That's a rare S-grade item right here. An anime video by Joey
S-tier thumbnail as well
Joey doing anime content? No way
This is kinda getting old.
Yeah wtf
@@C.Q.U yeah I know
Gotta do at least one a year to keep the "The Anime Man" IP rights
You're just old... @@sirrjean1553
Are you the anime man by any chance
No, they’re 2 different people. They look alike, but I can promise you they are not the same people.
Same goes with one of the hosts of the podcast trash taste. The anime man and Joey Bizinger are not the same. Just 3 dudes that look alike.
He does kinda look like him
Nahh the anime dude
Is he perhaps joey the manga lad?
he kinda looks like Dr. Jelly
Are you the anime man because you do anime content?
Or do you do anime content because you're the anime man?
It’s definitely the second one these days
Joey: nah I'll read manga
No isn't this is Josh the Anime Dude?
No its Josh the manga lad
TheAnimeMan doing Anime content?!
This is on the same level as the Pope talking shi about Aliens.
No. Youre not old.
I was born in 1966.
Still love anime. I watch these shows to find ones i missed that i want to see
I was going to point out that I’m nine years older than him being born in 1985.
@@Goleon whippersnapper 😆😆👍
Bro is as old as Ultraman
I'm as old as Gundam, you beat me by 13 years
No one is old until they have grandchildren. Period.
When Joey said there is a certain generation of people that looks back fondly at the mid-2000's as the golden age of anime, he's not joking. Some of us never left this period.
as someone who is currently in his late 20s I fully agree with the statement
Based on our current anime industry, I sadly have to agree.
As Joey once said in another video: "Can't we just take it back to the early 2000s, where we had like 10 shows a season that were all descent(or at least good?)"
I started watching anime in the mid 2010s and even I think the mid to late 2000s was the golden age of anime. Sh!t was great back then. Not every anime was a rip-off power fantasy of this one popular anime.
@@RKNancy I'm so glad you agree! I've been getting a lot of flack for not liking new anime, but the fact is, most of them are just carbon copies of better shows! Granted not all new anime are bad, but my point stands!
@@nine_tails137 That's just cap. There weren't 10 decent shows per season in the 2000s. If we are talking generally then yes, today it's a mix bag of amazing shows, a lot of decent shows and a lot of garbage. But in absolutes we get more decent shows today than in the mid 2000s.
yeah...Joey's never beating the 'hates anything popular' allegations
with that chainsawman opening take, I will agree
I mean he loved bebops and evangelion openings 🤷♂️
It's interesting that anime OPs started with commissioned songs for the shows that tied in to them, but then has since moved away to licensing popular songs. And now, last year, the most popular anime OP was "Idol" by Yoasobi... which was very clearly made for the show
9:19 "Yes, I know I'm old..."
*Dies in 1988*
You rock
Right there with you I'm January of 88'
yikes
lmfao my thought exactly.. '88 here too.
I was born in the 82, it hurts my soul
I may be nostalgic but I think Joey is at his best when he makes anime content
not surprising he’s good at talking about what he knows best
I don’t want this to come off rude to Joey or whatever
But yeh, peoples content is better when they stick to what they know about, alternatively known as staying in your lane and not speaking on stuff you know nothing about. But people get upset at that wording 😂
As much as I love Noragami’s op for 2015. Death Parade was robbed. That op was a certified bop
Totally agree, wish more people gave death parade the love it deserves
100% agree, that opening was a banger
Now that you mentioned it.
Yeah. Flyer by Bradio is a banger.
I agree but i think Noragami's song got memeified which boosted its popularity. They are both great songs tho i think if they were on equal grounds it would have been a close fight
Take my like for this comment sir
"I fucking hate this song"
fair enough. everyone has a particular taste. i can take that.
"i am not a fan of yoasobi's music"
opinion discarded.
Thank you! Yoasobi is so good!
He had me in the first half not gonna lie, cuz I like Yoasobi songs, Like Yoru ni Kakeru and Kaibutsu, but not really a fan of the Oshi no Ko OP by them, but the second half of his statement made me question whether he tried non-anime songs of the artist or not. Yes I know Kaibutsu is Beastar's S2 openning. It was supposed to be a general statement, cuz their albums are pretty good.
but yeah that's my 3 cents
Ngl i had the same issue as well, despite i like lisa's song
She does cover lot of anime OP&ED
Maybe yoasobi just had too high pitch voice, and her covering almost every anime each seasons, make them overrated af, that's why ppl just tired with it 🙃
well, me personally, I don't care if a song/artist is popular or not. If I think it sounds good, I like it's as simple as that.
Yaosabi other songs are good(anime and non anime)
Oshi no ko opening is just not good imo
Joey's reaction to "Idol" is what I expected from metal music fans but they mostly enjoyed it LMAO
Fuck YES dude, I'm hardcore metal music fan, but I'm SO enjoying by listening IDOL.
The song is so shit ngl 😂
@@mask9269well the internet things you're wrong so..
Ya you are a crackhead. *Insert random very personal and offensive insult tailored specifically towards you and your life experiences* @mask9269
Saint Seiya OP 1 is one of the best OP songs of all time, and the visuals are pretty good too. Should be way more popular than it is.
Seriously Pegasus fantasy is just such a great opener for an anime it’s such a banger and I flipping love it
Saint Seiya forever!!!!!
It IS massive in Latin America
Personally I prefer the second opening more but the first op is amazing
Very popular in Latin America
Angel Beats' opening isn't my favorite opening, but it's the one that makes me the most emotional
So true, it has so much heart in it
That opening and Clannad After Story OP are my 2 favourite OPs for that reason (Also my 2 favourite anime), Lia's voice with that composer just is perfection, you can feel every bit of emotion put into them almost as much as the anime themselves.
Love Lia's trance stuff like Tori no Uta as well
Lia just hit different. Her voice and range always make the song better.
I still rmb it being played everywherre. It was definitely the hit song of 2010
1:26 For mecha fan, Grendizer U will be release in this July.
6:21 Surprisingly, at lot of mecha anime in the early 80s are use as promotional platform for debuting new singer because of Macross influence. For example, the song at the time stamp is Hiroko Moriguchi's debut song. Some people might know her as singer for 1st One Punch Man Ending theme.
My father will be so happy to know there is a new anime for Grendizer, the Arabic dub of the 70's show is legendary here.
You can tell this is an old recording when he said he likes the path that oshi no ko is taking 😂
Tori no Uta was not a surprise. It was unescapable back then and still sounds amazing until now.
15:07 yeah there is a joke in JP anime fandom saying this op should be our national anthem
Anison artists are still commissioned for OP and ED. Sure there's more general artists involved now, but songs created especially for anime are definitely still out there.
I'd say most of the theme songs are still made specifically for the shows, even if the artists are generally not associated with anison. Often times those artists would say in interviews or post on their social media accounts about the songs being specifically commissioned by the anime staff, and the artists themselves are provided with some production materials
At the very least, almost all new anime get new music, whether or not it was made FOR the show, it’s a new song that usually releases at the same time as the show
3:33 the original 1981 Urusei Yatsura My favorite anime show ❤ Fumi hirano as Lum and TOSHIO FURUKAWA Darling aka Ataru they are perfect together they show us why we the fan's love Lum and Her Darling aka Ataru in
Urusei Yatsura ❤😊
Random news reporter doing anime video LETS GOOO
The most popular and powerfully weapon in every anime and strong one was "Doraemon Pocket". And 1970 anime "mojacko" was my first anime ever. I was born in December 15 1994.
T.M Revolution is such an amazing band, and has openings for such good shit
Gundam Seed, Sengoku Basara, Kakumeiki Valvrave, Soul Eater...
Edit: Btw I made translations for some of his songs, in case y'all wanna check out :)
Rurouni Kenshin is the one I usually think of, lol
I thought TM Revolution was one guy and Abingdon Boys School was his band.
@@matijamaksan4344 you are correct
if you like T.M revolution, just look up songs by Takanori Nishikawa. T.M Revo is pretty much just him.
@@ghoulchan7525 I'm aware of that, I'm a bit too much into Nishikawa's work every since I got to know of his existence, probably listened to most of the songs he has made so far, even the ones from Luis-Mary era
Mentioned only TMR because it's the only one that showed up in the video and it's by far the most popular
Joey reacting to anime op. Tell me I’m dreaming?
Wake up babe, new Joey anime video.
There's absolutely not way Naruto Silhouette by KANA-BOON did not make this list, it's Naruto's anthem and has 291 million views on youtube which is the most I've ever seen a Japanese song.
Indeed
It's sorta understandable since it released the same year as TK's unravel did but yeah lol
Agree, I've noticed there's no JoJo op. golden wind was really popular
I think Unravel was released in the same year and to be honest unravel is just better, it just is
Fighting dreamers is better
Edit: so is yura yura
Now we need the most popular anime endings of each year
We need more this man
What if he reacted to our (The fans) top openings and ending /osts songs from Anime?
Some I can think of:
Samurai Hearts (Gintama ed), Memories (One piece ed), Uso (FMAB ed), Shiki no uta (Samurai Champloo ed), Daisy (Kyoukai no Kanata ed), Orange (Shigatsu wa kimi no uso ed), Sugar song to bitter step (Kekkai Sensen ed), Los los los (Youjo senji ed), Akeboshi (Naruto ed), Secret Base (Anohana), Drown (Vinland Saga ed), Memoria (Fate/Zero ed), Kaze ga Fuku Machi (BSD s2 ed), Refrain (After the Rain ed), (Dango Daikazoku (Clannad ed), Sayuri's song (Erased ed)..
@@irvancrocs1753 The only ones I can think of right now are kudafukuron (Platinum End) and Memento (Re Zero). I personally think kudafukuron is the best ending ever, I cannot find an ending better than this
@@HerobeansThe only ones I can think of is Roundabout (JoJo's Part 1 & 2), Fukahi (Record of Ragnarok), Life is like a Boat (Bleach), and Homework Never Ends (Yu Yu Hakusho).
Speaking of Yu Yu Hakusho, where the hell was Smile Bomb?!
Jumping onto the subject of Anime Openings that's made for their shows specifically, funny enough, Fairy Tail was one of the last few (but more then likely the last) to do it with their Opening #14, Fairy Tail ~Yakusoku no Hi~ which was made in 2013.
Digimon S1 Butter-Fly by Wada Kouji deserved to be on the list!!!
I also prefer Digimon Adventure OP over One Piece OP1.
Yeah but too many popular shows came out in 1999 so I'm not surprised that One Piece won out in whatever metric this video used.
meanwhile the most popular Gundam openings in America is Gundam Wing's "Just Communication" by Two-Mix for the 1st opening and "Rhythm Emotion" also by Two-Mix for the 2nd opening.
I was JUST thinking about those. I used to listen to those over and over
Wing probably would've been on here if 1995 wasn't the year Evangelion released. Nothing was going to beat Cruel Angel's Thesis for most popular OP.
For a guy who doesn’t like Naruto you’re pretty educated on the show. 😂
Nahh, Noragami's amazing what are you on about
Joey you need to do more of these dude i just love when you talk about anime openings
@Joey Bizinger
ruclips.net/video/sSLDKhuKLeY/видео.htmlsi=FNe8nv5_i1Dz07QX
I was born in 2000's but I watched a lot of 70's , 80's And so on as a kid.
Our TV used to broadcast shows from my parents childhood so I have watched a lot of them
NANI!?! Joey giving respects to Dragon Ball Z!?!?
It’s cause Toriyama died
Really cool anime video it's nice to see you branch out into new genres and experiment with your content
LMFAO
bro back with the hot takes 💀
Bro hates everything 😂
We're coming for you Joey (us Noragami fans)
I really need to watch Captain Harlock. The MC looks goofy and badass at the same time.
you should it's a classic. it is a little dated in places however. but it is a ride.
@@ghoulchan7525 I've seen the mediocre animation of Gundam 0079, I can handle it
@@thomasffrench3639 i meant in a few places other than the animation. Like there's a few moments i thought it didn't age too well concept wise or a remark a character makes. Other parts are relevant even today however.
Grendizer was the successor of Mazinger Z in the Go Nagai Universe of Mecha and one of the first, insanely popular in europe and the middle east in the 80s, thats what brought me to anime. I like to sing the opening while I shower and on karaoke nights, also really looking forward to Grendizer U coming really soon
2:55 thats not true?
I mean that does happen but most anime songs are commissioned by the studio/producers making the anime to be made for the anime itself
I think what joey meant to say is anime songs these days are not just an anime opening but also actual songs that you can listen to without any context or relation to the anime itself
It is, but it wasn't fully explained. In the 70s all the way to the 90s singing for Anime shows was seen with negative connotations for your career as an artist, so for the most part mainstream singers stayed away from the genre. It wasn't until the 90s that some mainstream bands stsrted to get involved, mostly because the record labels were owned by the same parent companies that were sponsoring the Anime series. After that it became more common for mainstream artist to be involved with the genre as Joey mentioned
This is why in the 70s to the 90s you see so many songs sang by only Anisong singers that didnt went beyond the genre for their entire careers. Which you still have Anisong only singers I'm today's world as well, but is not the only artist that are singing every op/ed in existence.
@@CatClan yeah i get all of that
But what joey was talking about is anime taking songs that have been released by artists and using it as an opening or ending. This doesnt happen very often and even when it does it happens in the form of covers.
For example, all of takagi-san's endings are covers of songs from other artists. Recently, we had hananoi-kun who got the artist to sing a japanese version of her song for their ending
There is also yofukashi no uta, but that one is a special case where the manga in itself was inspired by the song
Anisongs, at least in recent years which i think takes up a majority of anime at this point, are commissioned specifically for the show
the noragami anime is brilliant.the manga is incredible and the ops are so so good. plus a great both sub and dub cast
80s Gundam has some good openings. It has some of my favorite openings ever.
As much hate as SEED gets, to me it has the most iconic Gundam opening
@@Edino_Chattino I actually just straight up like that show. It’s better than half the AU shows even if it’s not as good as UC. Although for transparency, I did not watch Destiny
@@Edino_Chattino I liked the intro songs in SEED (Destiny included), but 8-9 year old me was mentally scarred by all those naked people in the OPs and since I either just listen to the songs with my eyes closed or skip intros entirely if given the chance. 🤣
@@Wolfedge75 Man, childhood fear of nudity was sort of a thing for me too. Really strange.
@@thomasffrench3639
With some exceptions, the first 27 episodes of Destiny are actually pretty good. If it didn't fall apart later it could've genuinely been one of the best Gundam series. Heck, even when the show fell off significantly, I still enjoyed scenes following Athrun and the crew of the Minerva. The problem is that when the Archangel crew is on screen, the writing takes a complete nosedive.
I think anime songs today are still made specifically for the anime, the only difference is that labels realize they can also sell the songs as singles so they write the lyrics with a subtle reference to the anime. Anisong labels also exist now unlike before. These labels that work tightly with anime productions such as Sony (certain labels under Sony like Sacra Music), Pony Canyon, Kadokawa (idk the name of the label 😅) etc.Like, Creepy Nuts is already a popular rapper but he still does anisong... it's not just bc he is popular, he also just happened to be under Sony. 👍
I'm just here for correcting stuffs a bit. Creepy Nuts is a Hip-Hop band with a DJ (DJ Matsunaga) and the rapper R-Shitei. (their other stuffs are amazing as heck).
I had no idea that CAT’S EYE by Anri was an anime OP. The album it’s on, “Timely!!”, is one of the best city pop albums of all time.
Hey, I was surprised about your takes on Hellsing old series opening (it was huge and everyone loves it and it's so cool too) and Aimer's Zankyou Sanka. I've found the Aimer's song and her MV first and instantly fell in love with the song and PV and even used it for my own game video, so touching and cool it was. And after found out that it's an opening for the KnY and enjoyed it there too. Great song. Also Chainsaw man opening is a really cool one too and it perfectly matches the anime's tone and director's work and sense of humour there. It's kinda interesting how I agree with you on almost all other takes but then these three really shocked me xD Yoasobi's song on the other hand is definitely not everyone's cup of tea so it's not a hot take, wasn't surprised, I kinda like it though.
There’s so many I’m shocked didn’t make it in there, like ANY Initial D opening, particularly Blazin’ Beat(personal bias), or YuGiOh!. Also super surprised to not see either of the Death Note openings, or the original FMA ops cause those were extremely popular when it was originally airing. Like Joey, I really wonder about the metric that was being used to measure. If it was by popularity or views, or even cultural impact, you’d expect to see History Maker from Yuri! ON ICE for 2016(not saying it would be right, or even my opinion, just it’s what I’d expect and not be surprised by), for example. I’m really surprised I didn’t see more sports anime openings, because whether you love or hate them, the songs and bands/musicians are usually awesome, and the visuals are also usually really well done with the music. I enjoy a lot of sports based anime, from Prince of Tennis and Slam Dunk, to Free!, Haikyu, and Kuroko no Basket. What is even more, jarring, is the lack of musical anime inclusion. When it comes down to it, whatever the “best anime openings” are on any scale is always an opinion. But this list really did seem kind of all over the place, as far as what metric it was trying to use. I’d be interested to know what this same list would look like if Joey curated it, himself.
I can understand if you're not a fan of Idol by Yoasobi, I think its pretty overrated, but not a fan of Yoasobi music??! What? WHAT?!
Yeah, that’s wild. Racing into the night is a fucking awesome song!
OG sailor moon is my first anime I ever saw, saw it on Toonami
I don't know if you heard but they just announced yesterday that the 90s Sailor Moon is coming back to Toonami starting May 31st around 5 p.m. every Friday but they are going to use the Viz dub which is the uncensored version that is closest to the original.
@@helarymedina3139 that's cool
IMO the op songs got more annoying to you because as the years have gone by anime has become more popular and is heard more often on social media I.e. they’re played to death.
Not seeing One Punch Man for 2015 best opening is wild to me
Why the fuck do you keep calling Lisa Lia during the angel beats opening?
Are sure about that? 😏
Lisa did cover the song, but not the opening bruh
Oashi no Ko slander is crazy
Yeah the fact that Joey hates Yoasobi's music
@@marcuszeus5552probably because he's more into rock than jpop, but YOASABI slaps in my opinion
@@Savillozz While I enjoy a lot of YOASOBI's music I think some of their songs can sound too samey. Idol is the only song I've heard from them that legitimately sounds bad. The only parts of it that aren't by the numbers are just extremely obnoxius and tacky. They might as well just have released one of their previous songs with air horns layered over it.
You mean Incest no Ko
@@AdBlock-xl3tt wtf are you talking about? Sound bad? People rly think hating popular make them better.
"Noragami was ok"
No... you are not a real 夜ト様の信者 so you just don't understand 😇ww
(Also where is 微笑みの爆弾 ;___; )
the fact that Idol is so annoying to people is exactly why I love it so much and I have no idea why
i can understand not liking idol, but not liking yoasobi at all is wild
Cause they are idiots. It's a great song.
@@LukaTim I can't stand Idol (their songs for Beastars season 2 were miles better than Oshi no Ko) whatsoever, but I personally love YOASOBI's music, Blue being one of my top favorite songs from them.
it's not yoasobi's best song so it is annoying that it gets more popularity than her other songs
@@LukaTim being a yoasobi fan is like someone telling you they love imagine dragons
No I will not elaborate
21:45 ... UHm.... That will age you.... How about Blood+ Opening 3 "Colors of the Heart"? No?
Wow Joey does anime content??!!??!
So the title doesn't make it obvious, but: this is the opening _from that year_ which is the most popular *now.* Obviously it would be hard to rank the most popular opening _at the time,_ so they just go off of like streams or youtube views.
No sound bro
Copyright bro
@@aeternus2036 Well reacting to something we can't hear is kinda dull
Dude play safe
Doesn't matter how good you cover the voices, some of them might slipped, bad things happened, and a redflag for a youtuber 😗
It happens to tokusatsu youtuber few months ago, took lot of efforts and stressful days until it settled
Nice to see Moonlight Destiny make the list lol.
My fav anime opening of all time is the first Op to When Seagulls Cry. Anime is HORRIBLE, but that opening is EPIC.
Other openings I love are Fushigi Yuugi's Opening, Magic Knight Rayearth's 2nd Season 2nd Opening, Danganronpa's Opening, and Seikon No Qwaser's 2nd opening.
And while this ISN'T an opening to an anime, I just want to mention my fav video game opening because looking at it, you'd think it would be an anime lol. I bought this game on a whim because it was on sale at the gameplay from the box description looked like something I enjoyed and now it's one of my fav games haha. It's Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis's opening.
Guess I am old to say one group...I am shocked that they did not add, which was huge in the 2000's. Janne da arc. Same as TM Revolution, Megumi Hayabarashi (the voice actor made music too, Like Shaman TV opening), and others. Just gonna say, the 2000's were the year most idols grew and even had a change too. The industry was wild.
Yeah, there was so many really popular shows that I guess I was surprised not to see on here. Slayers, Ranma 1/2, Tenchi Muyo, Rurouni Kenshin, Haruhi Suzumiya, Azumanga Daioh, Samurai Champloo, Gurren Lagann, Death Note... So many more, lol. I guess the pitfall of only one per year when so many come out in each. Also possible that their openings just weren't as possible as the show was. I just used to listen to a lot of them over and over again 😅
Ngl I'm surprised the blue exorcist openings weren't on here, I suppose it came out in 2011 and had hunter x hunter to fight with but they're such good songs
Joey: Haruka Kanata and Blue Bird are my favorite Naruto openings.
Also Joey: My favorite Naruto Shippuden opening, is Hero's come back
Noticed that too.
There are so many good songs from Naruto, it's hard to say which one someone likes, Joey doesn't make scripts for his videos, so he says what he genuinely feels
Hottest take of the year: Joey finding YOASOBI annoying af.
Sir, how dare you.
I think he just get tired of it because it like everywhere in japan
Very rare anime video Joey has blessed us
24:14 I'll get crucified along with you mate, I think also think that IDOL is annoying and also the Frieren OP because also have a choir part which they never did in any songs before IDOL was release... I prefer their older style like the one they used on Yoru ni Kakeru, Tokyo City Ghost or Ano Yume wo Nazotte
24:40 I tell you why Joey
You are an hipster and this is the contrarian opinion
I agree with what you said about Chainsaw Man. Kick Back is a good song. Not fitting to be the OP of the show though. I still say the first ED, Chainsaw Blood by Vaundy, should've been the OP. As for Oshi no Ko, I love Idol. Fantastic OP so can't say I agree with you on it being annoying/bad. But the ED is better. Mephisto by Queen Bee is so slept on.
Last thing I want to add, again, agree with you saying that a show's popularity explodes an OP's standing in these rankings even if they're not the best OP of that year. This year for example, Dangers in my Heart season 2's OP was amazing. Currently airing, Mysterious Disapperances is another one (Say what you will about the show, I know it has a 6.5 rating on Anilist, but the OP is so good). But that's just kind of how anime is. The majority of the time, the actual best of whatever category you want to look at are usually buried because they didn't hit mainstream appeal. And some people may argue that if it hits mainstream appeal, that means it was liked by most people and therefore deserve to be called the best, I think that's just a logical fallacy. Something can be objectively a masterpiece or incredible but just not be for everyone.
Plz react to anime outro’s next!
Inuyasha always had the best music at the end of the show & im sure there’s other anime in the same boat
three words - Do As Infinity
It's okay Joey if you don't like Idol, I got your back. 😂😂😂 I get why it's popular... but yeah... I think Yoasobi is just too popular at this point that any song they make will become popular. We all just have different tastes in music. Personally speaking, I can't listen to Idol the way I listen to other anisongs casually. Joey's take is kind of ironic though, bc Idol is obviously written specifically for Oshi no Ko. 😅 They didn't even shy away on the lyrics and title. 😅
Aligned with a lot of your takes, but I hard disagree with the chainsaw man op just being ok, for me it is in the top 3 ops in this list.
For me, too. I love that OP! It’s pretty high on my best of all time mental ranking. Idk where I’m gonna put it, but I gotta rethink my list and start including some of the newer openings. It’s gotta at least be top 25 if not top 5 or 10.
Too bad series like Gintama and Golden Kamuy were grossing overshadowed; even though most of their tracks are practically flawless.
12:00 - I will never forget how I first started reading OP and how I first heard this song.
I started reading one piece to replace the emepty feeling I had after finishing Naruto manga. Since I wasn't involved in the anime community, I genuinely hadn't heard about it, and I literally just picked it up cause the vibe that the cover was giving off was perfect (idk if it was the cover for the first volume or a different one - but the first volume cover and it's remake after the time skip are still my faves).
I still remember being completely and utterly enchanted by the first page of chapter 1, Gold Roger's execution. And falling heads over heels for the manga after finishing chapter 1. It just spoke to me, heart to heart. Naturally, as every arc topped the previous one for literally 800 something chapters, I was thinking all the while, "man I think I found an underground gem, this is definitely my personal favorite unpopular show". Lol.
One day, as I was cleaning my house while listening to music, youtube randomly started playing We Are! - and you guys gotta remember that in the full version of the song, there's no "wealth fame power" speech - it's just music for like 30 something seconds for the start. And in those 30 second, having never ever seen the anime, and before getting to the part where they say the title in the lyrics, I just FELT it. I just KNEW this was the One Piece opening. The vibe was so strong that despite the incredible variety of possible songs that can exist - I was just thinking "isn't this One Piece? It has to be right?"
Both the Japanese and English (not the rap - altho that's got its own charm) versions of this song are incredible, the vibe, the lyrics, what's going on on the screen - everything gave off the PERFECT one piece vibe that I got from reading. The English one is incredible btw if any of y'all haven't heard it!
To this day, I think this opening is the most fitting opening to a show I've ever seen, really encapsulating the energy and vibe. Not to mention it's a fuking banger. Man I love One Piece.
As always Joey pretending to know everything about anime to seem interesting. I would argue that majority of anime openings are still made specifically for the anime.
Imo for 2007 it should have been sorairo days, the OP of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
How is Creepy Nuts worse when you have Porno Graffti which is probably a worser band name. XD
Giving praise to Air, sure. Bagging on Noragami. Yeah Joey really doesn't watch anime. He must not have actually watched the last couple episodes of Air or his critical analysis skills aren't as good as I originally thought.
black clover op 10 not being top for 2020 is a scam by whoever made this video. black catcher is significantly better than jjk op1
"1994. Yes I know I'm old" Watching as a 1974 kid here. 🪦
Wait you watch anime?
You could tell he talked more about the show pre-2020 lmao
Everytime i see anyone watch this list, i wanna scream on how bias it was lol. I grew up watching anime from 70s and on. I tell you some of these animes stayed in Japan and never really was seen around the world. Gatchaman, speed racer, Macross-Robotech and others were so popular that Harmony and many companys were fighting for rights on exclusive toy sales and stuff. Remember Transformers or Go bots lol. Yall get the drift, they made movies over them today. Oh yeah Disny bought rights to Macross but still cant get few seasons cause someone doesnt wanna lose rights.
“I’m not a fan of yaosobi” loses respect for joe📉😔
“I like oshi no ko, the anime, manga, WHERE ITS GOING…” respect back up again📈😂
Not liking Yoasobi/dol? Yeah that's a hot take. It was overplayed though, but everything popular is.
You look a lot like the anime man
when i think of uverworld, i think of blood+. such an underrated anime and i WISH it was more easy to watch 😭
I think 水の星 へ 愛をこめて was licensed - It's originally a song written by an American songwriter Neil Sedaka but the original song was never actually released, the version sung by Moriguchi-san is actually a cover. Bandai don't own the rights to it and it meant after a certain period the song stopped being used in anything Zeta related anymore due to licensing.
If I remember correctly I read the guy got annoyed with them asking for permission to use it and told them to stop asking him. It's annoying because it's an absolutely amazing song as well and both the openings and the ending song (all covers of his songs) are some of the best songs in Gundam.
Yeah it was a Jew move on his part I think its actually 3 songs in total both OPs to Zeta and I think one ending I forget but on my bluray release they use an instrumental for the show as the OP instead
No Silhouette from Naruto Shippuden is a crime
here in Brazil Saint seya and dragon ball GT openings both were HUGE, everyone until today knows those song, just to be clear here in brazil those openings were dub
the only thing i take offense with joey is you calling yourself 'old'. lol. all the rest of you are kids. (born 1971)
For me, Zankyou Zanka is the best opening ever musically. I just love energetic high BPM pop songs, and this one is one of the best. Visually it's probably Chainsaw Man
I actually listened it for a few months without realizing it was demon slayers opening lol. its a good opening.
i think it's good but nowhere near my fav Aimer anime song or opening song in general
it is quite better than Gurenge tho(which is also good but hot take one of the worst Lisa anime songs)
@@motemo8413what’s yours? mine’s kataomoi
edit: or us( cause im a tk fan too)
Wts blud waddlin about? Most Anime op's nowadays are also made for the anime, picking a random song is kinda rare
Keep up the great work and videos Joey love the video
No Ranma 1/2, no Cutie Honey... I'm upsetti spaghetti.
One of the negative points of living in Germany is that before streaming services it took quite a while before an anime made it to us. But at the same time that had the positive effect that I got to see 80s anime like Lupin and Cat's eye (which I really loved) on TV, otherwise I might have never seen them^^
And wtf? DBZ came out in 89?! we didn't get it until 2001! Sailor Moon only took 3 years to arrive here xD
As for openings in general, Germany was always great, because we ignored the often stupid english openings and just used the japanese with tailored German lyrics
Except for Pokemon and Naruto (because of the distribution rights), because we thought: Oh yeah, let's make our own Naruto opening...
@@KiaraKitsune Believe it!
Okay okay okay. But come on. Tokyo Revenges season 1 OP was sooooo good!! Get outta here Demon Slayer 🙄
Tori no Uta is such an amazing song.
Joey I love you but I've never gasped hearing a hot take like yours on Oshi No Ko's opening. JJK is mid tho so we agree there lol
Bro said he loves where the Oshi No Ko manga's going 💀
Yup and he is goddam right
I mean in terms of being well written Oshi no ko definitely is. No doubt about it. I personally dropped the manga because I was getting bored and I felt that the quality of the writing wasnt hooking me enough anymore. BUT. Thats just me. Its still a solid 8 to 9 out of 10 series.
With the recent chapter, I think we (might) have made it out of the woods with how chaotic the last 20 or so chapters have been
Just dont make this type of content if you are not gonna put audio cuz of copyright, its completely pointless
