Personally my top 3 favourites are:

  • Attack on Titan all the one by Samuel Kim
  • Bleach all the soundtrack from Shiro sagisu
  • 86, that show had some amazing soundtracks

I’ve got to add as an extra for me Madoka Magica has some great soundtracks!!

I like almost every anime song I listen to lol…

But… if the OST involves Kalafina or Hiroyuki Sawano I’ll probably be addicted to it for a while…

Honorable Mention to Anna Tsuchiya (Nana /RE movie) and L’arc~en~Ciel that were part of my childhood

My favorite tracks from anime are the Evangelion OP, and the L’s theme from Death Note. For sure there are many more songs that just have sunk into my soul, such as the Pokemon OP or Bloody Stream (Jojo), but to the first two I listen on a regular basis

Cowboy Bebop, hands down

Death Note had such spectacular OPs and EDs, specially the second season, the creative gimnastics must have been over the roof! I dont know what they took, but I want some of that!

Yeah, the second OP is… uh… well… Someday my brother said it was the first anime OP he was skipping. However, the anime itself stays awesome as hell

If we go adding openings I have to add JoJo’s then, they did not miss a shot with any of the openings and I’ve got to say the pillar man soundtrack is an absolute vibe
