One thing I've really gotten to like about anime music is that rock/punk seems to still be pretty popular in Japan, whereas it's been virtually entirely replaced by rap/autotuned club music here in the US. I can't understand a lick of the lyrics, but a ton of anime has really catchy and upbeat punk, and as a 90s teen, it brings back fond memories. I'm a (marginal to average) drummer and a lot of the songs aren't too hard to play and a ton of fun.
I'll start by saying Tu Love Ru's season one opener "Forever we can make it" by THYME (also the animation that goes with it in the show is👍)

More recent stuff- I really like the opening and ending of I Parry Everything. Too bad the MC was the most dense idiot I've ever seen in a fantasy anime. https://youtu.be/jYyApBsD78o?si=vx8v1PHUpQVhEEmM
