I was considering doing a topic for "All time best anime openings" but I knew that A) It would be a redundant list and unoriginal and B) if I did that I'd be called a heathen for not including this


Or this


So yeah so why don't we all list the opening themes that were released in 2014 that we personally liked a lot

My all-time favourite opening theme this year would without a doubt be Stand Proud from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders. Awesome vocals and visuals and that scene with Star Platinum punching the hell out of your computer monitor is just too awesome to describe


This Game from No Game no Life: Even though I personally despise the show I thought this opening was actually quite good.

Heavenly Blue from Aldnoah.Zero: Pretty cool visuals and a big sweeping sense of drama that fits the show quite well in my opinion.

Unravel from Tokyo Ghoul: A very "emo-centric" song but it has a really awesome buildup to the chorus as well as having awesome splashes of colour when showing the female leads of the show.

So what are examples of good openings that you guys have seen this year?

I was going to burst a vein when I saw you topic title and then saw the first two videos, but then I actually read the words and calmed down, hahaha..ha....

Probably going to have to say Resonance of Terror because that and Aldnoah.Zero are the only shows I'm actually watching.
But it's really nice visually, and it's kind of sort of abstract, which I like (I really dislike too on the nose openings, but they rarely are except for a few Naruto openings and Log Horizon, which gives away almost the whole show).

There's not enough action in it to be a mecha opening for me, and the song bugs me because the chorus sounds really similar to the chorus from "to the beginning," Fate/Zero's second opening.

Though I haven't watched the series myself, a friend in a user-group posted the opening to Gokukoku no Brynhildr and it's just amazing. Great techno sound with what sounds like a little bit of dubstep. First anime OP I've heard with no lyrics that I've enjoyed.
