What are some of your favourite anime openings?

[GoronGainz]

A good opening can set the mood for the episode/arc your about to watch.

Musically, visually or both. What are some anime openings you just can't skip?

 

[Spirit]

I can't bring myself to skip the openings of most Tales games (Tales has a rep of being the 'anime RPG') but if we're talking about actual anime...

Spoiler: Neon Genesis Evangelion

Spoiler: Gatchaman Crowds

Spoiler: Ergo Proxy

Spoiler: Steins;Gate

Spoiler: Wolf's Rain

Spoiler: Highschool of the Dead

 

[twilitfalchion]

I haven't watched a whole lot of anime, but each one I've watched has had a really good opening to it, especially the music. Some are really catchy, even if I have no idea what's being sung in the JPN language openings.

UBW honestly has some of the best animation I've seen. So good.

Spoiler: Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works

Spoiler: Fruits Basket Season 2 opening

Spoiler: Toradora Opening 2

watched this as a kid but it's still really memorable for me

Spoiler: Sonic X

And Spirit mentioned it, but Steins;Gate's opening is really good as well.

 

[VikzeLink]

I'm not really that big on the openings, and also i don't watch super-much anime. However, the original opening for Pokémon is iconic to me and I can't not love it. Also original Yu Gi Oh series is pretty nice! IT'S TIME TO D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-DUEL!

 

[GrooseIsLoose]

I never skip unravel from Tokyo Ghoul. My most favorite op. I can sing this!

Seven Deadly Sins op

I also agree with others who said Steins;Gate and Sailor Moon.

Is This a Zombie? is pretty great as well.

(1) (Concerning Digimon: Season 3 is my #1 top favorite season, it had the best plot and story arc and character arc and I love the Beelzemon's redemption arc (a fallen angel who atoned for his past wrongs and helped save the world). Season 5 is my second favorite season, season 5 had much older protags, the protags are in their late teens instead of being children and they're like 15-16 years old instead of 9-10 years old, which is refreshing, it also has darker and more mature themes especially towards the end of the season. Season 5 too had a great plot, story arc arc character arc. My third favorite season is season 4 which I think also had a good plot and story arc and it was a new and interesting concept to see them become part Digimon themselves through fusion instead of having Digimon partners. My fourth favorite season is season 2 which had a good plot, story arc and character arc and I love the Ken redemption arc. My fifth favorite season is season 1, and while season 1 had a good plot, story arc, and character arc, the subsequent seasons were better. So this is my top 5, in this order; 3, 5, 4, 2, 1. My favorite Digimon are Renamon, Gaomon, and Gatomon.)

 

[Ericbarker306]

My favorites tend to change quite a lot. Currently my favorites are The Rumbling (AOT Season 4 part 2) and Kick Back (Chainsaw Man)

 

[Jalouis]

Boogiepop Phantom has got to be the best one. The song is a certified BOP

 

[Jalouis]

Realize and Long Shot from Re:Zero for me. And some of the MHA openings. And the Haikyuu ones, all of them.
