I really enjoyed the opening theme to the first season of Major. The animation they put to gether for the intro goes great with it.

That would be Kokoro e, by Road of Major.

The opening theme to Utawarerumono is pretty catchy too. ^_~

Best overall:

Ghost in the Shell: SAC (first season) Inner Universe. Actually, the opening of the 2nd season is excellent too.

OK song that I can't get out of my head:

His & Hers Circumstances (You May Dream...)
Whatever the opening is for Galaxy Angel.

Cowboy Bebop:The real folk Blues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Full metal alchemist:Kensai Tsumi(ineraseble sin)

Full Metal Alchemist:Rewrite

Rurouni Kenshin:Heart of the Sword

Full Metal Alchemist:Ready Steady Go!!!


My personal favorite is the real folk blues, i'm learning how to play it on the piano, but it's hard!(heh)

Sakura Taisen (Geki! Teikoku Kagekidan)
Last Exile(Cloud Age Symphony - OP)(Over the Sky)
Kodocha(1st/2nd OPs)
ROD the TV (Instrumental)
Master Keaton(OP)(love the European feel of the tune)

Oh, and I totally dig the Lupin III (78') theme... nice and sentimentally jazzy.

Oh i forgot D.N.Angels opener

i think bleach's first opening *~Asterisk~ is good (the full version is weird)

but as far as theme songs go, including the visuals, bleach's 3rd opening ichirin no hana is pretty darn cool

Best Ending
Naruto season 1, Wind by Akaboshi

yes. I forgot to mention Wind. that's an awesome song.

My favorite ending songs are the one from .hack//Sign and the original Japanese ending for Rurouni Kenshin. My favorite opening songs are Full Metal Alchemist (about volume no. 6 on) and ....... well....... the Japanese opener for Medabots. WHAT?!?!?! >.>

I don't really have a favorite opening, but my favorite ending is "Lithium Flower" from Stand Alone Complex. And now that I think about it, that's the only part of the show I enjoyed.

My favorite opening themes are "Free Bird" from Haibane Renmei and "Ready Steady Go" from Fullmetal Alchemist.

As for an ending theme, I really like "To the Other Side of the Door" from FMA.

For me its' gotta be:

Rurouni Kenshin
Trigun
Gundam Wing
Gundam Seed (2nd season opener)
Robotech (technically a rehash of three anime series into one)
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
Superbook
The Flying House
(technically, as I discovered, the above two DO qualify as anime because they were both created in Japan for Japan, despite the fact that an American company initiated the creation)
Tsubasa
I THINK Buso Renkin
Samurai Champloo
Cowboy Bebop
Fullmetal Alchemist

S-cry-ed opening
Vandread opening
Paronia agent opening
Berserk opening
outlaw star opening and 1st ending
Project arms 1st opening
Tekkan ending
FLCL ending
FinalFantasy unlimited 1st ending
Tenchi muyo ending
Dragon ball opening
Samarai champloo ending
Fatal Fury the motion picture ending
angel link ending
Soul taker opening
Record of Lodass wars OVA ending
Last exile final episode ending
Those who hunt elves opening
Betterman ending
wolfs rain ending
Steal angel Kurumi ending

I don't have a solid favorite, really. XD there are too many I like. Among them being:

OP:
- Tsuki no Curse from Loveless
- Secret World from Tactics
- Innocent Sorrow from D.Gray-man
- Season's Call from Blood+
- Obsession from .hack//SIGN

ED:
- The Real Folk Blues from Cowboy Bebop
- Believe in Heaven from Matantei Loki Ragnarok
- Changin' from GetBackers
- Wind from Naruto

Opening:

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Cruel Angel's Thesis
Ghost in the Shell: Stand alone complex : Inner Universe
Blood+ : Aozora no Namida
Serial Experiments Lain: Duvet
Bleach: Asterisk

Closing:

Naruto: Wind
D Grey Man: Snow Kiss
Red Garden: Both closings. I think the J-rock really hits the spot at the end of any given episode.

I would also like to give special mention to the entire soundtrack from .hack//sign. It's absolutely fantastic.

i have so many favorite opening/ending themes i dont think i could just pick one. but here are some

asterisk--bleach
modoku wings--trinity blood

to the other side of the door--FMA
The Gokusen ending 1 (dont know what its called)
anywyas i have a ton more than that but i really dont want to take the time to put them all down ;p

Rurouni Kenshins's- Heart of Sword, 4th Avenue Cafe (I think that's the name) 1/3, 1/2, and many more XD

Ouran High School Host club's- Sakura Kiss and Shishou(sp)

FMA-All of them XD

Bleach-All of them so far XD

Wow I am so general aren't I?

*plants a gigantic stamp that says: I Like too many more openings and closings to chooose!!" D:

The ending theme to Kimagure Orange Road is wonderful,and the end animation is nice.

I enjoyed the opening theme to Tales of Phantasia (not sure of the name). The ending theme was okay, but it wasn't one of my favorites.

Shame that nobody mentioned the following:

His and Her Circumstances - The Promise of an Angel
Naruto - Haruka Kanata
Pilot Candidate - Zion! (Aim to the Stars of Your Dreams)
Sorcerer Hunters - What's Up!

(Side note--you have no idea how embarassing it is to look up "Naruto" on Wikipedia at work to find the name of that song!)
