Out of the many cliche anime openings and endings out there *cough*, which ones are your favorite?
My favorite OP is prolly Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei's first OP, because SHAFT (i like mostly all of shaft's OPs actually, from what i've seen). Favorite ED would have to be Seitokai Yakuindomo's, dat song. don't have many other favorites.
OP: I guess I'll have to go with Hellsing's intro since it's cool how the producers placed a Jazz song while killing zombies.
ED: I'll have to say Naruto Shippuden end No. 16: I just love the song that's on while Sakura's taking a shower and fails to draw Naruto. Even though I stopped watching Naruto, every once in a while I re-watch this ending.
I actually have a folder where I download all my favourite openings to.
I just hate Youtube always deleting them :/
The one real problem with that is, the more often I watch an opening, the less amazing it becomes. So I try to not watch them too often

I don't know the names of all of them, but here afe my favorite op's:
Shingeki no kyojin (attack on titan) op 1
Crossing field - sword art onlind
Resonance - soul eater
Paper moon - soul eater
Fairy tail op 7
Masayume chasing - fairy tail op 15
Edit: Shingeki no Kyojin - Flugel der freiheit
Edit 2: Shaman king - over soul
I only have two favorite ed's:
Fairy tail ed 7
Glitter - fairy tail ed 11
"Soushou Innocence" OP for Akuma No Riddle (great opening, unfortunately the anime itself was quite lackluster)
"Sugar Song To Bitter Step" ED for Kekkai Sensen (amazingly jazzy and bouncy song that really fits the tone of the series)
"Brave Shine" 2nd OP for Unlimited Blade Works anime (especially the English fancover by Sapphire)
"Black†White" OP for Mondaiji Tachi (seems to be a somewhat popular choice here LOL)
"Dead END" 2nd OP for Mirai Nikki (very insane, frantic and catchy song. The lyrics are also entirely in thickly accented English, although good luck making them out unless you know them beforehand or they're literally shown on-screen as you're listening)
"Minna No Peace" 2nd ED for Gurren Lagann (LOVE & ROCK, LOVE & ROCK, PEACE!!)
"Sirius" 1st OP for Kill La Kill (once again, especially the English fandub by Sapphire)
That fucking one year bump and you act like nothing happened
easy picks, Bloody stream, End of the World. Both OPs from Jojo. I'd love to pick their EDs but they don't count since the music is Yes from Roundabout and Walk like an Egyptian from the Bangles. If I had to pick an ED on the spot.... Bakusō Yume Uta?
Death Parade wasn't the name of the opening though, it was "Fliers". Also you don't need to throw exclamation marks around like that LOL (especially when you're just going to put a period at the end anyway).

You do know that, when you compare it to previous posts, most of the people here use the anime name instead.
Personally, I also find this better because I hardly know any songnames for openings even though I do know the anime. Death Parade is a good example, I know the anime and like the opening, but I wouldn't have known what he ment had he just said "Flyers"

A new fav of mine is "Katararezu Tomo" (Concrete Revolutio opening). The song itself is catchy, opening animation is cool looking and the lyrics are a bit deeper and more ambiguous than your average anime-opener (♫Justice is not on my side. Only myself is absolute for me♫).
That reminds me, I really need to catch up on CR sometime.
Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?? [second question mark = season 2] - "Tokimeki Poporon" (Good GOD the MOE is strong with this one)
Yeah... remember having this weird feeling in the chest the first time I saw it.
Moe overdose? It's like each second of them jumping around and singing just hammers in on the cuteness.

I almost forgot about Kyouran Hey Kids. I've never seen the show itself (doesn't seem to be quite my cup of tea, from what I've heard) but I've listened to an English cover by amature singer LeeAndLie and it is freaking great. Check it out here and soak in the awesomeness!
Also with regard to songs I only know from LeeAndLie fandubs, Lapis Lazuli ranks high up on the list (as shown by how I used lyrics from it as my signature).
If we're talking about english covers of Hey Kids, I actually like Nathan Sharp's more, also kinda like the refrain "Will you go crazy" more than "Let's drive them crazy" the way he says it sounds just like in the original.
He also did a really good cover of Overlord's OP Clattanoia
