher letting the studen doing what they learned on their own. While Chise is taking care of everything that is happening in the stage (the kids, the giant monster...) Elias is clapping at her to encourage her to go keep going. ❤👏

[@sammydavid74]

holy shiet this is accurate af

[@redscout2412]

Clapping in theaters can also signal the end of an act/scene and it would make sense for Bonehead to signal such things because many different scenes happen in the opening That I guess it's he's way of saying progress is only going forward but only needs confirmation hence the signal

[@MarvyG23]

One of the best openings of the season

[@g.shultz2512]

And one of the best animes of all-time

[@jackieleggs9274]

@@g.shultz2512 Couldn’t agree more 😊😁💀❤️👩‍🦰🥀✨

[@iAmPimmiCue]

Personally I think the first OP for season 2 is a lot better. The first OP of the Anime is still the best

[@shizukagozen777]

​@@g.shultz2512 Both statements are totally false...

[@shizukagozen777]

​@@iAmPimmiCue Right ? I find this OP to be quite... disappointing and lacks the magic of the other OP/ED. Even the song is meh...

[@ryozen5616]

This is by far the best Opening of the series in term of animation, Junna dont dissapoint never with her beautiful vocals, also the animation of the monster in the drop have some scenes with Madoka Magica Vibes.

[@kristinag7621]

I’m wondering if Gen urobachi or shaft were involved because I was thinking the same thing

[@Marsdesu]

​@@kristinag7621Gekidan InuCurry were responsible for creating this monster. They also work on Madoka Magica Witches, so the aesthetic is similar

[@kristinag7621]

@@Marsdesu that makes more sense then. Especially the scenes when the witches first appear they use a lot of collage like and hyper realism for the scenes in both Madoka and here

[@Aashbard01]

She certainly does not disappoint, her music is both transcendent and beautiful🤗

[@shizukagozen777]

Who cares that the animation is better if the OP sucks ? It's like people say that whenever they need to find something positive about an anime but they find nothing else to say...

[@idkdc2615]

The singer, the direction, the animation, this is perfection

[@Aashbard01]

My thoughts exactly, mate😇🤗

[@avaturnow4095]

I’m sorry I’m absolutely losing my mind at Elias just ASCENDING at the beginning

[@dejitarumango5457]

Fr he rly did a T pose and yeeted away 😂

[@angelaspecialfox_ro289]

ye same! i wonder what this OP means. 🤔

[@macandcheese4138]

Bro straight up HOVERED OFF THE SCREEN

[@superpancake4872]

@@angelaspecialfox_ro289 I think it might be Elias being analogised to being a "deus ex machina". As I think you could argue that Elias could be considered a Deus Ex Machina, as he jumped in out of nowhere to solve many of Chise's issues in season 1. Except in this case he's leaving the stage, meaning that Chise is finally fighting solely under her own power, without the protection of Elias. Obviously in this case the Deus Ex Machina is being invoked in it's literal original sense "God from the machine", in ancient greek theatre the actors playing gods would be lowered down from above by a machine, and being gods they might easily solve problems of the mortal characters in the play, which eventually gave rise to our modern usage of the phrase. Additionally I think the "T pose" is an intentional reference to Jesus on the crucifix given that the creators were seemingly invoking the original meaning of "deus ex machina". Not that Elias is literally Jesus, but just a reference to the imagery. And this is also the first OP where we don't see Elias protecting Chise, the only other time he's in the opening he's watching from afar. So I would say Elias leaving the stage represents Chise finally being able to fight under her own power without the constant supervision of Elias.

[@teili5685]

FR, i can't take i seriously. He is like Jesus 😭

[@princealigorna7468]

I do love seeing Chise breaking out of her shell and coming into her strength.

[@katiedaniels9803]

she looks so happy and healthy compared to S1

[@Huckmon365]

Character development 😊

[@jackdotzler6115]

Junna really outdid herself with this one, I'm glad they made a habit of collaborating with her for this series

[@marcosdiaz6875]

on my opinion this anime is the most underrated anime in this years

[@MrMastrmonstr]

I recommend it to all my friends

[@TheHalloweenSpirit]

TRUE

[@koukhang9118]

There is so much symbolism in this op that reveals so much of the story to come. I have not read ahead but man I can feel the conflict oozing. Sorcerers who can wield the natural fae for good and those how taint it into the greedy tragedy of their own undoing. Those who inherit a life of tragedy dealt to them by their own family. The humans who smile on fleeing happiness and the faes who live to exist and Chise who lies in between the veil, who witnesses all happiness and sadness. GOD I wish I had such a clean and crisp vocal as JUNNA. Its so smooth and so vibrant.

[@charmi4630]

Ok but can we talk about the reference to “The School of Athens” at 0:45 Absolutely beautiful

[@parasyte8230]

what is the school of athens? edit: oh that painting, i know that one! great job at spotting that detail!

[@charmi4630]

@@parasyte8230Yeah the painting made by Raffaello!! Idk how but I noticed immediately the reference 😼

[@altaris6593]

Whoa damn!

[@k3vstr0y3r3]

damn, never noticed that! I compared the depiction from the intro to the actual painting and tried to combine the characters... Chise would be either Plato or Aristoteles, Elias would be Pythagoras and, funnily enough, ruth would be Diogenes, the philosopher known for being followed around by dogs!

[@CITYSTARS217]

Honestly.. I think this is one of my favorite openings to a show ever.

[@TheAvengingAngels]

This is one of the best openings I've ever seen. And I loved the first half opening, too. Elias ascending at the beginning is crazy and when the characters turn into kids and are stabbed, nuts.

[@ViyukoChan]

This anime is really one of the best of the season. People should give it a chance because the story is very good and the characters are incredible.

[@Ender__Wa]

[@Gabrie_silva]

Essa cena me lembrou madoka mágica

[@LordOfGrimm]

Agreed

[@Lord_Sunday]

I love how everyone has their own tragic backstory. It makes it hard to guess who the twist villain will be.

[@matthewmuir8884]

...I genuinely thought it was really obvious who the twist villain was, to the point where I thought the real twist wasn't going to be "who" but "why". I thought that mainly because the show wasn't exactly hiding who the evil mastermind of this season would be and there's only one person connected to them who could be the twist villain. But yeah, the show does provide a good number of red herrings.

you are not the only one🗿

[@k3vstr0y3r3]

i actually compared those to eachother, and tried to figure out which character matches with what philosopher... Chise matches with either Plato or Aristoteles, Elias matches with Pythagoras, and, funnily enough, ruth matches exactly with Diogenes, the philosopher known for being followed by dogs all the time xD

[@-Tsukiix-]

The vocals are pure gold! The animations and background music are by far the best I’ve seen from this series too. My favorite was the ending vocals which had a sort of nostalgic feel to it

Yes, this anime is worth watching. The story is good, the characters are very well-written and interesting, and the magic system is very unique (magi cast magic by working with fey and spirits).
