His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
an annoying voice can't make a show worse, but a better voice (or an artistic lacking of voice) can make a show better
but in that post, you described their voices as "distracting"; which, outside of the single most unconventional use of the word, would indicate that it detracted from the overall experience

pick your poison, bucko. were you wrong now or wrong every other time

At the very least, if it didn't outright detract, "distracting" would mean that it pulled your attention away from other aspects of the film to the point that it was a memorable and very noticeable aspect in ways that it shouldn't be.

there's annoying voices, and there's (what i presume to be) the artistic choice to have an annoying voice

the way a character speaks is carefully decided by the acting coach or director; this is part of why i don't like to blame the actor herself, and i tend to avoid using terms like "bad acting," because (on top of my suspension of disbelief being very high) it's very often not the actor's fault at all—that's just how they were directed

so when i said "distracted by a terrible voice actress," what i really meant was, "the decision to make this character's voice sound annoying as fuck did not go over well with me"

it's not that the acting is "bad"—it's just unappealing, and that's where the detraction comes from

to put it another way, it's possible to have an annoying voice in your show that DOESN'T detract from its appeal; take spongebob, for example

"annoying voices" are just another tool in the box, it's neither intrinsically good nor bad; but just like you wouldn't hammer a nail with a wrench, you wouldn't give a character an annoying voice if you wanted to make them likable

short way of writing Opening and Ending.
Call it whatever you want. Nobody really cares either way.

OP is the first two letters of opening, okay fine

so why aren't EDs referred to as ENs

Jacob Potila was actually a Jacob Flotilla of lies.- WarTurkey
I just watched Grave of the Fireflies.

And just before that, I watched The Road.

Cromartie High School is funny. Low budget in the best way, 26eps running 12 minutes each. Also had a dub that aired on G4.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.

I personally associate OP and ED with musical pieces that you can separate from the series and not miss anything whereas intro and outro are the start and close up.

Excuse me, I'm full of dog poison
I just watched Grave of the Fireflies.

And just before that, I watched The Road.

I need a hug.

Why would you do that to yourself? The Road alone is tough to watch.

Verb, what's your opinion on that one anime where the young man living in the idyllic fishing village discovers he has mystical powers right before a demon/warlord attacks and kills everyone in his village forcing him to go on a quest to fight said demon/warlord while meeting friends who have similar, but weaker powers than him. Then said friends sacrafice themselves forcing him to realize he's the most powerful before vanquishing the demon/warlord.

Pro Tip: Watch SAO multiple times, it really boosts those suicidal thoughts.
