Suikoden II Anime: Creditless Opening & Ending Drop

NBC Universal just released the creditless opening and ending for the Suikoden II anime, now airing in Japan. The opening theme is by amazarashi, with a digital release set for October 7.

Ever wanted to see the Suikoden II anime's opening and ending without all that text scrolling over the animation? You're in luck.

NBC Universal has dropped the creditless versions of both sequences for the Suikoden II anime series. The show has officially kicked off its broadcast across Japan and is also streaming through multiple platforms, so fans outside Japan have ways to tune in too.

The opening theme is "Kanashimi Sae Otonabite," performed by amazarashi. If the song has been stuck in your head since the first episode, you won't have to wait long to own it — the full track is scheduled for a digital release on October 7.

On the ending side, the theme is "closed eye sun." The source material cuts off there, so details beyond the title are still under wraps for now, but the creditless version gives you a clean look at the visuals that accompany it.

Creditless openings and endings are always a treat for anime fans. They strip away the credits and let the animation, direction, and music breathe on their own — perfect for rewatching, screen-capping, or just appreciating the craft that goes into these sequences. For a beloved RPG series like Suikoden II, that spotlight matters even more.

If you're a longtime Suikoden fan, this is another sign that the series is getting real momentum in its anime adaptation. Between the ongoing broadcast, the multi-platform streaming availability, and now these clean sequences, there's plenty to dig into while the episodes roll out.

And with amazarashi's full opening song landing digitally on October 7, you've got a date to circle on your calendar. Whether you're here for the story, the music, or both, the Suikoden II anime is steadily building out its presence.

What do you think of the opening and ending themes so far? Will you be picking up amazarashi's track when it drops?
