Get In The Mecha is back and so is our annual edition of Unskippable Openings, where I talk about some of my favourite openings from the past year! An important thing I want to cover in this year's edition is the question, 'what is the relationship between the opening and the show itself?'. In this episode, I try to not only talk about the openings I really liked but the people who worked on them and what they do to deepen our understanding of the anime.
