Not really an anime, but it's awesome and it took me forever to find the american version of the opening (the japanese version has lyrics which fuck it up big time) so I'm posting it anyways...that and I can't think of any anime openings I like

and that is 2 out of 3 for my favourite openings.
I suppose this will be my third one
For my money:
Tales of the Abyss: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybTnCcrZsMk
That opening convinced me to buy the game, it's that good.
Full Metal Panic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6E6XH51wJA
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy_oppK6DAo

I'm rolling all three together because it's one of my favorite series, and if I could have populated this list with just those three openings. Seriously, watch it, you won't regret it.
Serial Experiments Lain: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thY2y-NoGjc&feature=related
Fantastic song, beautifully performed, and the opening does nothing to set you up for the mind-rape that's to come.
And, of course, I'd be remiss not to mention the opening from Paprika: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqg3Sw3s9Wg
Yeah, that ended up more like a top six... Don't judge me

#1: Azumanga Daioh/all the Minami-ke ones
#2: Seto no Hanayome...Slash...Nyan Koi!...Slash...K-on!...Slash...Lucky Star...Slash...Haruhi...
#3: The second OP for the first Season of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei( And all of the EDs for it)
Sorry that there's 7 listed down there.
Would've listed Haruhi and Azumanga Daioh, but I figured seven was enough...

1. Clannad (1st OP: Megumeru) - Love this one because 1) the show evokes such an insane amount of emotion that it's impossible not to love this opening, 2) I adore the song, and 3) the amount of foreshadowing, even to events in the second season of the show, is astronomical. Clannad is guaranteed to make you fall in love with the characters, and will probably make you cry at least once, no matter how tough you are.
2. Death Note (1st OP: The WORLD) - Because of the sheer amount of symbolism contained in it, and just for having an awesome song that got my blood pumping before every episode.
3. Naruto Shippuuden (Blue Bird) - Because the show is always packed with emotion, so the songs often bear and reflect that. This amazing song is no exception, with one of the series' better opening videos to accompany it.
And... screw it, I have to include them!!!
4. Full Metal Alchemist (1st OP: Melissa) - Just... great song. And the video is fantastic, pairing perfectly with the early events of the show.
5. Darker Than Black: Gemini of the Meteor (Tsukiakari no Michishirube) - Great song, great video. I really don't know what else to say. Watch Darker Than Black, then partake in this excellent sequel season.
6. Digimon Tamers (The Biggest Dreamer) - Same reasons. Love the song, love the video, foreshadowing is fantastic, etc. Amazing show: it was season 3 of Digimon.
I know I went way over 3, but I couldn't bear only listing three of these... and I even left out Haruka Kanata and Tori no Uta...

Mine would be as followed...
To name a few. I have admittedly played both Higurashi themes in extreme excess; the first over two hundred times in under a week.

Sigh, I have come to the conclusion Rozen Maiden's theme is quite addictive and to which I cast blame on you.
These are my favourites:
Rurouni Kenshin (the first opening)
Blood + (the third opening - Colours of the Heart)
Ghost in the Shell: SAC (first season)

You came across quite rude there. However I do enjoy other shows besides anime, like Scrubs, Doctor Who or Heroes just to name a few. However if it bothers you that much, then feel free to post a non-anime opening that you like. (If you want to that is)fluffybacon said:
