Started watching Macross 7 this week. I brushed it off many times thinking it was going to be shit.. I'm on episode 10 and I wanna listen to his song.

Also Veffidas is my M7 waifu.

BD for old anime is even worthwhile? I know many are just lame upscales and the "cleaner" make the flaws more aparent

Currently watching Dirty Pair and enjoying the hell out of it, planning on watching Bublegum after I'm done with Dirty Pair franchise

Just finished watching S1 of Yamato and 2199 in unison. I really liked 2199 over the original, however I can still appreciate the original being great/very good at the time of it's release.

Just started watching the Patlabor OVAs (on ep 4). Liking it. Was surprised how feminine Noa's VA sounded, thought she would have been more average sounding.

This. I dropped it after 10 eps a year and a half ago, but I've been devouring it since I restarted. I wish we could get 7 with Frontier production values.

Or Frontier with 7-quality characters.

>>141670714
I dunno about first, and I believe the original film negatives were 35mm. Still, crazy that the team managed to get a hold of all the originals to make this.
>>
>>141670837
35mm cel can only go up to 1080, anything past that looks bad. I believe that belladonna was done in 72mm which is 4k.

What do you mean? It was already had a NA release. There's no BD remaster anywhere yet.

I meant BD, my bad. Pretty sure Toho had Japanese BD release for the 25th anniversary.

As far as pre-2000 shows I'm watching.
I'm almost done with Victory Gundam, and I'm around 12 and 16 episodes into Dai-Guard, and Medarot.respectively.

I also just started Galaxy Express 999, and I'm kind of bummed that there are only uploaded BDs up till episode 33.
After I finish Victory Gundam, I'm going to watch Turn A, which I'm pretty sure is 1999.
>>
>>141670991
I'm planning to start that tomorrow as soon as I finish Macross Frontier. From what I here it's at least as good, if not better.
>>
>>141671605
I finished Medabots recently, the finale is bonkers. You'll love it. Not really pre-2000s though, but whatever close enough to let it slide.
>>
>>141671607
Get ready for stock footage, filler episodes, and Power Rangers villains.

It's still really really good, though.

Fuck yeah Akazukin Chacha. Was thrilled when that got fansubed a few years back, never thought it would.

I wouldn't mind hearing the English dub that aired in Singapore, etc., in the 1990s. It was pretty bad overall, but it did have a few moments of charm.

Some are upscales of old scans (eg LoGH) and some are new scans from the film on modern equipment (eg Gunbuster).
The latter look so much fucking better than the dvd era it's out of control.

Watching the first Gundam.
The tactical action stuff gets tiring after a while but it's nice to see some downtime where the characters are interacting outside of their mobile suits and spaceships.

Haven't gotten very far but my favorite episode was Garma's death.
The scene where Amuro visits his mother and shoots the soldier was also a nice touch; it added an extra layer to Amuro's development as a character, which is something I didn't expect to see in a kid's show.

>>141672109
I've seen it before, many times, but I used to only have it on VHS. I finally got it on BD just a few days ago, so I'm pretty excited to re-watch it.

Chacha had old subs back in the VHS fansub days. Surprised to hear that it's a relatively new sub in digital.

Slice of life anime used to suck so hard until Azumanga Daioh came along.

Deedlit is a such a great Elf though, kinda torn about her being a "High Elf" rather than a forest one. Mildly amused when the Witch in Dark Souls 3 was named Karla.

Why do old anime have that faded look? It's the same with irl film. I know there's deterioration in physical film or cels but is there any way to maintain the quality indefinitely?
>>
>>141679707
Dude it's the photographic process that makes stuff look like that. It didn't look significantly more faded back then than it does now. At least for anime. And on top of that, if you look at the production cels, they did use more muted color palettes.

And it generally looks a lot better than digital coloring anyway so why are you complaining?

Finished Dirty Pair a couple weeks ago and enjoyed it a lot, have the following lined up in my backlog: Zambot 3, Oniisama e...,Captain Harlock SSX,Great Teacher Onizuka. Going to start Harlock after I'm done with 999 since I'm 1/3rd towards the end and I've been enjoying it a lot.

With Ideon being the only other Tomino project I've seen outside of his Gundam material, would you say Zambit 3 is the next logical choice?

Also since this is a pre-2000 thread I've been buying a lot of old manga lately: Astro Boy omnibus, Onwards Towards Our Noble Deaths, Push Man and Other Stories, Gits, etc.

Anything I should be on the lookout for which is getting released from the good old days?
