Every Anime Opening Ever Made

No it's not every anime opening ever, it's just a title.

It's always amused me the repeated imagery that exist in anime opening credit sequences. This video doesn't cover them all, but it has a lot of the big ones. Interesting thing I learned, if a character is running it's overwhelmingly to the left of the screen.

I first started thinking about this years ago when I saw the X-Men intro that they made in Japan to replace the American one. The part that especially hit home was Wolverine, and Cyclops standing on some nondescript land mass.

For this I used only textless credits I found on Youtube (with the exception of Evangelion). So if your favorite anime isn't in here either there was no textless version, the clip quality was bad, or it had a pretty unique opening sequence.

Here's the complete list of what anime made it into this.

@fabyooos I know RIGHT?? If only I put something in the description qualifying my use of the word "every."

2:07 the X-men? Did they have an anime?

[kickintheheadcomic]

@stowrag When the American X-Men show from the 90s was shown in Japan they decided that the opening wasn't interesting enough so they made new intro sequences for the show which were decidedly more awesome. They were of course full of lots of anime opening tropes. Just search for them on YouTube 'cause they're awesome!

@XxKillerProzxX Video descriptions can be amazingly helpful in these situations. And you don't even have to click the "show more" button! ^_^

1:04 - 1:05 is Chrono (Chrno) Crusade. Not sure about 1:12, however.
