Hmm... I had much to disagree with that 2ch ranking list. Back when I saw it, I got the strong impression that people were voting songs based on the series they came out of. Frankly, no matter how you put it, Cruel Angel's Thesis is simply not a song which deserves the top spot. The melody is average, vocalization uninspiring, and orchestration bland. The fact that it belonged to one of the most influential animes of the last decade shouldn't give it a free ride to the top. Maybe I'm missing the point of the thread and that poll, but I feel we should judge music on the music alone.
Back to suggesting... Polyphonica - Apocrypha (OP) Ichigo 100% - Ike Ike (ED) Kannagi - Motto☆Hade ni ne! (OP) Kanokon - Koi no Honoo (ED) Mai-Hime - Chiisa na Hoshi ga Oriru Tok (Not Sure) Inukami - Hikari (OP) Pandora Hearts - Parallel Hearts (OP) and Maze (ED)

@space cowboy:
You can find the updated list of songs included in the hall of fame in my first post at page 1. Berserk's "Tell Me Why" is included in the list. Songs included here are opening themes, ending themes and insert/background songs. Image songs or Character songs are not included unless they are incorporated in the anime itself. @christinemarie: Thanks for the Current Top Ten Gendou Anime Songs Overall rating, the Gendou website is a great source of information on anime music. If anyone has information of any anime music best of lists or countdowns please do share. @Tyranus, thanks for the 2ch video, I think the earlier post by christinemarie is the latest 2ch ranking as of May 21, 2008. The 2ch list was one of the inspirations for the birth of this thread. Here's the full list Spoiler for video:

Aahhhhhh thanks for reminding me, City Hunter also had another EPIC song imo, well one that is definitively one of my faves even though I never saw the anime cause it was way before my time... I guess (It sounds like an 80's song tho so I guess I was still a kid when this anime was airing): Anime: City Hunter Song: Mr Private Eye Singer: Yuko Otaki

@ CuXe: I think it has something to do with the music style of TM Network that's definitely 80's.
@christinemarie : I'm actually a big fan of the soundtrack of Gintama, Donten included, as well as the anime. Rest assured Donten will be in next week, thanks for reminding me, I don't know why I passed up on your suggestion. Nonetheless, a song from a series earlier inducted doesn't mean it's the superior one. @space cowboy. OMG! Thank you so much for pointing out my huge mistake... my bad. Yeah, I meant "euphoric field". I feel like a douche. hehe |
