2021 End of the Year Lists
And finally we get to showcase the top 2 songs of 2021. Also now my shame of actually liking a song by a vTuber can be put on display. Guess I should kill myself. Notes: Anything announced as a theme song is assumed to be an ED unless other information contradicts that. E7 and Macross F movie use the MV because the PVs for the movie don't use the songs for some reason. Macross Delta Zettai Live uses a still because they care so little about the series that not only do none of the PVs use the song, they also didn't give enough shits to give it an MV. Also I'm assuming the Macross F movie is not using the full 8 minute version of the ED since it's supposed to be a short movie.

We finish the year with a surprisingly strong SP OP/ED list this time. Also I'm fairly sure this year has more SP OPs than every other year I've ranked (2014+) combined. Notes: As usual, the half-anime Aikatsu Planet is treated as a decimal. Megaton and Muv-Luv have not released their respective OSTs, so unfortunately they have voiceover over them. Warabi-san airs on some weird app that I couldn't download or record from, though I did view the episode to confirm the length it plays in EP 13. Visuals come from the MV. Judgement Assizes was only released to backers so visuals come the PV. Rules: I considered almost all SP themes from this year, with the only exceptions being the different versions of shows where the ED is the same song but different cast (so Love Live Superstar and World Witches).

Pretty strong year for the weekly magazine this year, though the entries from the monthly one had more misses than hits. Notes: I consider both Weeekly Shounen JUMP and the monthly JUMP SQ. to be part of Shounen Jump, but not the V JUMP that Boruto runs in, as that's technically it's own thing. Shaman King is kind of a mess, but since what's adapted was technically run in shounen jump at some point, I allowed it.

Only 3 amazing visuals this year, but lots of really strong visuals otherwise, was difficult to narrow down it down to top 20. The name at the top is the director of each of the OP/ED in the list. Of note, only 3 of them have never directed an anime OP/ED before, numbers 3, 13, and 19.

Surprisingly, there were only 2 songs this year that were really popular despite being terrible, and another two that were pretty bad, yet still popular. The rest were either just bad or ok.

While the bottom end of this is the worst it's been in years, the top 10 is much stronger than the last few years, and having 3 pairings average top 10 is amazing. Rules: All songs must be paired together for at least 2 episodes. Songs can only be counted once for a pairing, otherwise this list would just be a bunch of Mushoku Tensei songs. The average rank (green number) is calculated by taking an average of the songs rank in my OP and ED lists. Notes: The first song shown is the one that did better in it's respective list. The only exceptions are the top 2, which had the same rank in each list, for those the weaker song is shown first. Rankings for songs that weren't in my OP/ED list: D_Cide Traumerei the Animation ED 1 - 70th Mazica Party OP 1 - 56th Vanitas no Karte OP 1 - 78th Kingdom 3rd Season OP 2 - 62nd Back Arrow OP 2 - 53rd Patreon stuff: https://www.patreon.com/Daytona520 $5+ Backers: https://tinyurl.com/GYOsYoutube https://tinyurl.com/MoltenAshes https://tinyurl.com/JanPietMitsuha2 https://tinyurl.com/mariofan1lol https://tinyurl.com/SiNsYoutube https://tinyurl.com/ankochiYT https://tinyurl.com/SamsukeYT https://tinyurl.com/CryerHawk3 Links: http://anisonpreviews.com/ https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vKTaMvwlX68SURPBE2_e_MIhfcL5878LOcoz5BDyTLg/edit?usp=sharing https://animemusicquiz.com/ https://www.dailymotion.com/Daytona-520 https://utreon.com/c/AnimeSongLists Songs Used: Back Arrow OP 2: "Kodou" by Eir Aoi Back Arrow ED 2: "United Sparrows" by FLOW Cestvs: The Roman Fighter OP 1: "Endeavour" by Dragon Ash Cestvs: The Roman Fighter ED 1: "Kirei da" by Sarasa Kadowaki D_Cide Traumerei the Animation OP 1: "Kemono no Kotowari" by Tokyo Jihen D_Cide Traumerei the Animation ED 1: "BLACK LOTUS" by RONDO Dr. Stone: Stone Wars OP 1: "Rakuen" by Fujifabric Dr. Stone: Stone Wars ED 1: "Koe?" by Hatena Edens Zero OP 2: "FOREVER" by L'Arc~en~Ciel Edens Zero ED 2: "Sekai no Himitsu" by Sayuri Hanyou no Yashahime: Sengoku Otogizoushi OP 2: "BURN" by NEWS Hanyou no Yashahime: Sengoku Otogizoushi ED 2: "Kesshou" by Ryokuoushoku Shakai Hanyou no Yashahime: Sengoku Otogizoushi - Ni no Shou OP 1: "ReBorn" by NEWS Hanyou no Yashahime: Sengoku Otogizoushi - Ni no Shou ED 1: "Toumei na Sekai" by Little Glee Monster Kaizoku Oujo OP 1: "Umi to Shinju" by JUNNA Kaizoku Oujo ED 1: "Saihate" by Minori Suzuki Kimetsu no Yaiba: Mugen Ressha-hen OP 1: "Akeboshi" by LiSA Kimetsu no Yaiba: Mugen Ressha-hen ED 1: "Shirogane" by LiSA Kingdom 3rd Season OP 2: "STACKiNG" by BiSH Kingdom 3rd Season ED 2: "kIng" by Emiko Suzuki Koi to Yobu ni wa Kimochi Warui OP 1: "Monoqlo City" by ACE COLLECTION Koi to Yobu ni wa Kimochi Warui ED 1: "Linaria" by MaRuRi to Ryuga Kyoukai Senki OP 1: "enemy" by Blank Paper Kyoukai Senki ED 1: "You're my perfect mirror" by Yuna Fukinbara Mahouka Koukou no Yuutousei OP 1: "101" by Sangatsu no Phantasia Mahouka Koukou no Yuutousei ED 1: "Double Standard" by Philosophy no Dance Mazica Party OP 1: "Mazi-ka" by Yusuke Mazica Party ED 1: "MAZICA PARTY" by Seven Billion Dots Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu OP 1: "Tabibito no Uta" by Yuiko Ohara Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu ED 1: "Only" by Yuiko Ohara Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu 2nd Season OP 2: "Keishou no Uta" by Yuiko Ohara Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu 2nd Season ED 1: "Kaze to Iku Michi" by Yuiko Ohara Nanatsu no Taizai: Fundo no Shinpan OP 1: "Hikari Are" by Akihito Okano Nanatsu no Taizai: Fundo no Shinpan ED 1: "time" by SawanoHiroyuki[nZk]:ReoNa Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu 2nd Season Part 2 OP 1: "Long shot" by Mayu Maeshima Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu 2nd Season Part 2 ED 1: "Believe in you" by nonoc Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken 2nd Season Part 2 OP 1: "Like Flames" by MindaRyn Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken 2nd Season Part 2 ED 1: "Reincarnate" by Takuma Terashima Vanitas no Karte OP 1: "Sora to Utsuro" by sasanomaly Vanitas no Karte ED 1: "0 (zero)" by LMYK

Well, another shitty year that would probably be the worst over the last decade is behind us. Still there was exactly 50 8.5+'s this year, so it wasn't all lost. Other than number's 1, 5, 31, and a couple in the 40s, I wonder if this list could be more casual than it is. Rules: No songs under 15 seconds, uncredited instrumentals, or single episode songs, and one version of each song that has multiple versions.
