Anime openings that are criminally underrated? For me, it's Sagrada Reset ops, Midnight Occult Civil Servants, The Millionaire Detective, Granbelm, Attack On Titan op 2, Jujutsu Kaisen op 2, Iron Blooded Orphans ops, Your Lie In April op 2, and Terra Formars that I enjoy a lot but are sadly underrated in some way.

Platinum End and Nomad had some real bangers.

Whoops. Platinum End OP is age restricted so no embedding I guess. Still worth opening a new tab for.

If anyone wants to see a show about handsome old men who wear glasses and are connoisseurs of all things cuisine, cheese & wine, do check Ristorante Paradiso out.

In my opinion, the whole show is probably the most underrated and poorly scored CGDCT ever besides Girlfriend (Kari).

I don't know about underrated but their is one anime opening theme that I like that I don't really think is all that popular. That would be Dark Cherry Mystery from Owarimonogatari S2.

I personally think that this OP is really creative and well made. It highlights the themes of this show really well. I like it a lot.

happy sugar life is a quite controversial anime, similarly to domestic girlfriend, but both have incredible OPs, and the discourse about the anime often makes people gloss over that fact

also the albums of the artists that made these songs are incredible too

These are some of the ones in my favorite OPs from all of anime list which I consider to be actually significantly lesser known and underappreciated in all references to and discussions about the series either when the series first aired (for those I've followed a record on the internet of) or in the discussions pertaining to it since.

The first may come as a surprise, but it's still one of my favorite OPs from all of anime, from my top favorite series, and considering how decently mainstream and popular the series itself was in its heyday at least, I always thought this one got the shaft. I'd speculate the only reason is because of the much more iconic first OP of the series which preceded it, "Change the World". Don't get me wrong - I love the first OP as well. It's definitely my second favorite of the series after the second (and in my view these first two also blow the later ones out of the water), but second to me is a superior encapsulation of the spirit of the series.

Inuyasha - OP 2:

Kaiba OP:

Shiki OP:

Aishiteruze Baby OP: (unfortunately the original TV version keeps getting copyrighted on the video sharing platform website for some inane and pointless reason)

Mars Red OP:

Sora no Woto OP:

Shinreigari OP:

Hanasaku Iroha OP:

Gankutsuou OP:

Witch Hunter Robin OP:

Uta-Kata OP:

Heike Monogatari OP:

Majo no Tabitabi:

Akebi's Sailor Uniform:

Also, may have a new favored among the underrated treasures entry, but maybe a bit too soon to say since the series was only released about three months ago and I only finished it last month:

Arknights: Reimei Zensou:

Inuyasha - OP 2:

Witch Hunter Robin OP

Just wanted to say these are two excellent choices.  

My additions would be
The 4th Inu Yasha opening:  "Grip!" by Every Little Thing
Blue Genders:  "Tokihanate!" by Houko Kuwashima
His and Her Circumstances:  "Tenshi no Yubikiri" by Fukuda Mai
.Hack/Sign:  "Obsession" by See-Saw
The 4th Eureka Seven opening:  "Sakura" by NIRGILIS
And most of the Ranma 1/2 openings

This is where my ignorance of what the anime community at large actually feels like things, but I guess these would be considered underrated?
