I truly despise openings in Anime, but there's only one opening that is beyond a masterpiece!

I've never seen such a beautiful & creative opening in Anime.

What do you think? Is there a opening that I'm not aware of that could top off Elfen Lied?

It's a masterpiece on its own, but it also perfectly sets the mood for what you're about to watch, in my opinion anyway.

I mean you are not wrong so can not argue that. It is an amazing opening.

Yup it's sets up the right atmosphere for the show. Ergo Proxy's opening is also a classic

Was literally about to say the same thing, welp.

Another one would be the KnK op, it's really good -

It really is terrific. One of the best things to come out of that show, if not the best.

The Opening is the only thing they did right in this anime

It is. Extremely memorable and should be pretentious on paper but isn't, its just good on so many levels.

When this anime came out, the opening was frequently praised as well

Totally agree. I love Elfen Lied and the OP is one the many reasons I love it. They also did an amazing job working it into the show with the music box which made it that much more hauntingly beautiful

I had never even heard of this show until just now and i could immediately tell that it's a Yuki Kajiura piece. Her musical style is just unmistakable; God, i love that woman.

Thanks for spotlighting it, added to the list.
