don't get me wrong I've heard some Anime with good opening and ending themes, but I think there's only one Anime out there that I know enough about to say that I love it's soundtrack, Death Note, from it's opening and the songs found in the anime itself, such as the self titled song "Death Note", "L's Theme", "Taikutsu", "Light's Theme" and my favorite out of all of them being "Kodoku", Death Note has been cemented in my mind as one of my favorite anime's and anime soundtracks, with that being said are there any Anime Soundtracks you find to be better than all the rest?

I don’t really have a favorite anime soundtrack but I know that Tokyo ghouls intro is good (despite how bad the series is) crossing field and ignite form sword art online are great songs too. Bleach op6 is pretty catchy too. Other than that I don’t really know many other anime songs that are good.

For me, it's always going to be the Clannad soundtrack.

Revue Starlight has the best soundtrack for obvious reasons if you watch the first episode.

A Whisker Away is really good though. I don't know why, but Walking Home With You and Chase in Nekojima are some of the best songs ever... but they are just background songs to an underappreciated movie on Netflix.
BEASTARS Season 3 will be the best anime ever :)

My top five are those of Inuyasha, Koi Kaze, Higurashi, Shiki, and Mahoutsukai no Yome.

Followed closely by those of Ergo Proxy, Haibane Renmei, and Elfen Lied.

Other honorable mentions/runners-up would be the ones of Kaiba, Kenpuu Denki Berserk, Usagi Drop, Noragami, Mars Red, Serial Experiments Lain, Saraiya Goyou, the Fruits Basket 2019 reboot, Hanasaku Iroha, Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu, and Sora no Woto.

Samurai Champloo and Clannad are some anime that I listen to their soundtrack from time to time since like 15 years ago.

There are many great anime with amazing soundtrack. I wouldn't say that I have a favourite, but I really like AOT and Death Note soundtracks.

Haibane Renmei is my personal favorite. It sounds like a Zelda soundtrack mixed with a Ghibli movie, which is perfect for the atmosphere of the show. I'm also partial to any show that has a particularly jazzy soundtrack (ie Cowboy Bebop, Baccano, Great Pretender).
In the end, all girls are like the rose bride

So many, World Masterpiece Theatre shows like Romeo & Black Brothers have amazing classical OST, Utena has impactful OST, Twelve Kingdoms has great OST, and even One Piece has a superb range of tracks. Gintama also has masterful OST.

Made in Abyss really hits me sometimes. Nice songs. The OG Berserk has some great ones. Utena, but I'm biased. But in all, I'd still give it to Samurai Champloo.

I am not Gintama fan but I loved almost all openings and endings.
Speaking of not just ops and eds but all the music played in the show, my favorite is Wolf's Rain.

I often don't really pay attention to background music sadly, but Made in Abyss and Attack on Titan stood out a lot.
Also every Ghibli ost, I love listen to them - and the lofi girl - in the background.



The cutest thing is my cats sometimes sit there and listen too haha. I just have it muted in the background, so it's not too loud for them.

"Kodoku" is an amazing song, one of my favorites OST.

Naming some animes with good OST, no particular order:
Fairy Tail, Naruto, Bleach, Zankyou no Terror, Clannad, Devilman Crybaby, Angel Beats, Gatchaman Crowds, ID:Invaded, Made in Abyss, Megalo Box, Noragami, Samurai Champloo, Sonny Boy, Tokyo Ghoul.

My favorite OST is Tears of Life from the first Pokémon Movie. Lugia's song (Pokemon movie 2) and Oracion (Pokemon movie 10) are also up there.

Undoubtedly a mixture between Bleach and Demon Slayer.

Both have some of the best osts I've ever heard. JoJo is also very creative at the start.

Naruto and Fairy Tail. Takanashi might be a 1 trick pony at this point, but for someone who gets into anime through some of his music, it sure as hell feels like the best thing ever.
Also, Megalo Box
Gintoki and Sugita's birthdays are 1 day apart.
