Astra - Opening Song: English or Japanese? (Vote Inside!)
Added 2022-10-27 23:45:34 +0000 UTCHello Patrons,
Happy Thursday! Hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend.
Just had a question regarding the vocals for the Astra Opening song. We have a couple options we can go with so I'm interested to see which one you guys want!
Option 1: Stay with English
Vocals and lyrics will be in English, this is pretty much what we've had for most projects so far!

Option 2: Hybrid of English and Japanese
Vocals and lyrics have a mix of English and Japanese. This is what we did with our first project!

Option 3: Go full Weeb (Japanese)
Vocals and lyrics would be Japanese. We haven't done this before so it might be a fun experiment.

Please feel free to vote for your favourite option below! As always, thoughts and feedback are helpful in the comments section.
Thank you for your continued support!

I say... whatever the singers are most comfortable with. Keep it real.

2022-10-28 00:48:48 +0000 UTCIdk I like when animes have some eps with English opening then others are the Japan opening

2022-10-28 00:47:45 +0000 UTCI don't speak/read/understand Japanese, so while I understand the Japanese crowd (as well as the 'Both' option), I gotta vote with English. (Is sad in not true weeb)
