This was a really tough category to decide on. So many awesome openings(and endings too, for that matter). Just watching all the videos posted is really awesome. Probably this and the endings one are my two favorite categories.

 

[Uriel]

I would like to nominate We Go from One Piece. I always sing it no matter what :O

[kindredxiuxiu]

You know what? I'm changing my nomination for Lion - Macross Frontier OP 2 to Cha-La Head-Cha-La - Dragon Ball Z

 

[Kazna]

I nominate Ohayou from Hunter x Hunter (1999)

 

[Yuyunarutoballz]

And with that i'd like to change my nomination of Blue Exorcist Opening 2 into Cha La, Head Cha La from Dragon Ball Z.

 

[Ghan]

I support Ohayou

 

[Nii]

Sorairo Days has a supporter so I will withdraw that nomination and nominate

Steins;Gate OP


I remember I watched it every episode. At first because I loved the song, later I started searching for clues to the story

Soul Eater OP1


Both Openings were amazing but I think the first one was a little bit better overall.

Sket Dance OP1


I always liked it, that's the reason why I started watching the anime and thus the manga later on.

Just letting the mods know the result for this poll is not hidden, don't know if it intentional or an error.

I nominate After Dark from Bleach. Couldn't find the opening with sound posted anywhere, so here's an episode with it.

Thx for nominating After Dark! I will vote for it. Search "After Dark, Asian Kung-Fu Generation" and you can listen to the non-op version on YouTube as well. Their "Haruka Kanata, " which was an old Naruto OP is still one of my favorites.

 

[Leonsagara]

I did search on Youtube and might have seen that, but this category was supposed to be the opening, not just the song. Don't get me wrong, the song's great, but it's only half the category.
