This is a formal message to Mr. Dog himself. putting the masterpiece known as "Great Days" so low on the list has direspected me and my entire bloodline. Mr. Dog, all i will say is that wherever you go i will be lurking nearby. -Sincerely, Mayormonke
I'm convinced Chase has a stand that gaslights people into thinking everyone hates it so people can keep mentioning how much they love it. 50% of opening discussions always end up in this loop.
"Everyone hates Chase, well I'm special in that I actually like chase!!!!!" Bro where is this Chase hate. Chases biggest hater must be hitchhiking with Kars in space, they were likely one of the worlds biggest menace only to have vanished without so much of a trace, embedded in a few peoples memories and collectively ran with as a truth.
@@Dadude572Nah the Chase hate used to exist because it didn't have the same flair some of the other openings had. But now it's the "cool thing" to like Chase.
Heavens Falling down is fire, I think the movements of Emporio shooting Pucci is pretty great … Okay but putting Fighting Gold that low is actually insane, it’s so stylish and melancholic and when the chorus hits it‘s genuinely inspiring, idk what happened here
I also really liked it, but I get his criticisms. Most of the shots before the second time they show Pucci are pretty forgettable (except the one with Pucci and the Sons of Dio that one goes hard).
I love how End of the World uses the singers of the three previous openings, since all three Joestars are present in the final battle in some way (even if Jonathan’s presence is just a body) and it is a culmination of Parts 1, 2, and 3.
Yeah this is not talked about enough. It really felt like the culmination of everything (and tbf as far as the anime staff knew back then, it was, given SC even has a proper "The End" rather than "Part 3 The End"). I know they couldn't really do the same with Heaven's Falling Down but I wish they tried, since there is also a Great Days version with them.
I find it so creative how the MIH version of Heavens Falling Down is a call back to End of the World (Part 3) When Jotaro and Dio have their standoff (In the opening)
It goes full circle, given the very first frame of Sono Chino Sadame is literally a panel of Jolyne. Visual-wise Heavens is Falling Down is easily the hypest.
I believe that black background red outline shot in Stand Proud is the camera doing a POV trench run up Dio's glistening, muscular body, with the final milliseconds being plunged into his eye
Same. When I first heard it, I low key kinda hated it, but by the end of the part, it became my second favorite the more I listened to it. It’s weird how that works. Usually, when you hear a song over and again, you grow sick of it. With Traitor’s Requiem, it gets better with each episode.
The fanmade opening of SBR is epic af. David Productions will have to take a TON of effort to make a more memorable intro once they start animating part 7
Ok, Chewie likely just misheard things or doesn't have super bougie headphones like I do, but that "beep" in Great Days he's talking about is a cowbell used by the drummer. They're pretty common amongst drummers, and when I went to listen to the opening on my phone I didn't even notice it because I was listening for a beep like a mouse click on a sh!tty album. I thought he was gaslighting me with an edited in sound for a bit until I listened to both this video and the opening side-by-side. Other than that, it's a good list, and Chewie's explanations were entertaining. I appreciate videos like these that give me a new perspective and let me notice the flaws/shortcomings of my favorite openings (or just things in general)
it's so similar to traitor's requiem to me (mediocre opening with a slower song, most of the visuals are things that have already happened, is carried by the alternate versions,) really puzzled me that it was polar opposites on the list
I agree though that Traitors Requiem is the best Jojo Op. The visuals go hard, the lyrics about overcoming fate and Diavolo’s interruption but Giorno reversing it and ascending his stand are all so epic. There is nothing like it in JJBA. Every other take was hotter than the sun tho.
I can't really agree with the visuals because they are too spoilery even for Jojo. I was so baffled when I first saw it. The entire final confrontation is built up as a "who will get the Arrow first" and the opening literally has Giorno piercing himself...
@PAARDJVCKK "This bad thing was supposed to be bad so you can't critize it" when is this nonsensical argument going to die in the Jojo fandom, it's the Tooru logic lol
stone ocean is personally my fav in every regard i Cannot get enough but generally speaking this is a very respectable list (the heavens falling down slander tho,,,, i cannot)
Visually speaking i consider the less appealing 3D opening (Heaven's Falling Down) to be better than the best 2D openings, also it got the best villain interruption ever
I don't know where he gets off calling that part of Jolyne looking at the beetle pendant ugly. The cel shaded Borderlands-y look that he picked up on I think looks amazing.
I know you say you don't like the music or you do like it for some, but you NEVER explain why. This feels more like a visual critique than a musical one; and as an artist and animator, most of those critiques don't make very much sense. But I respect your opinion no matter how much I disagree with you in many aspects. Might make my own version of this video in response to yours.
What makes end of the world even better is that looking at it it hasn't even really changed between v1 and v2, just actually showing dio and the time stopping and I think that is just amazing.
It’s impressive to me that I can still play all these in my head (besides heaven is falling down) despite not having watched the show in a few years If you asked me to recall an opening from any other show… I’m gonna be honest I can only remember Dragonballs openings
@@mountain-yw9jc not bad pick, but I see why y'all think it's good. my list is (from worst to best), Sono Chi No Sadame, STAND PROUD, Heaven's Falling Down, Fighting Gold, Great days, End of THE WORLD, Breakout, Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town, Traitor's Requiem, Bloody Stream, then Chase. Feel free to disagree, then we can talk.
I gotta say i probably have listened to bloody stream atleast 200 + times while reading because of that *ACTION* MAN ITS SO GOOD! BEEN LISTENING FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS NOW
The chase suitcases are meant to show Kira acquiring killer queen, you notice each of them from random locations have blood on them until the one that’s from Egypt, where Kira found the arrow and attained a stand ability so he could dispose of the bodies easier
Well, didn't think I'd find an opinion about the Jojo openings that is actually so similar to mine. I agree, A traitors Requiem is the absolute coolest OP non-negotiable
I'm glad else feels the same about Fighting Gold. The opinion on great days was a really hot take for me, cause I really love it. Also called me out on playing it in my car 😭 I'll let it slide, cause you acknowledged Chase and the share the same opinion on Fighting Gold Anyways here's my ranking: Great Days Chase End Of The World Crazy Noisy Bizzare Town Traitor's Requiem Stand Proud Bloody Stream Stone Ocean Sono Chino Sadame Heaven's Falling Down Fighting Gold
Chase is actually one of my favorites. Most people say it doesn't fit the vibe but like its supposed to represent the shift from normal stand fighting formula to the more murder mystery aspect
But I don't think it fits that that in the anime - it starts with the Rohan arc which is hardly a change to the formula, and ends just after Kira assumes his new identity, which is where the "mystery" aspect really takes centerpoint. Really, the only episodes it feels like it fits in is the Sheer Heart Attack arc.
just saying, at the 6:00 mark, that beep he's talking about, im pretty sure thats just a hit in the dome of the ride cymbal of the drums set used in the song. if im not mistaken that is. (im a drum nerd lol)
My personal list of jojo ops would have to be this: 11. Fighting gold 10. Sono chino sadame 9. Heavens falling down 8. Crazy Noisy Bizzare Town 7. End of the world 6. Stand Proud 5. Great days 4. Stone Ocean 3. Bloody stream 2. Traitors requiem 1. Chase (not a joke I love chase)
Heaven’s Falling Down in the lowest tier is unreal, I really like the opening both songs and animation. I would’ve preferred Fighting Gold as the bottom tier But fr there are no actual bad JoJo opening, all JoJo opening is fire just like there’s no actual bad parts
Damn fighting gold and great days in the bottom? Those are like my top 3. I think fighting gold’s visuals are some of the best in the series and coda cooked on the song. Great Days has a very catchy and happy tune that brilliantly contrasts with the dark turn that the story takes near the end of Part 4.
Why Heaven’s Falling Down and Chase are the best JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure openings. We all know that JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure has great introductions all around, but there are two openings that stand out among the crowd. Those two being Chase, by Japanese artist Batta, and Heaven’s Falling Down, by Japanese artist Sana. They both excel in similar ways. Such as visuals, audio, atmosphere, and just how much I like the part in general. Let’s start with Chase. As stated earlier, one of the reasons I like Chase so much is the visuals. If we look at the 7 second mark, we can see soup cans, but instead of soup, we see hands. Abiding by the fact that Yoshikage Kira has a hand fetish, if you will. Then, at the 10 second mark, we can see seemingly innocent suitcases that are leaking what appears to be blood, this may confirm to the watcher that the “peaceful” town of Morioh may actually be much darker than what meets the eye. Next up, around the 19 second mark, we can see a hand touch different photograph, then we see the Killer Queen “symbol” appear on said photographs, causing them to combust into flames, showcasing Kira’s ability to blow things up, then when the flames settle, the title of the part appears, then after Shigechi feeds pigeons, it cuts to Kira cutting his nails, and later on in the part, it is revealed that his nails grow at a accelerated pace when he has the urge to kill. This could allude to the fact that Shigechi is soon killed by Kira. There are also some silhouettes of unknown women that are in the reflection of his nail. Around the 30 second mark, we can see a rat that later proves to be a major opponent, to someone even like Jotaro, then a second one scurrying away a few frames later. We then see a silhouette of ECHOES act 3. Then at the 41 second mark, we can see the stand Cinderella, and Yukako with only one eye visible. Showcasing the test Koichi has to go through to regain Yukako’s original eyes. 5 seconds later, at the 46 second mark, we can see two people holding hands, my best guess is that it is the younger version of Kira, holding Reimi’s hand, in other words, this is a capture of him taking his first victim. Only a few frames later, we see his dad holding the stand arrow. It then transitions into us “flying” through the ghost alley where we see Reimi. And finally, it cuts to Josuke reaching his hand out the silhouette of Kira himself. My next reason is the audio, it has a catchy toon that you can hum for hours on end. Another reason why I enjoy this song so much is because it fits so well with the visuals. I find myself in a trance everytime I watch this opening because it just feels so fluid. The lyrics also fit so well with what the main cast is trying to do, of which is to chase the Morioh serial killer, which also fit the title so well. Finally, The picture used for this song on spotify just look so cool. To further expand this argument, the atmosphere of the opening truly affects my personal rating of the intro. The lack of vibrant colors for the majority of the opening up until the very end do a great job of displaying the dread and hopelessness they cast must feel while on the hunt for this elusive serial killer, but when they get so close to finding him once and for all, that hope is reignited, and they have a new found determination to keep looking, that may possible segway well into the final intro, great days. Finally, to finish off my segment for Chase, I must admit, It is affected by how much I like the part, I would honestly tie this with Heaven’s Falling Down, if it weren’t for the fact that I feel like the part has a horrible way of disposing of villains, overall, Diamond is Unbreakable is my second favorite part, (so far, I’m currently reading Steel Ball Run) but I feel like the whole “I defeated you, so we’re buddies now” trope got old after the 5th time it happened. But overall, it had by second favorite villain, fourth favorite JoJo, and second favorite cast (even if it is quite large)
Essay cont. Next up on my list, Heaven’s Falling Down. By far my favorite opening. But let’s get started with the visuals. Not only is it the most recent 3D opening, it’s also the Best. It quickly starts with a flashback to the Jotaro versus Dio fight at the end of Stardust Crusaders, which morphs from Dio being defeated to Star Platinum’s Disk getting carried off by the pigeon. The camera then pans downward to display the accident that put Jolyne in prison in the first place. It then cuts to Jolyne in the visitation room right before Pucci attacks, while the Pendant falls slowly into Jolyne's hand while the camera cuts to right when White snake starts attacking. It then cuts to Jolyne holding the pendent close, as she supposedly misses her parents. It then cuts to Jotaro recovering in an undisclosed location. For the next 11 seconds, a montage of the characters' backstories flash in front of their silhouettes. It then shows Pucci and 3 other profiles later revealed to be Dio’s sons (besides Giorno). This is where the biggest change happens. Itn the first version, Jolyne is shown floating through the air only to land seconds later to allow for her and her teammates to land a barrage of attacks. Then at the 1:08 mark, we see F.F. floating through the air, supposedly going to heaven. After that, we see Pucci and Jolyne facing off in the water. We then see flames in her eyes, known as Dark Determination (correct me if I'm wrong), where the camera sinks into the water, then waves move out of the way to reveal the title card. But if we go back to the 0:55 second mark, we can see Jotaro use Star Platinum: The World to stop time, or at least, try to, as it doesn’t fully start, Leaving Jotaro on edge for the approaching attack. Then, as a call-back to the first opening, Manga panels of other parts flash, leaving Jolyne in the Joestar mansion, fighting a greater threat that would ultimately lead to their demise just like her great-great-great about 150 years ago. The camera then pans to the different Joestarrs and the important item during their little quest. We can then see the Joestar mansion breaking apart, possibly symbolizing how the universe is “breaking” only for it to start anew, so like the universe, the entire Joestar lineage is breaking only for it to start anew in the new universe. Finally, it cuts to Jolyne and Pucci in the same poses as in “The End of the World” With the Visuals out of the way, time to dive into the music. It starts off quiet, and slowly gains energy, like how Jolyne’s story started as her trying to be free, and prove her innocence, and evolves into something much larger, saving the entire universe from being restarted. And just like with Chase, it feels so fluid that I find myself unable to look away from the screen white it plays. One way it differs from chase, is that it is something that is definitely better whistled than hummed. Also, the picture used for the song is just so cool like it is with Chase Then with the atmosphere. The use of the clock at around the 55 second mark is a great way to symbolize not only the power of time Pucci gains, but also how little time the gang has to find and defeat Pucci. And that feeling of hopelessness in the beginning accurately represents how the main characters must feel during their final stand off with Pucci after he gains Made in Heaven, and the use of colors also helps a lot when it comes to portraying a certain emotion like this is doing To end this, the thing that boosts it to first place above Chase is that it belongs to my favorite part, it has my favorite villain who, as I like to say, was one fun fact away from winning, my second favorite JoJo, behind Joseph, my favorite characters, my favorite fights, my favorite stands, my favorite intro, my favorite everything, if you were to ask me to name one thing wrong with stone ocean, I wouldn’t be able to give you a answer because I think it is just that good. In conclusion, all other intro’s are good, but I find that Chase and Heaven’s Falling Down are the best. Everyone has the right to their own opinions, however, that doesn’t mean that these aren’t factual, if you don’t believe that Heaven’s falling down and Chase are the best intros in JoJo’s bizarre adventure, you are wrong. All other intros are fair game though. Works Cited “chase | JoJo's Bizarre Wiki | Fandom.” JoJo's Bizarre Wiki, jojo.fandom.com/wiki/Chase.

This is genuinely a great opening tier list but it feels like you should separate the songs from the opening cause there are good bangers on the bad openings
I wonder how that would work, actually. His Stand is not time based like all the previous villains, and even with Pucci they had *Jotaro* be the one to interupt. It would make more sense if it was Alternate Diego who did it.
My top ten anime openings 1. Sono chi no sadame 2. Sono chi no sadame 3. Sono chi no sadame 4. Sono chi no sadame 5. Traitors requiem 6. Sono chi no sadame 7. Sono chi no sadame 8. Sono chi no sadame 9. Sono chi no sadame 10. Sono chi no sadame
i don't usually do this but i honestly got pissed off watching this video so i wanna see how many people can i piss off with my list 11. chase 10.breakout 9.Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town 8.Fighting Gold 7.Stand Proud 6.Sono Chi No Sadame 5.Great Days 4.Bloody Stream 3.Heaven's Falling Down 2.End Of The World 1.Traitor's Requiem 0.the rumbling this was harder then i expected god damn, the problem with this i love chase but the others just destroy, in fact i love all my JoJo op's this hurt so much to make I'm sorry for my sins father Pucci.
When accounting for animation/visuals: 1) Heaven's Falling Down 2) End of the World 3) Bloody Stream 4) Great Days 5) Sono Chi No Sadame 6) Stand Proud 7) Breakout 8) Fighting Gold 9) Traitor's Requiem 10) Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town 11) Chase I'm sorry but Chase is so obnoxious to hear and to watch. I legitimately can't stand it. At least CNBT has a bunch of nice colors in it. I have no idea why you see the visuals in Chase as vibrant and incredible, yet hate on HFD so much. Also I'm (obviously) very heavily biased towards the 3D animation for the most part. No idea why you hate Great Days so much but love Traitor's Requiem so much. TR is the only mid song in the JoJo OP list--everything else has something going directly for or directly against it. Credit where it's due though, the animation and the villain interruptions are dope as hell.
What made me fall in love with Chase is actually a guitar cover of it that added so much flavor to it imho. It's by the UA-camr ChakiP and he plays all Diamon is Unbreakable openings. It's just so good to listen to his covers
I really liked Fighting Gold. The music just feels really dramatic and I dig it. I find myself singing it to myself every now and then

Ok, Chewie likely just misheard things or doesn't have super bougie headphones like I do, but that "beep" in Great Days he's talking about is a cowbell used by the drummer.

Damn we have wildly different tastes
Theres a fully acoustic version that the artist wrote and it might be my favorite opening, fits the part much better than the heavy guitar
Which song is it?
@@linguinox0_z0nexI think he talks about Stand Proud
@@linguinox0_z0nexI think he is talking about Chase , there is an acoustic version of it
I just got notified of this like 2 months later, for the record it was chase
I know you say you don't like the music or you do like it for some, but you NEVER explain why. This feels more like a visual critique than a musical one; and as an artist and animator, most of those critiques don't make very much sense. But I respect your opinion no matter how much I disagree with you in many aspects. Might make my own version of this video in response to yours.
Fighting gold is underrated. The guitar drop is damn satisfying.
Chewiedog1 never fails to be wrong in everything
We need the full versions of chewiedogs voiceovers.
What makes end of the world even better is that looking at it it hasn't even really changed between v1 and v2, just actually showing dio and the time stopping and I think that is just amazing.
It’s impressive to me that I can still play all these in my head (besides heaven is falling down) despite not having watched the show in a few years
If you asked me to recall an opening from any other show…
I’m gonna be honest I can only remember Dragonballs openings
This guy probably made the most controversial video ever💀
Never let bro cook ever again💀
Ikr
Why thought?
@@mikelquinnr6101 second worst jojo op is fighting gold according to him 💀
@@mountain-yw9jc not bad pick, but I see why y'all think it's good. my list is (from worst to best), Sono Chi No Sadame, STAND PROUD, Heaven's Falling Down, Fighting Gold, Great days, End of THE WORLD, Breakout, Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town, Traitor's Requiem, Bloody Stream, then Chase. Feel free to disagree, then we can talk.
Bloody stream is the best to hear
The EDM version of Crazy Noisy Bizarre town version is unreal it is SO slept on
FR!
Absolutely love this😂. You should make one for all the JoJo main themes
You put some of my favorites at the bottom ;-; (my tops are bloody stream, great days, fighting gold, heaven's falling down, and chase)
Also I despise Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town and Stone ocean OP 1
Bro was tweaking making that first pick 💀
I'm so glad you gave crazy noisy bizarre town some recognition, it's my favourite and i prefer the first one to the edm version
Finally he said something good about part1
He liked my comment my life has been fulfilled
me the whole time: WHERES TRAITORS REQUEM???
me at 14:40: THANK YOU CHEWIEDOG1!!!
👏👏😅😁
GANG STARS!!
(gangsters)
1:17 already controversial
I gotta say i probably have listened to bloody stream atleast 200 + times while reading because of that *ACTION* MAN ITS SO GOOD! BEEN LISTENING FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS NOW
Heavens falling down is such a good song tho😭😭
Yah I damn near Cum everytime I here it 😭🙏
The Code Geass opening slaps. Jibun wo sekai e sae mo kae tenshi maye sora. I wrote that shit from memory.
Thats a different opening
I love how he still respects Great Days after its placement!
The chase suitcases are meant to show Kira acquiring killer queen, you notice each of them from random locations have blood on them until the one that’s from Egypt, where Kira found the arrow and attained a stand ability so he could dispose of the bodies easier
Well, didn't think I'd find an opinion about the Jojo openings that is actually so similar to mine. I agree, A traitors Requiem is the absolute coolest OP non-negotiable
Ima be fr, this channel is actually so funny especially the title on this one
I'm glad else feels the same about Fighting Gold. The opinion on great days was a really hot take for me, cause I really love it. Also called me out on playing it in my car 😭 I'll let it slide, cause you acknowledged Chase and the share the same opinion on Fighting Gold
Anyways here's my ranking:
Great Days
Chase
End Of The World
Crazy Noisy Bizzare Town
Traitor's Requiem
Stand Proud
Bloody Stream
Stone Ocean
Sono Chino Sadame
Heaven's Falling Down
Fighting Gold
Chase is actually one of my favorites. Most people say it doesn't fit the vibe but like its supposed to represent the shift from normal stand fighting formula to the more murder mystery aspect
But I don't think it fits that that in the anime - it starts with the Rohan arc which is hardly a change to the formula, and ends just after Kira assumes his new identity, which is where the "mystery" aspect really takes centerpoint. Really, the only episodes it feels like it fits in is the Sheer Heart Attack arc.
Bro did not cook this time❌❌❌🧑🍳🧑🍳🧑🍳
I got curious about that Traitor's Requiem reddit leak post on 15:45. Did not regret it. Well played, Chewie
When you gonna post you singing the jojo openings on Spotify
just saying, at the 6:00 mark, that beep he's talking about, im pretty sure thats just a hit in the dome of the ride cymbal of the drums set used in the song. if im not mistaken that is. (im a drum nerd lol)
Fighting Gold is a car blaster! Almost always either following or proceeding Chase
God, I both love and hate how opinions are valid on the internet.
My personal list of jojo ops would have to be this:
11. Fighting gold
10. Sono chino sadame
9. Heavens falling down
8. Crazy Noisy Bizzare Town
7. End of the world
6. Stand Proud
5. Great days
4. Stone Ocean
3. Bloody stream
2. Traitors requiem
1. Chase (not a joke I love chase)
Literally all I would do is swap the bottom two and ur ranking is the same as mine lol. Chase enjoyers rise up
Fighting gold at 11 is CRAZY
Bloody stream 1
My list is. Part2, Part6 Op2, part1, part3 op1, part5 op1, part5 op2, part4 op1, part4 3, part6 op1, part3 op2, part4 op2.
Edit:
My favorite alt ops are-
Part3, part6 2, part5 2, part5 1, part 4 (any of em).
Man I can't possibly disagree more on heaven's falling down
Chase, Great Days, Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town, End of the World, then Fighting Gold. Thats my top 5 in order.
Heaven’s Falling Down in the lowest tier is unreal, I really like the opening both songs and animation. I would’ve preferred Fighting Gold as the bottom tier
But fr there are no actual bad JoJo opening, all JoJo opening is fire just like there’s no actual bad parts
10:18 Don't know if you care that much but I'm pretty sure that shot is supposed to be Dio attaching his head to Jonathan's body
Damn fighting gold and great days in the bottom? Those are like my top 3. I think fighting gold’s visuals are some of the best in the series and coda cooked on the song. Great Days has a very catchy and happy tune that brilliantly contrasts with the dark turn that the story takes near the end of Part 4.
I don’t know guys, but I think this is fair use
If Chase is in the lower part of the ranking, I will go insane
Im quite satisfied with this video
fr, underrated op ngl
@@sheenBean_Chase is 6 in my list
Why Heaven’s Falling Down and Chase are the best JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure openings. We all know that JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure has great introductions all around, but there are two openings that stand out among the crowd. Those two being Chase, by Japanese artist Batta, and Heaven’s Falling Down, by Japanese artist Sana. They both excel in similar ways. Such as visuals, audio, atmosphere, and just how much I like the part in general.
Let’s start with Chase. As stated earlier, one of the reasons I like Chase so much is the visuals. If we look at the 7 second mark, we can see soup cans, but instead of soup, we see hands. Abiding by the fact that Yoshikage Kira has a hand fetish, if you will. Then, at the 10 second mark, we can see seemingly innocent suitcases that are leaking what appears to be blood, this may confirm to the watcher that the “peaceful” town of Morioh may actually be much darker than what meets the eye. Next up, around the 19 second mark, we can see a hand touch different photograph, then we see the Killer Queen “symbol” appear on said photographs, causing them to combust into flames, showcasing Kira’s ability to blow things up, then when the flames settle, the title of the part appears, then after Shigechi feeds pigeons, it cuts to Kira cutting his nails, and later on in the part, it is revealed that his nails grow at a accelerated pace when he has the urge to kill. This could allude to the fact that Shigechi is soon killed by Kira. There are also some silhouettes of unknown women that are in the reflection of his nail. Around the 30 second mark, we can see a rat that later proves to be a major opponent, to someone even like Jotaro, then a second one scurrying away a few frames later. We then see a silhouette of ECHOES act 3. Then at the 41 second mark, we can see the stand Cinderella, and Yukako with only one eye visible. Showcasing the test Koichi has to go through to regain Yukako’s original eyes. 5 seconds later, at the 46 second mark, we can see two people holding hands, my best guess is that it is the younger version of Kira, holding Reimi’s hand, in other words, this is a capture of him taking his first victim. Only a few frames later, we see his dad holding the stand arrow. It then transitions into us “flying” through the ghost alley where we see Reimi. And finally, it cuts to Josuke reaching his hand out the silhouette of Kira himself.
My next reason is the audio, it has a catchy toon that you can hum for hours on end. Another reason why I enjoy this song so much is because it fits so well with the visuals. I find myself in a trance everytime I watch this opening because it just feels so fluid. The lyrics also fit so well with what the main cast is trying to do, of which is to chase the Morioh serial killer, which also fit the title so well. Finally, The picture used for this song on spotify just look so cool.
To further expand this argument, the atmosphere of the opening truly affects my personal rating of the intro. The lack of vibrant colors for the majority of the opening up until the very end do a great job of displaying the dread and hopelessness they cast must feel while on the hunt for this elusive serial killer, but when they get so close to finding him once and for all, that hope is reignited, and they have a new found determination to keep looking, that may possible segway well into the final intro, great days.
Finally, to finish off my segment for Chase, I must admit, It is affected by how much I like the part, I would honestly tie this with Heaven’s Falling Down, if it weren’t for the fact that I feel like the part has a horrible way of disposing of villains, overall, Diamond is Unbreakable is my second favorite part, (so far, I’m currently reading Steel Ball Run) but I feel like the whole “I defeated you, so we’re buddies now” trope got old after the 5th time it happened. But overall, it had by second favorite villain, fourth favorite JoJo, and second favorite cast (even if it is quite large)
Essay cont.
Next up on my list, Heaven’s Falling Down. By far my favorite opening. But let’s get started with the visuals. Not only is it the most recent 3D opening, it’s also the Best. It quickly starts with a flashback to the Jotaro versus Dio fight at the end of Stardust Crusaders, which morphs from Dio being defeated to Star Platinum’s Disk getting carried off by the pigeon. The camera then pans downward to display the accident that put Jolyne in prison in the first place. It then cuts to Jolyne in the visitation room right before Pucci attacks, while the Pendant falls slowly into Jolyne's hand while the camera cuts to right when White snake starts attacking. It then cuts to Jolyne holding the pendent close, as she supposedly misses her parents. It then cuts to Jotaro recovering in an undisclosed location. For the next 11 seconds, a montage of the characters' backstories flash in front of their silhouettes. It then shows Pucci and 3 other profiles later revealed to be Dio’s sons (besides Giorno). This is where the biggest change happens. Itn the first version, Jolyne is shown floating through the air only to land seconds later to allow for her and her teammates to land a barrage of attacks. Then at the 1:08 mark, we see F.F. floating through the air, supposedly going to heaven. After that, we see Pucci and Jolyne facing off in the water. We then see flames in her eyes, known as Dark Determination (correct me if I'm wrong), where the camera sinks into the water, then waves move out of the way to reveal the title card. But if we go back to the 0:55 second mark, we can see Jotaro use Star Platinum: The World to stop time, or at least, try to, as it doesn’t fully start, Leaving Jotaro on edge for the approaching attack. Then, as a call-back to the first opening, Manga panels of other parts flash, leaving Jolyne in the Joestar mansion, fighting a greater threat that would ultimately lead to their demise just like her great-great-great about 150 years ago. The camera then pans to the different Joestarrs and the important item during their little quest. We can then see the Joestar mansion breaking apart, possibly symbolizing how the universe is “breaking” only for it to start anew, so like the universe, the entire Joestar lineage is breaking only for it to start anew in the new universe. Finally, it cuts to Jolyne and Pucci in the same poses as in “The End of the World”
With the Visuals out of the way, time to dive into the music. It starts off quiet, and slowly gains energy, like how Jolyne’s story started as her trying to be free, and prove her innocence, and evolves into something much larger, saving the entire universe from being restarted. And just like with Chase, it feels so fluid that I find myself unable to look away from the screen white it plays. One way it differs from chase, is that it is something that is definitely better whistled than hummed. Also, the picture used for the song is just so cool like it is with Chase
Then with the atmosphere. The use of the clock at around the 55 second mark is a great way to symbolize not only the power of time Pucci gains, but also how little time the gang has to find and defeat Pucci. And that feeling of hopelessness in the beginning accurately represents how the main characters must feel during their final stand off with Pucci after he gains Made in Heaven, and the use of colors also helps a lot when it comes to portraying a certain emotion like this is doing
To end this, the thing that boosts it to first place above Chase is that it belongs to my favorite part, it has my favorite villain who, as I like to say, was one fun fact away from winning, my second favorite JoJo, behind Joseph, my favorite characters, my favorite fights, my favorite stands, my favorite intro, my favorite everything, if you were to ask me to name one thing wrong with stone ocean, I wouldn’t be able to give you a answer because I think it is just that good.
In conclusion, all other intro’s are good, but I find that Chase and Heaven’s Falling Down are the best. Everyone has the right to their own opinions, however, that doesn’t mean that these aren’t factual, if you don’t believe that Heaven’s falling down and Chase are the best intros in JoJo’s bizarre adventure, you are wrong. All other intros are fair game though.

This is genuinely a great opening tier list but it feels like you should separate the songs from the opening cause there are good bangers on the bad openings
I put Traders' Requiem in the last. Not because of the fire music. Because of ALL THE FLIPPING SPOILERS.
Don’t worry, it’s okay to be wrong.
bro i was sick today but when i saw that you posted i felt better. keep up the good work chewi
Fighting gold should be SLIGHTLY higher
Fighting gold never fails to give me chills. The visuals, the melody and ESPECIALLY the vocals?? By far my fav opening.
But in the end we all agree that Freek'n You is the best jojo ending
I CANNOT WAIT FOR A FUNNY VALENTINE INTRO INTERUPT
You will be wating
I wonder how that would work, actually. His Stand is not time based like all the previous villains, and even with Pucci they had *Jotaro* be the one to interupt.
It would make more sense if it was Alternate Diego who did it.
@gokunenn4243 funny valentine just cloning the protagonists lol
Bro just slandered borderlands as a whole. You're getting put on a vault symbol crucifix.
Ranking jojo openings with a hollow knight music in the background?!? Never saw more goated video 🔥🔥

0.the rumbling
this was harder then i expected god damn, the problem with this i love chase but the others just destroy, in fact i love all my JoJo op's this hurt so much to make I'm sorry for my sins father Pucci.
Dude, heavens falling down is easily the best
Heaven's Falling Down at last hurts, thats like in my top 5 for Jojo openings, I just think is slaps
Unpopular opinion. Chase is the best opening that song hit and the visuals actually get me hard
When accounting for animation/visuals:
1) Heaven's Falling Down
2) End of the World
3) Bloody Stream
4) Great Days
5) Sono Chi No Sadame
6) Stand Proud
7) Breakout
8) Fighting Gold
9) Traitor's Requiem
10) Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town
11) Chase
I'm sorry but Chase is so obnoxious to hear and to watch. I legitimately can't stand it. At least CNBT has a bunch of nice colors in it. I have no idea why you see the visuals in Chase as vibrant and incredible, yet hate on HFD so much.
Also I'm (obviously) very heavily biased towards the 3D animation for the most part.
No idea why you hate Great Days so much but love Traitor's Requiem so much. TR is the only mid song in the JoJo OP list--everything else has something going directly for or directly against it. Credit where it's due though, the animation and the villain interruptions are dope as hell.
Imma be honest, I play these openings whenever I drive. Great time whenever I listen to them.
Imagine ranking Heaven's Falling Down at the bottom when Chase literally exists
I really like chase idk why its just so good and has fire visuals
10:18 that shot is of DIO attaching his head to Jonathan's body.
i actually like Heavens falling down, It had to be my favorite one
damn actually good takes
Sono Chi no Sadame better be the first
Unsubscribed
Real
No way you called it "T R A D E R S" Requiem 😭😭😭😭
Traders souls gotta repose too 😭
My favourite opening being last place 😭
real
This list was actually pretty good and had good reasoning too. Good job
Heaven’s falling down is an underrated masterpiece
What made me fall in love with Chase is actually a guitar cover of it that added so much flavor to it imho. It's by the UA-camr ChakiP and he plays all Diamon is Unbreakable openings. It's just so good to listen to his covers
