someone smarter than me can write abt this but i find it really interesting how in dungeon meshi season 2 the level of seriousness between the opening and closing themes has effectively swapped. Kirakira no Hai compared to Party is way more somber and you can feel how much closer it is to the tone of the story at this rate. when you heard Party at the end of episode 11 it felt almost insulting to see how different it was tonally from the shot of Falin's skull. this is not our world. that is not the party we are having. and yet here in season 2 our opening theme has become way more cheerful and lighthearted and it reflects the 'fun dungeon food adventure' vibes in the first season way more than sleepwalking orchestra's grandness did. idk. i think there might be something here to this decision but you can definitely hear it
