I don't get to see much anime these days, but I really like the music in Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo. The Neon Genesis opening is pretty good, and Area 88's music is OK. I can't think of any others I've seen that had music that I really got into.

I know it's not anime, but the opening to Batman Beyond and the original opening to the current Batman cartoon were both really cool.

er...I so should not be in this thread. Anime music???

Uh,

Speed Racer
Kimba the White Lion
Star Blazers
Battle of the Planets

Do these qualify?

1. Ranma 1/2 (almost any Open or Closing, but love Season 1 Opening)

2. Neon Genesis Opening

3. GitS: SAC Opening for Season 1 and 2

4. Chobits Opening

5. Classic Bubblegum Crisis songs.

[Ryougabot]

Mospeada Soundtrack
Bubble Gum Crisis - especially Body Heat
Voices - Macross Plus
Nausicaa's theme Nausicaa and the Valley of the Wind
Most Classic Macross songs are good

Wow, I feel old

This makes me wonder what Anime would translate well to Heroscape. Hmmmm

[Euryon]

Opening theme to "Fist of the North Star" the series.
EVA theme.

Don't know too many others, alas.

Ditto. Bebop and Champloo are the only anime that I think are worthwile. I watched as much DBZ as the next ADD inflicted in my youth, but the changes they make in the dub ruin the experience for me.

I just remembered one I need to add. I really like the Trigun music. The commercial breaks are annoying, but the other music is pretty good. As I said in the other anime thread, I couldn't get into the series. I wanted to like it, but it just bugged me. Call it a train wreck; I've seen almost every episode.

COMMERCIAL BREAKS?!?!?

impure! impure! Cartoon Network is not the fount of anime! american voice actors, as a law of nature, suck. also, cartoon network edits scenes for pg-13 violence and sex!

I know not everyone can grab the dvds, but there are ways...
of course dvds are the best way to go for quality of video, subtitles and audio. you can pick up a lot of anime series from e-commerce sites now for like $30 for 26 episodes. good stuff.

oh, also about trigun, the series is very much meant to be seen in order, unlike say cowboy bebop.

oh was this thread about anime music?

Bebop had a great theme, Naruto had many good openings, especially the addictive "fighting dreamers" one. I cant remember cruel angels thesis, although i can see the video in my head. Bleach had a killer first season intro. Oh, and Samurai Champloo has an amazing soundtrack.

edit: if you didn't see trigun on cartoon network, and i read you comment incorrectly, i apologize
