What the community says

Oshi no Ko – 01 – Idol leads the anime opening ranking with 1449 ELO points over 175 duels, ahead of Black Clover – 10 – Black Catcher and Jujutsu Kaisen – 04 – SPECIALZ.

The top tier clusters tightly, with the sharpest gap appearing between ranks 4 and 5. Jujutsu Kaisen – 03 – Ao no Sumika holds fourth place with 1438 ELO points, 17 points clear of Chainsaw Man – Kick Back in fifth. The podium itself reveals a fascinating contest: Black Clover – 10 – Black Catcher sits just 5 ELO points behind the leader despite accumulating 895 duels, while Jujutsu Kaisen – 04 – SPECIALZ matches that same 1444 ELO score but records a win rate of only 38 percent. The ranking's lower reaches tell a different story, with InuYasha openings occupying the bottom three positions. InuYasha – 06 – Angelus sits last at 851 ELO points with a 28 percent win rate across 343 duels, suggesting these older entries struggle to compete with the modern selections that dominate the upper echelons.

This ranking draws from 9054 duels submitted by 16 players across 216 anime openings, updated on 10 October 2026. The dataset captures a wide spectrum of series and eras, from classic InuYasha tracks to recent releases like Oshi no Ko and Chainsaw Man. The contest remains open: cast your votes in head-to-head duels and shape the hierarchy of anime's most memorable opening sequences.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
