Favorite anime opening/ending?

We're a small community based on Super Smash Bros. Brawl. We have a ranking system, but it doesn't matter.

That's right, the rankings are like the Wii Remote Jacket: nobody cares.

If you're seeing this, that means you're a guest, which means you either haven't signed up or you haven't signed in. Unfortunately, we've had to disable guest posting, so if you want to contribute to our community, you'll need to have an account. If you make a new account with us, you'll be limited to posting in the Beginners forum. Once you make just one post there, you'll become a full-fledged member, and you can post wherever (and almost whatever) you want.

We look forward to brawling with you!

That song first introduced me to the B'z and I've been a hardcore fan ever since. And yes, that is also (in my opinion) the BEST Detective Conan opening theme EVER. It even shows bits and pieces of the PV in the opening. <33 My second favorite is Motekke!! Sera Fuku! by Aya Hirano, which is the Lucky Star theme, and my favorite ending is the Haruhi theme, also sung by Aya Hirano, I believe. x33 So, what's your fave opening/ending? And why?

But both the Neon Genesis Evangelion OP and The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya OP are tied for first. Sure, Haruhi should be in first, but I had the same thought in mind the first time I saw both of their openings. "This show is going to be freaking amazing." But Haruhi's ED wins hands down. Just because I can't watch it without doing the dance to myself (in my mind, if not physically).

Uh...let's see...opening would be tied between TTGL and Big O. (TTGL cause I like it and Big O cause...well...it's so badly done it makes me laugh). Ending would be FLCL.

Ninja Pirate Posts: 672 Group: Brawler Member #30 Joined: March 20, 2008	Oh yes, Death Note second opening. Best death metal opening ever. And the way they subbed that for the dubbed version is absolutely hilarious. You all know that that's not what the words mean. You can hear them cursing, but they sub it as something completely different.

Though the first opening is pretty good too.

Well, on top of my list of openings would be Ready Steady Go, which you surely know is the second Fullmetal Alchemist opening, and Smile Bomb, the opening theme from Yu Yu Hakusho. The Fruits Basket opening is just a little behind that. Also every Ranma 1/2 opening theme song ever is awesome. For ending themes, you have to give it up for anything from Inuyasha. It doesn't matter if you hate the plot and every character who ever appeared in it. The ending themes were excellent. Especially Deep Forest. There is no escaping that one.

Inuyasha ftw~ <33 Even though Adult Swim never played the openings, all the Inuyasha openings are awesome as well the endings. -nods- I have all the T.V versions memorized. I also luff the movie endings. Come and Rakuen are the best movie endings ever. <33
