Quote from: Spark Of Spirit on October 02, 2013, 08:01:43 PMI wish anime would stick with their opening themes longer though, for instance the second Kuroko No Basket theme drives me crazy. It's so terrible.

For what it's worth, the 2011 Hunter X Hunter anime is still using "Departure" as its opening theme song, even now that we're nearly 100 episodes into the series. The only thing that ever changes from time to time are the animations that accompany the opening theme. While it's not one of my favorite opening themes, it does sound like one of the better shounen theme songs among the modern shows, and it's refreshing to see it actually treat it like a theme song and keep it running, rather than switching once every few months to some new pop song that doesn't even fit the tone of the series.

 :joy: Great list's guys!  :thumbup:

I'll post my own list as well, although it'll be a top 15 20 25....30  :sweat::

30. Zero - Sands of Destruction: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7c9z3JAdTpQ
    One of the most kickass openings to any video-game inspired anime ever made!  ;D

29. Through the Night - Outlaw Star: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LucBfR1w6Y[
    Everyone knows how good this is, so I see no need for justifications.

28. BIG O! - The Big O: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7_Od9CmTu0
    Same as above.

27. Give a Reason - The Slayers Next: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJAIygMVRuc
    I'm not gonna give a reason. It's just great.

26. Rock the Planet - Urusei Yatsura: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xczg_6v9Yc
    Rocks the planet indeed.  :D

25. Tenchi Muyo! - Tenchi Universe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7lVnz-q7rs
   Can't escape the catchiness of this one. Ain't no use in trying.  ;)

24. Bouken Desho Desho - The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4Bl6BHXqUg
   The series might be a little dull, but this opening is pure awesome!

23. Wild Challenger! - Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVOTZxLirrY
      It fits the show so, so perfectly, and is really nostalgic for me, personally.

22. Aoi Hana - Casshern Sins: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdOubGFnfG8
     Just a beautiful song matched with some great visuals.

21. Inner Universe - Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gN9Z8u_mcc
     Same as above.

20. Connect - Puella Magi Madoka Magica: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOKO6gSVueQ
     Beautifully fits the mood of the series, all the way through.

19. Kimi ga Inai Mirai - InuYasha: The Final Act: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E515S9UskE0
      This opening gets me emotional, since it hints at so much of the end of the series. I don't like the anime adaption of InuYasha much, but this opening really hits me sentimentally.

18. Guns & Roses - Baccano!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Msg8ypnLqaw
      It's Jazz-tastic!

17. Again - Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uq34TeWEdQ
     Gets me pumped up and emotional at the same time, and kicks all sorts of ass.

16. Fight Together - One Piece: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGreqBriJkQ
      Oh god, I get so many feels watching this. That whole sequence that recounts Luffy's first meetings with the rest of the Straw Hats...

15. Cold Finger Girl - Level E: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRPOF2nPsl0
      I like the horror/sci-fi fusion of vibes it gives off. Really fits the show, y'know? Plus, it's just a kick-ass song.

14. Baka Survivor - Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbUAMLLdqrs
    The catchiest and most adrenaline-rushing opening of Bobobo. Once you get it in your head, you'll be singing BAKA SURVIVOR ba~by all day long!  :D

13. Get Along - The Slayers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QdtEXexKns
     A classic anime opening, and among all The Slayers franchise's openings, this one is the most memorable and best fitting to the series.

12. We Are! (both versions) - One Piece: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0ov2ZIgC88 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yv_wXhib8PE
    A modern classic, if you ask me. I love the english version, but it's just as kickass in japanese and it's no wonder why it's the theme song everyone always associates with One Piece.

11. You Get to Burning! - Martian Successor Nadesico: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrtSkcel8RU
    I'll just echo what Spark said about this one.  ;)

10. All of the Maison Ikkoku Openings - Maison Ikkoku: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Beu73-HHxk, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TH_572d1XA4, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmwZsuM8NC8, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1uCHviHxAg, and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YENVaB1niYg
   I couldn't choose a favorite among these. They are all amazing. If you had to check out any of them, check out opening 2 at least. Before Jojo had the balls to use Roundabout as an ending, Maison Ikkoku had the stones to use Alone Again, Naturally as an opening!  :swoon:

9. Scramble! - School Rumble: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0x7vAa9zSfI
   One of the most perfect comedy anime openings in existence.

8. Tank! - Cowboy Bebop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw3fN3OPk3A
    Possibly the greatest anime opening of all time. At the very least, the most memorable. I like 4 others more than it, though...

7. H.T. - Trigun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSX58TglZRs
    Really hypes you up to see ol' Vash the Stampede in action. Epic doesn't even begin to describe it.

6. Bloody Stream - Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_279704&feature=iv&src_vid=TnHyj7G1kjI&v=XFkPqh0z-_Y
   Easily one of the most badass openings ever made. I haven't watched all of the series yet, but damn is this opening awesome!  ;D

5. Lupin the Third theme - Lupin the Third (2nd anime): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm99tmzmXkk
        How did I forget this before? It's easily the most iconic anime opening ever:shakeshakeshake:

4. Love (Loyalty) - Excel Saga: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2yYe-HQElo
   I actually don't like the Excel Saga anime all that much, but this opening perfectly captures the energy and humor in the manga and it's a hoot to watch, and whevenver I started a new volume of the manga I would watch it first to get myself pumped up.   :e_hail:

3. Smile Bomb - Yu Yu Hakusho: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dyb9yrBd68
2. Mystical Adventure - Dragonball: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT1Dp69D7q0
    Both Smile Bomb and Mystical Adventure are catchy, fun, and classics, and I have both of them completely memorized. Nostalgia away!   ;D

1. Duvet - Serial Experiments Lain: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9CXmEUwvgM
    How did I forget this one before!? THIS opening is my favorite. It's beautiful, mesmerizing, epic, and emotional all at the same time; a perfect blend of visuals and music that has not been topped by any other anime opening I have seen. It is easily my favorite anime opening.

I have a shit-ton of other openings I could list as honorable mentions, but considering that I already had to extend the list three times to accommodate awesome openings I absolutely adore and had to share....we'll just leave it at this, for sure this time.  :sweat:

I feel the exact same way. :)

Favorite anime openings that aren't "Tank!" or "Cruel Angel's Thesis"

1."Reckless Fire" - S-CRY-Ed (Catchy song mixed with a constantly changing sequence as the show progressed made this one a winner for me)
2. "Smile Bomb" - Yu Yu Hakusho ('Nuff said)
3. "Through the Night" - Outlaw Star ( Everything about this opening is awesome. The song, the visuals, everything. If those first few notes don't make you want to jam out, then you have no soul)
4. "To the Beginning" - Fate/Zero (sets the mood for the second half perfectly)
5. "Hitomi no Tsubasa" - Code Geass (say what you will about CG itself, but this opening was pretty damn awesome)
6. "Guren no Yamiya" - Attack on Titan (sounds epic, and gets you pumped to watch the show)
7.  "H.T" - Trigun (I'm a sucker for kickass, rocky tunes, and thsi one is as kick-ass as they come)
8. All of the openings to Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood
9.  "Cha La Head Cha La - Dragonball Z (a classic)
10. "Connect" - Puella Magi Madoka Magica (it sounds out of place at first, then you pay attention to the lyrics and hit episode 10, and it suddenly becomes the perfect opening for the series)

Honorable mention goes to both of the Ghost in the Shell openings.

VLordGTZ

Here's my list:
1. "BLOODY STREAM" Jojo's Bizarre Adventure (TV)
2.  "to the beginning" Fate/Zero
3.  "Give a Reason" Slayers NEXT
4.  "One Day" One Piece
5.  "rise" Ghost in the Shell: SAC 2nd GIG
6.  "Aoi Hana" Casshern Sins
7.  "Cold Finger Girl" Level E
8.  "Dragon Soul" DBZ Kai
9.  "Smile Bomb" Yu Yu Hakusho
10. "Tank!" Cowboy Bebop

Here's my list:
1. "BLOODY STREAM" Jojo's Bizarre Adventure (TV)
3.  "Give a Reason" Slayers NEXT

Oh Fuck! I totally forgot about the Jojo and Slayers openings, and Madoka Magica's as well! :gonk: Crap, I might need to edit my list... :sweat:

Spark Of Spirit

As far as Smile Bomb goes, I really prefer the newer opening they did as opposed to the first. The first felt a bit too general and the second related more to the overall story.

Another thing to mention is that while I don't really like Gantz at all, the Super Shooter opening theme is pretty good.

The third version of Smile Bomb is my personal favorite version. I know the second version had Sensui and all, but the third version matched the visuals in the second half of the opening to the song a bit better to me, in all honesty.

Also, I edited my original list to include "Connect," "Get Along," and "BLOODY STREAM." Can't believe I forgot those before.  :sweat:


...except now I realize I forgot a buncha openings from Urusei Yatsura and Maison Ikkoku, among others... :srs:

Screw it, I'll just remember to put them in next time. Seriously though, the first openings of Maison Ikkoku and Urusei Yatsura? Classics, without a doubt.  ;)

Quote from: Ensatsu-ken on October 02, 2013, 07:43:50 PM
Great list! Most of those themes are stuff that I never skip, either.

Anyways, here's my stab at a list:

1. "Smile Bomb" Yu Yu Hakusho (It's kind of cheesy, but it's a classic to me)
2. "Driver's High" Great Teacher Onizuka (I just love how unique this one sounds)
3. "Mystical Adventure" Dragon Ball (Just plain fun)
4. "Tank!" Cowboy Bebop (Really entertaining)
5. "Under Star" Hajime no Ippo (No other opening song can "pump you up" more than this one)
6. "Taiyou Wa Yoru Mo Kagayaku" Hunter X Hunter (The 1999 series)
7. "You Wa Shock!" Fist of the North Star (Granted that I didn't watch much of this series, but I just had to list this opening)
8. "Kimi ga Suki da to Sakebitai" Slam Dunk (A very inspirational sounding theme to fit a series of the same nature)
9. "Falling Down" Eden of the East (I don't normally care for anime licensing English songs, but this one just fit, IMO)
10. "A Cruel Angel's Thesis" (I enjoy the series well enough, but this opening was honestly my favorite thing about it)

Honorable Mentions:

"Cha La Head Cha La" Dragon Ball Z
"We Are!" One Piece
"Freckles" Rurouni Kenshin
"Through the Night" Outlaw Star
"Butterfly" Digimon Adventure
"Big-O!" The Big O
"Hekireki" Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger
You Wa Shock is probably my favorite. I also love Smile Bomb, Tank and Big O. Others:

Baki The Grappler "Dir en Grey - Child Prey"
Samurai Champloo
Guyver
"Ryu is like the Hank Hill of Street Fighter." -BB_Hoody


gunswordfist

Heh I thought about listing "Reckless Fire"

The first Smile Bomb animation will always be my favorite. Kurama powering up is the coolest. The original ending theme blows all of that out of the water though. Tick tock tick....man,  I am getting a MASSIVE overflow of nostalgia. I was last on the middle of Chapter Black but this makes me want to start it all over again.

I prefer the 3rd and 4th endings to YYH.

I prefer the 3rd and 4th endings to YYH.

Speaking of anime endings....

Top 20 Ending Themes I never skip:

20. (Yume) ~Mugennokanata~ - Level E: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjkY2pS-R_M
     Much like the opening, it gives off a pretty good vibe fitting the show, albeit less so. Still, great song + visuals = winner in my book.

19. Something Like an Afterword - The Melancholy of Haruhi-Chan Suzumiya: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cX7WhhXCHCs
    I really like the visual theme, Kyon's reactions to the song in progress, and just the overall vibe of it all.

18. Hare Hare Yukai - The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCbUUgpKn00
    This is probably the most iconic anime ending in the world, and for good reason. I'll admit, I've tried to copy the dance moves myself (although I sucked at it).  :sweat:

17. Boku-Tachi wa Tenshi Datta - Dragonball Z: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zxdNgXEp2I
     Just a classic in my opinion.

16. Lambada Ranma - Ranma 1/2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2U43jacmsRQ
    Who doesn't love a song that all the main characters sing in together?  :D

15. I will - Fullmetal Alchemist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkYkVlg5lEU
    Such a fitting song for the end of the first series. That entire "stage" sequence and the scene featuring every "good" character associated with the military....

14. Wind blows to the Future - Trigun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BuhVCjt9j0
    Just as memorable as the opening, to me, even if it isn't as celebrated. I looked forward to listening to it after every episode, and I think it really hits a lot of emotional notes no matter which episode you watch before it.

13. Miracle Zenkai Power - Dragonball Z: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVi9U0lgurU
    Who can resist the charm of this one? I don't care if it doesn't fit DBZ, it's a classic dammit!

12. With You - InuYasha: The Final Act: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUtedlaISq8
    They should have just kept this ending all the way through Final Act. It perfectly encompasses the mood of the last portions of the story in terms of both visuals and mood.

11. Romantic Ageru Yo - Dragonball: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtLQgT1_azs
    Easily my favorite ending theme in the Dragonball franchise. A nice, soothing song about magic and adventure...and really, isn't that what Dragonball is all about?

10. Red Shoe Sunday - Ranma 1/2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWdQwcXOo5s
    I'm a sucker for songs sung by main characters, as established before, and it also evokes the same kind of strange, nostalgic feelings that "Positive" does for me. The fact that Viz dubbed it in english helps too.  :)

9. Roundabout - Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPB6MHlyBa4
    YES!!!!  :shakeshakeshake:

8. Homework Never Ends - Yu Yu Hakusho: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98rwIFDT8Uc
    Probably the first ending song I ever considered a "favorite" of mine. Classic stuff all around, here. The rest of the series' opening are pretty fantastic too, but this one will always be my favorite, and is quite nostalgic to me, really.

7. Come My Way - InuYasha: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlnAkrUWhF4
    Just...just listen to the english version of this song. It's amazing.

6. POSITIVE - Ranma 1/2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lk8Ee_xmRCc
   I love the pencil on paper animation motif, and the song is just...so strangely nostalgic. I can't help but get feels for the series while watching it.

5. Afro Gunso - Sgt. Frog: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Xpc1TBCdPo
    Easily the most funk-tastic ending ever. If you don't love this ending, you've got no soul.   O0

4. Ride on Shooting Star - FLCL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdgqDL2l0hQ
    There's a reason [adult swim] doesn't cut down this ending.  :humhumhum:

3. Onnanoko Otokonoko (any version) - School Rumble: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XL2ckrhiU7k, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G3-aVw052E, or even http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYkYTTyGt7k
   It's a funny, cute song that perfectly matches the mood of the series and is always a real pleasure to watch. Onnanoko + Scramble = Winning Combination.  ;D

2. Real Folk Blues - Cowboy Bebop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQxaElCYv7E
   This is probably the most perfect ending ever, in the way it presents elements of Spike's past life, with grayscale visuals, and a sad yet still funky song to go with it. Real Folk Blues indeed.

1. Shiki no Uta - Samurai Champloo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8U3sThzr-CY
    Everything about this ending is beautiful, from the brilliantly colored visuals recounting parts of Fu's past to the addictive song filled with so many emotions. I can never, ever get enough of this ending, and it most certainly is my most favorite out of any anime ending themes I've ever seen.

Like with my opening's list, there's probably a heck ton I could still mention, but I'll leave it at this.  :)

VLordGTZ

Great list CX!!! :thumbup:
Here's my list:
10. "Ashita Hareru ka" Maison Ikkoku
9. "Fukai Mori" InuYasha
8. "Boku-Tachi wa Tenshi Datta" DBZ

I'm not going to make an entire list for it, but I really like the 1st and 3rd YYH endings, as well as "The Real Folk Blues" from Cowboy Bebop. Other than that, I know for certain that my favorite ED theme would be "Heart of Sword" from Rurouni Kenshin, but I couldn't make much of a list beyond that.
