Already they have to remind us that winter's coming? I don't want to think about snow yet...

It looks like this song is going to dethrone Glory Day as the longest-running ending theme in the anime's history. Anyone willing to bet that it remains the ending theme throughout DP's entire run?

 

[Geodude]

At least this song is much better.

And we don't get CLIP SHOW ANIMATION, plus the song changes.

Wow. They are really sticking to that song. I wonder if this is any indication of a change in the opening theme?

The opening will probably change at some point because we usually get about three openings per region.

The ending is probably being kept because its all about Dawn, so there's no reason to change it so they update it instead.

It really seems like they are going overboard with the Dawn glorification.

They have to remind us which female character is important as the lead.

Another shitty version of shitty ending.

Is it possible NOT to whine at that?

Is it possible NOT to complain for no reason? If you want to state a negative opinion in a thread whose audience will most likely have the opposite opinion, you had better back it up.

Well there seems to be a surge of Dawn fans lately..........

How to back up a personal opinion?

And I have to agree with Maxim. I never liked this song very much and it is annoying that they just redo it over and over again - just like it happened to Glory Day - instead of making a really new Ending.
