Whoever did this list, either was born yesterday or started watching anime yesterday. Pretty much everything is what's popular now. Where's the 2000s animes? 90s? 80s? Saint Seiya? Hokuto no Ken? Gundam?

[@_Thrackerzod]

Agreed, there's so many anime shows with great music that could have been on this list. Pokemon obviously had a super popular theme song, and what about Dirty Pair, Urusei Yatsura, even some of the more modern shows like K-On? A most popular anime songs of all time list without Moonlight Densetsu or Speed Racer? Come on... 😆

[@DracolegacyOfficial]

At the start they stated that this is based on what is popular (which insinuates right now), so yes a bunch of the older stuff won't be there.

[@thelastowlbear8110]

I get the impression KZbin views are a major determinant for this list, giving anything released or still running post-2010 a major advantage between both contemporary clicks and just the explosion of the popularity of the medium. No matter how many times I listed to Moonlight Densetsu, Give a Reason or MASK on janky cassette tape recordings on the school bus or later stuff like 'Till the End, Forces, Blurry Eyes or Driver's High on mp3s those don't translate into a single click.

[@niunia19991]

I'm not sure about general popularity but for AoT fans I think Shinzo wo Sasageyo is the ultimate hymn, although when the anime came out for the first time I imagine that opening must have hit unbelievably hard. I's also argue Naruto because Blue Bird is more memorable for me but again, I don't know how the general popularity of the song stands. For me it's more originally sounding than Shilluete. And I gotta say one more thing - there's no more popular song than Deja Vu, let's be honest.

[@sam-ff8fk]

right with you there. I was really expecting Shinzo wo Sasageyo there.

[@Bysmerian]

I am an old, and mostly drifted out of the anime scene years ago. But if I were assembling a list of my personal favorites--not the most popular, obviously, just my faves: Yakusoku wa Iranai (Vision of Escaflowne OP) Blue (Cowboy Bebop OST) Cruel Angel's Thesis (Evangelion OP) Sound Life (Trigun OST) Tokimeki na Doukasen (Fushigi Yuugi ED theme, although the OP is also up there) Virtual Star Embryology (Revolutionary Girl Utena ED 2, although again the OP was also excellent) I might be able to go on, but then it would start getting to "do I really think this is an amazing song that slaps, or is it just a decent song attached to one of my favorite anime I get super nostalgic about?" Because I'm pretty sure at least some of the above already qualify there

@@LordDragox412 I've never seen Slayers. But Naruto's Fighting Dreamers is such a pillar in the global spread of anime during the pre-streaming era.

[@siyoungrho357]

One of the prime reasons why Unravel hits so hard is that it's so deeply tied with the narrative of episode one. Kaneki wakes up after a near death experience only to realize that he can't consume human food. While barfing out whatever he consumes the lyrics "Oshiete yo Oshiete yo kono shikumi wo" which translates to "tell me, tell me the ways of this life" starts to emerge in the background. The incorporation of this song perfectly encapsulated the desperation that Kanakei was feeling further cementing the first episode of Tokyo Ghoul as one of the best first episodes of all time. I guess this is why that this song is so beloved and iconic

[@Mangasoccerenjoyer6475]

Definitely is not why it is so popular, but nice observation

The Your Name dub songs were fucking fantastic since the singer speaks really good english

[@nightslayer6951]

For Bleach my favorite opening/ending themes are Shojo S, Anima Rossa, chAngE, and Stay Beautiful I still can't get enough of Cowby Bebop The Real Folk Blues

[@klop4228]

Steins;Gate sadly appears to be forgotten more and more, but both the OP and ED are masterpieces

[@JerryDerGlatzkopf]

for me, Cha-la is top 3. could be just nostalgia but this is one of the best. and tokyo ghoul is unparalleled for me. it hits me everytime i hear it. this opening song just hits different then any other for me.

[@mrtalsmat4850]

Yea i totally agree, it's one of the most iconic if not the most iconic opening

[@pechfeder]

I totally miss "I am" from Inu Yasha in this list, because this song is one of the best Anime OP-Songs worldwide. That also goes for "Butterfly" from Digimon. If you play that song, every Animefan know it and will sing it. And there are also some very good Openings from Detective Conan.

[@denusklausen3685]

It cannot be understated just how perfect Unravel is for Tokyo Ghoul. If there is anything that people who disliked the anime can agree on is that the OST was given complete justice. The fact that Sui Ishida and TK had met beforehand and that the latter had bought up all the volumes of the manga in rapid succession in anticipation of the track just goes to show why it seems to fit the world so beautifully. Ishida is also the one who picked out the bands for most of the other songs in the show.

[@Mr.Calebanimates]

How is chainsaw man's opening song not popular enough?

[@TLFitness52]

It's good but I really can't think of an OP that it'd replace on this list

[@ayoidek6571]

It’s good but it isn’t as iconic/ well-known as these openings

[@shurakun9978]

Recently bias

[@sourasishdutta4126]

​@@TLFitness52 this video is not good. How was not dan dan here and there are more good intro in the bottom tier. Trah video.

[@sourasishdutta4126]

​@@ayoidek6571 you saying dan dan isn't iconic?

[@stijnjanssens571]

ima be honnest and say that (at least for me) the second OP of ranking of kings "naked king" by vaundy also deserves a spot here, idk why but it really hits me in the feels every time and arifureta's seacond ED is also just a banger (the song, animation isn't that great)

[@lg12gaming86]

Akeboshi - Lisa, demon slayer mugen train Rewrite - Asian kung fu generation, full metal alchemist Mukanjyo (defined) survive said the prophet, Vinland saga Hitamuki- super beaver, my hero Some of my favourite opening. Should have made the list

[@eddaayuste5439]

I definitely agree with rewrite and mukanjyo. Seriously though, all Vinland saga ost should be on this list, I think watch mojo is loosing it's mojo.😅😅 Some considerable contenders should be fire by queen bee, uverworlds core pride, brave shines aimer, like flames from slime tensei and rolling Star of bleach..

[@saiyanraoh5109]

Cha La head cha la, Tank and Cruel Angel thesis is number one and two and three and it’s not even close. Dat old school showing how it’s done.

[@Glace_cakes]

Excuse me? No moonlight densetsu?

[@miguellopes7627]

Honestly every song from FMAB, Overlord and Jojo could be on this list

[@fullmetal_.alchemist]

Yeah every song from FMA ✨

[@lexuz7407]

Lapis Philosophorum.... Really love that piece

[@mrmihawkguy727]

My favorite one for my opinion is Parasyte's opening, it's a banger, great song and great visuals

[@ellesrandomclips]

Unravel is the best thing that ever happened to Tokyo Ghoul. I get goosebumps everytime I hear it.

[@gamingrequiem4521]

Same 😢

[@Nick55ADTR]

I just started it today and the opener is amazing haven’t skipped it yet and watched 8 episodes so far haha it’s so good.

[@gamingrequiem4521]

@@Nick55ADTR nice 👌, you won't regret it

[@ellesrandomclips]

@@Nick55ADTR Season 1 is great but it's a downwards spiral with seasons 3 leaving a bad taste. At least, for me. If you like listening to Anime music, I'll recommend my top 3 most played. Unravel - TK Mukanjyo - Survive said the poet Kitakaze - Six Lounge

[@AffectionateMaggot]

Literally the only good thing about Tokyo Ghoul was the picking of "Unravel" as the opening. The anime was and is just dogshit.

[@zackattack3867]

even though it's dubbed, I love Rock the Dragon from DBZ

[@fadeT0grey010]

We're gonna need a part 2 of this list, because One-Third True Feelings and Heart of Sword say hi.

[@DangerDuck83]

Also, Rewrite by Asian Kung-Fu Generation is amazing as one of the opening songs for OG FMA!

[@OkieAllDay]

Literally EVERY song (all ten) from Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is top notch!!

[@casualblackbrowser]

Bling Bang-Bang Born should definitely be in the part 2 of this.

[@grayshigami6797]

Idol from Oshi no Ko has gained over 100M views despite being released less than a month ago

[@WaterDog1502]

I still think Ready Steady Go is the best FMA opening. I like Again but its not even the best in Brotherhood

[@Jippohippo]

I do not beleive that Silhouette outdid every other Naruto opening. There is no way.

[@millionzart2545]

naruto prob has the most memorable anime songs out there but silhouette and haruka kanata are the ones that comes to mind first when i think of naruto songs. my personal favorite was flow - sign

[@alex_ramjiawan]

It did.

[@YoungLiam74]

sign is leagues better. silhouette is top 5 tho

[@pedromartins272]

there is no way Silhoette is more popular than Blue bird

[@alex_ramjiawan]

@@pedromartins272 It is. Check the numbers.

[@Destroyanor]

I do love all these ops. But they should include Oshi no ko op ik it just came out a month ago and still isn’t finished. But it deserves all the hype it’s been getting. The actual song and dark and sad lyrics. Make it unskippable

[@LeMrAlpaca]

It literally also has more than 100 million views already, also the beastars op has more than 200 million

[@BlekDimon]

It's not based on views from youtube, if it would have been, they would never skip songs like Onegai Muscle, opening of Beastars or the most viewed anime song on youtube with 550mln views from a movie Fireworks.

[@ekaprasetiya3328]

OPM - The Hero really hits different after meteor incident, just like Naruto Shippuden - Sign after the death of Jiraiya, or Your Lie in April - Kirameki after seeing Arima reading the letter from Kaori.

[@nashdiy8570]

I’m sorry but including Your Name isn’t fair as anime movies could be a whole list on its own. Belle’s music slapped.😅 Also Rewrite from the original FMA anime should have been here too. Openings 3 and 4 were both amazing.
