Japanator writes: What? Did you think "Our Favorite Anime Openings Week" was over? Here at Japanator we spit on stupid rules likes the measurement of time and punctuality! Commence! The week rides on!
It's Thursday so I thought we'd go a little old school and check in with our resident lover of classic anime, Josh Totman, Aka the Cooking Otaku. He brings us back to one of my favorites as well, the wild and lovable, Ranma 1/2. The opening track is Don't Make me Wild, by Etsuko Nishio.
My favourite anime songs:
Pokemon English opening (still love it)

Naruto Battle Theme

Shaman King English opening:

One Piece, Rorouni Kenshin, Gurren Lagaan, Code Geass and Trigun all have great openings.
Ranma 1/2 opening in mexican dub is IMO better then the original japanese version

heck if you guys type "ranma" in youtube its the first video that shows up and also the most viewed, i remember when i came in a hurry from school just to watch ranma 1/2 and dragon ball z...oh nostalgia :)
Nothing beats Samurai Champloo's opening to me. Darker than Black's "Howling" and TTGL's "Sorairo Days" comes close, tho. I also like the feelgood openings of Azumanga Daioh and Lucky star.
