The King’s Avatar[ALL STAR] OVA – Revenge by Jiro Wang

Jiro Wang + The King’s Avatar, I just can’t get this one lower in any list.

And oh, I love Jiro Wang too, and this song is purely epic and sounds so good for the ear.

The Land of Warriors by Jam Hsiao is the catchy and epic opening theme of Soul Land (Douluo Dalu) and it has been used for the first 60 episodes of the anime. It’s just energetic and definitely gives justice to how epic the fight scenes of Soul Land is.

 

9 Songs of the Moving Heavens

The soundtrack for this is called 心之逆鳞 (Xīn Zhī Nì Lín). While it may not be your own cup of tea but it’s definitely mystical in any ways and just purely beyond beautiful, fascinating, and beautifully animated. The song is truly something that could’ve been made in heaven, isn’t it?

The Legend of Qin Opening

If there’s anything that could be more beautiful, mystical, poetic and magical than this song, I wonder what it would be? Moonlight by Anson Hu is The Legend of Qin (Qin’s Moon) in-house opening song for most of its seasons and the emotions behind it is just beyond what I could comprehend. The song was used several times throughout the whole run of the donghua and shown with different animation in every season.

This is one is just purely insane and lit. I had been pulled by this song in to watch the anime the very first time that I heard it on YouTube. It’s pretty catchy, strong, and energetic.

Soul Land Season 2 不抛弃,不 放弃 by Oner

Just when I thought that Jam Hsiao Land of Warriors (Soul Land 1st Opening Theme Song) is epic enough, I was totally blown by how catchy and mild this one is. Definitely loving the current opening theme song of Soul Land (Douluo Dalu) which had been used since the 60th episode until now.
