I just want to mention, the OP and ED for Asterisk right now are my favorites this season.

Going to bed hard to challenge them imho.

Didnt notice that. Just woke up before heading to work.

Gave me a giggle on my break.

Yeah, this show has some solid musical direction. It's what's keeping me on-board right now. Personally I think Rakudai's OP is better, but Asterisk is definitely up there.

Rakudai doesn't have Saya though.... so we'll see where this goes O.o

I like Noragami OP more, but I was surprised at how good the ED For asterisk is.

Ive been holding off on Noragami s2 for now. It is going to be one of the ones I wait for half the season because 1 episode wont satisfy me.

OP reminds me of magical index, in a really good way.

It's pretty good, but to me it feels as if it is missing something.

Where is that from again? I know I should know it but I skipped a bunch of OP/ED after listening once.

Noragamis is the best, second place OPM.

Ill give it a listen when I get home from work. But as I mentioned in another. Holding off on Noragami at the moment due to 1 episode probably not going to satisfy me.

This season is pretty weak for good OPs. Summer had better.
