Neon Genesis Evangelion, the most epic and beautiful thing that I've ever seen. The same goes to Cowboy Bebop.

Season 2 op of 'Death Note' will always be the best in my opinion, hands down! - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGQAjAjsZNo


I think this is a serious contender as worst opening of all time.


oh really, well the 13,000+ other people who liked the song take my side while you only have 363 people who agree with you, so you my friend can sit the f*ck back down.

I disagree, oddly enough, I think the show fits the song very well. Especially since


I can definitely understand why people would dislike it, though.

And then you realize a couple million people have seen the series and that stats on a youtube video mean nothing. I'm sure 90%+ of the people who saw that video only did so because they had liked the song prior.

I think it's alright, fits the show but isn't all that memorable of an op.

Don't make me pick

Seto no Hanayome
Attack on Titan
Mirai Nikki
Baccano!
This haruhi suzumiyah opening
Soul Eater's first opening
Every Highschool DxD opening ever
Spice & Wolf
SAO
Clannad: AS

...

I'll just say Clannad AS cause I always get just a small bit of emotion stirred up in me somewhere every time I hear it.

As a kid I really enjoyed the opening of Shaman King. Reminded me of playing dragonforce on guitar hero. :3
Gintama had a great opening too, one of the only openings where I sat through the entire thing for every single episode.

I could literally watch the opening of Evangelion a million times. It's amazing even after seeing hundreds of opening after it.

Also I love the opening for Clannad AS because not only is the song great but the lyrics and meaning + context it has towards the events in the series is so powerful. Always gives me the feels man

You're not even kidding bro, I know. That's like one of my favorite openings.There is no other anime that i know of that gave me that many feels and manly tears that were shed. It's pretty damn powerful stuff, man.

Durarara OP 2 is fits the second half of the show's mood perfectly and it's also great on its own.

Honorable mention to the Tales of the Abyss OP.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwnX3A4Uhgo
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...
