Spice and Wolf for sure.

Heaven's Lost Property was another opening I remember enjoying.

No endings really come to mind for me.

I cannot choose only one among them.

SAO OP 1 Crossing Field by LiSA
Log Horizon OP 1 Database (english)
FMAB OP 1 Again by YUI

AnoHana ED (emotional, especially when it started playing at the end of episode 5)
Gosick ED Resuscitated Hope
Devil Survivors 2 ED (engrish)

Main reason is because they're catchy. I love it whenever it gets to the 'high' point of the song. Those are the ones on top of my head now.

1. Evangelion OP, Deep shit
2. LoGH OP 4, Yes, believe it or not
3. Gintama' OP 1, Perfectly describes what Gintama is all about
4. Gintama OP 1, Nostalgia factor
5 Macross OP, Epic

Honorable mentions from current animes I've been watching:

Gunbuster OP, The 80s beat is 2strong
Zeta Gundam OP 1, I love it, it's very different to all mecha OPs I've seen

OP - NGE
ED - Non Non Biyori


Have to agree, NGE's OP is pretty nice, but the more jolly, upbeat nature of the song totally doesn't reflect the dark atmosphere of the story. :P That's something that kinda bothered me when watching that anime.


I think that's the point of it.

My favorite OP:

Soul eater first OP. It's probably my favorite OP of all time, it's one of the first OP I ever set through, I used to skip them.

OP 13 from Naruto Shippuden.

Naruto shippuden OP 8. I love it because it has symbolsim and because I really like the song.

Naruto shippuden OP 6. It's just so emotional because of what happens in it, I tear up or get emotional every time on the Jiraya part. Plus it signify the loss of two important people for Sasuke and Naruto, I thought that was a nice contrast. A very great fitting OP for the arc it was used on.

Those are the main ones that I can remember.


Favorite ED:

Naruto Shippuden ED 12. My favorite ED of all time, I just love it so much, which is ironic since I used to skip most of the ED and OP. I love the song and the scenes used in it, just amazing.

Naruto Shippuden ED 28. WARRING DON'T WATCH IF YOU ARE NOT CAUGHT UP WITH NARUTO. A recent favorite, I can explain because of the spoilers. But I really really love the artwork in it, and of course the song. It's just so emotional and it made me like someone even more, I always tear up at a certain part.

Naruto Shippuden ED 27. Like the others before it, this one is also very emotional. I love the song, I listen to it a lot and it still gives me goosebumps. So well done.


Those are my top 3, I love a lot of other ones but these are the ones that stood out for me. But I'm probably forgetting a lot of other great OP/ED from other series. Honorable mention to HxH latest ED.


The OP/ED and OST is one of the main reasons that I'm thankful that Studio Perriot is whose in charge in adapting Naruto and not a studio like Toei.

My favorite is Sket Dance Op4, "Message". I just love it since the first time that I listened it and until now can't stop listening it.

The opening of Evangelion is the most epic and perfect thing I've ever seen. Same goes for the opening and ending of Baccano. I also love the opening of Dragon Ball GT, despite the anime being bad.

Op:
To Aru Majutsu No Index II: See VisionS
This opening really fit this part of the series for some reason. I just really like the song itself too mainly because it's Mami Kawada. She does a fantastic job at Index and Shana theme songs.

Ed:
Ao No Exorcist: 2 P.M. Take off
I've only listened to a few 2 p.m. songs but this one I definitely like the most. There's just something about it that makes me love it so much.


Yep. Blue Exorcist ending 1 is one of the catchiest anime opening/endings I've ever heard (completed 70 series according to MAL). I watched the first 3 episodes of it in my college anime club a few years back, and I just remember that ending being really fun to listen to.

My favourite anime opening theme music is "H.T" from Trigun. I just love the rock music vibe. It sounded so great, I downloaded it and have it on my mp3 player.

My favourite anime ending theme music is "Do You Feel Like I Feel" from Hunter x Hunter 1999. It's the second ending theme music of the show. I enjoy how upbeat it is. Hunter x Hunter 1999 has one of the best scores and soundtracks in anime.

One of my favorite EDs is Jikan no Tomare or Stop the Time from Itazura na Kiss. It's not the animation that makes it my favorite but the music, lyrics and the fact that it goes so well with the anime's theme.

My favorite ending is really a easy one, Elfen Lied - Lilium although for the ending It's a draw between Monster and Black lagoon. I have no idea why I like these 3 songs so freaking much

The anime series are okay but I really loved the OP of Nightwalker: Midnight Detective and the ED of Miami Guns.The OP to Nighwalker Midnight Dective is like a Japanese version of Depeche Mode.The ED to Miami Guns is simple a slow moving camera over a naked female that flashes back and fourth between that and a band playing.
