Talk:B'z

Expensive?

Have you ever noticed that the animation for GIRIGIRI chop and Shoudou is made up almost entirely of cuts from previous openings? I wonder if this was because the cost of using their songs was just so high that they had to save on opening animation sequences? 'Cuz it only happens with those 2 openings...

Mm, that's indeed a very interesting observation. I wonder if we could find more facts about this. This would be quite trivia-worthy for those two articles. --Maurice 07:09, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

I know, and I mean, it's also not that unlikely, B'z had already established themselves as one of Japan's biggest bands by that point. I mean, hell, the last half of the GIRIGIRI chop opening just starts showing videos of the two of them rocking out spliced in between the animation cuts. NakagawaRyou 07:16, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

I've wondered about this, too. I tend to believe that Shoudou was made a clipfest for the sake of continuity (Though to be fair, some stuff in it was new, like Kir, and Ran wearing the fancy dress while Conan points and goes "SHOOOOOOOUUUUDDDDDOOOOOOUUUUUU" (God how badass is that?) to no one in particular,) with GIRIGIRI chop. *runs off to listen to Shoudou again* CarpetCrawler^{message me} 08:04, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Is there anyone that DOESN'T like these guys? :D Glad to see their article created! CarpetCrawler^{message me} 08:02, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
