NGE's Fly Me To The Moon is performed by Claire, which imho is so much better than Frank Sinatra's. I'm not a big fan of Frank Sinatra actually.

How come they never use non-Japanese music in anime? There's lots of good tunes out there..

Good tunes outside of Japan, but who's to say them Japanese folks will dig it?

As mentioned, Ergo Proxy uses both western songs for the OP and ED, NGE uses Fly Me To The Moon, Jojo uses Walk like an Egyptian and Roundabout, and then there's Afro Samurai's stuff.

Also, you don't need to watch Inou Battle to see the following. It's a snippet of episode 7. Amazing performance by whoever did the voice acting. Please check out this 2:42 long video: http://a.pomf.se/ieeciu.webm

My initial impression is that it outdoes Kana Hanazawa's performance on Sengoku Nadeko's rant in Monogatari Second Season.





But yeah, let that soak in. If you're ready for a trollsub satire on western otakus, you can watch it here (language warning): http://a.pomf.se/qyxrtf.webm

Watching this show I really didn't expect to see something like this. Truly amazing. Hats off to them.

I still need to watch the OVA...and more of JoJo.
 
Does the M stand for Metroid, and imply Zero Suits? :drool:
