I think that was actually one of it's weaknesses. The opening segment is so, so good, so dramatic, that when it segues into Vaan and his little 'adventure' collecting some bloody foodstuffs, it sort of loses some of the grandeur.

However, it picks up quite well later on.

I agree though, overall the opening of XII was just amazing.
