To those who've also seen Genshiken 1

Does anybody else miss the original opening song? I'll say the new opening animation is cracking, but the music by comparison is rubbish.
And for those who don't know, I mean compared to this rocking masterpiece,

I loved his hat He looks different to how I imagined a guy with that voice would look.

I also think the OP from Genshiken is better than the one from Genshiken 2 (can't remember the OVAs, if they had different music or not).

He looks like he'd be a member of Genshiken.

So OMG, I'm going to go against consensus and say I prefer the 2nd opening song. The first opening is, I grant you, very good, but Disarm Dreamer is, in my mind, all kinds of wonderful. Maybe it's just because I'm a big fan of Gundam Wing's opening theme, and all Gundam music is the same (ergo, Genshiken-parody-Gundam is similar).

Trust you to refer to it as a "rocking masterpiece" I don't know if it's disturbing or rather lovely that I can imagine you headbanging to the Genshiken 1 opening music ...after all, you have the hair for it *grumbles about a boy having better hair than me*. I definitely agree that it's a much superior opening song, although animation-wise I also miss the bit where the sun comes through the window to light up the room it was really pretty!

I'm going to be controversial and express indifference towards both OPs; I get my curtain-opening thrills from Chrono Trigger.
