Ever stumble across an anime opening or ending that just hits, but you’ve never actually watched the show and maybe never will? For me, there are songs I’ve had on repeat for years, but I couldn’t tell you a single character from the anime they came from 😅

I can't think of any, besides I don't go looking for anime songs. I search waifu archetypes to find new anime.
My method is more tactical, I am hunting for waifu not soundtracks, by curating waifu design and personality.

To many:
Naruto, Bleach, Tokyo Ghoul, Norogami, Scum's wish or Domestic girlfriend(not sure which one had the good anime, i watched neither)
Those are the only ones i remember without looking at my list.

Sure there's loads of them, the endless shows tend to have great soundtracks, even if I've no desire to ever watch them...

Some pieces that jump to mind are... I've never seen Boruto or Gintama and I'm never going to, but that's a pretty good list of songs... I've never seen Kekkai Sensen but I like the Bump of Chicken song... There's no chance I'm ever gonna get round to watching Magic Kaito 1412 but the Galileo Galilei song is in fairly regular rotation... I've not watched Darker than Black but Rie Fu's song is lovely... Bonnie Pink's song from Guyver, SPYAIR's songs for Haikyuu...

In my opinion this OP song is amazing:




But there is no way I will watch that apotheosis of the harem.

Make anime that are not just a sexual kink please...

I haven’t seen Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood (yet), but I love the second opening. I also like the Ergo Proxy OP.

There are several, but there's only one I can think of right now. I've adored the song Lost in Thoughts for years, but I've never played Fire Emblem Birthrights / Conquest. I'm Playing Awakening rn though, and it's pretty good.

I also really liked the opening for Black lagoon for a good while before I watched the first season.

Man with a Mission
Aimer
Flow
UVERworld
SID
Kenshi Yonezu
just to name a few artists where I have downloaded anime songs from both shows I have and have not watched.

Blue Bird (ブルーバード, Burū Bādo) by Ikimonogakari !!!

It's from some season of Naruto (which I've never seen) but it's a SUPER SOLID anime song, and just a great song in general ! A pretty melody that's sweeeet to the ears

ow + nw = 90-2000s
