I picked out a handful of my favorite OPs and EDs and grouped them by shows that I am watching vs. shows that I am not watching. I also threw in a couple random mentions at the end for fun. These are in no particular order.

From shows I am watching

Dan Da Dan OP - Otonoke - Such a great OP. If you haven't been watching Dan Da Dan, you should at least check out Creepy Nuts' latest hit after their Mashle OP.
Orb: On the Movements of the Earth OP - Kaijuu - This is almost definitely tainted by how much I like the show, but I have really been enjoying this OP a lot.
Tower of God Cour 2 ED - Falling Up - Stray Kids are back for the second cour and I really like the ED. Felix's deep voice in the beginning is always a treat.
365 Days to the Wedding OP - Kirakira - Too sweet to handle! I also love how it ends with the facade literally falling down around them.

From shows I am not watching

Touhai OP - Gambling Hall - Masayoshi Ooishi never misses. Another really fun song from him for this show about...Mahjong, presumably? Seriously though, all of his stuff is excellent, even if the show isn't.
Tying the Knot with an Amagami Sister ED - Kimi ni Koi wo Musunde - Hard to put my finger on what I like about this ED, but I have been vibing with it since I listened to it this past week for this post.
Maou 2099 OP - Hollow - The song starts out nice and subdued in order to build up a to a really nice and hype chorus.
Mecha-ude OP - VORTEX - The song is fun and the visuals look super fun. Is this seriously this studio's first ever project? Looks nice and polished.
The Most Notorious "Talker" Runs the World's Greatest Clan ED - Liberation - The visuals might not be much to write home about, but I love the kind of creepy atmosphere of this song.

Honorable Mentions

Thirstiest - (Probably NSFW) - Is It Wrong To Try To Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? ED - Hydrate - In a year in which JC Staff has taken on so, so many shows, they always seem to dedicate a huge portion of their effort to Danmachi. And it shows...
Most Unique Visuals - You are Ms. Servant OP - Otozure - Just a carousel of different visual styles. You never know what is coming next.
Now That's What I Call Eurobeat! - MF Ghost OP - Rock Me Kiss Me - Eurobeat is pretty much the only thing I know about MF Ghost other than that it is about racing.
Banana? - Bananya: Around the World ED - Across Universe - Banana.

Tower of God Cour 2 ED - Falling Up - Stray Kids are back for the second cour and I really like the ED. Felix's deep voice in the beginning is always a treat.

That's cool, was really missing them in the first cour.

[–] wjs018@ani.social 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I mean, it doesn't make the rest of this season any better, but it is still appreciated. It's a nice little cap on the end of each episode. The OP is fine, but I like the ED way more.

[–] domi@lemmy.secnd.me 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I assume that means the second cour does not get better? I'm not up to date right now but the first cour was sort of uninteresting.

[–] wjs018@ani.social 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Disclaimer: I haven't watch the most recent episode yet. However, the second cour has been similar to the first. The main difference is that they are setting up the Workshop Battle. Something that I have heard source readers talk about and is apparently a quite large arc in the story. However, it is still in the setup phase where I am at in the cour, so it hasn't been the most engaging yet.

@zabadoh@ani.social might be able to provide an alternative take, but the two of us are the only ones really active in the discussion threads.

[–] zabadoh@ani.social 3 points 1 month ago

Honestly, I haven't read up to this point in ToG. The Workshop-long-arc thing I just picked up from hearsay.

As I mentioned in this week's MF Ghost episode thread, we got a new Eurobeat track this episode: Go Wild by Dusty
