Wrapping it up
I don't have great answers to any of these questions, and Day 27 and Day 30 are related, so I decided to do them all at once.
Day 27 - Favorite anime opening theme song
Opening/closing theme is hard for me to answer, because anime theme songs go in one ear and out the other for me. I don't remember them if I'm not actually watching them at the time. So it's inevitable that my answers to Days 27 and 30 are from One Piece.
That having been said, I usually find songs either irritating (so I skip over them quickly) or addictive. This (OP Opening Theme #2) is one that I enjoy so much I sometimes go out of my way to listen to it again. Not for the music, mind you, but for the totally cheesy Japanese voice-over at the beginning. I love it!
Day 28 - Favorite pokemon
I -- what. OK, I cannot answer this question on the grounds that I have literally never seen Pokemon. However, I went and found a Random Pokemon Generator, and it gave me #151, Mew. Which seems appropriate.
Day 29 - Favorite school uniform
Too bad Saa Koi ni Ochitamae isn't an anime
This is almost as bad. I don't really pay much attention to uniforms in anime, idk. However, in honor of Utena's re-release on DVD (and in honor of cross-dressers everywhere):
Day 30 - Favorite anime ending theme
Again from One Piece, Closing #2. (It's really just a coincidence that both of my favorites are #2.) This not only has a theme so catchy I literally can't get it out of my head, but it has all the crew members in their little-kid versions. SO CUTE. (I can't decide which wee crew member I like best. I do love that they only use this ending after we've seen the first five crew member's backstories, even though they're not particularly spoilery.)
Now to tackle all that re-reading, now that I've finally been reunited with my manga. ^__^

Guh, me toooo. I love so many (I mean, there is totally a reason why I have more anime songs than anything else on my computer at this point), but when I was coming up with my answer, there was actually one song that just totally WON. None of you are going to like it, though. LOL. Or, probably most of my 1st tier contenders. Oh well. :P
Re Last Kiss: I thought that was ok, but I LOVE the OP from that show! I'm sad you don't like the show, 'coz I did... Well, ok, actually, if the show had just been *Orphen* doing his thing and none of the other characters, I suppose I'd have liked it a lot more. :P
no subject
Now I'm really curious to see what it is. I like a HUGE variety of anime songs, so I sort of doubt I wouldn't like any of your top contenders.
re: Orphen - I love the OP, too, but it was mostly for the ED that I bought the CD.
To be fair to the show, I never saw more than a couple episodes, so maybe it got amazing later, I don't know. But the beginning didn't really catch my interest.

Oh, man, after I typed that... well, technically it went to hell because my OP is ......actually an ED. (jeezus, my brain, let me cut you out.) Still, the 1st runner up was basically a heartbeat away and it'd only been hard to chose between them anyway, so at least I didn't have to re-angst all over again thru the other runners-up. (Of course, for ED, I'd also already had a clear winner, so then I had to angst again). Lulz.
I don't know if I'd say Orphen ever got amazing, but it was a decent, solid fantasy story, at least under all the slapstick they tried to lighten the mood with. I really liked his character and the whole dragon thing and uhm, other spoilery stuff I guess. (I didn't, however, ever finish the 2nd series....)
no subject
Oops. Well, I expect you to tell us what it was anyway.
