Feel free to list a couple of your personal favorites of anime openings and endings. I'm curious about how similar/different/refined taste people have. It'd be cool to briefly tell us why (whether it's the anime drawing style, song, graphical display, or whatever...) But do place your choices based on the opening/ending and not by the anime's storyline.

From the animes I've seen, I like:
*Second opening from "Hikaru no Go" --- I loved that song and the catchy ambient theme while sakura petals scatter slowly in the end.
*Second opening from "Saiunkoku Monogatari" --- great song and the graphical sequence blends with the song beautifully.
*Seventh ending from "Inu Yasha" --- good song, the ending is made so much like that of an epic. I really like the portray of that huge moon and the image of kikyo appear amongst the twilight.
*The opening song from "Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi" --- What a great character the anime developed and she is very well defined throughout the whole opening.
*Sixth ending from "Naruto" --- great song, it's quite unique to display steps in coloring and shading of 5 beach paintings (Paku, Sakura, Ten-ten, Ino, and Hinata).
