30 Day Anime Challenge Day 14: What Is Your Favorite Anime Opening Or Ending?
You know when you first see a tv show and you don’t really think about the opening? Well, I never had that problem with anime. I always love to watch the openings of these shows. I love that they seem to represent the characters all together and that they also seem to really introduce you to each characters personality. A great example of this is Fairy Tail.

In the opening you start out seeing Natsu, then it shows Lucy, the Grey, then Ezra. Almost the exact order that you are shown and introduced to them in the show. What I really love though is the music. Infact I listen to this song all the time when I am writing. I have a few of them (500 or about that, LOL) that a friend gave me.
I find that when I look up the words to the openings, then translate them into English. They don’t make as much sense and also they are all love songs. Or so it seems to be that way with the songs that I like and listen to most often.
Here is the Fairy Tail Opening in English:

Check out both and see what I mean. It sounds cooler in Japanese. Also really take a look at the art, the openings of each and every anime is vastly different and also they change throughout the shows. So pay attention.
