Is just. Everything they do is talk about the last month anime and some shitty last season waifu
in my opinion old anime deserves a place.
this kind of thread always dies because they are not fast enough. unlike some shitty theads on /a/
also. /k/ and /m/ are always spamming their shit in old anime threads.

You watched it when you were much older
and probably watched it subbed instead of dubbed and missed out on best (living) character
>>133338233
I really couldn't get into it myself. The plot didn't seem to be particularly interesting and Aisha was obnoxious as all flying fuck.
>>133357858
Aisha a best.
>>133358004
It was 2patritian4U
>>133358031
Considering you can't even spell "patrician" right, I doubt your taste is all that much better.
Trigun and CB were way better space westerns.
Are those BD rips or something? The quality's really good.
You know, these threads would be a lot more enjoyable if half of the posts in them weren't crossboarders whining about how much they hate /a/. If you want your fucking retro anime discussion, then get to discussing, instead of the bitching 90% of these threads devolve into.
>>133358135
kek no.
Trigun was fucking awful. So fucking cliched and full of terrible fucking characters and a bumfuck retarded ending with shitfuck horrible buildup.
Bebop was just shit. Slow, plodding and so far up its own ass that it was choking on its own head

Eh, I don't feel like it. It's late, and I'm too mentally worn out to write giant paragraphs about why Trigun is at least decent or why CB is really good.
>>133359404
>still having no argument
Trigun is still shit and Watanabe is an overrated hack. Bebop was shit, Champloo was shit and Dandy was shit.
>>133352982
Is it JUST me or did many of the 90´s and late 80s shows had a sci-fantasy setting or a more "created" or "fictional" world so to speak.
Nowadays it's all about high school students and shit, of course, not all of it but the fantasy setting is mostly present in hentai or fanscervice harems, why is this?
I guess for the same reason there was a time when Anime was all about super heroes and when it was all about poor orphan kids living in europe
Wanting to fuck Aisha clan clan is normal right?
>>133359515
Yeah, neither do you, buddy. Have fun with your greentexting shitposts. I'm sure they'll amount to something one of these centuries.

Lina pretty much formed the basis for my appreciation of smaller breasts.
>>133359541
>not all of it but the fantasy setting is mostly present in hentai or fanscervice harems, why is this?
Mostly because of the good old Japanese censorship laws. Sci-fi and Fantasy was quite prevalent in the old days as well.
>Can't show a human penis so we will attach one to a random monster.
Though I think that particular loophole is closed now it's still traditional and these days adult shows are at least in theory targeted at those of us who watched anime in the 90s. As such I think we can be pretty sure that in a few years time that market too will be dominated by harems & high schools as well. Hell, the transition has been going on already.

> The manga will never be completely translated.
> There will be no continuation of the manga.

I swear people don't know shit when it comes to good things.
>>133373062
Hey, at least there's plenty of high school life setting shows.
>>133373324
> Hey, at least there's plenty of high school life setting shows.
It might not be the deepest, the most beautifully-animated, or the most original series of movies, but the Urotsukidoji franchise is without a doubt one of the greatest, most amazing achievements of Japanese animation.
It's got practically every genre in it:
-romance
-action
-horror
-fantasy
-sci-fi
-road movie
-post-apocalyptic
-mythological epic
-family drama
-nazisploitation
-comedy
-slice of life
-tragedy
-cyberpunk
-battle shounen
-kaiju movie
-and of course pornography
and at no point does it feel incoherent or tacky. It's certainly got continuity issues but overall it's incredible to see how many sources and traditions it borrows from and how well it manages to blend them together, and to combine all those themes, tones and narrative approaches almost seamlessly, and to use all those sources of inspiration to come up with some of the most insane and fun shit of all time.
It's not just porn it's a fucking masterpiece, and entertainment of the highest caliber.
I'm disgusted by the fact that at least 80% of /a/ never even tried to watch it.
If you haven't watched at least the first series of OVAs you should head directly over here:
>>>/trash/
also Megumi is best girl even though Alector is a close second.
>>133373491
There is no such thing as great achievements when it comes to pornography.
>>133373491
Jesus Christ, I had no idea there was an actual trash board now. What the hell is moot doing?
>>133373618
Who?
Oh you mean that Asuka-loving pleb.
He's gone, now, we have a new overlord who has good taste in waifus.
>>133373590
you haven't watched Urotsukidoji
>>133373671
But anon, Asuka is the best girl.
>>133373590
You're crazy. Without the pornography, there'd be nothing to push the limits and serve as a barometer for what's acceptable as fanservice in non-pornography. How to evade censorship, what you can get away with, tentacles...
Not to mention that nearly all great mangaka got their chops drawing smut or tutoring under a smut mangaka. Those boys can DRAW.
what's the single ugliest frame of animation you've seen to date, /a/?
>>133332933
just started to get into Slayers about a month ago. watching it on Hulu and rented the novels through my library. really digging it so far, great stuff
>>133373745
Any frame from Initial D.
>>133373701
maybe in the context of Evangelion, where every girl is a horrible piece of shit with almost no redeeming qualities, but in the greater scheme of things, she's garbage.
>>133373815
In the greater scheme of things, you're garbage.
>>133373671
Did Hiroyuki say who his waifu is?
>>133373839
Yes.
did you miss the gall force threads we had for three days to celebrate his patrician taste?
>>133373866
I haven't been on /a/ for quite some time.
Which anime shows do you like that you will never get a remastered blu-ray version of because the masters are lost?

Also I see we both watched that mellowlink video on youtube.

>>133381987
I seriously need to finish the manga. Been in my backlog for God knows how long.
>>133382123
It ends up going on for way, way too long, but there's a ton of great arcs in it the anime never touched. I remember dropping it after they introduce the warewolf girl.

I don't want /ar/ because it'd be slow and full of nostalgiafags who'd get bullied out of /a/, and I'd have to go there to talk about old stuff even if I wanted to stay here.
>>133383571
The speed of this thread should be enough to discredit such an idea anyway. The best way to get to discuss an old show on 4chan is to just post about that particular show on plain old /a/.
>>133339566
Hikaru was my loli gateway drug.
>>133338138

>>133368637
They take the original 16mm film the cells were shot on and scan it in HD.
>>133387320
Wasn't it 35mm?
Also, TV series blurays when?
>>133387605
Films, definitely.
OVAs, most likely.
TV series was definitely shot on 16mm.
But that never even got a remastered DVD. It may be tragic, but the original film stock may be lost to time.
>>133332933
I'm going through my backlog, should I watch
Sailor Moon
Ranma
Slayers
first?
>>133388680
Sailor Moon - All Female Power Rangers
Ranma - Sitcom
Slayers - High Fantasy, nothing more nothing less
What are you in the mood for?
>>133387605
Almost all TV anime was 16mm. Cardcaptor Sakura was 35mm thanks to NHK shekels, which is why it looks so good on Bluray. I think it got an HD airing on the old MUSE analog system too.
>>133388610
>It may be tragic, but the original film stock may be lost to time.
The problem most of these shows were shot on film but edited on video. At the time it made sense, it was cheaper and easier than using an editing table and an optical printer and physically splicing film together, and you couldn't see any difference watching in SD on a CRT tv.
What this means that even if the film still exists, it's all out of order and missing fades and titles and any other effects, and basically has to be reedited for an HD version.

>>133389098
i thought i remembered sailor moon being really funny. aren't all 3 heavy comedy?
>>133391130
They are.
Slayers is the preeminent comedy fantasy series.
Sailor Moon is more silly monster of the week fare for little girls, but it does develop strong characters whose interactions are very fun when they're allowed to be just girls.
Ranma is great, but marathoning it can make the comedy feel a bit tedious. Especially if Akane ever starts to grate on you.
>>133391719
sailor moon is fucking power rangers
80s>90s.
Even when it comes to trash like Daimajuu Gekitou or Bobby Ni Kubittake.
