To compliment the anime openings list, here are some of my favorite anime endings, also per the 20+ club. I'm a simple guy and this is a simple list. Again, except for the first, they are in no particular order:


1: Beck



Song- My World Down Artist- Meister

This is definetely my favorite. The song fucking rocks like crazy. I must have listened to it 4 or 5 times just now before i started this because i dig it so much. If i had to go one anime soundtrack, it would be Beck. Plus the pictures of so many artists I love just makes it take the cake...mmm cake.

2: Ergo Proxy



Song- Paranoid Android Artist- Radiohead

Two fucking words. Radio. Head. I'm not sure I really need to say anything else. Actually I won't, that is all.

3: Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood ending 1



Song- USO Artist- Sid

It's hard to go wrong with anything that goes along with FMAB, but this ending is just so fun. The song isn't my favorite part. I think it's really the animation that draws me in and the music just kinda adds to it.

4: FLCL



Song- Ride on Shooting Star Artist- The Pillows

It's a funky, rocking song, and fits the disjointedness of FLCL pretty well i think. I wasn't as huge fan of the anime as some other people, I did like it though, but i always stuck around for the whole song when each episode ended. That says a lot because usually I'm onto the next whatever i'm gonna watch or do.

5: Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann ending 1



Song- Underground Artist- High Voltage

I've just started this anime (I know, late to the party, as usual) but after scratching my head after watching the first episode, I heard this, and it grabbed me enough to stick it out. Now I enjoy the series, but I always look forward to finishing an episode for this song. It rocks, I love the riff, the dude singing is awesome...the whole fucking thing is awesome.

6: Yami no Matsuei



Song- Love Me Artist- The Honk Kong Knife

Enjoyed this anime despite the shonen-ai aspects of it =P. I really liked this song though. The opening of this song is just killer, it just jumps right into it and grabs. The vocals are so spastic and fun, it's fast, it makes me wanna just jump on a stage and go crazy again.

7: Eve no Jikan



Song- Time of Tenderness Artist- Rie Tanaka

Just recently watched this, and this is usually out of my comfort zone, but her voice is killer and inviting. I could totally light some candles, open a book, and put this on a loop and be content in the world.

8: Ghost in the Shell 2nd Gig



Song- Living Inside the Shell Artist- Steve Conte

Again, not something like I'd usually listen to, but it's so soothing and kinda...heartbreaking in a way. I wouldn't say it's a guilty pleaure, by no means, but just unusual for me. Composed by Yoko Kanno, as are many great songs btw, it along with the opening are great bookends for each episode of this series.

9: Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch ending 2



Song- Mosaic Pieces Artist- Mozaiku Kakera

I actually don't love this song, i love the riff, though light, in the background. It's a good song don't get me wrong, but I'm a sucker for that style of playing. Fuck I wish I could play. URG

10: Gungrave



Song- When the Sky Burns Red Artist- Scoobie Do

It's hard to describe how this song makes me feel. Again I love that guitar sound, but that fiddle is killer too. There's something, too, about the delivery of the vocals, very appealing. Though I'm a metal and rock guy at heart, this is a band I'd want to be in.

11: Canaan



Song- My Heaven Artist- Annabel

Forgive the terrible video with spanish subtitles and text all over the fucking screen and the last minute or two being silent. It was the best version I could find that was audible at all. Anyways, there's something haunting about this song, and that girl can sing her ass off. What a gift. Why can't I sing?

12: Samurai Champloo ending 1



Song- Shiki no Uta Artist- Minmi

I love the overdubbing vocals in this song. It makes it sound ethereal. I also love how spartan it is, that is to say, nothing is added that isn't needed. It's very simple, has a great groove, and the singing is great.

That's it for now, I will add later as i will to the OP list. I was gonna put Escaflowne on here too, but they keep fucking deleting the video on my OP list, so...yeah it's annoying. Unofficially it's there though. Check it out =D. See ya.

Nice work! I'm a rock fan, too, that's why I prefer the rocksongs from your list. Radiohead rulez, it's one of my favourite bands, and OK Computer is one of the most influential rock discs of the nineties. I haven't seen Ergo Proxy yet, but the anime is on my list to watch.
Another songs I liked are the Beck, FLCL and Yami no Matsuei EDs, and the Eve no Jikan ending (it's so smooth and beautiful). I haven't seen your OP list yet, but I will check it if I will have some time.

Looove your choices!!! OMG Ghost in the Shell's song is amazing!!
I also loved Yami no Matsuei's song, it was crazily cool! xD

OMG *hits head* How could I forget TTGL's EPIC ED song?!?! HOW?? I'll go put it in my list like.. right NOW!! I adore that song sooo much!!!

I dunno where to start with your choices.. Radiohead...SID (my fav j-boy band), well pretty much all your list is awesome! I can't view Canaan's vid though, seems there's an error there..
But overall..
GREAT WORK!!!!
