The Most Popular Anime Opening of Each Year (1975-2024) - MUSICIAN REACTION

[@gerandparawan9817]

thanks for the moment of silence 5:52 XD

[@orianamedhestchanel3894]

Yeah, anime is old, first TV anime show Astro Boy was released in early 1960s, and after that first step to grow(anime existed earlier but not as shows and not even close as popular as now, even in Japan, but thats world trand for many things in common) industry became quite big in times of +- 1975-1980s.

[@Dr.Mlieko]

Fun fact, the oldest anime (at least on TV) goes as far back as the 1960s

[@lamaman538]

I'm 52 years old and I've been watching anime since I was 6 years old. So I know a lot of animated videos, including the first ones that were broadcast in France in the mid-70s.

[@jochendamm]

@Millie-Mochis Anime exist for a century now. Like Disney in the 1920s. There were even propaganda anime for WWII but most materials are lost. Original Dragon Ball series (Dragon Ball Classc) is an adaptation from 1986. In October 1969, Fuji Television started an anime series, which is still on the air today and currently in production, making it one of the longest-running scripted TV series in history and the longest running animated show with more than 8500 episodes in 214 seasons.

[@laurainathunderstorm]

You're talking about Sazae-san right?

[@nyarlacroquette4015]

Bubblegum Crisis is a SF/action anime, but the main character is also a singer. So there are many catchy songs in the anime, like Mad Machine or Konya wa Hurricane.

[@BRM81]

As someone who is watching anime for over 20 years i highly recommend that you watch older animes (70s-80s) There are a lot of 10/10 Anime i promise you. A lot of them are Milestones who inspired other mangaka

[@warmfridge856]

Like Ranma 1/2!

[@ENDtredecim]

I believe you would have so much fun listening to the Openings and Endings to Katekyo Hitman Reborn!(KHR) the songs have always been so soooo good on top of it being a solid anime! Fun fact during it's airing it was beating out the big 3 in popularity for a time.

[@stephenrichmond-bey7665]

You are cultured af.

[@titrok09822]

FMAB has a great dub version (one of the best I have seen). That being said, there is nothing wrong with the original version. It's ultimately your choice, you'll love it either way I think.

[@benji8719]

No the oldest anime was from 1917

[@nyarlacroquette4015]

And the TV anime started in 1963 with Tetsuwan Atom.

​@@nyarlacroquette4015Not exactly the first tv anime but the first one with 20 min episodes

[@BRM81]

Hokuto no Ken is the best anime of all time in my opinion. It has inspired most shonen anime of today

[@EslamNawito]

If you want old anime these I can recommend: 80's Period igano kabamaru Ranma 1/2 90's period Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water Shinseiki Evangelion 2000 School Rumble Black Lagoon Baccano (Story told in out of order perspective episodes 😵 but all comes around) Kekkaishi Detroit Metal City 2008 (Metal Band 🤘🏻+ comedy)

[@johanstenfelt1206]

It’s such a fascinating development see, how things has started and changed. Also, Fun Fact: I am as Old as the Pokémon Anime and the One Piece Manga. Regardless this was a very well done List and a good Reaction. By the way, I would like to see your reaction to my Touhou Project: All Fan-Made Openings (all that I could find anyway and what I think could count as an Opening anyway) Playlist at some point, It’s very interesting to see how much a Fanbase is capable of for a Franchise they passionate about.

[@LuffyxNamiisathing]

So you are as "old" as me so not that old

[@lamphan4333]

9:08 Actually "HunterXHunter" manga is quite old now. The 2011 version is a renewed version because the old anime version is too... old to be carried on and some of the VAs didn't have the condition to continue. But sad news for the 2011 version again: the VA of that character who wears glasses and a vest passed away a few years ago. The author of the manga himself is having some health issues, so the manga is now on stated hiatus, and doesn't know when it could continue. But needless to say, HxH is a big name in Japan - especially at its time. It inspires manga like "JJK", "Naruto", part of "One Piece", "Bleach" and "Demon Slayer",...

Older anime are great if you can get your hands on them, I remember really liking Saint Seiya when I was younger. Who is considered the father of animanga is Osamu Tezuka who is the author of the first TV serialised anime in the mid 60s I believe, it's called Astroboy in English, he's also the creator of an anime I really enjoy called Dororo, it first aired in 1969 and got a reboot in 2019.

[@TheGabFer83]

City Hunter its a classic anime with a great Ost, especially the first ending wich is one of more recognizible in Japan. You should react to it some day

[@SuperFanCom]

I think you would adore Kids on the slope , it basically about a a band But bring a box of tissues

[@laurainathunderstorm]

Oh Kids on the Slope is one of my favourites! Love the story and the character arcs.

[@speedrunner3312]

Anime is way older than 1975, Millie. It goes back as far as 1960, maybe even further!

[@alexlandsbergs]

a lot older, especially based on deffinition. anime literally is just the japanese word for animation. which would date back to 1908, but assuming you mean animation specifically from japan, 1917.

[@UltimateGamerCC]

first TV Anime was in the 1960s you are correct, Anime started via short film in 1917 with their first full length picture in the 1940s, almost 10 years following Disney's Snow White in fact.

[@speedrunner3312]

@@UltimateGamerCC Yeah that is so insane to me wow. 1917..

I still wonder how I’m 37 years old now and I watched the whole Bubblegum Crisis and Devilman animes in Locomotion at the time lol… There was no censorship at the time 😂

[@camronk1356]

The type of music you are probably thinking of for the early 1980's is Tokyo city pop. I can leave a link in a comment of a good 1 hour set of city pop if the viewers like that type of music

2:10 You should definitely watch Gigguks video: Mecha: The Rise & Fall of Giant Robots, just to actually know basic roots of anime and that Transformers are aliens that are not part of proper mecha genre.

[@Ryuu44]

"You must watch" the way that will bring you the most joy. Anime is made, and directed in Japan with the Japanese VA in mind. Why take the original art, and add an extra layer of some American company giving it an American interpretation, if reading subtitles doesn't seam to be a problem to you. Some people will say they can't focus on the show when they have to focus on reading, and that's a fine reason if you're the same. FMA has a good dub, but that dub is still a filter over the original show and any authorial intent.

[@zsmate2526]

So many good anime!

[@dhamtom9]

I think that the firsr anime if I'm not wrong is Astro Boy that is older than the 70s. There is a video of save one opening per year or anime that could help you meet more animes with epic openings

[@laurainathunderstorm]

Astroboy was the first anime that was serialised on TV, I do believe there were animes before that tho.

[@AbrahamLeyvaPeralta]

Let me give you some advice...if it's your first time watching any anime..always pick the original voices...Japanese V.A. are in another level.

[@Nelson_Win]

I thought Millie was going to say "James Bond" but she keeps saying "Spy×Family" instead.

[@stephenrichmond-bey7665]

Yo. You git quiet when code geass came on. Why? Thats deff a good watch for you. Great op. Fmab is a great dub with a great story. But you should watch code geass!

[@carlosochoa9686]

FMAB tiene un buen doblaje al inglés, aunque siempre aconsejaría verlo en su idioma original :)

[@Neo-Queenserenityt2l]

I'd love to see your reactions to Precure opening, if you like Sailor Moon you'll love Precure as well, yes they're more aimed at a younger audience than Sailor Moon but the Openings are bangers upto the latest one

[@santoshumbertozunigaardon3315]

Nicholas Tv Vs. G O T - the popularest japanese animated series of (each) year.

[@eijikasa7951]

The opening song of "Devilman" is also a masterpiece.

[@a-nakama]

anime about band, K-ON, BECK, bocchi the rock, top tier anime about band, for kimi no uso, fuuka, white album 2, FKM, more romance to sadness, giant killing, kid on the slope, more to jazz, honoravle mention, Kono Oto Tomare!, Hibike! Euphonium, that list is my personalized list that i have watch, 90% weebs will agree, on 10% maybe i dont see or hear, give me reason or watch list, or tittle, so i can move order my rank on that

[@a-nakama]

pls react to K-ON opening ending

[@laurainathunderstorm]

Agree with you but the format is a little messy, I'll make it into a list: *Band Anime* K-ON BECK Bocchi The Rock *Music anime w/romance* Your Lie in April Fuuka White Album 2 FMK Given (my addition to the list) *Jazz music anime* Giant Killing Kids on the Slope (my personal favourite) *Honorable Mentions* Kono Oto Tomare! Hibike! Euphonium.

[@a-nakama]

@@laurainathunderstorm the reason im not include angelbeats on list is that not band anime focused, or music genre, but if someone interested in anime with band at school festival or just on stage, skate dance is good too, tho its comedy anime, but u will find roller coaster feel in it, and have good op ed too

[@laurainathunderstorm]

@@a-nakama wait really? I just always thought it was about music, thanks for correcting me I'll edit it.

[@michaelmengis5230]

YOU SHUD DEFINITLY REACT TO HELLSING OP I EVEN RECOMAND ELFEN LIED (MUSIC TITEL:LILIUM)

[@dekamaster100]

Definitely watch Dragon Ball! Hope to see you react to that series

[@Wolverine31]

It should have been 1983 Captain Tsubasa.

[@Animanigator45]

I think that was popular anime but not popular as opening in '83

[@laurainathunderstorm]

Many popular anime did not have popular openings, like HxH 1999, or Yu Yu Hakusho. So the chances are Captain Tsubasa's opening song wasn't very widely played.

[@Junior123715]

Man, i'm pretty sure SPECIALZ was the most popular in 2023

[@UltimateGamerCC]

not really...

[@omlet27]

no way it was more popular than idol

[@carlosochoa9686]

Nope, the most popular was idol

[@laurainathunderstorm]

It might've been second but I found Idol everywhere, especially because it had a dance challenge, so that boosted the popularity, also It's Yoasobi so that by itself was also a factor.

After one piece came lots of good anime came out also and just like one piece prologue that's the start of golden age of anime

[@ForsakenLogitek]

No, you dont need to watch Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood dubbed, subbed is amazing as always.

[@m.z.2466]

how can you even experience the openings if you talk the whole time

[@nunnallywalker2827]

Multitasking? Just because she talks over something or doesn't talk about something that's happening on screen doesn't mean she's not paying attention to it. I get why you'd think that tho

[@laurainathunderstorm]

While using headphones it'd be pretty hard to not focus on the music as well as the talking.

[@Immortalheavens]

Hunter x hunter reaction to the different openings will be cool

[@UltimateGamerCC]

actually Western Animation began all the way back in the 20s with Steamboat Willie, then Anime followed via Short Films in 1917, then Snow White becoming the first ever Fully Animated Movie in the 1930s, following with Cartoons on TV starting the same decade. the first Anime on TV wouldnt air until the 1960s, it's interesting how Cartoons started so much sooner than Anime did, almost that of a generation apart.

[@carlosochoa9686]

The first TV aired anime was in the 60s, but anime is way older than that

[@UltimateGamerCC]

@@carlosochoa9686 yes i stated thus in my comment, as i said though, it was surprising to find out that Cartoons would make it to TV almost 30 years before Anime would first premiere on TV.

[@laurainathunderstorm]

Something that idk if it's a typo or not, but you say started in the 20s and then was followed by something in 1917... And that doesn't add up.
