janfive, what's the criteria used to determine which songs make it to the list? I tried searching through the thread, but after 20 minutes, no luck. If it's buried in this thread somewhere where I missed it, could you attach it to the OP?
I ask partly because I'd be embarrassed to be found listening to the majority of these songs in your list. The taste in music seems very odd, but there are a lot of songs that others suggested that sound really good--they're better than the songs ranked highly, but most are no where to be seen on the massive list.
I found this thread by googling "best anime songs" and also came upon a few other sites,
JapanProbe and
Japanator/2chan, and jumped to the conclusion that you probably are going by Japanese tastes rather than "English speaking world" tastes. That or you are going by numbers (of times people have listened to them or number of people who know of the song), which explains why a bunch of really old songs made it.
I guess I'm just sad that my favorite song
isn't mentioned...
- Kara no Kyoukai EP5 ED; Kalafina「Sprinter」
