Hey everyone I’m wheatsquares maybe to be known from uh indefinitely paused personal rankdown! I don’t want to admit defeat and call that rankdown *dead* but uh hey instead of finishing reveals on that how about I start another one! And this one I’m a bit passionate about.
It’s probably no secret that I am just as nerdy about anime as I am about music, so naturally I have developed a passion for anime music over the years. A lot of openings, endings, and insert songs have legitimately become some of my favorite songs of all time and I want to share some of them (as well as have the chance to talk about some of my favorite shows). So I guess the best way to go about that would be with a rankdown.
Now I realize that making such a specific and kinda lame rankdown is a hard sell, so this one’s short, only 30 songs, and I tried to include a pretty broad swath of genres in this list. Yes you have a little j-pop and j-rock naturally, but also some nu metal, gothic rock, hip hop, progressive rock, soundtrack samples, some British indie rock, mid-2000s emo (you know me), and some classic dad rock thrown into the mix. I do love all of these songs of course, but did branch out beyond just my top 30 favorite openings. As for the shows themselves, some I’ve seen and loved, some I’ve seen and haven’t liked, some I know nothing about and just like the song (but I’ve seen at least one episode of everything on here). I’ll be sure to go into more detail on all of these in the actual reveals.
So yeah normal rankdown rules just send me your ranked list in the format I have the songs here and I’ll hopefully reveal them all one by one, and will probably have long write-ups for every reveal so I can talk about the artist/show/staff/etc. This is a passion project yes, and as such I’m keeping an open deadline here, no idea who would actually be interested in this but if you do participate hopefully you can get at least one or two cool discoveries! I’ll set something more solid once I get a few lists in or at least comments expressing interest.
Okay so here’s the list (and if this is a success I got like easily 2 or 3 more sets of thirty to do, these aren’t even necessarily all my favorites just some good introductory picks. Name of the show the song is from and how it is used are in parentheses, OP means opening song, ED means ending song, insert song is a song performance in the show itself).

Full playlist including Spotify songs on Youtube (missing: two songs below and Bite which is only on Spotify)

Alright well hope you guys have fun with this! Guess I'll use approximately the same set of tags I did in my last rankdown? Not sure who wants to do this so I'll just stick with people I kinda know. Let me know if you're interested at least. Or if you're not and I'll untag. Let's just see how this goes haha.
