Title: Best Anime Opening
Post by: Mysterious F. on July 14, 2007, 03:10:16 PM
Well, because the original Anime Opening discussion has become inactive, I'm making a new one:

Basically, just give ONE of your favorite anime openings, and later we'll vote for which is the best.

Well, mine is this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfGBjsm446k).

OBSESSION -- .Hack//Sign (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43O7Dyd3QtU) (song by See Saw)

I adore this song, this entire video... everything about it. The synching is amazing... it's subtle in some places, but blatantly obvious in others.

By the way, here's Dr. Rabies' openings:
Asterik -- Bleach (season one) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqWu8gzy-Gk) (song by ORANGE RANGE (thanks TZ!))
Melissa -- Fullmetal Alchemist (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FudaZz_aYUk) (song by Porno Grafitti)

maybe "Jig THE Upper" by Hi Festa for the 2nd opening of
Demashitaa!Pawa Pafu Garuzu Zetto!

or maybe "Go!!"by Flow used in Naruto

although "Haruka Kanata" by Asian Kung Fu Generation used in Naruto is good too.

Motteke Sailor Fuku - The Lucky Star Opening

Oh and Fisk, Asterix is sung by ORANGE RANGE

Either "Ready Steady GO!" Fullmetal Alchemist opening 2
"Rewrite" Fullmetal Alchemist opening 4
"Kawaita Sakebi" Yugioh opening 0(not a typo)  It's a good song.
"Haruka Kanata"  Naruto opening 2

Best anime opening? Well, if you mean theme song and all, then I'd have to say the opening for Kyou Kara Maou and its theme sonfg, Hateshinaku tooi Sora ni. It's just so catchy!

Listen and be HYPNOTIZED like me.

Hateshinaku tooi Sora ni (http://www.projectplaylist.com/musicsearch?searchfor=Hateshinaku+tooi+Sora+ni&search=search)

It's the English opening... unless you mean the TV op, which is... uh...

Well, I don't know. I could've sworn it was Melissa, though...

Gamefreak's:
Ready Steady GO! -- Fullmetal Alchemist (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4T7ejmrME4)
Rewrite -- Fullmetal Alchemist (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdjnQokZ9Ao)
Kawaita Sakebi -- Yugiiou (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtDBHSZLZvg)
Haruka Kanata -- Naruto (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_Sz_-vxiVk)

melissa was for the first two episodes, not season one
Title: Re:Best Anime Opening
Post by: Fishalicious on July 15, 2007, 11:21:15 AM
Melissa is the one on the DVDs. I watched the DVDs, therefore, it is, in fact, the English opening to me. The television version may have only had Melissa for the first two shows, but it should've been for the entire season.

But, it doesn't matter, if it's not the one you were looking for, then... which one was it?

Freckles as well, the song alone was bloody awesome, plus the original opening that goes with it makes it a whole lot cooler. Of course, it sounds better in English, ZV.

I nominate Texhnolyze (http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance/search/Texhnolyze/video/x2emkn_texhnolyze-vostfr-episode-1-part1-v) This is an anime I've been watching as of late, it's got a lot of stuff that makes it more real... Mind, the first couple minutes is the opening, so... It has a lot of motifs in revolution... There are four groups in a city, they're like the gangs of this city... It's complicated. ANyway... Daily motion is a french site so that's why the subs are in french, heheh...

Heh? Nyuuu you took my idea! Oh, who cares... (lol a pun!)

O well I pick Rewrite from Fullmetal Alchemisthttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laWzZlJAR1k
and Yura Yura from Naruto.

O and the Lucky Star Opening (if some have already been said I'm sorry)

Well, it was something similar.  ;)
Title: Re:Best Anime Opening
Post by: Fishalicious on July 15, 2007, 05:31:59 PM
It's the official first season opening.

Now... we're getting a little bit off topic, that is, unless anyone really discusses which opening is the best. ;)

Also, fans of Yugioh: The Abridged Series might recognize the Yugioh opening I mentioned.

To help bring this topic back, I am going to open an anime ending topic too.
Title: Re:Best Anime Opening
Post by: darkphantomime on July 22, 2007, 11:42:00 AM
Could've been simpler if you continued that in this topic rather than make a new topic for it, because then you would have TWO dead topics on your hand.

This is only for openings, the endings are the opposites.

Silly Go-Round. This isn't the actaul anime opening, which is good, but this is the full song, and the best .hack//G.U. video ever. Even if .hack//SIGN is slightly better than Roots because of Tsukasa.
