songs from anime and anime-style games that are BOPS
~ ~ limit 10 to a page for easier loading - click above for more jams! ~ ~
WHAT'S THIS? Well, sometimes there's a full-length song I really like from an anime that I enjoy listening to. Sometimes it comes from an AWESOME anime, and sometimes... the anime SUCKS. but the song is... kinda still a jam. And sometimes, I straight up haven't watched the anime or played the game, but I came across the song anyways, and, I find myself wanting to listen to it again. here's a helping of 'em:
- TLDR; I'm sharing these songs bc they're special in their own right, but I cannot guarantee the source material is anywhere near as good as the song; my apologies in advance if you check it out and potentially find yourself disappointed 🙏
"Beneath the Mask (Rain)" OST Background Music (Game: Persona 5)
This is a special version of the song that plays on rainy days in the game Persona 5.
"Gallop" Ending Theme 16 (Anime: Bleach)
"So Scandalous" OST Background Music (Anime: Soul Eater)
"Dear You" OST Background Music(?) (Anime/Game: Higurashi - When They Cry, 2006)
(I know little about this anime and what this song is used for in it, but I am ASSUMING it's just part of the OST and used as background music. In fact I can't even tell you if this plays in the game or the anime. Sorry.)
"Tori no Uta" Opening Theme (Anime: Air)
Okay, this probably isn't the highest quality of this song you can find on Youtube, but listen, how often do you get to watch a video uploaded in 2006 that's still live?
"Monochrome ~version de l'apprivoiser~" Insert Song (Anime: Star Driver)
"Ame Iro Rondo" Background Music OST (Anime: Toradora!)

"Winter Seascapes on the Tsugaru Strait - Tsugaru Kaikyo Fuyugeshiki" (Anime: Durarara!!, Character: Shizuo Heiwajima)
This is an enka song sung by Shizuo's voice actor, Daisuke Ono. It's not really an official song for Durarara!! though, and it isn't used in the anime. (Also, the video description has a blurb about what the "enka" music genre is, check it out to learn more.)
