Postby TwilightKissC3 » Thu Mar 04, 2004 4:50 pm

Ok. You know how every Anime has an opening and ending Theme Song. :eyeroll: Well who could ever tell what the best ones were? Well voice your opinion here!!!!!!!!! :pinned:

Mine would have to be a tie between the opening of Out Law Star and the Cowboy Bebop Ending (the Real Folk Blues)

:angel: All of the Inuyasha Endings rock tooo. Especially Fuki Mori and Dearest!!!

"Free Bird", opening to Haibane Renmei.

My favorite ending song:

"The Real Folk Blues" from Cowboy Bebop. (though I also like "Ride on Shooting Star" from FLCL).

Is this limited to theme songs? I think my favorite anime song of all time would have to be "Ordinary Girl' from CCS. Don't ask me why, but I've become attached to that.

Mine would have to be the opening song of DNAngel. Expect for some reason I can't remember the name of it now! I'll probably remember it as soon as I hit "reply" >_<
:Edit: Ahh ha ha! I remembered (well actually I just looked at my playlist :sweat: ) it's called True Light.

That song so rocks though, even the piano solo is great. I think my second favorite is Grip from Inuyasha. Although Saiyuki has some great songs, and so does Fullmetal Alchemist, Peacemaker Kurogane, and Get Backers.

Anime theme songs that I consider impressionable:

"Tank!" from Cowboy Bebop
"The Real Folk Blues" from Cowboy Bebop
"Thesis of a Cruel Angel" from Neon Genesis Evangelion
"Fly Me to the Moon" from Neon Genesis Evangelion
"Duvet" from Serial Experiments Lain
"Message #9" from Gasaraki
"Soramimi Cake" from Azumanga Daioh (musically not one of my favorites, but it fits the series very well)

My favorite anime song - it's not a themesong, sorry - stems from the first anime I watched: Sailor Moon.


"My Only Love"


Deep in my soul

Love so strong

It takes control


Now we both know

The secrets bare

The feelings show


Driven far apart

I'll make a wish

On a shooting star


(Chorus)


There will come a day

Somewhere far away

In your arms I'll stay

My only love


Even though you're gone

Love is still the bond

The feeling is so strong

My only love


(Repeat Chorus)


You've reached the deepest part

Of the feeling in my heart

I've known it from the start

My only love


(Repeat Chorus)


My only love


~*~*~*~*~

Maybe I agree with Chris4150, haha.

[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE


You see into the deepest part of me ---

beyond the fog I hide behind.

You cast your light upon the shadows

that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.

You ease the pain when I am hurting,

and morbid visions from my past

pierce into the realm of Reason

as though I danced on blades of glass.

You grant me strength when I have fallen

and, once again, I've lost my way.

You take my hand in Yours and lead me

into the promise of a brand new day.

You bring order to all my chaos,

yet set my well-laid plans awry.

You place me on a firm foundation ---

then give me wings so I can fly.

You sand away my roughened edges

and polish all the dullest parts

until I stand before Your presence...

a newly-sculpted work of art.

You see into the heart within me,

right through my motives and selfish will.

And yet, in spite of all You see

You say You love me even still.

Thanatos (If I can't be yours) Jazz Mix - Loren & Mash | End of Evangelion

Now its time I fear to tell
I’ve been holding it back so long
But something strange deep inside
Of me is happening
I’ve feel unlike I’ve ever felt
And it’s making me scared
That I may not be What I
Think I am

What of us, what do I say
Are we both from a different world
‘Cos every breath that I take
I breathe it for you
I couldn’t face my life without you
AndI’m so afraid
There’s nothing to comfort us
What am I
If I can’t be yours?
I don’t sleep, don’t feel a thing
And my senses have all but gone
Can’t even cry from the pain
Can’t shade a tear now
I realise we’re not the same
And it’s making me sad
‘Cos we can’t fulfil our dreams
In this life

So I must let us break free
I can never be what you need
If there was a way through the hurt
Then I would find it
I’d take a blow yes I would fight it
But this is the one
Impossible dream to live
What am I
If I can’t be yours?


It's so me.

How about anime songs that get stuck in your head? I used to get "Thesis of the Cruel Angel" from NGE stuck in my head all the time. And "Soramimi Cake" from Azumanga Daioh is a really "get-stuck-in-your-head" kind of song... get stuck in the head and drive you crazy, but it's a fun song.

I still stand by my favorites, though. I think "Free Bird" is a favorite primarily because it is an instrumental. I can't post lyrics to it here because there are none!

Oh dear ... there's too many to choose from! I will say that my #1 fav is ... um ... (why on earth do I find it so hard to actually declare a favorite above all the others? It's not like it really matters ...) Ok, I've decided. It's "Sea of Miracles" from the opening of Record of the Lodoss War - Chronicles of the Heroic Knight.

I obsess over "So Many Memories" (Ranma season 3 theme) and the English remix of "Love Panic!" from the Ranma OAVs. I'm also rather fond of "Kanashimi yo, Konnichiwa" from Maison Ikkoku and "Lum no Ballad" from UY.

There's so many good openings and endings....wow, where to start.
I absolutely love the Shaman King and Yu-Gi-Oh openings (The originals, not the crappy US openings) Haruka Kanata from Naruto is pretty good. The Kenshin opening is too. So is H.T. from Trigun. I like Gundam Wing's Rhythm [sp?] Emotion. Tank! from Cowboy Bebop is pretty good. All the Ranma 1/2 openings I've seen so far were enjoyable (Don't Make me Wild Like You, Zettai!. Chikyu [sp?] Orchestra, Love Panic!, ect) FLCl's Ride On Shooting Star is one of my favorites...the list goes on...

As for endings, there are very few that I actually like, since endings seem to be slow. Probably the 3 that I enjoy most are Rakuen (Yu-Gi-Oh), Wind (Naruto), and the ending to Kenshin (forgot what it was called)..

Well....um....yeah.

Not only that, but the mold had a will of its own, it was terrible! Barricading ourselves in the science prep room, we used spirit lamps and engaged in combat! Then I realized it!! If we only had the bottle of mildew remover from the bathroom, we could destroy them!!

Hmmmm.
Well, I've enjoyed listening to quite a few:

Naruto 1st and 2nd opening
Shaman King openings and endings
Hikaru no Go 3rd opening
All of the Inuyasha openings
Rurouni Kenshin 1st opening
Tenchi Universe and Tenchi in Tokyo openings
Yu Yu Hakusho openings
Hunter X Hunter 1st opening
Gundam Wing openings
Gundam Seed openings
Some of the Detective Conan openings and endings
One Piece 1st and 2nd openings and some of the endings

and there are others not listed that I've enjoyed. Keep in mind that I haven't seen much of most of the above anime series. I, however, download a lot of openings and endings off of the internet.

Fukai Mori! Especially watching Fukai Mori! (It's the second ending theme to Inuyasha)

And also, the one that really got me to pay attention to anime songs, White Reflection from Gundam Wing. :thumb:
