Gone were the bland openings with casual songs and mediocre visuals. No, she was a Japanese singer who would become a sort of savior for anime songs. It was there we all began to figure it out: LiSA was more than just a regular singer. LiSA fit the bill, releasing an album under the show’s band. It was around this time that the anime Angel Beats! Needed singers for its fictional in-show band Girls Dead Monster. She soon joined another indie band in 2010.įrom Indie Band Chucky to Sword Art Online Her beginnings technically start in high school with a cover band called Chucky but it wasn’t until her move to Tokyo from her home prefecture of Gifu did it really pick up steam. She’s known for her incredible voice and range and her ability to make any song sound like a powerhouse. Lisa, otherwise branded as LiSA is one of the most popular Japanese singers around. It all made sense with a quick google search. She had one of the most powerful voices I had ever heard and yet, somehow familiar. I immediately needed to download anything and everything the singer for the OP had done. With grand visuals and an even grander song, I was hooked, watching the season until I was up to date and obsessed. I had seen clips and descriptions and quite frankly, I remained uninterested. It was a similar situation with Kimetsu no Yaiba or Demon Slayer. The description of the show didn’t catch my interest, but the OP sure did.

And we do that a lot when it comes to anime openings. As much as we tell folks not to judge a book by its cover, it’s easier said than done.

Ask any fan of their favorite opening and you’ll be introduced to dozens of songs and artists, ranging from metal to pop and even jazz. And while new modern streaming services allow for the option to skip these openings, many fans refuse.Īnd it’s easy to see why. It’s one of the first things the audience experiences when starting a new show. A single note can evoke a variety of feelings, from overwhelming joy to utter heartbreak. Sometimes the songs for anime are almost as important as the story.
