I'm glad I watched it before this rubbish opening, because I would've turned the show off the moment I saw this. 50 Shades of Amazon? I'll pass.
The opening had zero substance, zero description of the show, zero representation of the characters, and was pretty much a disaster of epic proportions. Using a poor copy of the end theme just made it that much more insulting. I don't really consider it violent towards women so much as "Oh look, dead people. Let's go Brahm Stoker on them." Sorry, Toei, but the neck stopped being a scandalous erogenous zone well over 100 years ago, so your sad attempt at sex appeal fails.
For the second time ever, I wish polls had lower ratings, because 1 was just too good for this crap.

Re: Amazons TV Opening sequence
I agree with takenoko that this opening is pretty tasteless. I'd also say it is violence against women or at least falls into the stereotypical women are passive tropes because the ladies are shown on the floor and later manipulated/moved by the men. It just looked like the opening didn't know what it wanted with all the effects.

Re: Amazons TV Opening sequence
There's a major disconnect between the footage that they shot for this sequence and the plot of the series. Maybe...maybe...an argument can be made that the biting thing was supposed to be symbolic of the Amzaons instinct to eat human meat. But with such a strong story, I'm shocked they went for such generic staging that implies a romantic conflict that really doesn't exist.
The song is still awesome, but it has nothing to do with the the sequence. Maybe they realized it didn't work well and that's why they left it out for the streaming and used the song strictly for the end credits.
