Naruto shippuden is a sequel to naruto so pretty much naruto after a timeskip
Ahh ok thank you! :)
The transformers looking things are known as "mecha" and were super popular back in the days, alongside overall space centered stories ^^ It's interesting because despite the way we tend to look at giant robot stories now, they are usually different then "silly stories for kids with robots". Of course there were that too, they were sponsored by toy manufacturers after all, but since the WWII was close and there were a lot of changes still happening in japan, a lot of mecha became very serious commentary on war, politics and tragedies. Imagine Attack on Titan but instead of titans there are giant robots piloted by humans, after all AoT is often jokingly called a "flesh mecha anime". Some of the biggest ones in the genre would include Mobile Suit Gundam (I highly recommend checking out the openings and maybe some series, it is a giant and might seem daunting at first but is an amazing piece of history), Macross, Neon Genesis Evangelion and Code Geass (these are from just the top of my head, there is of course much much more) ^^
This is so interesting- thank you! I’ll definitely check out your suggestions
It killed me when you called gundam
First power ranger then transformers 😂
Its one of the top genre of anime specially in japanese people
They love their mecha / robot anime shows
Obviously since its been going since 1970's 😂
2:10 Urusei Yatsura recently got a remake and the author's next work already being announced for its own remake.
watch at least the first episode of Oshi No Ko, it's one of the more mind catching first episodes out there.
It’s on my list!!
Missing Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex. The intro with Origa is still impressive.
I 100% recommend Oshi no Ko!!!! Little info about it, the first episode covers the entire first volume so it is an hour long and there’s a post credits scene
@@HU3NINGS thank you! It’s definitely on my list so I hope I’ll get to react to it on the channel soon
Difference between Naruto and Naruto shippuden is that the first is more like introduction to the main story (which is happening in Shippuden) and characters. Shippuden is more darker with deeper story (in my opinion). I recommend it. Its worth your time
Candy was my very first anime 😭 (before Sailor Moon). In the 90s tho… ahhh good times… Also, forever traumatized with what happened with Anthony 🙅🏻♀️
I think you'd love Sailor Moon, it's such a good anime series, it's remake recently just had it's final movie release on Netflix even though the movie came out last year, I just started it recently the 90's anime & working my way towards Crystal (which is the remake)
Congrats on 2k views 100 likes and 28 subs you deserve it
@@Chrisplays123 Thank you so much! 😭❤️
Oh hey I was born '98 too! Regarding Naruto: the watch order is Naruto first and then Naruto Shippuden. I got into Naruto in 2017 at the urging of a friend after it was still freshly completed which was nice bc I did skip most of the fillers 😅. I would also really recommend Erased! It's a one season and done kind of series so easy to get into.
Thanks for the rec- erased is on my watchlist! And I definitely want to start naruto at some point as well since I’ve heard amazing things
I was born in 98 too😂
If you want to do some reactions, I recommend Beastars, openings, you can also do the endings (I think the endings are even better), there not a lot of reactions of it so it would be cool 👍
@@joemama-san2546 Thank you for the suggestion!
Grendizer, Candy, Captain Herlock...all my childhood 😊
Mecha-genre anime list:
(not ranked, just listed)
1. The Big O
2. Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
3. Code Geass
4. Full Metal Panic
5. Escaflowne
6. Eureka 7
7. Hundred (bio-mechas)
8. Evangelion (bio-mechas)
9. IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix
10. Rideback
11. Burst Angel (this used to be especially beloved and popular with girls, as it had quite the lez-couple as the main characters: Jo and Meg, that girls really enjoyed, and it's a good anime too, for both guys and girls)
12. Macross franchise/series
13. Kuromukuro
14. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
15. Gundam franchise/series
----------------------------
not mecha-genre anime, but has some form of mecha in it:
1. Solty Rei (brief mecha fight, and the girls have mecha body suits / body replacements, so that's kinda mecha-ish too)
2. Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
3. SCRYED
4. Gunslinger Girls (the girls are cyborgs, so kinda mecha-ish)
5. Attack On Titan (titans are bio-mechas: steam-technology + organic)
7. Konasuba (briefly, one mecha fight: season 1 finale battle, and in the 2nd OVA there's a golem-mecha)
8. Guyver: The Bio-boosted Armor (2005) (bio-mecha-suit)
9. Noein: To Your Other Self
10. The Sacred Blacksmith (one fight has a magic-mecha battle)
11. Soul Eater (some of the battles/opponents are mecha-ish)
12. Birdy the Mighty Decode
13. The Soul Taker (some of the fights/opponents are mecha-ish)
14. Trinity Blood (one of the characters is a robot, which is kinda mecha-ish)
15. Witchblade
16. Cashern Sins (bio-mecha suits/characters)
17. Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo (it does have a mecha battle)
18. Desert Punk (I think it has some mecha, but could be wrong)
19. Asobi ni iku yo (US: cat planet cuties / bombshells from the sky) (has some mecha-like robots)
These are the "most popular openings" of each year, not necessarily the most popular anime of that year. There is overlap.
Also though many of the choices seem pretty accurate, there are a few that are questionable and since the video author didn't state their methods its hard to check.
@@flyingeagle3898 Ah ok got it! Thanks for clarifying!
there is another similar video like this, that chronicles anime openings since the 1960s
Naruto is him as a kid naruto shippuden is him as a teen and boruto is him as adult 😅
It's not necessarily the most popular anime of every year but the most popular opening song
PLEASE U GOTTA CHECK OUT SWORD ART ONLINE! AND SOUL EATER! AND TOKYO GHOUL! AND DEADMAN WONDERLAND! OMG THIS IS SO AWESOME! Im so happy your stepping into your anime jounrey i loved this!
@@MouseyGaang thank you! ❤️ and thanks for all the suggestions- I’ll look into them :)
Bubblegum Crisis is easily in the top 5 OVAs ever made, definitely a high recommend from me 👍🏼
I agree 100% with the comment above me the entire track is straight up 🔥!
Respect for Unravel but Silhouette of Kana-Boon was the Anime OP/Ost in 2014
It's incredible how much of a cushioning effect adding the "-looking things" statement has after saying "Transformers", lmao
Holy crap, I was going to ask by what metric these were chosen, but when 2005 had AIR's Tori no Uta as its pick I almost started clapping. But it's still hard to know with these things because of the way mass media exploded after the 2000s, and the way anime productions started collaborating with major record labels looking to get their musicians out there, so after decades of writing "anime songs for anime" it became "songs we associate with having been used for anime" after a while. And then lately it's taken a turn back to the music being more closely related. Like, it makes you wonder if this list was based on sales charts, then the record labels would be pushing the music outside of just its anime context as well.
Of course, the more hardcore nerdy stuff never stopped making the kinda music that would never fly outside of the deeply entrenched context, but nowadays the new big name anime have theme songs more tailored to them, yeah. Someone should make a video for 2006 alone, considering how modern otaku culture took a turn around that year.
There's no difference besides age between naruto and naruto shippuden. It's the same story split into 2 parts. The so called Og naruto is just part one naruto and shippuden is part 2 naruto. Both are Og naruto.
DNA2 is pretty good
4:02 and this opening is not the first one haha
Erased is a must watch!
I 100% recommend mashle and oshi no ko, great masterpieces
Deberías reaccionar alguna ves al anime angel Beats😊
The original Dragon Ball is from 1985
.... now I feeling old xD
Really recommend Ousama ranking openings, especially the 2 one by Vaundy
Demon slayer openings ❤️❤️
You should react to some tokusatsu openings they are so good exmp ultraman, kamen rider
Not biggest or most popular anime of each year. Most popular anime opening of each year.😉
You need to react to air opening!!! Its so good, makes me cry, the anime itself not that good, but the ending is just..!! Wow
Gotta watch Attack On Titan or Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood if you have not. Check out Kaguya Sama if you want a goated romantic comedy. Your Lie In April is another great romantic one that is more serious.
Not having Digimon "Butterfly" opening is so wrong....
Mashle op is the op of the year everybody vibing onit its so famous now world wide , the band creepy nuts did it and it have more better songs its icobic
First of all, welcome aboard the anime train. Second, some personal recommendations for Opening Reactions NOT shown here (as a few of these like Cruel Angel's Thesis, Moonlight Densetsu, Idol, Colors, and Crossing Field are already here) include
Seishun Complex/Seisyun Complex (Bocchi the Rock OP)
Catch You Catch Me (Cardcaptor Sakura OP 1)
Clear (Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card OP 1)
Love Dramatic (Kaguya-sama Love Is War OP 1)
Fantastic Dreamer (Konosuba OP 1)
Redo, Paradisus-Paradoxum, Realize, and Long Shot (Re;Zero OP 1-4)
Innocence and Ignite (Sword Art Online OP 2 and 3)
Ryusei (Sword Art Online Alternative Gun Gale Online OP 1)
Go!!! (Naruto OP 4)
Snow Fairy and FT (Fairy Tail OP 1 and 3)
Kaze Wo Tsukinukete, Futatsu No Mirai, Be Somewhere, and Shouri No Uta (RockMan EXE OP 1-4)
Dimension Tripper (Hyperdimension Neptunia the Animation OP)
Bouken Desho Desho (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya OP 1)
Rise (The Rising of the Shield Hero OP 1)
Kyuukyoku Unbalance (Bofuri OP 1)
There's a lot more I could recommend but you'd either be in for a long franchise (Such is the case with the Precure/Pretty Cure franchise, either name works for that), or in the case of Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds, my recommendation (Going My Way) would likely spoil the final arc, and I REALLY don't want to spoil such a good piece of writing.
As for anime recommendations, first, since you are just starting out I'll give you a couple shorter ones to balance out with the titan that is One Piece
Bocchi the Rock
Oshi No Ko
Bofuri
Kaguya-sama Love Is War
Konosuba
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (You are more than allowed to skip Episodes 14-18 and plenty will agree)
As for the above mentioned Precure franchise, my starting point was Smile Precure, but absolute favorite to this day is Go! Princess Precure. In the case of Smile Precure and Dokidoki Precure, stay away from the Netflix Saban Dubs. I should know, I watched both. Great voice work and Dubs overall, just Americanized story writing and cut Episodes makes them vastly inferior to the Subs.
Lastly, a few bigger ones I can recommend
Sailor Moon (Sub or Viz Media Redub)
Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds
Aikatsu
Re;Zero
Cardcaptor Sakura
Probably missed quite a lot but this should be a good mix of old and new stuff
Thanks for all these suggestions! 😀
Since you want to hear the longer version of those openings, why not react to the *Gundam SEED* Opening & Ending songs? You saw Gundam SEED on that list as the most popular in the year 2002 for a reason. I'll try to give you the playlist linx below. I hope CZcams don't delete it coz they hate linx in the comments.

Thank you for all these recs!!
6:17 Favorite💕ONE PIECE！
@@momo-lf8hn I’m watching it now on my channel- I love it! ❤️
Since you asked, pick some Gundam series to simply improve your knowledge on literally most basics of anime cuz roots are simply important. (and yes, thers no need to watch all of them and start from the first one) Maybe then you wont mention power rangers again lol!
Thanks for the suggestion! I definitely have a lot to learn haha
should definitely react to gundam seed and seed destiny’s openings and endings they’re one of the best gundam openings ever and the new gundam seed freedom movie op and definitely should react to eureka seven openings and endings and the following series eureka seven AO openings and endings and also before anything it’s pronounced (EH-OO-REH-KA)
You should react to Claymore
Who watch mecha:🫠
Who only know 0.1% of mecha:”Is that another gundum?”
Who didn’t know anything
3:10 “Transformer”
😂😂😂 Actually,that’s first time I heard someone said that
it's cool to see new people into anime but nowdays there's these people called tourists that we all hate, don't become one, enjoy what you like in anime and ignore what you don't, please don't be a pesky tourist that just come to anime for a while, get triggered or outraged by some sexist joke, big booba or wierd trope in anime and put up a cancelation on twitter, they try to change generes of anime they don't like to leave it later.
remember/manga anime/manga has generes, so not evrything is for everyone, each genere is targeted to particular target audience, but is so diverse that there's somethign to everyone.
Is that makeup or is the color of your lips natural?
hi Dia
@@stopputin2541 hi!😄
4:27 Wrong!
React to Naruto and Naruto Shippuden openings pls 😊❤
@@Saltenjoyernotachad I’m down! Does it contain any spoilers for the show? Because I do plan on watching it at some point :)
@@DiaReacts It does but if you have no clue about the show it won't spoil you a lot ❤️ meaning it needs at least some contexts to understand hope this helps 👍
Got it- thank you! :)
a lot of these had english dubs that were rather different. you might try finding a thing of popular dubbed openings
Perfect time to start watching my hero because the manga just ended and the anime isn’t that far behind!!!!
@@HU3NINGS Definitely another one on my list!
@@DiaReacts my hero is actually so good
to save your anime home coming precious time, if you want to grow your channel fast, Naruto is first. It's the most emotional, mainstream anime that anyone can join in and 1. enjoy and 2. get views. One Piece is trash to start off with, just my opinion.
Interesting fact about the first anime opening in this video (grendizer ufo robo) it got a reboot this year
