Not only is Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood one of the most popular and beloved anime out there, but it has two of the greatest opening themes (in my opinion) of all time: "Again" by J-pop singer YUI and "Hologram" by J-rock group NICO Touches the Walls. YUI started the show off strong with her distinctive style that makes her one of the most unique and recognizable singers in the biz, leaving a tough act to follow. But NICO followed up beyond expectations with "Hologram," a song accompanied by one of my favorite anime opening sequences of all time. The track also left a huge emotional impact when it reappeared as the closing theme of the final episode when the viewer was shown pictures of the Elric Brothers and friends' beautiful futures following the main conflict of the series. Thank you, FMA, for just being so wonderful all around!
