RPGHero's Top Ten Shounen Anime Openings

RPGHero ranks Shounen Anime Openings by a few criteria. Actually the only cred this has is the ranking.
1) How many battles involving main characters and powerful enemies are in the opening? The more of these the higher the rank.
2) Does the opening have to do with the arc that the story is in currently? Closer to what's going on in the show is higher.
3) Do the scenes and the music mesh together so what you are watching/hearing seem like one distinct entity? I.E. you will think that the music was made for the anime and the anime scenes made for the music.
4) Does the opening include main bosses? More main bosses the higher the rank.
5) Do the lyrics correspond to the arc? Closer to the story = higher rank.
6) Does the main character or supporting main characters use high level attacks? I.E. the cooler the attacks shown the higher the rank.
7) Overall Epicness. Enough said.

1. THE WINNER!
Sign - Naruto Shippuuden

THE MOST EPIC!!!
Naruto isn't even the main focus of this opening (Spoilers ahead). Sasuke and Naruto's mentor Jiraiya are the only characters with fights. Sasuke's being the main reason he wanted to be a ninja, to get revenge. Closes a whole climax for the show. Naruto is shown losing control to the beast within him and then gaining control at the end, after his mentor had *gulp* passed, as he cries a single tear. Definitely one of the most epic openings in all of shounen anime. *Did I mention that Jiraiya's toad summon swings and rips part of Pain's summon Cerebus' head right off??

This is dedicated to the King of the English Voice Actors

Or so it seems to be so that Vic Mignogna would have that name.
I'm sure you've heard of him or heard his voice somewhere. He's the main character of many shows

Full Metal Alchemist
and
Kekkaishi

he even started out playing a minor bad guy in Yu Yu Hakusho

that was some time ago...

Now he's even started monopolizing his talent by singing the English translations of anime openings and endings.
He sung the opening of DNAngel - True Light

Does it sound better than the Japanese?


And DB Kai (Yes you have to watch it again ><)

Do you think it lives up to the catch Japanese version?


AND Ouran Host Club!

Vic only did this one for fun, he wrote the lyrics and only sung it for the fans. The official one is sung by another person.

>< He's taking over the otaku world for FUN ><

What about One Piece?

Yes he's taken over one piece!



Need I say more? He's going to rule the Voice Acting world in America!
These videos are probably just the tip of the iceberg!
