Joey doing anime content? No way

That's a rare S-grade item right here. An anime video by Joey

Are you the anime man by any chance

When Joey said there is a certain generation of people that looks back fondly at the mid-2000's as the golden age of anime, he's not joking. Some of us never left this period.

9:19 "Yes, I know I'm old..." *Dies in 1988*

As much as I love Noragami’s op for 2015. Death Parade was robbed. That op was a certified bop

Are you the anime man because you do anime content? Or do you do anime content because you're the anime man?

No. Youre not old. I was born in 1966. Still love anime. I watch these shows to find ones i missed that i want to see

yeah...Joey's never beating the 'hates anything popular' allegations

TheAnimeMan doing Anime content?! This is on the same level as the Pope talking shi about Aliens.

I may be nostalgic but I think Joey is at his best when he makes anime content

"I fucking hate this song" fair enough. everyone has a particular taste. i can take that. "i am not a fan of yoasobi's music" opinion discarded.

It's interesting that anime OPs started with commissioned songs for the shows that tied in to them, but then has since moved away to licensing popular songs. And now, last year, the most popular anime OP was "Idol" by Yoasobi... which was very clearly made for the show

Joey's reaction to "Idol" is what I expected from metal music fans but they mostly enjoyed it LMAO

You can tell this is an old recording when he said he likes the path that oshi no ko is taking 😂

Saint Seiya OP 1 is one of the best OP songs of all time, and the visuals are pretty good too. Should be way more popular than it is.

Angel Beats' opening isn't my favorite opening, but it's the one that makes me the most emotional

Now we need the most popular anime endings of each year

Anison artists are still commissioned for OP and ED. Sure there's more general artists involved now, but songs created especially for anime are definitely still out there.

Jumping onto the subject of Anime Openings that's made for their shows specifically, funny enough, Fairy Tail was one of the last few (but more then likely the last) to do it with their Opening #14, Fairy Tail ~Yakusoku no Hi~ which was made in 2013.

1:26 For mecha fan, Grendizer U will be release in this July. 6:21 Surprisingly, at lot of mecha anime in the early 80s are use as promotional platform for debuting new singer because of Macross influence. For example, the song at the time stamp is Hiroko Moriguchi's debut song. Some people might know her as singer for 1st One Punch Man Ending theme.

The most popular and powerfully weapon in every anime and strong one was "Doraemon Pocket". And 1970 anime "mojacko" was my first anime ever. I was born in December 15 1994.

Joey you need to do more of these dude i just love when you talk about anime openings

Tori no Uta was not a surprise. It was unescapable back then and still sounds amazing until now.

3:33 the original 1981 Urusei Yatsura My favorite anime show ❤ Fumi hirano as Lum and TOSHIO FURUKAWA Darling aka Ataru they are perfect together they show us why we the fan's love Lum and Her Darling aka Ataru in Urusei Yatsura ❤😊

Really cool anime video it's nice to see you branch out into new genres and experiment with your content

Random news reporter doing anime video LETS GOOO

2:55 thats not true? I mean that does happen but most anime songs are commissioned by the studio/producers making the anime to be made for the anime itself I think what joey meant to say is anime songs these days are not just an anime opening but also actual songs that you can listen to without any context or relation to the anime itself

No sound bro

meanwhile the most popular Gundam openings in America is Gundam Wing's "Just Communication" by Two-Mix for the 1st opening and "Rhythm Emotion" also by Two-Mix for the 2nd opening.

Wake up babe, new Joey anime video.

There's absolutely not way Naruto Silhouette by KANA-BOON did not make this list, it's Naruto's anthem and has 291 million views on youtube which is the most I've ever seen a Japanese song.

I think anime songs today are still made specifically for the anime, the only difference is that labels realize they can also sell the songs as singles so they write the lyrics with a subtle reference to the anime. Anisong labels also exist now unlike before. These labels that work tightly with anime productions such as Sony (certain labels under Sony like Sacra Music), Pony Canyon, Kadokawa (idk the name of the label 😅) etc.Like, Creepy Nuts is already a popular rapper but he still does anisong... it's not just bc he is popular, he also just happened to be under Sony. 👍

Joey reacting to anime op. Tell me I’m dreaming?

Keep up the great work and videos Joey love the video

T.M Revolution is such an amazing band, and has openings for such good shit Gundam Seed, Sengoku Basara, Kakumeiki Valvrave, Soul Eater...

Some of the best anime openings ever are sadly absent from that list 1999: Carnival - Ojamajo Doremi, 2011 Hacking to the Gate - Steins;Gate and 2022 Chitty chitty bang bang - Ya Boi Kongming.

I always love Joey reacting to these anime videos/lists please do more of these

We're coming for you Joey (us Noragami fans)

I had no idea that CAT’S EYE by Anri was an anime OP. The album it’s on, “Timely!!”, is one of the best city pop albums of all time.

I was born in 2000's but I watched a lot of 70's , 80's And so on as a kid. Our TV used to broadcast shows from my parents childhood so I have watched a lot of them

I agree with the past 2-3 years. It's TikTok that's picking anime OPs now, not actual anime enjoyers.

NANI!?! Joey giving respects to Dragon Ball Z!?!?

Very rare anime video Joey has blessed us

Oashi no Ko slander is crazy

just stumbled across the channel, you should definitely do more anime content!

the fact that Idol is so annoying to people is exactly why I love it so much and I have no idea why

80s Gundam has some good openings. It has some of my favorite openings ever.

Digimon S1 Butter-Fly by Wada Kouji deserved to be on the list!!!

Joey releases an anime related video. What a time to be alive.

bro back with the hot takes 💀

Joey: Haruka Kanata and Blue Bird are my favorite Naruto openings. Also Joey: My favorite Naruto Shippuden opening, is Hero's come back

Hell yeah love this

Its a good day when AnimeMan uploads an Anime video ❤

You're good at this anime stuff. You should make more content like this

Grendizer was the successor of Mazinger Z in the Go Nagai Universe of Mecha and one of the first, insanely popular in europe and the middle east in the 80s, thats what brought me to anime. I like to sing the opening while I shower and on karaoke nights, also really looking forward to Grendizer U coming really soon

I really need to watch Captain Harlock. The MC looks goofy and badass at the same time.

12:00 - I will never forget how I first started reading OP and how I first heard this song. I started reading one piece to replace the emepty feeling I had after finishing Naruto manga. Since I wasn't involved in the anime community, I genuinely hadn't heard about it, and I literally just picked it up cause the vibe that the cover was giving off was perfect (idk if it was the cover for the first volume or a different one - but the first volume cover and it's remake after the time skip are still my faves). I still remember being completely and utterly enchanted by the first page of chapter 1, Gold Roger's execution. And falling heads over heels for the manga after finishing chapter 1. It just spoke to me, heart to heart. Naturally, as every arc topped the previous one for literally 800 something chapters, I was thinking all the while, "man I think I found an underground gem, this is definitely my personal favorite unpopular show". Lol. One day, as I was cleaning my house while listening to music, youtube randomly started playing We Are! - and you guys gotta remember that in the full version of the song, there's no "wealth fame power" speech - it's just music for like 30 something seconds for the start. And in those 30 second, having never ever seen the anime, and before getting to the part where they say the title in the lyrics, I just FELT it. I just KNEW this was the One Piece opening. The vibe was so strong that despite the incredible variety of possible songs that can exist - I was just thinking "isn't this One Piece? It has to be right?" Both the Japanese and English (not the rap - altho that's got its own charm) versions of this song are incredible, the vibe, the lyrics, what's going on on the screen - everything gave off the PERFECT one piece vibe that I got from reading. The English one is incredible btw if any of y'all haven't heard it! To this day, I think this opening is the most fitting opening to a show I've ever seen, really encapsulating the energy and vibe. Not to mention it's a fuking banger. Man I love One Piece.

"1994. Yes I know I'm old" Watching as a 1974 kid here. 🪦

No Silhouette from Naruto Shippuden is a crime

Guess I am old to say one group...I am shocked that they did not add, which was huge in the 2000's. Janne da arc. Same as TM Revolution, Megumi Hayabarashi (the voice actor made music too, Like Shaman TV opening), and others. Just gonna say, the 2000's were the year most idols grew and even had a change too. The industry was wild.

Wow Joey does anime content??!!??!

damn, didn't know you were also into anime! this is new but i like it. would like to see more anime videos

Not seeing One Punch Man for 2015 best opening is wild to me

There’s so many I’m shocked didn’t make it in there, like ANY Initial D opening, particularly Blazin’ Beat(personal bias), or YuGiOh!. Also super surprised to not see either of the Death Note openings, or the original FMA ops cause those were extremely popular when it was originally airing. Like Joey, I really wonder about the metric that was being used to measure. If it was by popularity or views, or even cultural impact, you’d expect to see History Maker from Yuri! ON ICE for 2016(not saying it would be right, or even my opinion, just it’s what I’d expect and not be surprised by), for example. I’m really surprised I didn’t see more sports anime openings, because whether you love or hate them, the songs and bands/musicians are usually awesome, and the visuals are also usually really well done with the music. I enjoy a lot of sports based anime, from Prince of Tennis and Slam Dunk, to Free!, Haikyu, and Kuroko no Basket. What is even more, jarring, is the lack of musical anime inclusion. When it comes down to it, whatever the “best anime openings” are on any scale is always an opinion. But this list really did seem kind of all over the place, as far as what metric it was trying to use. I’d be interested to know what this same list would look like if Joey curated it, himself.

One of the negative points of living in Germany is that before streaming services it took quite a while before an anime made it to us. But at the same time that had the positive effect that I got to see 80s anime like Lupin and Cat's eye (which I really loved) on TV, otherwise I might have never seen them^^ And wtf? DBZ came out in 89?! we didn't get it until 2001! Sailor Moon only took 3 years to arrive here xD As for openings in general, Germany was always great, because we ignored the often stupid english openings and just used the japanese with tailored German lyrics

Didn't expect James the Japan fella to make an anime video

Grendizer. Known as Goldorak in my country, France. All French children of this era know the credits by heart. It was a huge success, like Candy, Albator (Herlock), Capitaine Flam (Captain Future)...😊 Memories

Bro said he loves where the Oshi No Ko manga's going 💀

here in Brazil Saint seya and dragon ball GT openings both were HUGE, everyone until today knows those song, just to be clear here in brazil those openings were dub

I can tell we’re practically the same age (I’m 1 year younger) because we completely agree on everything 😂 growing up on early 2000’s anime was just a whole different world

I can’t focus on a word coming out of your mouth bc you just unlocked so many memories w that nothing feels good record in the bg

Okay Joey let's face facts absolutely you're listening to the music but we can't hear it next time let us hear it too

Imo for 2007 it should have been sorairo days, the OP of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann

I think 水の星 へ 愛をこめて was licensed - It's originally a song written by an American songwriter Neil Sedaka but the original song was never actually released, the version sung by Moriguchi-san is actually a cover. Bandai don't own the rights to it and it meant after a certain period the song stopped being used in anything Zeta related anymore due to licensing. If I remember correctly I read the guy got annoyed with them asking for permission to use it and told them to stop asking him. It's annoying because it's an absolutely amazing song as well and both the openings and the ending song (all covers of his songs) are some of the best songs in Gundam.

I am most curious where they got those rankings too, but it was fun watching your reaction to it! Unless I missed it, if you haven't already, would be awesome to see your favorite anime openings and why!

For me, Zankyou Zanka is the best opening ever musically. I just love energetic high BPM pop songs, and this one is one of the best. Visually it's probably Chainsaw Man

Brother forgot to record his computer audio

I do agree the popularity of a show can inflate the ratings of the best openings. Each year there are so many amazing songs that it's hard to remember them all. I think the more popular an anime gets, the OP will get more votes because the general population will inevitably not know the lesser-known anime of that year.

Holy moly Joey's doing anime content, it's been 10 thousand years

Tori no Uta is such an amazing song.

You look a lot like the anime man

> Has Anime Man channel > Posts anime content on second channel Truly a Joey moment right here

We are backkk boyssss

OG sailor moon is my first anime I ever saw, saw it on Toonami

Plz react to anime outro’s next! Inuyasha always had the best music at the end of the show & im sure there’s other anime in the same boat

Wow I’m here super early!!

New drinking game, drink every time Joey says BRO 😁

2:50 this is just wrong lol most if not all anime ops are made in tandem with the anime, none of the songs exist prior to the anime's release!!!! There are also plenty of examples of groups made for the sole reason of making thematically congruent anisongs you needn't look further than like Attack on Titan for that lmao

Wait you watch anime?

Dude, I really like your shirt!

It's a SIN that Fighting Gold isnt on that list, I thought that was way more of a popular song

“I’m not a fan of yaosobi” loses respect for joe📉😔 “I like oshi no ko, the anime, manga, WHERE ITS GOING…” respect back up again📈😂

Aligned with a lot of your takes, but I hard disagree with the chainsaw man op just being ok, for me it is in the top 3 ops in this list.

Anime man reviewing anime op. Looks like the stars are lining up for this one to happen😂

Holy shit the music man started watching anime

Nahh, Noragami's amazing what are you on about

24:40 I tell you why Joey You are an hipster and this is the contrarian opinion

This is gonna be good ☺️

so it has come to the point where Joey posts anime stuff, INTENTIONALLY, on this channel and not on The Anime Man
