My FMAB Opening List
Starting from my least favorite to my most favorite
#5: Opening 2 (Hologram)
This is not a bad opening at all in my opinion, its just hard to choose. The music is alright, along with the storyboard/animation of the entire thing. I just think that some of the transitions into diff scenes are kinda scattered. But i give this opening a 3/5

#4: Opening 4 (Period)
Watch on YouTube
Very good opening. I love the music, the scenes are great. I love the part where it shows alphonse's body and immediately cuts to a philosophers stone exploding (0:45). There is also a lot of meaning behind the scenes. Like the beginning of the op, represents the break in between ed and al. Love this one. I give it a 4/5
#3: Opening 3 (Golden Time Lover)
Watch on YouTube
The following top 3 were very VERY hard for me to choose. I adore all of these openings. Opening 3's song is a definite bop. I love the groove it gives off. The animation is also very very good. The scenes link characters together like Kimblee and Scar. Also I love how the animation peaks with the music, showing Armstrong's army of men in the heavy snow. I give this opening a 4.8/5
The Following I Consider Ties
#2: Opening 5 (Rain)
Watch on YouTube
I have a personal connection with this opening (the song mostly). My emotions swell up every time I remember hohenhiem's death (Episode 63). The lyrics of this song also have a connection to me and my s/o, which is why this opening matters so much to me. The emotions conveyed within this opening are astonishing. Ed running to hug truth resembling winry's figure just to end up with no one there, then his reaction in flames showing all of the resembled homunculi. Its truly an eye opening opening (lol). I give this a 5/5
#1: Opening 1 (Again)
Watch on YouTube
This opening is one of the best in anime overall. The action, characters, and meaning all tie together to make this fantastic. I love the part where ed is walking in a yellow drygrass field. It gets me every time! It also hypes me up and makes me wanna rewatch fullmetal alchemist!
Conclusion:
Well that was the list. Leave a reply letting me know which opening(s) were your favorites and why. Also if i should do an FMAB Closing list. Thanks for reading!
Brotherhood has five openings and I love every single one. Super rare for that to happen. I think my list would be:
5 - Hologram
4 - Golden Time Lover
3 - Again
2 - Period
1 - Rain
I know that's pretty unpopular though since everyone seems to love Again lol.

FUCK YEAH!!!

Both awesome openings i hated having to put hologram so low :(
There's no way I'm listening to Hologram again, the song will get stuck in my head for a week lol.
My list would be:
1b. Rain: Best Visuals imo
1c. Again: Classic
1d. Period: Part after 0:40 slaps hard ngl, I'm playing this when I'm in trenches of Yellow river in ww3
Also, can anyone link me to a spotify playlist w all the original ops, all I find is a bunch of covers
Ill make a playlist for u here in a min
Spotify is weird they only have like 3 of the op songz :(
yeah, the rest are covers by other singers :(
Edit: Still thanks for the effort :)
hi!! @x1phisternum @DACHero
all of the intros are on spotify, you just need to use the japanese names for some of them. i know this is a very late reply but i should be able to link a playlist will the ops (and eds most likely) here later. <3

Thanks!

there you go!! it's the OG (and full) version of every OP and ED from the series :))
Again has been my ringtone for years because I love it so much. Its such a great song and the opening has fantastic visuals. Out of all of them I think it captures the feel of the anime the best.

For all my FMA:B fans, what are your openings favorite to least? Heres mine:
1 - Golden Time Lover (OP 3)
2 - Again (OP 1)
3 - Rain (OP 5)
4 - Hologram (OP 2)
5 - Period (OP 4)
But lets be honest they’re all freaking awesome
4 > 5 > 1 > 3 > 2
1 - Period
2 - Rain
3 - Again
4 - Hologram
5 - Golden Time Lover
Top 2 are the only ones I'm not inclined to skip tho
Fsr people think OP 3 is terrible, the music and animation hit different to me
I was only thinking about the music. The tune for that song isn't my type.
I struggle to see differences in animation so i dont even bother trying
I get it
