At the beginning of the opening day, aki's "Sakura-iro Cliche" (Kaede Akao, Saori Onishi, Riyo Takahashi) was in sole possession of first place, but at this midpoint of the day, it has moved to third place. As of May 21, just three days ago, Kiyoshi Hikawa's "Gegege no Kitaro" was the clear leader, fully emphasizing the strength of its songs that remain in the ears of all generations, but since the weekend, Rin Akatsuki's "Early Days" (Experimental Family - Creature's Family Days) has slowly increased in votes and has jumped to No. 1. ), which had been slowly gaining votes since the weekend, leaped to first place!　It's exactly like "GeGeGeGe! The future development of the competition is highly anticipated to see if Rin Akezuki's "Early Days" will be able to keep its lead over "Gegege no Kitaro," which had shown such an extraordinary strength that it made one want to shout, "Gegege!

In fourth place was Eir Aoi's "Ryusei," which boasts stable popularity. This is about 1,000 votes ahead of Aki's "Sakura-iro Cliche" in third place. Will she be able to make up the difference, or will we get a glimpse of the power of Eir Aoi's fans and SAO fans?

The other entry that slowly climbed from outside the top 10 was Riko Fukumoto's "Shojo wa ano sora wo wataru" (A girl crosses the sky), which was selected by Hizune and Masotan. Perhaps in line with the rising popularity of the work, it has surged to No. 7 here.

It will be interesting to see how far voice actors such as Nao Higashiyama, Rie Murakawa, and Ayaka Ohashi, who write songs under their own names, will fare against the voice actor units such as "Uma Musume Pretty Derby" and "Komikku Garu-zu.

In the "DJ Hiroyuki Deguchi's 'Just Shut Up and Listen to Anime Songs! in Spring 2018" ), it will be interesting to see how well the "Megalobox" songs that Mr. Deguchi has been promoting will do.

Considering that the " 2018Winter Anime OP Popularity Poll " of the previous year had a total of 7029 votes, the " 2018 Spring Anime OP Theme Popularity Poll " has already received over 22245 votes at this point, and depending on the future trends, it seems that another great turnout may not be a pipe dream.
