Another anon meme!
Because two in a row is good luck! Or something.
anon meme.
And just so this post doesn't seem so empty, I'll fill it with a meme dtn posted a little while back:
What are you favorite anime OP and EDs? and why?
Don't go past top 5*, and say a few words why? :3
*Hahahahaha.
This is in no particular order; I'm just going to link them as I think of them.
1. Samurai Champloo OP - Battlecry (Nujabes)
Okay, I said I wasn't going in order, but this is probably my favorite OP of all time. It's a perfect mix of music and video; the videos are great and sync up perfectly with the song to sum up the general badassness of the series perfectly.
2. Cowboy Bebop ED - The Real Folk Blues (Mai Yamane and The Seatbelts)
And this is without a doubt my favorite ending. It's pretty much perfect. And I love how the story behind the images is revealed over the course of the series. So much love for Bebop. ♥
3. Bleach 5th OP - Rolling Star (Yui)
Bleach has had a few really good OPs, but this is probably my favorite. I love the song, and aside from a few completely random images that have no business being there (like Hitsugaya sitting in front of that cafe or whatever--JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE A POPULAR CHARACTER DOESN'T MEAN YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO BE SQUEEZED INTO THE OPS, SON), it looks pretty shiny too.
4. Reborn! 2nd OP - Boys & Girls (LM.C)
I think there have been better OPs both in terms of visuals (I especially like the latest one) and catchy songs (...again, the latest one is excellent), but I still like this the best. When I think of the KHR anime, I think of this song. And it features the Varia arc, of course, which is KHR at its best. \o/
5. Naruto Shippuuden 1st OP - Hero's Come Back (Nobodyknows+)
This is my favorite of all the Naruto OPs not only because it's catchy and awesome, but because I will forever associate it with the amazing triumphant feeling of TIMESKIP AT LAST! For years (that's years, plural) prior to this, the Naruto anime had been trapped in a neverending cycle of crappy filler after crappy filler; I'll never forget how excited the entire fandom was when Shippuuden finally premiered. So for me, this OP is pretty much one big, "Hell yeah!"
6. Chrno Crusade OP - Tsubasa wa Pleasure Line (Kuribayashi Minami)
Easily one of the most beautiful opening songs I've ever heard. This is the first version of the OP, which was more low-budget; after the first few episodes, they replaced it with a fancier version. But I'm kinda partial to this one, because I think the timing is better and I like the artsy-fartsiness of it. XD
7. Fullmetal Alchemist 4th OP - Rewrite (Asian Kung-Fu Generation)
I love Asian Kung-Fu Generation. One of the catchiest OPs ever, and the part where Ed jumps off a rainbow waterfall for absolutely no reason? THAT IS THE STUFF OPS ARE MADE OF. It doesn't have to make sense, so long as it looks cool, and it so, so does. ♥
8. Ergo Proxy OP - Kiri (Monoral)
Full disclosure: I have never actually seen Ergo Proxy; I tried a couple times and I just couldn't sit through an episode. XD But the OP was recced to me by a friend, and it is absolutely gorgeous. This is like the standard for what all OPs should aspire to. When the chorus kicks in, it just kind of sweeps you up; it's amazing.
9. Death Note 1st ED - Aluminia (Nightmare)
This is just here because that one shot of Light tossing the apple behind him and then the camera whipping around to show Ryuk catching and eating it? MY FAVORITE.
10. Last Exile OP - Cloud Age Symphony (Shuntaro Okino)
Pretty pretty pretty. *_* Like nonstop pretty from start to finish. If you watch one OP on this list... watch Kiri. XD But if you watch two, watch this one. It's incredible, seriously.
And I think ten is a respectable number of list items, so there you go.
