Pre-2000s anime

It's been a few weeks since we had a thread so it time to get cozy and discuss some retro anime. What have you seen recently? Currently I'm working my way through Creamy Mami and then I'll follow that up with Kinnikuman.

Dream hunter rem is like anime psychonauts with more violence and cute girls

Just finished REM. It was a ton of fun. It's like every 80s cliche rolled into one, including a completely unexpected and unexplained mech just showing up out of nowhere.

Recently watched this. It's pretty fucking awful and the story goes nowhere, but it's interesting in that it's like the Japs put every early-to-mid-80s American action movie into a blender to make it. If you want to know how 80s Japs thought of 80s Americans, this is it. Plus it has super-detailed and realistic depictions of American towns and cities, with real company and brand names.

Let's predict the next 500 posts:
>"I'm watching [one of the 20 or 30 shows from the 1978-1999 period that everyone praises as classics, everyone has seen and the only ones people talk about]"
>"[one of the 20 or 30 shows from the 1978-1999 period that everyone praises as classics, everyone has seen and the only ones people talk about] is so good, fantastic taste bro"
>"[trashy high budget OVA / movie that pretty much played the worst excess of the medium to appeal to teenagers and even back then was considered to be lowbrow ]has so much SOUL"
>"[TV anime or OVA that was rightly forgotten because it was boring, uninteresting, cliched, poorly made or a mix of all of them] is such a hidden gem of the golden age of Japanese animation"
>Post discussing a post-2000 show, even a 2010 decade one, using the same "this show is totally like the pre-2000 classics" excuse
>Cherrypicked images comparing a high budget movie made during Japan's economic bubble vs a low budget web animation show made during recession-hit Japan with the words "what went so wrong?"
>People bitching at this post
Remember, if you can make this quasi-general using the same images and opening statements, then I can post this every thread.

I guess, but why would you want to?

If you feel that the same things get discussed over and over, why not actually contribute to the discussion improve the quality of these threads instead of actively working to make them the shit you complain about?

This OVA is everything that is right with 80's anime OVAs. I love everything about it and the fact something like this no longer exists is a shame. It's also a shame literally no one can find ONE decent fucking copy of it. You'd think there would be at least one pristine VHS rip pf it but everything I find online is in awful quality. A company like Discotek Media should license it and give it a proper remaster.

im new to all of this, what do you like about creamy miami?

>if you can make this quasi-general using the same images and opening statements, then I can post this every thread.
I like how you knew someone was gonna call you out on this so you insecurely threw this in to shield your fragile feelings from getting hurt.

Maybe I can bitch about this here. The Patlabor OVAs and movies are in the same timeline, right? But in the OVA Tokyo is taken over by rogue military elements...and then again in the second movie. So in the span of just a few years, maybe less, Tokyo was twice occupied by rebel forces, and in the movie no one even mentions the first time it happened?

As great and gorgeous as the second movie is, I couldn't stop thinking about this when I was watching it and it really took me out of it.

Your opinion is your own, but nah. The story and characters are just non-existent in it. The story also doesn't get resolved, it just literally stops. It's very jarring and weird.

Pretty sure the movies and OVAs and TV are all different timelines

It's not often you can watch a halfway decent magical girl show that isn't complete cringe. It's decent but it's not really anything special to be honest. I enjoy the aesthetic for the most part but it is a tad formulaic.

Everything I've read says the movies are a direct continuation of the OVAs.

So what you're saying is you want some pre-2000s recs

>The story and characters are just non-existent in it. The story also doesn't get resolved, it just literally stops. It's very jarring and weird.
How can it both not have a story and also have a story that doesn't get revolved? One statement contradicts the other. It's not a great OVA on a technical level when it comes to the plot but I don't judge old short OVAs the same way I would with movies and TV shows. I'm looking at it strictly from an enjoyment level. If you're looking for great characters and a great plot, there are better options, but this is fun just for the eye candy and the absurdity of it all. It's the same enjoyment you would get out of watching old schlocky horror movies. As long as it's not boring, you can get a lot of entertainment out of it, but only if you focus on the positive aspects of it which there is a lot of.

People watch those OVAs for an injection of high budget action anime, you wouldn't go into them for story

I've never seen the porn version. Is it worth checking out?

bump

In the middle of my Fortune Quest comfy watch. Plot is dumb and half the characters are useless or annoying but damn if it isn't fun.

The lore gets deeper

Eh...kind of. Not as porn because it's too goofy to be arousing in the least, but it's pretty fun to watch because of that. You can see why they dumped the hentai angle and decided to just make a normal show out of it.

Finally got around to watching Angel Cop.
It was way less gory and offensive than advertised, but I then again I also watched the SUB and not the god awful fucking dub. The unironic "Jewish Conspiracy" plot in the later half was unexpected and amusing.

I also recently finished SHADOW ART.
Which was way more gory and offensive, but at the same time I can't stop thinking about it. It feels unironically in touch with the naive brutality, heinous cruelty, and misery of children- the kind that shits out school shooters.
I heard the English and German dub stopped at around the 5th or 6th episode because they thought it was going to be 'fun' and that if anything feels more appropriate. Like, there's an analogy or lesson here I'm missing, but understand intuitively because I still remember what it was like to be a child.

Never heard of Shadow Art, sounds interesting

Angel Cop was right.

Boy do I have some snake oil to sell you then
