Line 36:
** And the fourth season has an additional spoiler ''ending'', since it clearly showcases who Yumi will choose as her ''soeur''.
* The major plot arc of the first eight episodes of ''[[Simoun]]'' is Aaeru's attempt to get Neviril to pair with her, and Neviril's refusal to fly with ''anyone'' during that time. However, the opening credits prominently feature the two flying together, promptly removing any and all suspense that they might not become a pair, and show a number of other characters who have not been introduced yet.
** On the other hand, the opening credits also subvert this this one, too. Amuria, [[First Episode Spoiler|who dies in the first episode]], is never removed from the credits. Between this, the frequent mentions of her, and the fact that [[Never Found the Body|her body was not found]], it seems obvious that she will eventually come back. She does not.
* Although ''[[Gun X Sword]]'' makes use of [[Sinister Silhouettes|silhouettes]], it still tips its hand at two points. For the first, the true appearance of the moon is visible (and unsilhouetted) behind the Claw long before it comes into play. The [[Evolving Credits]] actually ''cause'' the second, with three characters who presumably died in one episode ''not'' having their outlines shadowed before the next, indicating they lived.
* The ''[[One Piece]]'' anime's first opening spoiled Zoro, Nami, Usopp and Sanji as well as their [[Cutlass Between the Teeth|abili]][[Brats with Slingshots|ti]][[Extremity Extremist|es
** The ninth opening spoiled Brook and Thriller Bark.
** The eleventh opening is especially horrible about this. In the two and a half minutes it plays, it shows spoilerific clips from where the anime currently is, trying to rescue Camie from the auction house, all the way to Luffy invading Impel Down to rescue Ace. Along the way they show Kuma attacking, Kizaru and Sentomaru, the women of Amazon Lily, Boa Hancock, Jinbei, and Luffy fighting a bunch of Blugori
Line 56:
*** The first season openings concealed some of the Senshi's identities, but even the very first opening showed Sailor Mercury and Sailor Mars along with Sailor Moon.
*** ''Sailor Moon'' does spoil the true identities of Tuxedo Mask and the Moonlight Knight in the credits.
** About Italian dubs again. Italian opening of ''[[Dragonball Z]]'' clearly states that 1) the hero will discover his [[Mysterious Past]] ("who are you? Goku, you don't know, but you'll soon find out"); 2) [[The Hero Dies]] ("and then you'll disappear")
** The opening of the third season, Sailor Moon S, quite blatantly shows Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus as a part of the team, which was slightly jarring, given that Neptune and Uranus had a rather antagonistic relationship with the inner senshi. Only by the end of the season they truly acknowledged Sailor Moon as their friend and leader.
* The opening of ''[[Kannazuki no Miko]]'' is effectively a 90 second summary of the entire plot of the series.
* The chronological first three episodes of ''[[Suzumiya Haruhi|The Melancholy Of Haruhi Suzumiya]]'' (broadcast second, third, and fifth) feature a classmate who seems at least as important as [[Those Two Guys]]. So why are they all in the closing credits when she isn't? It might have something to do with the fact that she tries to kill Kyon in the tenth (chronologically fourth) episode, getting her either banished or killed by Yuki, it's not clear which.
** In addition, the opening credits show various spoilers about certain characters such as adult Mikuru, albeit without much context, considering the somewhat surreal backdrop. It even spoils the whole Ryoko trying to kill Kyon
** Also in the OP: Kimidori Emiri, who doesn't even ''have'' significance in the anime yet. People paying attention (who haven't followed the [[Light Novels]], anyway) will probably be suspicious of her come season 2 whenever.
** The clock and computer motifs surrounding Mikuru and Yuki also cue you in to their [[Time Travel|respective]] [[Artificial Human|natures]].
