    I love EDs that tell a story!

    My favorite one of those is the original Babel II ED from 1973

    Along with a classic song by the late great Ichiro Mizuki, it also portrays the henchmen as dangerous, even though our hero manages to defeat them anyway.

    A more recent one is Paripi Koumei/Ya Boy Kongming’s ED

    Another fantastic song from this series by 96NEKO. The story in the ED is an idealized version of the story with SD versions of the characters

    Again, going back to the 70s, 1974’s Majokko Megu-chan ED

    The song by the great Yoko Maekawa isn’t the greatest, but the care in the animation and background art is far greater than typical TV anime art for that era. The little dog is very cute, but I don’t think it appears in the actual story in the show.
