Zankoku Tenshi is way more iconic, both in the West and in Japan.

It's easily the most well known from it. If you were a kid growing up in the 90s/early 2000s you bet your ass you played that bike flash game that had this song in the background.

do you even anime, op.??

>>161822889
That's not what weeb means either. A weeaboo in the original definition is a wapanese- a white person who wants to be japanese. The more modern, correcter definition is that it's anyone who isn't japanese who desperately wishes they were japanese because they think anime is what japan is really like when in fact it's a country of depressed, overworked and passive aggressive people who aren't sure whether to be afraid of the north koreans or to hope that the norks finally end it all for them.

I think Go Speed Racer is more mainstream overall, just because of how damn long it aired. The show started in 1967 and was still airing reruns on television on and off up until the early 2000s. The Pokemon theme song is only really known by people who were in the right age group during the late 90s and early 00s.

I skip OPs I don't like when binging a completed series. What is your thought on EDs?

>>161823875
Was it consistently popular for all that time, though? I mean, I'm 23 and to be honest, I'd never even heard of the series before that live-action movie about ten years ago. I guess that might just be me, but I also don't really remember my peers talking about or referencing it, and certainly not singing the OP (which I don't think I'd heard until right now). And, again anecdotal, but my parents who watched it as kids never mention it outside of once or twice when ads for that movie were on, and I doubt they could sing the OP if you asked them to.

It's because no one remembers haruhi.

Yellow subs are also more legible.

The reason is there's absolutely nothing new came out of the franchise since 2011, beside a shitty spin off nobody cares about.
