So I think we can all safely agree that the new opening theme is fantastic and exactly the kick the anime needs after this year of awkward war nothingness and bad animation- some reminder as to why we love Naruto so much. I mean, it is by far my favourite opening theme ever.

But one question that's just going to bug me. I get the Madara/turret imagery but
What are the animals and what are their relation to the Kage?

I mean- Raikage is a bear and Mei is a whale- I get that imagery but what are Gaara and Sasuke's animals? And also did Tsuchikage even have an animal? Is this the whole spirit animal vibe they were going for or is it some Japanese folklore theme that I don't get. I'd REALLY like to know.

Something to do with the villages.

you know land of fire and all that stuff.Sasuke is obviously a hawk, i need to re watch it since Onoki's is so hard to see.

I took that for granted but I feel there's something more to it. Gaara's animal?

the kyuubi cried... lol! there was a tear drop

The animal represents the kage.

Gaara is the young buffalo with keen instincts and promise.

Tsunade is the rampant moose that charges without hesitation.

Raikage is the bear that holds dominance and power on top of everyone.

Mei is the whale that protects the sea (her village)

Tsuchikage is the ancient scripture, the scripture that possesses much knowledge and experience.

It really is one of the best openings I've seen

Thank you, this was basically exactly what I was looking for.

To be honest I don't know what the hell that was.
Garra seems to be boar or something.
And to me Sasuke seems to be a bird of some sort.

Thats all I think there is for animals because for Obito its some random red neon light.

This new opening was really bad... not bad but the rock is very bad... The music is VERY low. It could be a much higher if u understand what i mean...

Not really. Nico touches the walls is a fantastic band and this is their best song/best Naruto opening ever IMO. You want another OP10? Feel free :')
