Just the same hair color...
And the pose....
That is called a plagiarism
The poses really aren't the same, and at least with the 00 opening there is an element of symbolism to the poses. With Precure it's just girls with feathers, as far as I can tell
and colored butterflies
and background color...
I KNEW IT!!!
ha!!!
EPIC FAIL for this series...
First the shitty story in the 2nd season and now a suspect of plagiarism... Oh please Sunrise, enough of this nonsense that you have made already...
They see me trolling...
LOL
Sunrise sucks :~
oh how we know this
Gundam "tribute" to Pretty Cure???
Nice... someone in the Gundam 00 staff is fan of magical girls Precure :P
I'd call it a tribute, Sunrise giving a shout-out to their favorite magical little girls
Screw Plagiarism. This one's better and hotter.
Screw Pretty Cure. Who the heck watches that.
Screw 2ch. Do I need a reason?
BTW, is the last one Sumeragi or Tieria? O_o
And screw you for being ignorant.....
Ignorant to what?
for the plagiarism..
It's a serious case actually...
Maybe inspired by, and as a tribute. I doubt a production like this would be pressed to find ideas for an opening animation.
this one is better.
wtf is pretty cure.
fuck 2ch they need lives.
and screw anon you dont know jack shit
I Felt the Grace. <3
Nice one
Yeah...like this is the first time this happenes.
To be 100% fair, only the one with Anew is exactly the same. It's either a trbuite, or someone though it would be funny.
Added in the OPs...
The new OP song is horrible anyway.
maybe they did it as an excuse to use a new one.
Personally I like the song... It's just doesn't fit with Gundam stereotype... Oh well it's just a personal reference so don't mind the comment.. Besides, this series is already become a piece of trash anyway...
"Gundam Stereotype", please enlighten me to as what this consists of.
JUST WILD BEAT COMMUNICATION
FLYIN' IN THE SKY
MEN OF DESTINY
Actually, there IS a pattern. Gundam Seed, Gundam Seed Destiny, Code Geass...they all had a final OP that wasn't really......"there" with the rest of them. Just didn't fit it. I think it's a way of saying "it's almost over" and "evrything will be fine"
Not exactly plagiarism. For the op to be plagiarized , it would have to be exactly the same.
uh, no...something does not have to be the same to be plagiarized.
Oh lol. Anyone REALLY believe that Sunrise STEAL smthing from some shitty mahou-shoujo series?
Btw, S2 openings sucks, Ash Like Snow and Daybreak`s Bell was much better.
Why not?
Now Sunrise is really sucks...
http://s03.2log.net/home/yosaba/kyap1/jinki/jinki34.jpg
Kinda surprised this hasn't been posted.
Let me fix that for you...
I don't know anything about Jinki, but oh wow
No one knows Pretty Cure, who cares. Everybody knows Gundam, so 00 series has the right to do it.
I beg to differ. The Pretty Cure franchise is the biggest thing in the magical girl genre since Sailor Moon.
Pretty Cure is way, way more popular in Japan right now than Gundam 00 is. It sells more merch, has better ratings, and more people could tell you what it is.
Gundam 00 is hardly known at all outside of Akihabara set, all the main train lines are advertising Zeta Gundam stuff still.
Oh for Haruhi's sake...
In terms of story, Pretty Cure is way better than Gundam 00s2... That's the truth...
And how stupid can u be? Plagiarism is a plagiarism..
"No one knows Pretty Cure, who cares."
I fell off my chair laughing at that statement. Dude, just because you don't doesn't mean everyone else doesn't as well.
Sorry if Iam not a fag who watches all shoujo series. ^^
Don't be sorry about that. It's completely normal. :P
and I though that it was a whole sequence in the op to be copy to be called "Plagiarism"
It just four hot ladies touching a butterfly (=_=)
can't helped to detect certain hatred and biasness for gundam or sunrise series
PS: who watch pretty cure anyway
agreed here such a letdown. I though that it would be a carbon copy or something. And that series pretty cure something what are they touching?
no fun
I sorta see a resemblance but it's kind of different in a way. Plus, I can't imagine the director to be the type to watch magical girls shows.
Surely it would make sense to compare the butterflies in the Gundam 00 opening with the butterflies in Turn A Gundam?
Turn A Gundam uses an attack called Moonlight Butterfly, and the 2nd ED Diana transforms into a butterfly with the colours blue, red, yellow and purple.
And if you look at Asian mythology, what do butterflies signify?
Well I'm a bit rough on it myself, but a person who dies can be reincarnated as a butterfly, if you look at all those four characters, they've lost someone important to them:
Sumeragi - her crew and her 'love interest;
Feldt - Lockon Stratos
Louise - both her parents, and maybe her love for Sagi?
Tieria - Lockon Stratos
And honestly, I don't think there would be many people here who have watched Pretty Cure and defend it over Gundam 00, if anything, it's just people being biased towards Gundam.
That's ANEW, not Tieria.
AHAHA TIERA AHAHAH
Lol, Artefact stirring the pot again without doing his background and fact-checking research. I guess I should mention now that Toei and Bandai are partners and that if any part of the new opening was meant to be an homage to the Precure intro then they probably procured permission. Call me when there's any news of Toei ACTUALLY suing Bandai/Sunrise and let's just leave 2ch to it's own affairs.
Artefact trolls?
Stirring the pot/=trolling. ;)
You seemed to like my Mizushima post, at least!
Who says I don't like this one? Anything that leaves me a chance to add something new to the conversation I consider worth my time in reading, even it happened to be the brainchild of little more then 2ch speculation.
I couldn't care less either way. You may have noticed I merely reported the comparison and then posed it as a question - I certainly did not accuse them of plagiarism, and I suggested it may be a tribute - there's no evidence either way, so it's best left to readers. So enough of that.
If it wasn't for 2ch, no one would have seen the comparison between Gundam 00 and Pretty Cure.
Don't see why so many people are raging and calling it fail.
The opening is just a trainwreck, all there is to it.
