This is the moment I have been waiting for! 😎

Days ago I did a review on the new Netflix anime called "Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf" and which has a very striking intro theme song that goes very much in line with what the anime is all about.

The song is called "FIGHT & PRIDE" and the band that performs it are called "AA=". In this musical theme you can notice the influence of the metal of the 90's, I mean the beginning of that decade and the end where the Nu-Metal emerged.

The song is extremely strong and shocking, it is like a blow to the face and there is no doubt that it is as good as the anime.

That band is also in charge of the closing theme song, which has a nostalgic, but strong tone that has a lot of importance for the story.

I leave you to listen to the intro of the Garouden anime.

Love that nu metal sound when the beat kicks in. I can get into the lone wolf vibe, looks like my kind of Anime. Will check it out on Netflix.

It's a very good anime, it's not just fights, there's some drama in the story that makes it better.

I want to joinnnnnn! So I'll put three of my favorite songs here with a cheery beat and of course message. I know these songs as a lively music base only with the melody, but upon searching about their english translation today, ehermmm - whoa, they all have a really "cheer up" kind of meaning except one, so here we go:

  1. Alive by Raiko, it is one of Naruto's, I'm sure y'all heard this already. I really love this song because of the beat.

  1. I'm a Believer by spyair, and it's from Haikyuu! Ehermm @tegoshei I'm sure you know this one, ehe.

  1. Lastly, Bling-Bang-Bang-Born by Creep Nuts, nevermind the lyrics, but seriously, i never skip this part when watching season two of Mashle: Magic and Muscles. Like I have to headbang while listening to it while dancing on it's groove. It's like a little pause lang, it's soooooo good 😆✨.

Thanks all 👏💓✨.

Nice one @ruffatotmeee! These are definitely good recommendations.
I have forgotten about SpyAir's I'm A Believer and indeed, it made my mood brighten up.
And of course, who could have forgotten Bling Bang Bang Born. Nonsense lyrics but it's just fun. Did you know it's been on the top charts for weeks now of Japan's spotify?

One of my favorite anime songs is FIRE GROUND by Official髭男dism. It was the opening song of Hinomaruzumou and it's one of the OP that I never skipped. It's super catchy and the lyrics is so motivating. (Turn on CC... hahaha)



VIDEO SOURCE


Higedan wasn't that famous back in 2018, but I've been playing the song on repeat and became their fan. Then, they became really huge in Japan after releasing "Pretender" in 2019. Still, FIRE GROUND remains one my faves alongside Cry Baby.

let me share one that i am currently enjoying, have you guys heard of kaiju no. 8? the main lead is just so relatable in the sense that he is in his 30's but has a passion usually fit for the young.

1000023386.jpg

the music i'm sharing is the ending; who would have thought that this day would come when one republic would be singing for an anime? nobody is a song which boosts your spirit and be extatic to know that someone is always there to support you.

video link

when you need somebody to turn to,
nobody got you the way i do...

There can be only one and that is the German anime tune Vogel im Käfig .. I love this version and video

However this version is very uplifting for me and good to see it back online after being oppressed by the copyright police (wrongly) for singing their own version.

I find it very uplifting and feeling in a good vibe. I also like the uniqueness of ot being a tune in german and sounding awesome!

When it comes to songs that will uplift mood, I will really recommend Go by Flow (Naruto Shonen Jump op)

Go

We are Fighting Dreamers Aiming high
Fighting Dreamers Without caring about appearances
Fighting Dreamers Believing as we are
Oli Oli Oli Oh-! Just go my way!

Next is Hero’s Comeback (Naruto Shippuden op)

Hero's Comeback

The rising cheers will become your courage
So stand up now, no matter how much pain you feel
But in the end I’m sure you’ll laugh
Everything will be swept away in victory and cheer

Lastly, Departure (Hunter x Hunter op)

Departure

You can smile again.
Bask in the sun.
You can fly away.
The world is waiting for you to shine.

The lyrics and beat of these songs were really uplifting, and somehow they bring a nice nostalgic feeling to me especially those Naruto ops.. ohhh good old days (⁠ ⁠;⁠∀⁠;⁠).

My favorite anime band for several years, RAS from the anime and video game Bang Dream and the first time I heard this song with its music video was a boom, I love the voice of the singer and also the melody is very energizing 😂

As a DJ I would put this song on top to lift the spirits 👀

This may be one of the anime soundtracks or openings that is not very well known like most of the comments here, but I like it and the music is upbeat but has a dark and gloomy feel with cool lyrics in my opinion. This is the 10th opening of the Black Clover anime performed by Vickeblanka, entitled Black Cathcer. Previously, Vickeblanka was successful with the 3rd Black Clover opening song entitled Black Rover. One of the lyrics that sticks in my mind is "Lets' Dye this world even I can't grab this sword, All I need is getting strong, we can catch the game."

This is an interesting contest and it feels good to be able to share anime tracks that I like. Thanks @wittyzell

Oh, i don't have this but I have lots of Black Clover songs in my phone. Its really has a lively beat, why I didn't know about this, haha, I think I only focus on ending songs a lot more than the opening, lol. I have Black Rover, Guess Who is Back and Four. Those are a good song from that series.

Nice recommendation! I've watched Black Clover but I don't remember this song. Probably because I've watched it from a long time ago (that's an exaggeration 😅). Cool song and lyrics, just the right amount of dark.

Sometimes I skip the OST 😅 but sometimes I don't because you can find actual gold in the songs. I'll give a few examples:

Tokyo Ghoul

Naruto

Bleach

Birdy the Mighty: Decode is in my top 25 Anime list. It's a remake of a 70s gender swap war drama action series but this remake is a lot more bubbly overall. This song feels like it's from the 90s and I adore it for that. Kind of reminds me a bit of some of Stereopony's and Scandal's Anime OPs from the early to mid 2000s

Thank you for the recommendation. The song seems nice! Upbeat but not too much, and its melody seems familiar. I haven't heard of the anime, by the way. Good to know, I'll probably add it to my watch list.

Most people hadn’t. It was one of A1 Picture’s “budget” titles that didn’t get much marketing outside of its core manga fan base. It’s also most known for being the Anime that Zak Snyder ripped off in Man of Steel for the ending (wish I was joking but the entire series finale shot for shot was exactly the same as in that film but came out almost 10 years earlier). 😹
