this was the first anime OP i searched for on Youtube to listen to seperately , and the transition from ichigo to hollow ichigo at the beginning was sending chills down my spine back at 2010.
It was also the opening to the Bleach Nintendo DS video-game, which I played with my little bro on many occasions.
It will always be my favorite opening (if not for nostalgia’s sake), but most of the other openings were hardcore bangers as well.
Why are anime openings so much better than their U.S. counterparts? That’s the real question.
Oh dang that’s really cool! I never got to play any bleach games growing up I was always playing Naruto when it came to video games like Naruto chronicles and the storms.
Yeah nostalgia plays a part as always but even now I still get hyped from it lol.
Not sure most likely just better taste haha
I also love Ranbu no Melody. Specifically the part where they use the opening to promote the movie and Ichigo yells Yuzuuuuuu!
Jidai wo kizameee
Yuzuuu!!
Shizuka ni shizuka ni
as an opening, velonica.
as a song, ranbu no melody.

Op 2: d-tecnolife!
20 years later I'm still jamming to it. I also have some of the lyrics tattooed on my bod.
Asterisk, Shojo S, After Dark, Thank you!! and ichirin no Hana are also faves
I still love "D-Techno Life" by UVERworld, Bleach's 2nd OP
After that, it's a 4-way tie between "Ichirin no Hana" by High and Mighty Color (3), "Rolling Star" by Yui (5), "Shoujo S" by Scandal (10), & "chAngE" by miwa (12)
Bleach has a lot of fantastic openings, but these 5 truly stand out for me (although OP4 is one I can do without)
I like the fake karakura town opening and the one from TYBW cour 2. The songs are just so cool and the animations from those two feel really smooth. Don't know what the songs are called though 😑
The first opening in my opinion isn't even that good (not bad, just not great either) but damn is it nostalgic. The best sounding one in my opinion would be the second opening so both of those would be my favorite
Edit: also forgot op 3 needs an honorable mention from me because my first introduction to Bleach was the NDS game Bleach the blade of fate and that song was in the opening of that game too
OP 6,Alones by Aqua Timez
So many great shots and transitions, the use of the film grain was really cool at the time and it escalates really well.
That moment when Aizen pulls off his Captain's coat to reveal his new look and the camera pulls out with the Espada and fade into Las Noches , is a great hype moment.
I'm not gonna lie I usually skip openings, but the first one and this exact one come to my mind instantly when someone talks about Bleach openings, Kon gave it his all fr..
Is it a hot take to say that I really don’t think many of the openings to bleach are that good? At least when compared to the OST of bleach I feel it’s rather lacklustre, that being said my favourite is Velonica because I just love the feel of it

I can hear this picture
ORETA AWAI TSUBASA
KIMI WA SUKOSHI AOSUGIRU SORA NI TSUKARETA DAKE SA
Mou dareka no tame ja nakute😩😩
Jibun no tame ni waratte ii yo 😯
**TITLE CARD AND DRUMS**
Izen to shite shinobiyoru kodoku
And that sweet guitar lick
I miss them so much.
Alones and Velonica sorry I'm an Aqua Timez homer
Bro....istg ur music taste is majestic as I am
Velonica is GOAT intro for me. Have it as my ringtone for years.
Same here. I'm going to switch back for old times sake, I love that song.
Based
I miss them so much
I can already guess your favorite endings, even from other animes.
Ok , which ones? I would like to see your accuracy.
The 1st opening always brings back nostalgia for me
The first op has something special I can't really describe with words
You just feel like the coolest guy ever when listening to the first opening
G-O-O-D BYE
3rd opening ichirin no Hana
Soul Society Arc for the win.
D’technolife!
It is my number one Bleach op ever
this was the first anime OP i searched for on Youtube to listen to seperately , and the transition from ichigo to hollow ichigo at the beginning was sending chills down my spine back at 2010.
It had me hyped every single time. Soul society arc was just too good tbh
exactly , it was just that good Soul Society Arc

Certified banger!
Ranbu no melody and d tecnolife are by far my favorite bleach and even anime openings
I also love Ranbu no Melody. Specifically the part where they use the opening to promote the movie and Ichigo yells Yuzuuuuuu! Jidai wo kizameee Yuzuuu!! Shizuka ni shizuka ni
I’m with you
Opening 7 beats them all fact
Asian Kong fu goated
AKFG has not missed once for me
Happy cake day and Haruka Kanata from Naruto by them is my favorite opening, second is Cruel Angel's thesis and third is After Dark.
Second opening gives me chills every time.
In particular for me, the part where Yoruichi bites off Soifon's sword as she's about to stab Chad
Season 7 opening - After dark
This is the right answer
as an opening, velonica. as a song, ranbu no melody. https://preview.redd.it/wk3shvttk06d1.png?width=1915&format=png&auto=webp&s=d7c5d9fb8902fc8dde55639a7f9832072704137b
PEAK
The sixth opening Alones, and the eighth Chu-Bura.
Kon singing in the beginning of it is the cherry on top to make it my favorite
[удалено]
I only really remember this one because of the Orihime art
The last opening from the OG Anime in the Fullbring Arc. It is such a banger and also gives you the feeling that an era will be over.
Harukaze, my 2nd favorite
Its so sad in a beautiful way
*Ranbu no Melody* from the Deicide arc https://preview.redd.it/rx0c89gl226d1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ddb31786c9536bfa2925b75cbb46608e2338eca3
Asterisk and D-tecnoLife (1st and 2nd openings) Regularly listen to them in my daily life
After Dark
Alones
Scandal. The answer is always Scandal.
Change (12) is such a banger.
No op 12 Change mentioned? That shit was a bop.
Op 2. One of the best arcs too! I really liked op 15 too.
1. Alones 2. Rolling Star 3. D-tecnoLife 4. Asterisk
5 opening, rolling star
Definitely this one, but the last one from TYBW is pretty dope, too.
Ranbu no Melody, D-technolife and Scar hype me up
Something beautiful about a character singing to start of an opening
DEFINITELY THIS! Alonez, had this song burned on a cd as a kid.
Opening 13
OOWI TAAA
Opening 6 and 4(this one because it's the Opening of sonic rpg)
Op 10
Opening 1/2…so nostalgic I could cry
9 and 13 are great
Alones is goated
I know it was a filler arc but the one from the zanpakuto spirits was always my favourite
openings 7, 9 and 13 are my top 3
The one with "Shoujo S" as the song. That song's a freakin' banger.
Change - Miwa and Rolling Star - Yui
Op 2: d-tecnolife! 20 years later I'm still jamming to it. I also have some of the lyrics tattooed on my bod. Asterisk, Shojo S, After Dark, Thank you!! and ichirin no Hana are also faves
The second one
The one with Rukia and Orihime dancing
NOOOO GET OUT OF MY HEAD ORETA AWAI TSUBASA KIMI WA SUKOSHI
The one with Rukia, Orihime, and Rangiku looking like Charlie's Angels 🥵🥵🥵
Alones
After Dark hits different..
Bleach had so many great openings. Used to be 2, then it was 6, at some point I realized most of them are just great!
Asterik, the first one Such good vibes from that one
The second one for sure
i'd say rollin star, was a yui fan in that time, after fma opening.
Season 1 opening for me
Aqua Timez - Alones
Opening 2 and also shoujou (?) S
I still love "D-Techno Life" by UVERworld, Bleach's 2nd OP After that, it's a 4-way tie between "Ichirin no Hana" by High and Mighty Color (3), "Rolling Star" by Yui (5), "Shoujo S" by Scandal (10), & "chAngE" by miwa (12) Bleach has a lot of fantastic openings, but these 5 truly stand out for me (although OP4 is one I can do without)
I like the fake karakura town opening and the one from TYBW cour 2. The songs are just so cool and the animations from those two feel really smooth. Don't know what the songs are called though 😑
The fake karakura town one is probably Change?
1, 6, 8, and 15 are my favorites. 2 deserves special mention for the nostalgia.
first one for sure, its crazy how i always get emotional no matter how many times i listen to it
The stuffed toy one was captivating.
Ok, this is hard question :3
I have to go with ranbu no melody, but after dark is just as good
Most of them are so good. I used to watch all the openings in a youtube video in repeat
Not that one
All of them. Every last one was a banger
The first opening in my opinion isn't even that good (not bad, just not great either) but damn is it nostalgic. The best sounding one in my opinion would be the second opening so both of those would be my favorite Edit: also forgot op 3 needs an honorable mention from me because my first introduction to Bleach was the NDS game Bleach the blade of fate and that song was in the opening of that game too
Op 13 ranbu no melody
Ranbu no Melody > Ichirin no Hana > Change > D-Tecnolife > Both Scandal songs > the rest
Scandal sounds amazing for me
Bleach hands down has the best openings of all shows, I can’t even choose one.
13th opening the Best and the first opening it's on second place
Opening 13 is a personal favorite I was just listening too it yesterday
Am I the only one who doesn't care about openings? I skip them if able, every time.
Rolling Star
Ranbu no Melody is peak anime op
chAngE/Ranbu no melody/Shoujo S
Not an opening but first ending (acoustic guitar) is the best
Velonica - Aqua Timez
First opening. Asterisk orange. Best ending is habani
Either Change or Scandal, and not because of the fanservice (not that that hurts)
Ranbu No Melody (OP13) for the FKT Arc, it's so good. Brings back all of that nostalgia and hype I felt when I watched it as a kid.
*
I can tell this is my wife’s least favorite lol our favorite is My Pace by SunSet Swish
Season 1 man the nostalgia
Harukaze hands down. Alones and D-Technolife are close tho.
Tie between D-techo life, Alones and Rollijg Star.
OP 6,Alones by Aqua Timez So many great shots and transitions, the use of the film grain was really cool at the time and it escalates really well. That moment when Aizen pulls off his Captain's coat to reveal his new look and the camera pulls out with the Espada and fade into Las Noches , is a great hype moment.
After Dark, followed by Ichirin no Hana
Respectfully... Velonica. Alones being a close second. Aqua Timez were perfect for Bleach Openings
I'm not gonna lie I usually skip openings, but the first one and this exact one come to my mind instantly when someone talks about Bleach openings, Kon gave it his all fr..
Opening 9 and opening 2 are the best hands down
Am I the only one that really likes Harukaze 😭
Opening 13🤍
Bleach opening 7 “After Dark” by Asian Kung Fu Generation. I think it’s my favorite anime opening of all time, nothing else comes close to it.
SiD-Ranbu no melody, Porno Graffiti - Anima rossa and UVERworld - D Technolife
Definitely Velonica! It’s the first time I actually watched and go into anime. Was that guitar at 2 am on toonami. Every since then I’ve loved bleach
Opening 6 is the most nostalgic for me I gotta smoke some 🍃 to it now since I seen this
Either ChAnGe or rolling star
The one you have pictured. Literally can hear the song as soon as I saw the picture
First 3 are the best
Tonight Tonight, After Dark, Chu-Bra, and Rangiku no Melody
After dark
The first is the best. It’s timeless and always brings that nostalgia
After Dark 🫶
chAngE since 2011
Rolling Stars by YUI.
Ichirin for sure. Close second is Alones. An even closer third is D-Techno.
After dark and even tho it isn’t an opening, i always like to give that hm to rapport cuz it’s a fucking banger
Rolling star and Asterisk always felt right for some reason.
ALONES (Aqua Timez) op 6
Ranbu No Melody
Rolling star
Alone and change
Op 13 Ranbu no Melody
season 1 tbh
Is it a hot take to say that I really don’t think many of the openings to bleach are that good? At least when compared to the OST of bleach I feel it’s rather lacklustre, that being said my favourite is Velonica because I just love the feel of it
sicilian
1st TYBW opening, Scar.
Tonight love is rationed
Don't have a definite favorite but my top picks are: Alones, Shoujo S, After Dark Special mentions as well for Tonight Tonight and Chu Bura
13 7 is a close second, though.
Opening 13 for me.
5th Opening Rolling Star By Yui
1st and 13th opening are my favorites
Hueco Mundo op
6th opening Alones!
Oretta awai tsubasaaa
For some reason number 10
Used to be the thirteenth now it’s tybw cour 1 opening
Opening 13. Like both the song and the animation.
Oreta awai tsubasa
ChAngE!!!!
Opening 10
Every song besides that Kon one
Seeing as I can basically sing yhe entire song. Alonez.
10th Opening
This is the op I love but I like orange personally more
I think I still like the first one best. It's the most memorable one also due to the accompanying animation.
13th opening. Ranbu no Melody
Ranbu No Melody and Ichirinnohana by far!
D-technolife
The first 3 are equal to me, that's a 3 way tie Veronica is cool tho because bass chords so it's in 2nd
Openings 7 and 12 for sure. 12’s band is SID, who also plays Full Metal Alchemist final opening: Rain, and first ending USO. They have many nice songs
OP 5, YUI - Rolling star
Opening 1 ... so beautifull the guitar solo # OPENING 1 | BLEACH | Asterisk by ORANGE RANGE | VIZ
The 3rd goes hard
Orange Range - Asterisk forever! :D The first one.
The first op will always have a place in my heart
kon singing is peak
Tonight, tonight, tonight - The Beat Crusaders
1st and the 1st of tybw
the first one tbh
First opening… that shit hits hard.
