Any anime fan can tell you that medicine is an integral part of anime . Mostly because Nipponese music studio utilize their theme songs to pimp new / live bands and drive sales event , but also partly because this music is often god - awe-inspiring . While no means a complete tilt , here are a twelve of the most terrible opening melodic theme Zanzibar copal has to propose .

1 ) “ Tatsumaki Wave , ” Master of Martial Hearts
While the show is about Japanese school girls who crusade principally by punch each other ’s clothes off , the trouble with this Song dynasty is that the singer and the band are on the face of it perform two immensely dissimilar songs in two disjoined locations . I think the singer might have record her part in a bathroom somewhere ? Sure , they manage to reconcile on occasion , but it ’s still bad enough someone felt the need to stab the singer at the final stage .
2 ) “ Shinryaku no Susume , ” Squid Girl
frankly , this song is just bouncy J - popping at its richly - pitched , overenthusiastic bounciest . It ’s a little hard on the ears , but it does make mother wit as a song . But that intro where rack hellcat repeatedly shriek “ SHINRYA ! SHINRYA ! SHINRYA ! ” is virgin torment , plain and bare . It was made out of pain and hate , by people so unrepentantly malefic they they wanted others to palpate their misery as much as they felt their own . And they just happened to be 20 - something Japanese J - pappa stars .

“ 3 ) Abnormalize . ” Psycho Pass
Starts out kind of normal , does n’t it ? That ’s how this initiative perplex you . You listen , and it sound like a reasonable rock birdcall , and then you wonder : Why is n’t the singer let the cat out of the bag in a normal voice yet ? Why is he still adjudicate to pretend to be a soprano ? Is he babble out by inhale ? And that ’s when the other musicians just get playing random notes and the honest madness begins .

4 ) “ Utauyo ! ! Miracle , ” KB - On !
What would chance if you took an already disturbingly perky song and gave it the Alvin & the Chipmunks treatment ? I believe the result would be consanguineal to this theme from the popular anime K - On — an inexplicable mash of high - pitched notes and music play to fast to achieve any form of melody . On the other hand , I ’m pretty for sure this song is even more horrible for dogs and other animals whose hear range exceeds our own .

5 ) “ Go!Go ! Maniac ! ” honey oil - On !
And yet “ Utauyo ! ! Miracle ” is a goddamned Beethoven symphonic music compared to the incubus than is atomic number 19 - On ’s 2d opening move topic , “ Go!Go ! Maniac ! ” This vocal is n’t music , it ’s a hate criminal offence . It ’s some kind of terrifying experimentation to see if humanity can make a birdcall that turns us all into fierce madman . The direction I notice myself covered in profligate and with no recollection of the last few minute after I hear this calamity is validation that it seems to work .

6 ) “ Take It ! Sailor Uniform , ” Lucky Star
Part cheerleading chant , part rap , part Lovecraftian vacancy of darkness and despair , this “ Lucky Star ” musical theme may be the bad Japanese song on this list , and I say that having just called one a hate crime . I resist to think that even in Japan , where Zanzibar copal and prettiness ride both their acculturation and the thriftiness that anyone made this song with the intention that people 1 ) enjoy it , 2 ) not hate it , or 3 ) vow to hunt down and murder those in dusty blood creditworthy for it . This tune is a vituperative bill of indictment of an entertainment genre , a ethnical paradigm and an entire country , one design to cause as much physical and aroused pain in the neck as potential . Also , it ’s not very good .
7 ) German Opening , Naruto
Not all terrible Zanzibar copal gap have to come up from Japan , you live . This German scuttle is trial impression that any country can fail miserably , especially if they stick a random dude in a transcription booth , order him the show ’s name and no other selective information , and then draw him to freestyle rap an entire theme song . Why is it in English ? I have no idea . But I decline to think anybody in reality indite these lyrics down and call back to themselves “ Good body of work . ”
- “ Neko Mimi Mode , ” Tsukuyomi Moon Phase
At first , this sounds like a low - central , kind of goofy euphony resonant of the soundtrack to the videogame Katamari Damacy . It ’s not large , but it ’s kind of restful — and then you start watching the music video and you realize you ’re presently watching what David Lynch sees in his nightmares , and you try out to tear your eyes out of your head .
9 ) “ Kotodama , ” Shigofuni
I do n’t know what J - pop ’s current fascination is with playing completely random notes on keyboards and then basing total Song dynasty on whatever the blaze they crapped out , but this song is distinctly a dupe of it . There ’s a fine stock between “ strait ” and “ melody , ” and “ Kotodama here is so far in the “ sounds ” side “ melody ” does n’t even show up on its Google function .
10 ) “ Kyomu Densen , ” Another
Hey , it ’s the melodious combining weight of Frankenstein ’s monster ! Eighteen different songs , fragments of which are squeeze together against the police of nature and God And just like Dr. Frankenstein , the composer of this “ song ” create one grotesque entity , hideous to comprehend , full of hate and desperation , and looking to stamp out for its abnormal , doomed existence . Neat !
11 ) “ Kitei no Tsurugi , ” Linebarrels of Iron
And now a Sung dynasty that combine most of the worst aspects of all the previous songs together ! No line ! Random notes ! strain to force completely random songs together and ending up with a pile of shit ! Does … do Japan ’s gum anime soundtrack composers get paid by the note ?
12 ) U.S. Opening , One art object
Talking red cent about 4Kids first attempted “ cool ” theme song for the U.S. release of One Piece , is a moment like talking shit about Hitler — plenty of people have done it before . But much like Hitler , the U.S. One Piece theme song deserves all the disdain it can possibly receive , from now until the end of time . Now , I would like to put forward unequivocally that Hitler was of course a greater iniquity than the One Piece theme . However , I would like to say that if Hitler had heard this strain , he would have loved it — that ’s how horrifying they both are .
