DISCUSSION: Official Anime Theme Songs of FFR

**Squeek** · 10-28-2005, 12:24 PM

Open discussion on the matter.

Include in your post what you think is the best Opening Theme, Ending Theme, and Soundtrack Theme.

Opening is the intro song and Ending is the ending song. Obviously. The Soundtrack song is a song that plays DURING an episode / movie. It doesn't become the intro or ending, but it is still significant for you.

It's going to be hard to reach a consensus on the matter, but we'll try.

OP - Innocent Starter from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha.
ED - Be Your Girl from Elfen Lied.
OST theme - Elenor from MADLAX.

I doubt any of these have any real chance in hell of winning, simply due to lack of exposure for the song, but they certainly deserve to win.

OT: Cruel Angel's Thesis - Evangelion
ET: Ending theme to Episode 26 of SMJ-X. If you want one that recurs, the ending theme of Kare Kano
OST: Komm Süsser Tod - Evangelion

The last one is the only one I really support.

I underlined the corrections...to be specific.

Man, I really cant choose...so I going to basically choosing the songs which I would willingly listen.

OT: Yume no Shima Shinen Kouen - Susumu Hirasawa
ET: Waiting So Long - Silver Fins (Berserk)
OST: Silver Morning - Nujabes (Samurai Champloo) or Run - Susumu Hirasawa (Millenium Actress) Both of which I consider to be two of my favorite songs of all time.

**Squeek** · 10-28-2005, 05:32 PM

This is going to take me awhile for the rest, but I am quite certain I have the OST song.

OST: Mai-HiME - Mezame

One Piece songs are clouding my thought processes on best anime themes. But they're so good =X

**Chromer** · 10-29-2005, 09:10 PM

OT: Let Me Be With You - Chobits
ET- Who's Theme - Samurai Champloo
OST- Komm, Suesser Tod - End of Evangelion

OST: Tokiiro no Mai from Mai HiME

**Squeek** · 10-29-2005, 10:43 PM

I've limited my selections at least. I'm kinda getting somewhere...

Opening Themes:

Cardcaptor Sakura - Platinum
Ghost in the Shell SAC - Inner Universe
Stellvia - Asu e no Brilliant Road
Dragon Drive - True
Elfen Lied - Lilium
GTO - Driver's High
One Piece - Hikari E
RahXephon - Hemisphere

Ending Themes:

One Piece - Run Run Run, Faith, Free Will
Trinity Blood - Broken Wings
Basilisk - Hime Murasaki
Tsubasa Chronicle - Loop
Stellvia - The End of the World
Soukyuu no Fafner - Proof
ROD - Confidence
Kiddy Grade - Future
Bleach - Houkiboshi, Life is Like a Boat
Cowboy Bebop - The Real Folk Blues (See You Space Cowboy)

Believe me. I'm having fun choosing between them all. Lots.

**Chromer** · 10-30-2005, 01:06 AM

Out of all of those Squeek, I'll support Inner Universe, Driver's High, and The Real Folk Blues. I thought DH was really well done and went along with Onizuka's personality.

red-X0 · 11-1-2005, 07:40 AM

OT: outlaw star

**Chromer** · 11-1-2005, 05:37 PM

Which song? =/

Tasuke · 11-1-2005, 07:41 PM

OTS: "Cloud Age Symphony" ( Last Exile) or
"I Was Made To Hit in America" (BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad)

ETS: "Maho-mambo"(Mahoromatic) or
" Ride on Shooting Star" (FLCL)

How could you mention Outlaw Star and not put in Tsuki no Le for ETS?

Most opening and ending themes in anime's are horrible. The fact that I'm not Japanese relates to the fact that I can't appreciate them. Especially ending themes, ugh, those ones are the scrapings of the pan of Japanese themes.

o_O What a gross generalization. A lot of themes are great, ending themes included. Try listening to "The End of the World" from Stellvia. It's an ending theme and still one of my top favorite songs.

Also, while an understanding of the lyrics definitely helps, that's not to say you can't enjoy a song if you don't understand it. You can still appreciate it musically, the same way you do with lyric-less songs such as those in FFR, which I assume you enjoy.

Anyway, I'm not voting in these things because I don't think I've been here long enough to really have a say in something that represents the forums.

Ever heard of Rammstein? German band. Sings songs in German. They're kinda popular here in the US even if you can't understand a word they're saying. Even got a music video up on MTV back when it was at least trying to show some music videos.

To sum it up: generalizing dislike toward something is not very smart. If Nintendo puts out some Disney games, does that make their console for kiddy games only? A heck of a lot of people seem to assume this. However, when I look at my collection, about 70% of them have a nice little "T" in the corner.

Therefore, generalizations are dumb. Give them a chance or don't post about it.

~Squeek

PS - Still can't decide.
