After a couple of lists/clips that people were passing around AJAS and debating over, I wondered whether I could come up with a list of 100 anime tunes that I liked.
Well, I finally did...just. I had to stretch it. I based it purely on whether I liked the tune. Liking the anime didnt have to be mandatory.
