I skip most unless it is Kurosaki Maon, Kawada Mami or fripSide the I never skip them. I try to watch the Op for Clannad After Story but it makes me cry so I skip it.

Pretty much the same. I've heard the BL opening so much I have it memorized lol. I typically like more upbeat and/or faster paced songs for OP's and more laid back ones for the end. Which generally happens anyways. For those I love, like Black Lagoon, Rage of Bahamut Genesis, Death Parade, etc I crank up the volume. |

YASSSS. I'm an absolute SUCKER for openings like this I love to blast it out the window of my car and sing along at the top of my lungs. (don't worry; I'm a good singer lmao xD made it to the finals in a convention idol contest) That one's so fun because she switches back and forth from Engrish to Japanese several times; it can be a bit of a challenge if you're not fluent. 
This one is also amazing. I'd like to say "best of 2014"....but it's also the best OP a shoujo series has had in decades. Sailor Moon Crystal AIN'T GOT NOTHING ON THAT. Gimme more of THOSE. |

I usually go find the full version of the openings I really like and then listen to it over and over again until I get tired of it for a while. I can like a lot of different songs, but I guess I prefer some kind of J-pop or J-rock thing. Like most of Mami Kawada's Shakugan no Shana openings. Gunbuster 2's opening is among my favourites, along with dozens of others. I can like some of those catchy songs too like Macross Delta's 1st ending, some slow ones like Fullmetal Alchemist's 2nd ending.
Since I started watching anime at a fairly delicate age of something like 14, I kinda brainwashed myself into liking Japanese music. A lot of the music I listen are probably anime openings and endings, unless I bother to try and find some good alternative rock music to listen to, but going through dozens of songs just to find one good one is usually too much work. |

If we are talking about the sort of upbeat opening songs that get the volume turned up I have a few.
One of the best is one of the earliest I saw. Konya Wa Hurricane from Bubble Gum Crisis. Also from early show there is Through the Night from Outlaw Star. For something a bit weirder but still up beat I offer the opening from Ghost Hound or Yellow Vacation the opening from Paniponi Dash. If you want something current, I'm kind of partial to the opening from We Rent Tsukumogami. |

I miss when One Piece used to have ED songs. I watched One Piece back in the days where the only way to watch the new episodes were through fansubs, complete with Karaoke Subtitles. The Alabasta arc ED with Vivi wandering the desert, likely fearful of the destructive civil war to come, only to be comforted by the presence of the Straw Hat Pirates, was easily my favorite. So yeah, I always listen to OP and EDs more than once.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsEg3Y73W1g Not to mention, my favorite OP, Fight Together, is impossible to find on YouTube without the pitch being changed. A real shame. The part where it shows every Straw Hat Pirate's most powerful moment with Luffy still brings a tear to my eye. |

I also missed endings in One Piece when I still watched that show. I think my favourite is Dreamship.

Oh Lord. That one is underrated as heck! I love how it shows all the Straw Hats brushing their teeth in their pajamas, each one showing a personality trait unique to them, especially Luffy who is eating fish instead of brushing his teeth. I especially love how each Straw Hat's quirk (Luffy's appetite, Zoro's laziness and love for taking naps, Nami's money fetish, Usopp's goofiness, Sanji's girl-craziness, Chopper's anxiety, and Robin's... enigmatic behavior), but at the end, Robin gives a genuine smile. It shows that she's starting to view them as more than just a convenience. Certainly sets up the emotional payoff of the CP9 saga well.

Depends, if the song is epic. I will do it.
Example: Lillium (Elfen Lied) Again - Yui (FMA Brotherhood) And so I got alot more Anime's with a epic op/end. Otherwise I will skip it. I will skip it too if the Anime is in a epic battle or something. Then I will skip it too. |

I'll watch any new opening once and skip it after that, unless I really dig the song then I watch it for every episode.
I usually just let the endings play through in the background nowadays and switch tabs to do something else, because a lot of shows have after credits scenes. |
