Best 80's/90's Cartoon Intro Theme

As the title states if you had to narrow it down to one choice what it would be? I chose the intro from dbz and it was tough but if I have to choose I'd have to go with this. Was debating this with my wife this morning and she chose pokemon although wasn't really a fan of the series but because we agreed to base our choice on three criteria which were 1) Presentation 2) Song/theme 3) Does it get you hyped for the show? So what show's intro would you guys argue is number 1?

I would say DBZ first opening!! 8) (Raditz-Cell sagas)
But in Japanese version.

Certainly not the US one... Far too "manly" or focusing on violent scenes without reason... Not the Toriyama  spirit...


In addition there are tons of good US opening:
Jayce
Turtles (old one)
...
 
I say 1980’s turtles. The way they hyped up the song makes you cringe to scream 'Turtle power!'

I also agree with the DBZ japanese intro, which I remember playing here in PH when it aired in the 90's

Of course there's Voltes V
 
yeah a lot of great intro's were apart of shows back then, I just was reminded about a lot of shows I had forgotten like bots master
 
WOW you can only pick one. I think that's unfair considering your asking us to choose one cartoon from the best era of cartoons lol.  I love He-Man, She-ra, Jem, Sailor Moon, X-men, TMNT, Voltron there are so many hahaha
 
yeah I recently just started watching the 90's spiderman from episode 1 it still a great representation of the character imo
 
There are lots of cartoons I can list and talk about in this topic. So many great nostalgia of the cartoons.

Dragon Ball Z song. LOL I remember 15 years ago my bro was composing a techno version of "Rock the Dragon" on a keyboard probably in a high tempo I think.

I always watched Sailor Moon all the time and I really liked it. It was my first Anime to watch and that inspired me to draw. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to draw so I don't draw a lot.

I liked TMNT but I rarely watched it.

Captain Planet taught me about caring about environment of land.

This Sonic intro theme is the only thing I remember listening to and I liked it.

Bots Master. I had forgotten about it too! I think I watched it around 2 or 3am in the morning. Even the troll show I forget the name.

Does anyone remember Mutant League? It's never creepy to me though. ;D

Even though I liked watching X-Men, I couldn't have time to watch it.
