This will work. The franchise may be more an homage to '80s rock than this style, but the song still captures the essence of the series' spirit.

Eagerly looking forward to watching the series tomorrow.

Yes I hope that second pack of episodes will come out soon! Anyway I hope that author will finish the manga already. There are many works which were not finished due to author's death.

After a pretty good Spriggan, I'm hoping for good things from this too.

That opening seems rather quick to establish the tone and content. Netflix’s account flat out had to warn it was NSFW by their standards. That gives me hope the material will be untouched.

I heard the name of this series once or twice before a long time ago. I didn't think much of it until I heard it was getting a revival via Netflix. I still wasn't quite interested until I saw this opening.

I may have to watch this now based on that alone.

Unfortunately the only way to do that these days is either to pirate, scour eBay for old copies, or go Japanese.

I'm having my hopes really up (which I shouldn't because Netflix...) for the next batches of Stone Ocean to have more than 12 episodes, based on the fact that this one of Bastard!! comes with 13.

Back at the topic at hand, I also have a lot of faith for this one despite having been duped into watching Record Of Ragnarok based on the awesome trailer that hid pretty well its shitty slideshow animation.
