It's a very American thing or possibly English speaker- thing to dismiss foreign music...because most of the non-English speaking world have no problem listening to English songs...many don't understand it but they don't dismiss it...they may make a translated version of the song or make music in the same style inspired by it.
It's as though people seem to forget that all American media distributed overseas are considered "foreign". Then Americans get snobby at the thought of suffering through subtitles. 😅
Yeah i have noticed that i tend to listen and vibe more with music that i don't understand, and even knowing English, i don't even listen to the words really, it's the sound that the singing is doing and the song in general. You can hear how the words sounds good even if you don't understand. I always vibe more to the songs when i'm listening to Japanese/Korean+ other languages than in English or Finnish.
It's not really an anime opening but THAT scene in Castle in the sky by studio Ghibli of that magical, enormous castle with a tree growing on top just keep rising into the sky with the beautiful main theme playing, it was stuck in my head and remembering it gave me tears because for a long time I denied the fact I loved anime so much and to this day it holds a special place in my heart
Ima be real with you that video will be my last video lol I’m weird I always create like weird hidden narratives in things I do and I’ve always imagine that the day I stop this channel is with the last video being the outros video cause yanno first video being about opening last being about outros lol I’m annoying
I got recommended your 90’s anime aesthetics video and over the course of the last week or so I’ve been binging the Internet Pitstop back catalog of videos . Just wanted to say I’m really enjoying the content ( not just the anime stuff , I also enjoyed the graphics and pokemon videos ) . Hope to keep seeing your vids in my subscription feed
Samurai champloo's op is something i listen to daily, nujabes is something else man. I think the boondocks opening was also inspired by it as well. R.I.P nujabes
Anime endings are pretty beautiful too. Think Wind from Naruto with Akeboshi. Mehn, those flute and accent over speaking English reminds me of discovering Naruto in highschool and watching it with my siblings when we come home from school. I heard it again this year and I had to stop myself from crying cos... Damn it! Now I'm all emotional again.
Also pretty much anything from Do As Infinity, as featured on Inu Yasha and others...songs like Fukai Mori and Shinjustu no Uta. Beyond that, while it kinda seems as though distorted guitar is not genrally associated with beautiful sounds, but I think a lot of output by The Pillows from the late 90s to mid-00s, especially a lot of what was curated for the FLCL soundtrack, is alternative rock at its most beautiful, probably exceeding the like of Weezer and Smashing Pumpkins. Beautiful Morning with You, Hybrid Rainbow, Carnival, and Instant Music are just incredibly lush rock tunes.
Dude I‘m so happy you put in the Noragami Anime Opening. That was one of the first animes I watched and it‘s still my absolute favorite. Whenever I hear any of the openings I just wanna scream my lungs put cause my brain can’t process how great it is
I remember a lot of these openings, especially the 4Kids ones. I was in a Japanese language class 3 of the 4 years of high school. Thank you, Collins-Sensei.
Ok so it's not an opening but the end credits of Outlaw Star always had a big impact on me. The retro sci-fi artwork against the music which sounds like it should be attached to a fantasy series always put me in a super chill mood and to this day Hikaru Tanaka is one of my favorite artists.
Hiru no Tsuki is GOAT'd. Love that song to death. Always cool to see someone else that loves it too. Gives me a crazy somber but nostalgic feeling whenever I hear it
I was obsessed with that Ending song! I just didn’t understand how music and artwork could come together to make something so breathtaking and beautiful. It introduced me to Akino Arai and in a longtime fan now.
One Piece the first OP, alone the legendary words from Gol D. Roger and then the soundtrack damn this takes me back, it was my first anime ever when I was 5 y old. Btw I'm from Germany and we had a absolute masterpiece Dub OP here. I guarantee you if you play this song here on a Convention everybody can sing it.
About the berserk opening, I've always felt the same way. from the first time I heard its off key guitars back when I had no idea what I was getting into by watching berserk, it always struck a cord with me and made me feel the exact things you described. Despite the engrish and the grasses, I've always thought this opening fit the series and guts as a character perfectly and I've never skipped it once even re-watching it now. When I saw that people actually hate on this OP and how much it gets memed on, I felt kinda dum for how much I love it lol. But it's great to see that someone else sees the same beauty in it that I do. Great video btw, all your content is absolute bangers. Found your channel like a week ago and I've been loving it, keep up the good work.
Loving your content dude, to me the appeal of 80s and 90s anime music is those infectious Melodies and sometimes half English choruses. When you see the visuals that go along with it, it just captures a moment of solitary coolness and it puts you right there in that moment when you listen to a particular track.
It’s not an opening, but the first ending of Inu-Yasha. I remember seeing it on late nights on adult swim when I was in my early elementary years. Something about the mood hit me so powerfully. The 3 main female characters, doing something that they do on a typical day. The backgrounds, the really lovely song playing in the background… the train Kagome is riding… it’s that specific moment that really gets me. I’m a young woman, living out her life figuring it all out, and I ride the train a lot. I like how it feels to be in a train. The fast yet very smooth inertia. I just keep moving forward. It kind of reminds me that I am alive and that I will be ok. The song itself is very catchy but it’s so smooth and just feels like it keeps going.
@@jimmyberry4451 yes!!! The Ferris wheel was lovely! Also the spider Lillies, autumn leaves, and snow. The color palette featuring a lot of reds, greens, purples, and earth tones is really beautiful.
Waking up early morning to the sound of an Inuyasha ED was magical. If I remember correctly they would always air two episodes so whenever I woke up to them I prayed one episode was ending so I could catch the second one starting.
The Bebop OP is also so important for me. It reminds me of when I also thought of growing up and not needing to study daily and how easy a job would be and now when I look back I am reminded of these best moments of that childhood when I had so much free time to do stuff I wanted, so many friends, and such a lovely daily routine. Its the perfect tune to remember the perfect time of your life.
I know this is a 2 year old video with 1,000 comments but if anyone could identify the ambient track that starts at 14:00 during the Paranoia Agent opening I would be stoked. I've heard this like 100 times and can't place it.
The biggest hypocritical moment i have experienced is people refuse to listen to Japanese music because "we don't understand the words" or "it's weird" then those same people will go listen to all of those popular spanish radio songs you see everywhere
@@altaidox thank you! Lol and nice catch I love adding background music and put a lot of time (admittedly a lil too much time lol) in picking the songs for it so it’s cool when ppl appreciate and notice that so thank you lol First Fable really was the best of the series in my opinion loved that game
I appreciated your analysis and appreciation of the berserk opening. Berserk is my favourite story ever. No other opening will ever hold as much emotion for me. I absolutely agree with how perfectly fitting it is in the show and for guts. Keep them grasses on struggler
Anime openings really gave me the vibes I need while doing my work or even motivation to do something. Childish as it may be but it works. Loved the video man. Happy I found you in this corner of the internet.
That Elfen Lied opening for shadows Lucy's entire arch. Just started re watching it and immediately I'm transported back to when I first watched the show.
The moment you mentioned the Evangelion's op I was like "Oh, finally, I was starting to get worried". But I had to pause the video to listen to the entirety of Jojo's op because... Jojo. So be right back, because I love this video so much. Edit: that's better. let's continue.
I've been a fan of your content for like a couple months now but the experience of watching this video was so ethereal. You've been goated from the jump bro I woke up at 11pm after a post-school like 6+ hour nap and after dragging myself outta bed I watched this wit a bowl of ramen and some cigs and the past 30 minutes have felt like an eternity. Grinding some persona on my vita with this in the background there's just somethin about your content that's so utterly chill I can't even put it into words
Great choice for favorite OPs! Some of my favorites are Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Rurouni Kenshin, Berserk, Escaflowne, Wolf’s Rain, Ghost In The Shell SAC/2nd Gig, Made In Abyss, Frieren, Dorohedoro, Monster, InuYasha (many), One Punch Man, and more! I love the nostalgia rain that floods in and emotions stroked with key visuals and moments that really bring you into the scenes!
This video is top tier, love your editing. The whole time i was thinking, where is cowboy bebop, evangelion, and jojo, and then there they were!! all that was missing was my all time favourite, the berserk 97 opening. but then, low and behold, literally as i was writing this comment, i hear those beautifully out of key guitar notes. You do not disappoint!
22:17 I have been looking for this song for almost 15 YEARS!!!! I can't believe I found it. Thank you for this video & this channel. I'll be sure to catch up on the rest of your content!
Hey man. I'm so glad you didn't give up on this video, furthermore your channel. I gotta thank the algorithm on this one. Influence of Anime on the Film Industry was my intro to the channel and I've been back tracking from there. I think it's awesome you've got a friend who's as open about anime as you are. I wish I had that. To feel there is a community around you that shares the same passions is reassuring and I wish I knew that when I was younger. Maybe I wouldn't have been so discouraged to share my love of anime with those around me. As anime has become more mainstream in recent years with series like One Punch Man, My Hero Academia and most notably Attack on Titan bringing new fans into the fold its been refreshing to see anime get the recognition and most importantly the love it deserves beyond the closed doors of our weeb ridden bedrooms. Keep this channel going. It's the coolest thing on RUclips 💯%. My favorite OPs: Kyoto Arc OP of Rurouni Kenshin/Samurai X "1/2" by Makoto Kawamoto Dororo 2019 OP - "火炎" by Queen Bee Blue Period OP Samurai Champloo OP TRIGUN OP Dragon Ball Z OP Neon Genesis Evangelion OP Hellsing OP
Stand Alone Complex. Inner Universe, Christmas in the Silent Forest, take your pick. Also Utena. You talked about Trigun. All the Bleach openings. Madoka. You didn't talk about the Death Note openings, that was a "historical moment" for anime in the west, and the Evangelion opening could be a video on its own. Could use a bit more history, but this was one cool video.
I gotta say, I love your editing style and sense of comedy and I can heavily relate to being impacted by show openings. Some of my favorite to listen to tend to be very up beat, with the openings of Noragami, Hunter x Hunter, and Haikyuu coming to mind. But there are also some like the Evangelion opening, the first Tokyo Ghoul: Re opening, and the first Kekkai Sensen opening that, while not sad by any means, hit me in a different way and I love listening to them as well. I also love a show like Cowboy Bebop or Kids on the Slope that has a good background soundtrack and feel that music without lyrics can still be very very powerful. Anyways, keep up the good work my guy.
Mannn… that ending of the video completely got me 😢. I relate to you on a lot about the journey in life “is the stronger skin you develop, through walking that fire”. I loved that a lot. Amazing video ♥️
My favourite anime opening is the one for the Records of Lodoss War TV series. The combination of those gorgeous visuals with the hauntingly beautiful melody of Kiseki no Umi gets me every time.
I know this is a year old video but just found your channel and been binge watching your videos! These are all bangers but nothing and I mean nothing beats the 3rd bleach opening. Been watching anime in one way or another for close to 30 years being 36 now. My husband is 10 years older than me and half Japanese and let me tell you he opened my eyes to some truly epic older anime’s and their openings.
Hey, would you mind a little talk? I'm a big aot fan (although anime only) and I want to get into Berserk in the near future. A lot of Berserk fans shit on aot, so I'm glad I've found you. Can you tell me why do you like Berserk or what should I expect from it, or what are the things that you wish you'd known before you started reading/watching it? I would probably read the manga instead of watching the anime...
@@szilveszterforgo8776 ya bro so I actually have only watched the anime and if you do watch it then go with the 1997 anime version. I’ve heard the manga is 10x better but it’s up to you on what you wanna go with. The fighting, story, and character development is top tier with having Guts and Griffith! Although I do suggest that if you don’t like gruesome things don’t watch it, Especially episode 25 (golden age arc) But ya man it’s a great anime/manga to get into!!🔥🔥
Man I can't believe you mentioned Jojo openings without mentioning the ones from part 4. When I heard Great days for the first time the voice of love took me so high
Man, TOTALLY agree on battlecry as your #1. Samurai Champloo will always be a reminder of a transitioning point in my life. I had just entered high school when I got around to watching it. I was still relatively new to Virginia, as my family moved there from Texas right before I started 8th Grade due to my mom being in the army. In that time, I managed toa small, close group of friends that had similar interests, stuck close together, hung out almost ALL the time, and went on adventures almost every time we met up. The woods behind my house was one of our favorite places to explore because of how deeply lost in the trees we could get despite our entrance into the place being right behind my house. I had known about Champloo for quite a while before that because people online in forums I visited (remember forums?) were always talking about how good that and Cowboy Bebop were, but I finally got spurred into watching it because the first friend I made in Virginia really liked the show! In those days, myself being a cringey lowlife bum anime weeb, I saw a lot of Mugen, Jin, and Fuu in my friends and I, and I always thought to myself "if I were to be trapped in an anime, let it be Samurai Champloo for all the adventures I could have." Lupin the 3rd strikes a VERY similar kind of vibe with me, and that's in part because of the similarities in the format and vibe of the shows (namely Lupin Part 2). I'd say Samurai Champloo, Lupin the 3rd, Yu Yu Hakusho, Black Lagoon, Trigun, and Full Metal Panic might just have my favorite anime openings of all time.
Dude thank you for sharing this in the comments it means so much and I totally get that idea of seeing characters from a show and relating them to your friend group!
@@InternetPitstop Hey, thank YOU for providing such good content, man! I’ve been binge listening (and watching, when I can) to your videos while I’m at work! Always make sure to keep my hands free at the end so I can leave a like, haha.
Okay despite all the amazing anime openings in this video, that OG dragon ball track you played at the start just unlocked loads of memories that I never even knew I had. Thank you.
Glad you mentioned the Kaiba Opening, even if in passing. I also really loved the Record of Lodoss War TV opening, Slayers (all of the Slayers openings) and Orphen especially. All of them great earworms that have completely different vibes from each other.
Glad to see some love for the air gear op, even though its not that great. The whole soundtrack is just amazing, just the variations of the op are inspiring.
It was actually one of the shows that got me into anime and one of the only ones I watched with a friend. Late at night we booted it up on our 3Ds's in my room during a sleepover. And he recommended it to me just because I loved Rollerblades so much. Little did I know I was gonna get to watch an absolutely exhilerating shounen with "fights" that blow my mind even on re-watch.
Air Gear opening is a favorite of mine for the pure nostalgia of being like 10 and finding air gear on some sketchy ass website we had to rely on back then. It's the reason I finished the Manga and even though the Manga wasn't amazing, it was still pretty interesting and the opening automatically played in my head whenever some cool shit happened.
Holy shit I feel like you just ripped a seal off of my childhood memory. I remember being like 8 or 9 and seeing the Paranoia Agent opening at 3am or so as well and thinking it was such an odd intro compared to the usual stuff. legit probably fell asleep again after the intro and totally forgot I’d ever even witnessed that. Never thought about it another day in my life, like it never happened. Kind of like how you forget a dream, but as soon soon it started at 13:51. It felt like a bandaid being ripped off my brain as the memory flooded back of that one night 🤯 what a alien sensation that was 😮💨
When i heard the Air Gear opening i got so hype! It’s one of my personal favorites too hope the anime gets a S2/reboot😭also you got a great taste for anime openings keep doing ya thing👌🏼
I was scared berserk opening won't be mentioned, but thanks for making my day! I didn't find this channel, this channel found me. and I love the aesthetics of the videos a lot! - A Fellow grass enjoyer
Great video and some really solid choices for personal favs. Hunter x Hunters new version openings are sick, One Piece, Bleach (anything Flow) and Naturo have too many favs to remember anymore. Wonder if you ever watched Beck, really solid coming of life story with some amazing music. Tony Chiba is amazing!
I was so happy with that triumphant entry of Battlecry just at the end. Great video, thanks. Some I remember are Sakura Saku, from Love Hina; basically all openings and endings from Rurouni Kenshin (I specially love the ending with "It's gonna rain"; great visuals, vibes and music); Elfen Lied's opening is gorgeous; I absolutely love the first opening from Sailor Moon.... I remember the music from Aa! Megami-sama's opening vividly, but I don't remember the visuals haha. Well...
Hey thank you so much for watching all the way till the end ! That opening means so much to me also great choices I don’t hear enough ppl praise those openings as much as they deserve to be praised
bro you ain't talking to no one we all listening, great video and strongly underrated youtuber, thank you for the content and looking forward to see u in ur next vid.
Bruh paranoia agent opening definitely woke me up in the dead of night too. Never understood it as a kid but i was feeling it in a equally unsettling way
So glad to see Air Gear get a mention! It feels like one of those gems I found as a kid that never got the attention it deserved. I still bop out to it's op to this day!
I unironically get emotional and tear up every time I hear the OG Pokemon theme. It fills me with so much emotion I literally can't contain it. There's nothing else that can do that to me. People look at me like I'm crazy but I legit can't help it and don't understand it myself. I just feel such a massive amount of happiness and sadness at the same time.
You don't have to understand the words of a song. If you're a human with spirit, the energy of the music itself will move you.
You always leaving the best comments my guy lol
Dang, man! You get it. You definitely get it. 😃
True that!!♥️🙏🤟
Yas. It's about the vibes
A shame you seemed an honest man
The fact that this is IP’s first video is wildly impressive. Dude introduced himself with a fully formed, thirty minute Banger
Thx bro! Took me a few attempts and rewrites to form this video so glad to hear it was worth it!
Hell yeah one huge banger!
top tier production. This man is up next
Inspired by nakeyjakey my man, and thank you bro I can only hope lol
@@InternetPitstop loved this vid but... you made a video about anime ops without mentioning monogatari once
@@InternetPitstop based
For real
You were right
Dude the samurai champloo opening was so incredibly cold, it needs more recognition
YES BRO
Yeah I love that OP so much I listen to it to this day
Cool as into, I reacted to nujabes on my channel
its simply the coldest intro of all time BAR NONE
On gooooood

Honestly ! It’s only here that ppl give weird looks to anything not English and Naa get that translated shit outta here I need the real deal ! Lol
It's not everyone, I grew up listening to Rammstein so I've never always needed the words to be understandable...
It's as though people seem to forget that all American media distributed overseas are considered "foreign". Then Americans get snobby at the thought of suffering through subtitles. 😅

This video is better than so many I’ve seen from creators with over 100k subs. You’re in the right road man
I really appreciate that man thank you 🌊
It's not really an anime opening but THAT scene in Castle in the sky by studio Ghibli of that magical, enormous castle with a tree growing on top just keep rising into the sky with the beautiful main theme playing, it was stuck in my head and remembering it gave me tears because for a long time I denied the fact I loved anime so much and to this day it holds a special place in my heart
Love that movie ! And I love the whole aesthetic of a castle in the sky with overgrown trees and fucking ancient robots lol
I might be wrong but the title of the song is merry go round of life.
Thats howling moving castles theme, so yes you are wrong

a goat cartoon inspired by a goat anime, you love to see it. also nice username
Anime endings are pretty beautiful too.
Think Wind from Naruto with Akeboshi. Mehn, those flute and accent over speaking English reminds me of discovering Naruto in highschool and watching it with my siblings when we come home from school.
I heard it again this year and I had to stop myself from crying cos...
Damn it! Now I'm all emotional again.
Wind gets me teared up as well. I discovered it at 13-14. I related too hard to the lyrics.
Also pretty much anything from Do As Infinity, as featured on Inu Yasha and others...songs like Fukai Mori and Shinjustu no Uta.
Beyond that, while it kinda seems as though distorted guitar is not genrally associated with beautiful sounds, but I think a lot of output by The Pillows from the late 90s to mid-00s, especially a lot of what was curated for the FLCL soundtrack, is alternative rock at its most beautiful, probably exceeding the like of Weezer and Smashing Pumpkins. Beautiful Morning with You, Hybrid Rainbow, Carnival, and Instant Music are just incredibly lush rock tunes.
Shiki No Uta from Samurai Champloo has this same effect for me.
The FLCL ending as well
Chichi wo Motomete from Voltes V too
The one opening I always loved and never skipped was Baccano's... The anime itself is one of my all time favorites
Baccano is absolutely goated in so many ways.
Dude I‘m so happy you put in the Noragami Anime Opening. That was one of the first animes I watched and it‘s still my absolute favorite. Whenever I hear any of the openings I just wanna scream my lungs put cause my brain can’t process how great it is

@@jimmyberry4451 yes!!! The Ferris wheel was lovely! Also the spider Lillies, autumn leaves, and snow. The color palette featuring a lot of reds, greens, purples, and earth tones is really beautiful.
Waking up early morning to the sound of an Inuyasha ED was magical. If I remember correctly they would always air two episodes so whenever I woke up to them I prayed one episode was ending so I could catch the second one starting.
Performing 'Tank!' on guitar, live, with a full jazz ensemble, was one of the coolest experiences ever. We all absolutely loved performing it!
The Bebop OP is also so important for me. It reminds me of when I also thought of growing up and not needing to study daily and how easy a job would be and now when I look back I am reminded of these best moments of that childhood when I had so much free time to do stuff I wanted, so many friends, and such a lovely daily routine.

Welcome to the corner of the internet!
@@InternetPitstop thanks and greets from Mexico :)
Asian Kung Fu Generation had some of the hardest openings. The FMA opening they did was rad as all hell
Bro I love your trig in short I want one!!! Trough is one of my favorite anime’s!
The moment you mentioned the Evangelion's op I was like "Oh, finally, I was starting to get worried". But I had to pause the video to listen to the entirety of Jojo's op because... Jojo. So be right back, because I love this video so much.
Edit: that's better. let's continue.
I've been a fan of your content for like a couple months now but the experience of watching this video was so ethereal. You've been goated from the jump bro I woke up at 11pm after a post-school like 6+ hour nap and after dragging myself outta bed I watched this wit a bowl of ramen and some cigs and the past 30 minutes have felt like an eternity. Grinding some persona on my vita with this in the background there's just somethin about your content that's so utterly chill I can't even put it into words
That ending speech made me emotional. Thank you so much! This is one of my favourite videos on this platform ❤️
That means a lot it came straight from the heart! thank you so much.
Great choice for favorite OPs!
Some of my favorites are Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Rurouni Kenshin, Berserk, Escaflowne, Wolf’s Rain, Ghost In The Shell SAC/2nd Gig, Made In Abyss, Frieren, Dorohedoro, Monster, InuYasha (many), One Punch Man, and more!
I love the nostalgia rain that floods in and emotions stroked with key visuals and moments that really bring you into the scenes!
This video is top tier, love your editing. The whole time i was thinking, where is cowboy bebop, evangelion, and jojo, and then there they were!! all that was missing was my all time favourite, the berserk 97 opening.
but then, low and behold, literally as i was writing this comment, i hear those beautifully out of key guitar notes. You do not disappoint!

I have been looking for this song for almost 15 YEARS!!!! I can't believe I found it. Thank you for this video & this channel. I'll be sure to catch up on the rest of your content!
Hey man. I'm so glad you didn't give up on this video, furthermore your channel. I gotta thank the algorithm on this one. Influence of Anime on the Film Industry was my intro to the channel and I've been back tracking from there.
I think it's awesome you've got a friend who's as open about anime as you are. I wish I had that. To feel there is a community around you that shares the same passions is reassuring and I wish I knew that when I was younger. Maybe I wouldn't have been so discouraged to share my love of anime with those around me.
As anime has become more mainstream in recent years with series like One Punch Man, My Hero Academia and most notably Attack on Titan bringing new fans into the fold its been refreshing to see anime get the recognition and most importantly the love it deserves beyond the closed doors of our weeb ridden bedrooms. Keep this channel going. It's the coolest thing on RUclips 💯%.
My favorite OPs:
Kyoto Arc OP of Rurouni Kenshin/Samurai X "1/2" by Makoto Kawamoto
Dororo 2019 OP - "火炎" by Queen Bee
Blue Period OP
Samurai Champloo OP
TRIGUN OP
Dragon Ball Z OP
Neon Genesis Evangelion OP
Hellsing OP
Thank you bro this was great to read man and thank you for all your comments recently your support is crazy much love man❤️
Stand Alone Complex. Inner Universe, Christmas in the Silent Forest, take your pick. Also Utena. You talked about Trigun. All the Bleach openings. Madoka. You didn't talk about the Death Note openings, that was a "historical moment" for anime in the west, and the Evangelion opening could be a video on its own. Could use a bit more history, but this was one cool video.
I gotta say, I love your editing style and sense of comedy and I can heavily relate to being impacted by show openings. Some of my favorite to listen to tend to be very up beat, with the openings of Noragami, Hunter x Hunter, and Haikyuu coming to mind. But there are also some like the Evangelion opening, the first Tokyo Ghoul: Re opening, and the first Kekkai Sensen opening that, while not sad by any means, hit me in a different way and I love listening to them as well. I also love a show like Cowboy Bebop or Kids on the Slope that has a good background soundtrack and feel that music without lyrics can still be very very powerful. Anyways, keep up the good work my guy.
Mannn… that ending of the video completely got me 😢. I relate to you on a lot about the journey in life “is the stronger skin you develop, through walking that fire”. I loved that a lot. Amazing video ♥️
I just discovered your channel, and I absolutely love the vibe, the jokes, the production, everything! I'm hooked. Keep up the amazing work bro!!
Thank you dude I will!
The beginning of a true saiyan warrior
My favourite anime opening is the one for the Records of Lodoss War TV series. The combination of those gorgeous visuals with the hauntingly beautiful melody of Kiseki no Umi gets me every time.
I agreed with every song you mentioned. One of my new favorite videos.
New video tomorrow!
Yessssss
I know this is a year old video but just found your channel and been binge watching your videos! These are all bangers but nothing and I mean nothing beats the 3rd bleach opening. Been watching anime in one way or another for close to 30 years being 36 now. My husband is 10 years older than me and half Japanese and let me tell you he opened my eyes to some truly epic older anime’s and their openings.
Dude you’re so underrated!! Great vid, Beserk and Aot Titan all the way🔥🔥
Thank you bro ! And you’re pfp is wavy 🌊
Hey, would you mind a little talk?
I'm a big aot fan (although anime only) and I want to get into Berserk in the near future. A lot of Berserk fans shit on aot, so I'm glad I've found you. Can you tell me why do you like Berserk or what should I expect from it, or what are the things that you wish you'd known before you started reading/watching it? I would probably read the manga instead of watching the anime...
@@szilveszterforgo8776 ya bro so I actually have only watched the anime and if you do watch it then go with the 1997 anime version. I’ve heard the manga is 10x better but it’s up to you on what you wanna go with. The fighting, story, and character development is top tier with having Guts and Griffith! Although I do suggest that if you don’t like gruesome things don’t watch it, Especially episode 25 (golden age arc) But ya man it’s a great anime/manga to get into!!🔥🔥
Been lurking for a bit. Look at you and your fun videos, and budget.
Yes Jojo opening 2 is so catchy one of the reasons why I enjoy part 2
Yes ! It’s probably my favorite tbh I love Joseph as a protagonist
@@InternetPitstop yes I’m still a new Jojo fan but so far Joseph is my favorite
Had a whole paragraph typed up about how you didn't mention paranoia agent right as you said "woke up at 3am" I stopped typing cause I already knew
Man I can't believe you mentioned Jojo openings without mentioning the ones from part 4. When I heard Great days for the first time the voice of love took me so high
Bro you are a king 👑 don't ever let anyone kick you down thank you for all your videos.
Man, TOTALLY agree on battlecry as your #1. Samurai Champloo will always be a reminder of a transitioning point in my life. I had just entered high school when I got around to watching it. I was still relatively new to Virginia, as my family moved there from Texas right before I started 8th Grade due to my mom being in the army. In that time, I managed toa small, close group of friends that had similar interests, stuck close together, hung out almost ALL the time, and went on adventures almost every time we met up. The woods behind my house was one of our favorite places to explore because of how deeply lost in the trees we could get despite our entrance into the place being right behind my house. I had known about Champloo for quite a while before that because people online in forums I visited (remember forums?) were always talking about how good that and Cowboy Bebop were, but I finally got spurred into watching it because the first friend I made in Virginia really liked the show! In those days, myself being a cringey lowlife bum anime weeb, I saw a lot of Mugen, Jin, and Fuu in my friends and I, and I always thought to myself "if I were to be trapped in an anime, let it be Samurai Champloo for all the adventures I could have."
Lupin the 3rd strikes a VERY similar kind of vibe with me, and that's in part because of the similarities in the format and vibe of the shows (namely Lupin Part 2). I'd say Samurai Champloo, Lupin the 3rd, Yu Yu Hakusho, Black Lagoon, Trigun, and Full Metal Panic might just have my favorite anime openings of all time.
Dude thank you for sharing this in the comments it means so much and I totally get that idea of seeing characters from a show and relating them to your friend group!
@@InternetPitstop Hey, thank YOU for providing such good content, man! I’ve been binge listening (and watching, when I can) to your videos while I’m at work! Always make sure to keep my hands free at the end so I can leave a like, haha.
glad i found this channel love these trips down memory lane man.
It hurts to watch your videos, not because they're bad no, because they force me to think about shit. I love them so much man, keep it up.
Okay despite all the amazing anime openings in this video, that OG dragon ball track you played at the start just unlocked loads of memories that I never even knew I had.
Thank you.
Glad you mentioned the Kaiba Opening, even if in passing. I also really loved the Record of Lodoss War TV opening, Slayers (all of the Slayers openings) and Orphen especially. All of them great earworms that have completely different vibes from each other.
Amazing fucking video. Good intro to your channel. Love the use of music and the picks, you speak for a demographic but a only a few rightful souls
Glad to see some love for the air gear op, even though its not that great. The whole soundtrack is just amazing, just the variations of the op are inspiring.
It was actually one of the shows that got me into anime and one of the only ones I watched with a friend. Late at night we booted it up on our 3Ds's in my room during a sleepover. And he recommended it to me just because I loved Rollerblades so much. Little did I know I was gonna get to watch an absolutely exhilerating shounen with "fights" that blow my mind even on re-watch.
I love you for adding Reflection Eternal at the end. That song was my first Nujabes song and that man saved my life. Not even kidding.
18:58 bro became Anthony Fantano
I just want to see you and Jakey, in a good, old fashioned, wholesome video about (totally random topic that I now care so much more about) ❤️
Air Gear opening is a favorite of mine for the pure nostalgia of being like 10 and finding air gear on some sketchy ass website we had to rely on back then. It's the reason I finished the Manga and even though the Manga wasn't amazing, it was still pretty interesting and the opening automatically played in my head whenever some cool shit happened.
Holy shit I feel like you just ripped a seal off of my childhood memory. I remember being like 8 or 9 and seeing the Paranoia Agent opening at 3am or so as well and thinking it was such an odd intro compared to the usual stuff. legit probably fell asleep again after the intro and totally forgot I’d ever even witnessed that. Never thought about it another day in my life, like it never happened. Kind of like how you forget a dream, but as soon soon it started at 13:51. It felt like a bandaid being ripped off my brain as the memory flooded back of that one night 🤯 what a alien sensation that was 😮💨
When i heard the Air Gear opening i got so hype! It’s one of my personal favorites too hope the anime gets a S2/reboot😭also you got a great taste for anime openings keep doing ya thing👌🏼
Bro after watching that anime I was obsessed with roller blading for months
Honestly though? The whole Air Gear soundtrack, What a Groovy Trick, slaps.
Grew up listening to the pillows and when I finally watched FLCL and realized they did the soundtrack that shit was fucking hype
So excited to watch this channel blow up
You hit the mark with the Paranoia Agent opening. Holy Shit.
I was scared berserk opening won't be mentioned, but thanks for making my day!
I didn't find this channel, this channel found me. and I love the aesthetics of the videos a lot!
- A Fellow grass enjoyer
Great video and some really solid choices for personal favs. Hunter x Hunters new version openings are sick, One Piece, Bleach (anything Flow) and Naturo have too many favs to remember anymore.
Wonder if you ever watched Beck, really solid coming of life story with some amazing music. Tony Chiba is amazing!
Yeah I actually talk about beck in this video love that show and yes anything by flow or Asian king fu generation is an instant banger
Battlecry no. 1 too, good sir. Cool that it has influenced both of us so greatly. Thanks for finishing this vid, you got good taste in anime and music
I was so happy with that triumphant entry of Battlecry just at the end. Great video, thanks.
Some I remember are Sakura Saku, from Love Hina; basically all openings and endings from Rurouni Kenshin (I specially love the ending with "It's gonna rain"; great visuals, vibes and music); Elfen Lied's opening is gorgeous; I absolutely love the first opening from Sailor Moon.... I remember the music from Aa! Megami-sama's opening vividly, but I don't remember the visuals haha.
Well...
Hey thank you so much for watching all the way till the end ! That opening means so much to me also great choices I don’t hear enough ppl praise those openings as much as they deserve to be praised
I only found this guy's channel a few days ago.Honestly amazing videos he makes
Right away bro u deserve ode subs. 💯 great comedy and commentary and let's not forget the editing
I appreciate you coming through and dropping this comment man thank you 🌊
bro you ain't talking to no one we all listening, great video and strongly underrated youtuber, thank you for the content and looking forward to see u in ur next vid.
IP: "Complete butchering of the English language"
Me: IT WAS IN ENGLISH!?!?!
i love how you came swinging out the gates with this!! The edits and humor was already amazing!
Bruh paranoia agent opening definitely woke me up in the dead of night too. Never understood it as a kid but i was feeling it in a equally unsettling way
This video really hit me at the right time, especially your speech at the end about moving forward. Thank you very much.
Thank you for commenting bro makes the video feel that much more meaningful that it did something for ya, hope you’re doing well ❤️
Your content is so good!!!!
Aye yo you gotta upload more bro. Your videos are straight heat
Thank you bro bro ! I’m definitely gonna try to upload more often ! New year resolution for sure
So glad to see Air Gear get a mention! It feels like one of those gems I found as a kid that never got the attention it deserved. I still bop out to it's op to this day!
Man thanks for doing these videos. Just discovered your channel. I really hope you find success on RUclips. You're really really talented.
Bro thank you that means a lot ❤️
This video was absolutly incredible, I don't have more words. Thank you for putting it together.
I unironically get emotional and tear up every time I hear the OG Pokemon theme. It fills me with so much emotion I literally can't contain it. There's nothing else that can do that to me. People look at me like I'm crazy but I legit can't help it and don't understand it myself. I just feel such a massive amount of happiness and sadness at the same time.
You are not alone
