Yeah, that's the other Chiaki Ishikawa one I really like. It's one of those themes that you can't imagine anyone would ever skip through (and also probably the least depressing minute and a half of any given Bokurano episode).
Oh, great, you just had to mention "Give Me a Reason." Now that song's going to be stuck in my head until I finally break down and rewatch some Next. I hope you're proud of yourself!

If you take the recency bias out Rinbu Revolution and Butterfly should almost certainly be there. Only My Railgun is quite reasonable if you were around for it, it's pretty much still why Nanjo era fripSide is a big deal.

fripSide no 1, hell yeah. I prefer Level 5 Judgelight but I do have to thank Railgun for introducing me to the band. Other than that though the only ones of these I like are Connect, which is good but not amazing, and the Air opening. Oddly enough, I cannot stand the other Lia song up there. But yeah, a lot of great songs are missing. Cruel Angel, You Get to Burning, the Guilty Crown themes,(in fact, you could probably put any noitamina series opening in here), any Kotoko, Kishida Kyodan, Mami Kawada, Angela, Minori Chihara, etc...

Eternal Blaze is also an odd omission, but maybe Nana songs fought each other for votes too much. |

Love that two Lia songs made the list. Easily my favorite Japanese songstress.

Personally, I think the singer sounds as though he has a cold or is half asleep. The lead vocals are really weak and take away from the energy and power of the instrumentation and chorus. I don't begrudge its place in the list; I'm just answering your question. I find it odd that more people don't think the song would be better without the nasal prepubescent vocals, but each to their own. |

I'm feeling a distinct lack of "Yakusoku wa Iranai" myself.

Don't judge before you watch!! The ToAru series is very good. If you're going to cplain at least watch a couple of episodes.

All of those are horrible choices. Well, except maybe "Guren no Yumiya" and "Only My Railgun".

Although the girls from ClariS are my favorite anime singers, I'm surprised Connect reached second place, I didn' thought it was that popular. Anyway I love that song, is beautiful and it is attached completely to some themes of the anime <3
And great as well for Guren no yumiya! Although it isn't my favorite song, it is part of my second favorite OP of all time. Seriously, Attack on Titan' OP is the most hyping thing ever. |
