Looking in an objective sense (As in by MAL popularity scoring, while also being something I've watched), Yakyuukyou no Uta has a catchy as hell OP.



I don't really like the anime much, but this OP is a god damn earworm.

Not OP, but ED, it's underrated because nobody watches the show. The show doesn't have OP.



I don't know if this is underrated, I am pretty sure it's not back in the days, 2.3m views on the video, but these days nobody watches older anime anymore, so this one gets forgotten.

"Underrated" in massive quotations considering the popularity of the series, but I feel people might have skipped this one, considering it's from a filler arc that sucked ass. Don't sleep on the OP though.

The original Dirty Pair (TV) OP (Russian Roulette) is the most complex one and a half minutes of video I know of at that point in history. Anime fans should talk about it occasionally.

@ToG25thBaam I'm glad you liked it and I hope that if you do check out the show, you'll like it! It's a very interesting, oft-overlooked piece of anime history. it isn't perfect, but it was so ambitious for its time that I can't help but love it

The first two Kinnikuman OPs were the first to come to mind. The entire franchise is underrated.



Dr. Slump's Waiwai World is another good one from a classic Toei anime.



Kikaider's Theme of Gemini is a personal favorite.



Astro Boy 1980's OP might be the best use of a choir I've yet heard in an anime.



Coming out the same year as the aforementioned title, Shin Tetsujin 28's OP is equally as fantastic.

@PlasticRobot Holy crap those Kinnikuman OP's are ridiculously enjoyable! I had that anime on my pile of eventually's, but I might have to prioritize watching that one soon much sooner now. Especially with the main guy being voiced by one of my favorite seiyu of all time.

These aren't the literally "most underrated" openings (sorry for not fully answering the thread), but they are pretty good yet not talked about or listened to much anymore.

This a pretty quality song for a not so quality show. So, it's 'underrated' because of the contrast.

My Isekai Life

IMO, very immersive opening for a show that requires a viewer to be immersed (or otherwise they get bored.) It also sounds a little unusual in style when compared to other openings from other shows. And of course, its theme is on point, especially helped by the animation which kinda doesn't make sense at first but brings out all the cool vibes.

Definitely the opening theme song of "Nabari no Ou."



If this had been the opening song of a more popular shounen series then it'd be a classic.
