The X opening, the second Bleach opening, and all but the second and fourth Code Geass openings.

Don't watch a whole lot of anime, but I have fallen in love with the song.

Ahhh...good ol' Hellsing. I just read the last volume. I really liked that opening for FMA: Brotherhood. I have the whole original series, but I'm just hearing about Brotherhood. Is it a remake to keep in tune with the manga, or a special release of the anime?

The second would be Pokemon Johto, as I really like Pokemon, and the song is so catchy.

The intro is part of the reason why that was the height of the series, really.

And to be honest I don't mind this one:

God, another big favorite of mine here. Just seems so much more, I don't know, classier than most intros. I could do without the prancing bit at the end (despite the essential ballet tie in it brings, it feels disjointed after the tone of the previous bit) but aside from that the intro is as precious as the anime itself.

Hmm, my favorite anime intro... probably the intro to Negima!? [http://www.youtube.com/show/negimamagisternegimagi]

Partly because it underwent minor changes every episode, including an awesome Episode 19:
So much collective awesome in one place brings tears of joy when viewed in retrospect.

Never really that much of a fan of this anime, but this song is just so addicting.

Bleach opening 1. There's just nothing to complain about, it's really nicely put together. Plus I never get tired of listening to Asterisk ^_^

Got to say "Welcome to the NHK". I haven't watched it in about two years, and yet I still have that opening theme stuck in my head.

A little anime called Gundam Wing. Still in love with that show after all these years and the opening sets it for me.

As many poeple already posted I'd say Evangelion's Cruel Angel's Thesis.

I can't believe no one listed Ouran Highschool Host Club yet tho!

Is it sad that I know what episode that's from just by watching it?

And aside from the aforementioned Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, and Baccano!, I have to say my two favorite anime openings are both Nabeshin shows:

Why NDB? Not only is it just random awesomeness, the theme is sung by the voice actors of the characters (Greg Ayres, Luci Christian, and Chris Patton); and the song is just hilarious. Especially the lines that aren't actually shown in the opening:

"Life is good on the country side of things
And I think we will survive
You say our home's a dump, but I will disagree
We keep the dream alive!"

The second:


My adoration for this series knows no bounds. And I love the lyrics of the theme.
"On nights when I think of you
A sweet breeze blows
And a comforting tenderness passes through me."

Death Note's second Opening- Because it had one of the most kick ass songs ever and introduced me to one of the most kick ass band ever.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni's Opening- The song and the video both gives me goosebumps. I also love Kai's opening.

Lucky Star- It's just so...awesome, yet I feel guilty watching it.

Black Lagoon- The song is kick ass, and we get a nice view of Revy's...uh...guns.

Elfen Lied- There may not be a lot of animation in the video, but the song is just gorgeous.

As my avatar might suggest, It's no surprise that I am a fan of Yoko Kanno's music, and Cowboy Bebop would have to be my favorite anime intro. Not only is the music great, but the visuals go along with it really well in making a stylish effect. I have the soundtrack for Cowboy Bebop and I have to say it is all great music. Yoko Kanno is a great composer. She can write good music for any genre, and whatever she writes really fits the mood of whats going on in the show. Anyway, as a Yoko Kanno fan, I have to point out that nobody has posted this yet.
Sorry, I know the video/sound quality isn't the greatest, but it's all I could find.

I also have to say that I REALLY like the opening to Hellsing (my second favortie to Cowboy Bebop). I really liked the song (World Without Logos) first off. And the visuals were cool too. I like the way the ghouls are walking around, and the mirroring/clashing of Alucard and Anderson. And then there is just something I really like about the end, when it's cycling through portaits of all the characters in the background, while a silhouette of Alucard slowly shifts into a pulsating amorphus blob of black magic tendrils, and then breaks apart into a swarm of bats, and then reforms into a silhouette of Alucard again.

I have a lot of favorites, but one that stands out among the others; the second ending to Full Metal Alchemist. I know it's an ending, and I'm sorry, but seriously, it's just that good.


The song is Tobira no Mukou He, and it's one of my all-time favorite songs of any language or style. Beyond that, I love the imagery that the video invokes, starting with the flashbacks to Edward and Alphonse's childhood, including the doll they transmuted for Winry and the picture of their mom holding their early transmutations (thus contrasting the relative innocence of that time, before they were forced to grow up in such violent and tragic fashion). But by far one of my favorite pieces of imagery in the show is near the end, when Edward holds his hands out in the snow; the snowflakes land on his hand and melt, but they land on his automail and maintain their shape. Such a brilliant and powerful way to display the difference in him, the inhumanity of that part of him that he so badly wants to remedy. The symbolism and overall quality of this show is fantastic, and this video is a fine example.

I don't know why, but I just love this one. Can't really explain it.

[sub]Maybe it's because I love the series so much and am incredibly biased.[/sub]

Same just with the ending theme .
It?s scary how much it reminds me of myself.
*Blink* *Blink blink* I hope you don't mean Satou. Or Misaki. Or Yamazaki. Or-you know what, go outside. Do it now. If anyone in that series reminds you of you, go and find a psychiatrist. I don't see you leaving!
