debate time: Best anime openings

[TWIST.BY.KORN]

Lemme know what your favorite anime opening is 

for me I think its gotta be either attack on Titan season 1 or berserk tell me why - penpals

[Sakura]

My favorite of all time is probably the Kenshin opening with the "Freckles" song. It was always so catchy that I even find myself still singing it randomly to myself even though it's been years since I watched Kenshin lol ~

My second favorite would be the DBZ Super opening theme #2

And my third favorite would probably be the GITS opening, I always loved listening to the opening song.

(Star Blazers /Space Battleship Yamato) From a nostalgic POV since the original was my introduction to anime

(Bubblegum Crisis OVA) More nostalgia from the era when I first started buying anime VHS tapes

(Trigun Stampede) Probably the most recent one that really stood out for me. Has a very different sound to it than most anime OPs and perfectly matches the series overall tone

my favourite is definitely the first death note OP (the world - nightmare). i'm probably just biased because death note is my favourite anime, but i love the world

The third opening of Black Clover is very good as well as the fifteenth opening of Fairy Tail.

I will have to call out Attack on Titan the first episode was really heart-breaking that's just the best way to introduce an Anime.

My favorite is the first Vinland Saga op

Best of 2024

Yeah, the first episode of Attack on Titan was really insane it made me want to watch everything. I absolutely agree with your choice on that man.

I was hesitant to watch it, but when I did, I found that it's one of the best anime stories.

Vinland Saga is nothing short of a masterpiece. Season 2 could not have surprised me more in how they approached and yet still delivered on everything.

[Gale]

It's been a hot second since I watched Bleach, but this OP always comes to mind.

 

[Ohayotaku]

This one definitely hits different now that it’s over.

I like how they changed the dynamic in Season 2, and the character development was great.
