Manly Anime Songs

"Manly" isn't the right word for what I mean, but it's the only word that seems to fit.

Post all the anime songs you can think of that get your blood pumping, that make you wanna do something cool or kick someone's ass (even if it's only in your imagination).

Four songs come to me immediately:

"Akagi" by Maximum the Hormone (first ED of Akagi)
"S.T.S." by Animals (second ED of Akagi)
"Makka na Chikai" by Yoshiki Fukuyama (opening of Busou Renkin)
"02" by Orange Range (first opening of Code Geass R2)

They can be openings, endings, insert songs, character songs, or whatever else there is, as long as it's related to some anime thing.

I personally think the Darker than Black opening was pretty awesome. It made me feel like assasinating someone, so it fits your description. xD

Makes me want to tear someone up with a scythe.

definitely,gaogai-GAR!!!! even the name has a manly taste spice

Few things are manlier than the opening to Busou Renkin!


It bleeds testosterone and really gets you into the mood to kick just as much ass as they do! I'm aware Shaggy already mentioned this, but I needed to post the video and show my support.

Also, can't forget Ichigo's ass-kicking theme from Bleach. Whenever that guy started going soul-reaper on people, this song would play.

Seems kind of egotistical of him, but in the end it did manage to get you pumped.

Ones that I can think of

Blood+ OP 3- Colors of The Heart by Uverworld
Eureka 7 OP 3- Taiyo no Mannaka by Bivatchee
FMA OP 4- Rewrite by Asian Kung Fu Generations
New Getter Robo - Deep Red by Hiroshi Kitadani(JAM Project)
and...

My World Down by Meister (BECK ED1)

Donten by DOES (Gintama OP5)

Kanjite Knight by ULTIMATE LAZY w/ JAM Project (Shin Mazinger OP)

JAP by abingdon boys school (Sengoku Basara OP)

Detarame na Zanzou by GRANRODEO (Blassreiter OP1)

Chain Ring by MUCC (Zombie Loan ED)


I'll add more later as I remember them.

ed: You must be a fag if you find none of these "manly!" :razz: Those shit are awesome, just listen to them once and I bet you'd agree.

Ga-Rei Zero OP... Paradise Lost...

One of the coolest songs I heard in a long time...

Makes for good fightin' music...

Hellsing OP

Some more songs which I think fits the manly theme.

Hajime No Ippo S4 OP - Inner Light by Shocking Lemon (I had shivers and my blood starts pumping when this song started to play when Ippo starts doing the Dempsey Roll)


Super Robot Wars OVA (Appearance of Cybuster) - Neppu! Shippu! Cybuster by Jam Project


Muv Luv Alternative OP - Asu he no houkou by Hironobu Kageyama (Jam Project)
Not actually an anime but a game though the starting is animated so guess its ok for me to put it here.

@Temcor: Hajime No Ippo S4 OP - Inner Light by Shocking Lemon was an awesome song, and his dempsey roll is pure fucking win.

Makka na Chikai - manliness right there without a doubt.

@namaccu: GaoGaiGar is also full on manly spirit, I totally agree.

I can't believe yall forgot about these two:
Row, Row, Fight the Power! - TTGL, by Tarantula


Break Through the Dream - TTGL, Simoun & Kamina's theme

It'd be nice if people would spoiler the Youtube movies. >_>

Anyway here are some manly Anime Songs:

Mai Yamane - Pushing the Sky (Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' On Heaven's Door)


Susumu Hirasawa - Forces (Berserk)


Supercar - Storywriter (Eureka Seven)


Maximum the Hormone - What's Up People!? (Death Note OP 2) lol XD

Some of them are imo indeed manly. But some are not. Call me a fag if you want but I don't find them manly.
Such as the soul-eaters one...

btw Black Lagoon OP Season 1 I think [MELL - Red Fraction]

Death Note's ED for the second half of the anime. ("Zetsubō Billy" by Maximum the Hormone.)



What caught my attention the first time I've seen the ED was that Light is, throughout the whole song, doing nothing but standing there. He's just standing there... that's so god damn badass that it makes me want to watch the whole series again whenever I'm hearing that song. It also makes me want to kick some ass. Badly.

How can you guys forget the great song by La'arc en Ciel - Daybreaks Bell (Gundam 00 1st season)




Then Chain - Back-on (Air Gear)



Then Metamorphoze - Gackt (Zeta Gundam)



CyberBird - Yokko Konno



And Last and certainly not least The Real Folk Blues~lounge version~ (Cowboy bebop) Best heard to the last duel between Spike vs. Vicious. final ep of the series.

Just to list a couple of them.

Uverworld, from Gundam 00 Second Season 1st Opening



Re:member-Flow, from Naruto 8th opening



Ready,Steady,Go- from Fullmetal Alchemist



Uverworld -Colors of the heart from Blood +

Here's a few songs that fire me up.

Gackt - Kamen Rider Decade - Journey Through The Decade


Every time I hear this song I get pumped up, " Rider kick!"


I think we can all agree that Gackt songs are GAR, except his yaoi songs xD.

I might as well suggest those series in which they're from.

PS: THIS MOST IMPORTANTLY! :D
