We're going to make this a weekly mini-contest where we ask something related to Anime. Read the rules carefully.
Rules:
- Comment your answer to the weekly question to this post as an entry.
- Must be in English but you can attach a section for a different language too as long as there is an English section that conveys the same thought.
- No need to make a post about the contest or use a specific tag for your post. You can still post about this but it serves no purpose in picking a winner.
- Tag someone who you think might be interested in joining (optional) but if that person participates in the event, there's a bonus reward IF either of you wins. In cases where multiple users tag the same person, we'll count only the user that mentioned that person first as evidenced by the time stamp on the blockchain.
- Comments must be below 4 sentences for the actual entry. There's no need to comment 4 sentences for an entry, it's just a max number to avoid the entries becoming long form posts. If you have conversations in the comment section, make sure it's done on a separate comment/reply section.
- Response must not be AI generated. While this can sometimes be a challenge to detect and prove, it's not worth trying because you're being asked to share in your own words.
- Only 1 winner will be picked. Criteria for judging will not be disclosed but the closest hint available is: put some thought into your answer within the limited number of sentences available.
Notes: Think less of this as a contest and more of an avenue to share your thoughts and get more exposure within the community. We'll adapt the mechanics of the contest depending on the outcome of the previous contests so expect rules can change in the future.
Prize: The winner will receive 2 Hive.
If you won and tagged another user that participated in the mini-contest, you get 3 Hive and the other person you tagged gets 1 Hive.
If the person you tagged won, they get 3 Hive and you get 1 Hive for tagging them along.
Announcement of the winner will be included in the succeeding Ask Anime Post. If there are any questions regarding the rules, don't hesitate to ask.
Ask Anime Question of the Week:
You can share an embedded Youtube video for your entry (OPTIONAL) so that it's easier to find and listen to. We only need 1 from your list of favorites and it doesn't matter what genre, date released, or composer, all that matters is that it's one of your favorites and you can tell us why.
Announcing the Winner for Anime Realm Contest The Anime Realm Contest #2: Recommend Me Something To Watch/Read This Holiday
♦️An anime recommendation: Why you should watch 91 days by @mandysmoon won 5 Hive
I can only say that if you want to see something short, entertaining and very well made this holiday season, 91 days is a great option. It really is an anime that deserves greater recognition for its quality as well as for dealing with a topic that, although common in Hollywood, is very rare in anime. Furthermore, even in their animation style you can see that they made an effort to create a good story, taking care of details and providing a good result.
Will be sending out the prize soon.
If you want to check out the server, here's a link to the Anime Realm Discord. There's a channel for house rules of the server, read those first.
Well, there’s one which always have been my favourite. I hope you will also get goosebumps like me. I don’t speak or understand Japanese still this song got my heart 🫶🏻.
Tokyo Ghoul - Unravel
I would like to invite @cyclopshive to be a part of this awesome contest and share his favourite one.
This song is simply great! The high tones the singer reaches are out of this world. Thanks for sharing your favorite opening!
In my case my favorite opening is the first one of the Hades saga of Saint Seiya. The name of the opening is "Chikyuugi" and the combination of scenes from the anime and the singer's voice always move my soul and for me it is impossible to listen to it just once. I really feel that they chose this song very well for being the entrance to one of the most powerful and amazing sagas of this classic anime. Here I leave you the link so you can enjoy it.
I take this opportunity to invite @aibi93.
You have touched my heart with this song, it brings back memories of a very nice time in my life, also, the animation of hades saga was a very important event for Saint Seiya fans.
Thank you for participating!
Thank you for the invitation @n4nd0
I am in love with the opening of the anime, The Diaries of an Apothecary. For me it is one of the best and my favorite, because its music transmits strength, passion, energy and a lot of character as its protagonist. Besides, the singer's voice has a lot of personality!🌺🥀🌹🪷
Every time, I hear the song of this openning, "Hana ni Natte" my body starts to move automatically! Hehe 😜
I invite @n4nd0 to participate.
I've never heard this one before, but wow is it good. The chorus in particular has a catchy beat.
Thanks for participating, hope to see you again soon.
I have many favorite Openings song but if I had to choose one I would take Osama Ranking op 2. I feel it goes very much in line with the story, as if the protagonist himself had written his lyrics, it's very encouraging and emotional so every time I watched a chapter I couldn't skip it. Even the op's animations look very epic to me. All these elements made me connect and get hooked with the story, which I think is essential to love Opening😊✨.
I would like to invite my friend @emilydbr to participate 💖😉
You have explained very well the reasons why you like this opening, great! The song is very good, it has an exceptional chorus.
Thanks for sharing your favorite opening. Regards!
I think my favorite song for 2023 is Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 OP/Opening 2 - SPECIALZ. The beats seem fitting for the massacre, err, storyline.
@jijisaurart @japex1226 Let me know yours!
Oh gosh, there's a lot in my head. 😅 But currently I am listening to "Fiction" by Sumika.
Hirari hirari mekuri mekuru
Sutoorii sutoorii ✨
!PIZZA
I also super like this! Been playing this song everyday since I heard it 😅
Did you watch the original music video? :D
Of course of course!!! hahahahaha
Yeah this is pretty good.

For this week question which I think is amazing, I had a hard time choosing just one but I decided to choose The Rumbling from Attack on Titans.
I am a metalhead so to hear such a cool heavy song as an opening was a great experience.
I want to invite my dear friend @elbuhito to participate and share with us her favorite opening 💕
This song really rumbled in our ears and hearts in the final season of SNK. It's great 🤘!
Thank you for inviting me friend, and congratulations for winning the contest 😍❤️
Thank you so much, my dear friend 💓
One of my favorites openings is the opening from Captain Harlock. I like it not only for the nostalgy of my childhood, but because it's an amazing song that stands the test of time. The song is called Uchuu Kaizoku Captain Harlock and sang by Masaaki Hirao. Check this out @rosmiapure!
Captain Harlock is an icon in the world of anime, I think its story is very revolutionary and inspirational. I understand perfectly why you like this song.
Thank you for participating!
Well, I was actually thinking of mentioning the second opening of Osama Ranking as my first choice, but as it has already been mentioned, I'll go with the second opening of Summertime Render, which contrasts a lot with the first opening, because here we know who the enemy is and the main characters will do everything they can to stop them.
What a good song, this one really surprised me. Nice openings keep appearing. Thanks for sharing!
Unrelated, but I like the 1st op version of the garage band better.
For this weekly mini-contest, I chose the OP of the anime Violet Evergarden because I'm a cheesy person and I always love romantic songs, and this one has it.
Besides its violin version was the one that made me fall in love with the instrument and I owe my decision to study violin to this song ❤️
I want to invite to participate to @promete0sz 😊
Ok, from what you say this is more than a song, it made you decide to learn to play the violin and that's quite something.
Thanks for participating!
What a sublime song and the lyrics are simply beautiful, plus the video has an unbeatable quality.
Now, I understand why you fell in love with the violin and decided to study this instrument, @elbuhito.🥰
This song is very beautiful and sentimental, it always makes my skin crawl when I listen to it 😍
This song and this cover made me decide to study violin ❤️ it's special, I would like to play it someday 😍
Mine is called Departure from HxH. I don't know why i like it that much, i think it kind of motivates me besides the fact that i like it as a song ofc!
This is one of the songs that fans love the most, so it makes perfect sense that you would like it. HxH is great! Cheers!
hi how are things? I wanted to participate by commenting on my favorite opening. That's opening 1 of Shingeki no Kyojin. It's epic, it makes me want to go kill titans haha the melody is great, encouraging. In general I like all the openings of this anime but this one more... and I like the synchronicity with the others since it becomes more and more apocalyptic. It's hard for me to choose between all the snk openings but I choose this one because it is iconic of the anime. I invite @elbuhito to participate.
This song its sooooooo good, definitely AOT has many masterpieces
I agree with you 😄
Buhito already participate but thanks for the invitation hehe TATAKAEEEE!!!
Tatakaeeeeeeeeeee tatakaeee
Since no one mentioned it yet, I chose Oshi no Ko's opening, Idol. I really like the visuals, and how the full version of the opening tells the full story of the first episode:
I don't know who to invite to this, maybe @intishar?
The anime is looking interesting.
By the way, is it any kind of contest??
Yeah, it seems a kind of contest.
Heeeyy I mentioned it in my comment 😄
But yessss to Oshi No Ko's opening! I super love it! Yoasobi's the best!
Its a masterpiece
I'm so sorry, but this performance was epic
https://fb.watch/pnn8yUihks/?mibextid=Nif5oz
My favorite will always be Unravel by Tokyo ghoul.
The passion and emotions felt through the song well accompanied the general feel of the anime and the turmoil inside Kaneki.
Plus it's a rad song to scream out and sing along to when it's playing 😂😂😂
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7aMOurgDB-o
I'mma tag @deraaa and @ahmadmanga
Aaaahhhh the classic! I also like this song! My favorite Ado sang this song too and her version also hits differently! You should listen to her live version of the song 😉
Oooh
I will
The classic of the classics, this song is a masterpiece
Right??!!
Has to be the best anime theme song out there!!!
Thank you so much!!! 💓. I'm really enjoying being a part of this nice community, I hope it keeps growing with amazing content
It is a pleasure to receive quality content in the community. See you soon!
Hello! What a great question! There are so many masterpieces that it is very difficult to choose just one oppening, however, I pay tribute to the first anime that completely captivated me as a child: Saint Seiya. I remember I asked for Fenix's Ikki armor for my birthday 😆. And that this anime taught me about effort, bravery at all times... and hope. To this day I listen to this music and my cosmos rises!🌌🪐💫
Have a beautiful weekend!
This song definitely should be in the hall of fame of anime opening songs 😉.
Thank you for your participation!
Definitely is a very difficult question! Good choice
I recently watched this anime on Netflix, it's called "Cyberpunk" and I must say I absolutely loved it, its opening, it reminded me of how sweet and futuristic the LIGHTS songs sounded back in the day. And even though the anime didn't have a happy ending, I feel like the song does connect with the main character and the story.
@niggyayo, join and participate!
My favorite opening without a doubt is the one from the first season of pokemon called "Atrápalos ya" (in spanish). It reminds me of my childhood and it gives me a great nostalgia to see how that child inside me still remembers every word of that song, even though more than 20 years have passed, its melody fills me with melancholy.
I want to invite to participate to @victorcstillo
Oh god, this is one of my favorite themes in the world, it was very difficult to decide for just one since I don't usually have just one thing as a favorite, but I think the one I could identify with the most is Diver from NICO Touches the Walls, opening 8 of Naruto Shippuden.
I like to listen to it often and I can identify a little with this song, many times I have felt that I am in a very deep well and I can not get out, I feel I have no strength to breathe, it is very good, listen to it and if you can, look for the translation. I love to participate in this kind of things.
Kuusou Rumba.
ikaw @wittyzell ?
Hhahahahaha when you recommended this, I skipped the opening song LOL now i’m listening
hahahahahha
dyan na daw yan.
hahahahha epic talaga tong anime na to
Oo. naawa ako dun sa fansub(a.f.k.) na nag sub nito in its entirely nung araw.
After much contemplation and revisiting beloved openings, something clicked in my mind, and I recalled a masterpiece that undoubtedly stands as my favorite and one of the best openings I've ever experienced. Even without lyrics, it captivates with its fantastic melody. I'm referring to "Tank," composed by Yoko Kanno for the acclaimed series Cowboy Bebop. This theme is simply fantastic, evoking emotion and featuring a mix of rhythms uncommon in typical openings. It's a magnificent composition for an extraordinary anime.
Before I say goodbye, I invite @EliudGnzlz to participate! 😊
It is difficult, because... I'm not much of a listener of anime opening songs hahahaha, but let's do it. ❤️
So many good anime intro's and outro's out there. However, I only know really old anime titles so the music may not have aged well by today's standards. I really enjoy Megumi Hayashibara as both voice actress and singer. Watashi no Happy Birthday from Nuku-Nuku I enjoyed. Intro to Video Girl AI. Ending from Dragon Half. However, since I have to limit this to one intro I'll go with:
Give a Reason by Megumi Hayashibara from Slayers Next

While I have many favorites (LiSA, Yui, etc), my favorite for 2023 and still today would be Idol (アイドル) from Yoasobi. I like its beat and the lyrics - it’s so fitting to my favorite anime: Oshi No Ko.
@jude.villarta i’m sure you have something to say so join now!
This song is pure joy, I don't really understand the lyrics, but I guess it just says nice things. The rhythm is a lot of fun. 🎼😎
The flow of the song I think coincides with the flow of the anime. 😉
Idol lives in my mind rent-free
@mandysmoon congratulations for winning this second community contest, well deserved, the truth is that your review was great, a well crafted post, plus you presented a very interesting anime.
On the other hand, how nice this new contest about our favorite openings, the truth is that I'm not an expert in anime music, but I'll try to participate, I have some in mind, I'll have to make a decision. Good luck to all the participants.
Greetings.
Thank you so much! I did my best to present a nice recommendation for everyone :3
It was used for Bleach's Opening and rocks! 🤘
Rolling star by Yui.
Yui is one of the best!
FTW! nanonood ka din ba ng mga concerts like them jan sa inyo? hehe
How I wish! I want to, but I’m not so alert in checking schedules so I’d always know about it when the ticket sales are sold out or concert’s finished LOL
Want to change that, 2024 concert year! 🥳
Nice yan! mag mario kart ka na din sa japan! hehe!
How not to remember this song? Bleach is still beating in our hearts.
