Frankly no other song would do it justice. Two, while electronicore may be a polarising genre (and that’s putting it politely) Let Me Hear is a fucking beast of a song and fits the vibe of Parasyte perfectly. One, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is the best band name ever. Let Me Hear – Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas from Parasyte – The Maxim Not to mention that the beautiful animation renders two characters sitting and talking a work of art. Every major player gets their moment to show their worth in this opening, a testament to how well the show’s written. It’s uplifting, dramatic, and moving.Įmiya Shirou was always a character whose beliefs were trampled in the dirt, but it’s here they make it clear that his iron will won’t bend to anyone, not even to his own doomed future. If the show’s first opening was about having a dream, then Brave Shine represents the moment the dream is realised.
Strap on a good pair of cans and you can FEEL the vibrato in the chorus. The vocals on this track is a 15 out of 10.
( Full Version)īrave Shine – Aimer from Fate / Stay Night: Unlimited Blade WorksĪ personal favourite for this anime lover, Brave Shine was the second opening for the UBW series and is one of the most epic soundtracks of all time. Given our main character is a teenage boy (it always is) it’s a perfect fit.
Yes there is a sense of goofy fun to the track, but that drama and dread is still there. The choral opening lures you, and the horns and bongos keep the very 90s sentiments in place. It’s emotionally complex, not to mention it deals with some pretty heavy themes of mortality, violence, war and borrows plenty of various religious imagery from Kabbalah, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, and Shinto. And trust us, repeated watching is a must.Įvangelion is one of the greatest and most influential anime out there. While to the lay man Zankoku na Tenshi no Thesis may not feel like the right fit for an anime about fighting giant monsters with giant robots, the bigger sense of moral and emotional struggles that weigh on our main cast make sense the more you watch. Zankoku na Tenshi no Thesis – Yoko Takahashi from Neon Genesis EvangelionĪs the pinnacle of Gundam anime, Neon Genesis Evangelion deserves an appropriately iconic soundtrack. Coupled with the simple animation and spectacular fight sequences, again will have you pumped up for plenty of alchemy related throw downs. The sense of tragedy and determination that spurs on the brothers Elric comes across quite well in her voice, not to mention that when the action ramps up the music takes a similarly dramatic turn. She’s a gifted, popular songwriter and this one has proven to be one of her most popular tracks. What can be agreed upon is that both series had some pretty epic music, but again by Yui edges the others out. There are a lot of arguments over which is better, Fullmetal Alchemist or the manga friendly version Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.
