I’m glad Dragon goes House-Hunting’s OP made it on the list. Love the ED too!

Totally agree about blizzard. I’ve also had the song on repeat. Not surprised ODDTAXI’s OP made it in the list. The song and visuals are stellar!

I’m probably in the minority who likes iruma-kun season 2 OP...

It's a good list with a strong first choice. My favorite this season is easily Everybody! Everybody! which ranked 8th here. I haven't heard an instant earworm like that since Onegai Muscle and Magical Babyrinth in 2019. It's danceable as heck too. If someone told me it actually *was* a lost DDR track, I would believe it.

An OP I like that didn't make this list is Blessing by Aira Yūki. It really fits the soothing atmosphere of The Saint's Magic Power Is Omnipotent.

No Vivy on this list? It's probably the best opening of the season, if not in the top 10

No love for To Your Eternity and Mars Red's openings at all?

I kept skimming this list afraid your skipped the Op of Snow White Notes only to happily see it is No 1. It’s gorgeous opening befitting for a series centered on music

I also quite like the Shadow House opening so I was happy to see that make the list as well.

Happy to see Blizzard at the top spot! I would have been shocked if it didn’t make the list.

To be fair though, Vivy's main OP doesn't appear until like episode 4, so unless they were actively watching Vivy it could easily have been missed OP.

I do hope they release the soundtrack for Vivy.

Sad to see Cry Baby so low. I'm glad it made the list but I wish it was at least a bit higher.
Ali though...I feel like it's unfair to have that on the list when it's not even the opening and it's hard...er to find. Also I listened to it and I feel the placement for that is way too high but I'm also not a huge fan of Ali.
One last thing, not that anyone's reading this anyway, I love Blizzard but even I'm not sure it should be that high. Top 3 sure, but number 1....ehh.
