Might be a thread that exists on this. Maybe it will be merged, haha! Anyway, after seeing a streak of exceptional JDrama series, I've been unimpressed with a majority of their opening and ending theme songs. There have been some that really got me hooked, despite how embarrassing it is for me to admit to. So, what are your favorite JDrama opening and ending theme songs? (EDIT: general theme songs added) Here's mine:

Opening:
Attack No. 1 (Saki Fukuda - Attack No. 1)

Closing:
My Little Chef (Ayumi Hamasaki - Voyage)
Attack No. 1 (Aya Ueto - Yume no Chikara)

General:
Gokusen 2 (Kamenashi Kazuya - Kizuna)

Ah...this is hard. Unsure I actually like all of the themesongs I've heard in J-Dramas so far Laugh *dork*

Though, closest to my favourite at the moment would have to be:

1 Litre of Tears
"Konayuki" by Remioromen

K's Over... (H2)
Kinki Kid's To Heart (To Heart)

oh jeez, I have a lot of favorites, but on top of some of the ones already listed, and not in any particular order...


Sormachi Takeshi - "Poison" (Great Teacher Onizuka)
Fukuyama Masaharu - "Niji" (Water Boys)
Kobukuro - "Sakura" (Ns' Aoi)
Kaientai - "Atarashii Hito e" (3nen B-gumi Kinpachi Sensei 5)
Yamashita Tatsuro - "Ride on Time" (Good Luck!!)
Otsuka Ai - "Friends" (Tokyo Friends - OP)
Sambomaster - "Sekai wa Sore wo Ai to Yobun da ze" (Densha Otoko - ED)

And then not Japanese, but....
Electric Light Orchestra - Twilight (Densha Otoko - OP)

I do try to sing some of these at karaoke, but I've failed miserably on all of them. My current goal, though, is to memorize Niji and Sakura.
