A screenshot doesn't do it justice. That's because this OP sequence really dove into the true potential of the animated medium. I mean, watching this really drives home the point of why they animate and don't just show a slideshow of images. Crazy graphic design elements, kinetic typography, lots of brilliant movement and colors... you simply have to see this sequence in action.

This may very well be my favorite OP sequence of all time.

The ED is amazing, too, for that matter.

As for the episode itself... argh, I really need subs. Way above my current comprehension level. But it looked quite interesting! Some good laughs, and a bunch of intrigue.
