Awesome Openings

[Kim]

Ultimate Muscle had the best opening (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdG5oX5lboE&feature=related)

I mean, I know the show probably sucks, and that it probably got butchered in translation because that seems to happen to a lot of kids shows, but I don't care. That opening makes me want to watch the English dub, because it is the pinnacle of silly manliness.

[greed]

From memory it wasn't too terrible, just stupid funny shonen, full of horrible puns like most translations of anime aimed at kids, but I do remember watching it when I was about 12-13 and not disliking it.

Anyway just to get past the obvious TANK! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6zDfxZ4NcE), Cowboy Bebop's opening is pretty freaking awesome.

From the West, I always thought The Soprano's (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLxSUKA--Dg) and both Dexter's (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej8-Rqo-VT4&feature=related) opening themes (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVcRKLAemKI) were pretty great.

Speaking of Tartakovsky, so was Samurai Jack's (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jgDEmW9nlU). I miss Mako.

Also Megas XLR. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDAPGLO-r4s&feature=related)

I find It Weird that ill.I.am can do that, but not be annoying elsewhere(anymore)

[Tev]

The original Iron Chef (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2e9nTeIwFk) opening is what sold the show to me. The music is so epic and when the Chairman bites into that pepper, gives that evil grin, and then the kitchen lights up with hundreds of chef minions......

Actually, I think you gotta find first gear in your giant-robot-car. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNu6_dxWbNo)

[Red Fighter 1073]

Regardless of what you think of the show and its awkward English dubbing, I actually kinda liked the English opening (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mt8RRtio93o) and its smooth guitar.

From what I've heard and what little I've seen, Ultimate Muscle is one of the few shows that didn't become complete garbage when 4Kids got a hold of it.

Take that as you will.

Also, Samurai Champloo's (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OuRajFzMYI) OP is stuck in my head at the moment.

I am Not a Number, I am a Free Man! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv813f2Xtrg&feature=related)

There once was a story about a man who could turn invisible. I thought it was just a story, until it happened to me... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JCTUIQq02A&feature=related)

Listen bud, he's got radioactive blood... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o29VoxtsFk)

There's still something missing from this thread...
Oh yeah, it's this! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YD4Zy_J8f0&feature=related)

This thread has also reminded me just how awesome Farscape was. I still really need to find those dvds.

Would now be a bad time to mention that Amazon.com had a special, where they were selling all 4 seasons for $59.99 (plus free shipping), back in January?

Of course, you can still get it for $67.49 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002GP7ZWI/ref=oss_product) & free shipping. So it isn't like I saved that much.

This doesn't include the Peacekeeper Wars, but its everything else, plus an extras DVD.

Lain has the best opening period. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XfJwh2cC6o&feature=related)

You miss some of the finer details at that resolution, sadly.

[Fusionman]

You are all wrong. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann wins. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJ79TVffpB8

[Nique]

I dig the Doctor Who openings. Any of them, really.

Don't deny that you know all the words. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbhbLrSQKyY)

[Lithp]

Any FMA(1) or Bleach opening. 3rd season Digimon opening.

I also agree wholeheartedly with Invader Zim.

Yeah, I know they're out there on the net and can be gotten easily enough, but whenever I see them anywhere they all seem to be like, £50 per season, which is fucking absurd. And they can't be found in any actual shops anywhere near me either.

EDIT; Just checked on amazon, £230 for the complete series, £90 for each season individualy. Any other tv show costs at most, £30 over here. It's fucking beyond belief. Hell you can buy all 10 seasons of Stargate SG1 and both movies for 2p less than Farscape season 3 on here!! What the fuck!?!


OH and shit guys, you know what we all totally forgot to add? THIS! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxrON0RBnCQ)

[Fusionman]

Nothing for the original Pokemon theme?

[bluestarultor]

You guys all disappoint me.

Seeing this again brought literal man-tears to my eyes. Unless you all just were leaving it assumed, I'm afraid I'm going to have to disown you all.

I assumed it was in there. However if this isn't you will be disowned. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agY9axKRNaU

No love for this awesome guitar solo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUe5Ugg6Iks&feature=PlayList&p=3FDE3BAC650AF444&playnext=1&index=27) yet?
