| There probably aren't a lot out there but I'm curious as to see if there are any other english ops out there. so far I only know of history maker, deadman wonderland's op, and the cells at work pv. |
 |
| Do you mean ones that aired in Japan but are sung IN English? I give it to X.U. from Owari No Seraph. I've never been so in love with a song of this type. xD Then if you mean ones that were DUBBED into English by companies in the USA... Tenchi Muyo (Universe)'s OP by far. Although the original Japanese band sang this version too so that's why it still sounds amazing. xD I actually PREFER it over the Japanese version. |
  |
| You mean engurishu only or english songs sung by English/American people too? Even though this anime let me down, Eden of the east's op Oasis - Falling down remains one fo my favorite. |
''Enemies' gifts are no gifts and do no good.'' |
| Of course, the most famous Pokemon op theme goes in my mind first. Although , I don't watch dubs but I remember that airing when I was a kid. Edit: If it is an English opening not from a dub, I like Mushishi's The Sore Feet Song. |
  Once we realize it, everything will fall into place Our hearts calling to the future with all their might We'll move forward, holding each other's shaking hands |
| My pick would have to be Lucy Rose's "Shiver"—the Mushishi Zoku Shou OP. It's stylistically very similar to music I already listen to on a regular basis, though. Beautiful voice, indie-folk vibes. I love it so much. |

| Gotta go with Ergo Proxy. It's just hypnotic. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| It's "I wanna be the very best..." |
 |
| These are the ones I could remember, but there's surely more. It's hard to choose, but Yu Yu Hakusho's opening is probably my favorite. Yu Yu Hakusho One piece Ouran High School Host Club Afro Samurai Cowboy Bebop Movie Psycho Pass The World God Only Knows Samurai Champloo Suzuka |
| Country Roads by John Denver. Everybody knows that. Best anime song of all time. The best Japanese op is Yoko Hanna's rendition of Country Roads by John Denver. |

Awoo :3 |
| Parasyte - Let me hear. By the way, it took about 40 years to understand that it was in English. They should have told us, at the very least but they didn't and we realized it years after the show debuted |
| just to clarify I think both works tbh. as long as it's an "official" op then it sounds solid in my book |

| never seen rave master but the english toonami opening is so perfectly tongue in cheek https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnJa2kZx5GY QUUUEEESSSSTTTTT FOR GLOOOORRRYYYYY |

-Swish said: These are the ones I could remember, but there's surely more. It's hard to choose, but Yu Yu Hakusho's opening is probably my favorite. Yu Yu Hakusho As soon as I saw this thread's title, I was already getting Smile Bomb ready. You saved me the trouble, thanks! But yeah, Smile Bomb is definitely my favorite English OP. They did a really good job on it! I always kinda feel like some dubbed songs never added any of the English singer's feelings and personality, but music really needs that. When it comes to dubbed music, the singing needs that extra push. It's all cool if the lyrics translate word for word and flow well, but if the FEELING doesn't reach the new target audience then it's just not as impactful-- no good. Smile Bomb's English version added a certain soul to it that some other dubbed songs seemed to think they didn't need. The singer actually tried to make the song THEIRS, and that's what you're supposed to do with ANY song cover. You don't just sing it. |
| "Gotta Catch Em' All" -- Pokemon. More iconic...impossible. |
| And you don't seem to understand A shame you seemed an honest man And all the fears you hold so dear Will turn to whisper in your ear And you know what they say might hurt you And you know that it means so much And you don't even feel a thing I am falling, I am fading I have lost it all And you don't seem the lying kind A shame then I can read your mind And all the things that I read there Candle lit smile that we both share and you know I don't mean to hurt you But you know that it means so much And you don't even feel a thing I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning Help me to breathe I am hurting, I have lost it all I am losing Help me to breathe |

| Both Mushishi OP for sure, Sore Feet song gives off a different vibe in the full song ver. but it's fantastic in the TV ver. And there's a sample of "Shiver" posted above already! The series is just a masterpiece. |

| Easily Kaiba: I feel like the show isn't as talked about nowadays, it sort of fell through the cracks at the time apart from critics and Yuasa fans and this marvelous OP along with it, which is a damn shame. Beautiful, slow, and tranquil, like a lot of the show itself. Serial Experiments Lain is a close second. Mushishi is well known for its English intro and the ambient musical score of the show as a whole definitely adds to its atmosphere, but as a standalone piece the song doesn't stick with me. Believe it or not some of the anime dubbed in English aimed for kids on WB Saturday mornings that had their OPs redone to keep it all in the same language actually ended up being pretty good, with the original Pokemon Indigo League one the most iconic and one of the best too. Filled with energy and gets you pumped for the show. |
| The only true answer COME AND SAVEEEEE MEEEE |
 |
| The one that strikes me the most was the opening of Gankutsuou. Its so bittersweet and holds a nostalgic memory to me. |

| Arifureta have lots of problem but the anime OP song isn't one of them. |

| A mix of both Japanese and English is "Sousei no Aquarion" Black Lagoon's opening Shaman King's op |

natsudragneel-61 said: Pokemon openings in English are pretty good True dat. The Johto and Hoenn English songs were amazing. |

| Put your grasses on, nothing will be wong |
 |
| I usually skip op that are in Engrish but I quite liked these two: |
 |
| Serial experiments lain op Gunslinger girl op Both are SOOO GOOD |
| Of course Berserk 1997's op xdddddd |
| for english i guess Pokemon I wanna be the Very Best, i dont really watch a lot of english ops :p |
 |
| The thread title really sounded like 'What's a better English anime op song than pokemon op?' I don't know, I might come up with an answer but as for now no. 45 post in still no English song that I recognized. I guess it's because I personally prefer Japanese song. |
| Not OP but imo the Death Parade ED is the best english-sung one I've found and is also among my favorites. |
ええ、私はそこにいてそれをやった  |
| Okay, this is fan-made so it doesn't count...I guess BUT IT IS A TREASURE AND WE CAN'T "NOT TALK ABOUT IT" XDDD yeah you're welcome |
|
| This one may sound cheesy but it's a big source of nostalgia for me. |
| Some of you never watched Bakugan Battle Brawlers on TeleToon in 2008 and it shows. REST IN PEACE KENTAROU MIURA |
| These are my favorites personally: Also it's an ending but this song is freaking great: |
