Can anyone recommend me an anime with the following criteria:
>80/90s to very early 00s
>no anime autist relationship issues where grown adults don't know how to act with the opposite sex
>no dragonball z length battles
>no perverted crap
>crap made for autists in mind
Here's a list of some anime I think are good:
Akira
Fist of the North Star
Vampire Hunter D
The Studio Ghlibi films
Ghost in the Shell (movie only)
Battle Angel Alita
Dirty Pair OVAs Streamline dubs
Paprika
Ninja Scrolls
Dominion Tank Police
and a few others I can't remember
I've been recommended Outlaw Star which was OK for 4 episodes till it turned to shit and Yu Yu Hakusho which only has a nice opening theme and not much else.
If you have to, you can ignore, the 80s/90s limit but it's there for a reason.
Watch cromartie high.
Marmalade Boy
>>16827550
Looks promising but then a lot of other did too.
>>16827553
Sounds...not great. What's it about?
>>16827543
>no anime autist relationship issues where grown adults don't know how to act with the opposite sex
Ha... this is probably my most hated Japanese meme as well.
So your criteria is basically anything that was on Saturday Anime in the 90s?
Check out Robot Carnival, but be prepared to feel hardcore.
Berserk.
What would be a good anime with op's criteria for somebody who has never watched anime before?
>>16827593
Most of the ones I listed in the OP.
>>16827578
>So your criteria is basically anything that was on Saturday Anime in the 90s?
Not really, the ones I listed were on the VHS Manga Entertainment tapes.
But I'll check out Robot Carnival.
>>16827590
Watched an episode or so, sucked to be honest.
>SDF Macross
>Macross Plus
>Wicked City
>Legend of the Galactic Heroes
>>16827604
>Saturday Anime
I'm guessing that was an american thing? I think we had shit shown in Channel 4 at like 2 in the morning, in the 90s.
>>16827621
Yeah
Every Saturday morning starting at 6 am the Sci Fi channel would show like three anime movies from the 80s and 90s. It is really what put the channel on the map and the success made them change their business from informative documentaries to straight entertainment.
>>16827632
6am? What shit did they show since that seems kinda early for the violent ones? I'm guessing not things like Fist of the North Star?
>>16827656
They showed everything in OP's list but censored the sex, nudity and more extreme violence with blurs or just completely cutting it out and jumping to the next scene.
Contrary to what you may have heard, the US has gotten more conservative when it comes to sex and violence since the 90s in regard to TV. They could get away with it back then.
Besides, if you really want to show some shit then now you have the internet mediums so it doesn't matter.
>>16827666
Oh, minus ninja scroll and D. I don't think they ever showed that.
The first time I ever saw Akira was the edited version on Saturday Anime though. I'm sure if you googled around you could find a list of everything they aired if you cared enough.
>>16827666
Oh and also a comedian named Sandra Bernhardt used to host this late night show on that featured a showing of a soft core porn movie that had all the nudity blurred. I used to stroke it furiously to that show, don't remember which network it was on.
Basically, the cable channels before they got popular used to do all kinds of stuff. Since it was during what people considered to be off-time for viewers the FCC didn't care, or I guess maybe they were unaware but I don't see how that is possible.
People just complain about degeneracy now because of the internet and they actually have to be parents rather than having the government babysit their kids for them.
>>16827543
Elfen Lied
Monster
Death Note
>>16827697
>Elfen Lied
Good God I have never seen such a shitty series.
You've got to be trolling because Elfen is centered around three of the items OP says he can't stand:
>no anime autist relationship issues where grown adults don't know how to act with the opposite sex
>no perverted crap
>crap made for autists in mind
>>16827697
>Elfen Lied
God no. What he said>>16827708
>Death Note
Meh for about 10 episodes before it came apparent they were going drag on this cat and mouse chase, I ditched it. That and the annoying "quirks" of some characters.
>Monster
Never seen but I don't have much hope for it given you other suggestions.
Whoever recommended Robot Carnival, it's pretty good so far. Nostalgic as well.
>no autism
>no shounen battles
>no lewd
What's the point of watching anime then? Just watch some western series. But Ill give you some suggestions of mature anime for mature viewers such as yourself
Legends of the Galactic Heroes
SDF Macross
Planetes
Monster
Toward the Terra
Berserk (I don't care if you didn't like the first episode, it's not representative of the series. You'll enjoy it)
>>16827578
>robot carnival
MAH NIGGA
>>16827773
That movie changed my life as a kid and is partly responsible for who I am today. The stories of bravery, loss, sacrifice and love... God, it sticks with you.
It is fucking haunting.
If OP likes Ghost in the Shell they would probably like Armitage III.
>>16827543
Have you watched The Maxx? Its not an anime, but you might like it. It was a comic book first, if you like comics.
>>16827812
I liked the just 1st movie.
GitS:SAC was incredibly boring, can't even remember what the 2nd movie was about.
>>16827817
>The Maxx
Never seen it, but I want to keep recommendations within anime.
I'll do another thread for western stuff, if this turns out to be fruitless.
>>16827543
>80/90s to very early 00s
>no anime autist relationship issues where grown adults don't know how to act with the opposite sex
>no dragonball z length battles
>no perverted crap
>crap made for autists in mind
Fist of the North star.
>>16827834
a) Fist of the North Star is a guilty pleasure
b) 80s action films and bruce lee rolled into one
c) It fits most of the criteria since I've never seen the full series just the movie and OVAs.
>>16827852
d) Uncle Phil/Shredder is in it
>>16827543
>CTRL-F memories
>not found
>CTRL-F magnetic rose
>not found
Magnetic Rose
Seriously, drop anything you are doing, watch this! It's beautiful! It will change you opinion on anime, on animation, on films, it's amazing!
It's 3 short stories with unique animation and tone each and each one is great but my favourite is Magnetic Rose. Watch it!
>>16827906
FYI: Robot Carnival came before Memories and was created by the same dudes. Memories was their attempt to strike lightning twice.
If you haven't seen Robot Carnival then YOU need to stop what you're doing and catch up on something amazing.
>>16827910
Umm, thanks!
I'm allergic to mecha though (that's why I can't watch EVA) but I will check it out but I can't promise I will watch it.
>>16827543
Gundam. 0079, Zeta, ZZ, CCA, F91...
>>16827923
I can't watch eva because it is retarded shit of which the people who created it had no idea where they were taking the story, that is why they have had to remake it three times.
Don't let the name fool you. Robot Carnival is about human interaction, they just use robots as impartial observers that the viewer can relate to so you can see the absurdity of a lot of the things people do.
>>16827931
Now it sounds much more interesting!
Thanks anon!
>>16827925
>Gundam
Remember watching it on Toonami back then. Can't remember anything of it though.
>>16827931
Eva fails my
>no perverted crap
>crap made for autists in mind
criteria. That little trailer with all of the robot fights was all that was worth watching.
Robot Carnival was wicked though, gonna check out memories as well.
Ergo Proxy
Monster
Gankutsuou
Gantz
>>16827951
Gantz sucked donkey balls.
>>16827934
Watch it when you get some free time. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
>>16827944
We're talking about Evangelion, right?
I like the Gundam series. Unicorn that came out a year or so ago is by far my favorite, followed by 00 then Wing. I have a weird relationship with my dad so Unicorn really made me feel.
The stories aren't that great but I love all the machine designs and such.
>>16827963
>We're talking about Evangelion, right?
Yep, same guy who made Nadia: Secret of Blue Water, which was like a pedo's take on a Studio Ghilbi film.
>>16827973
Yeah... fuck Evangelion.
After years of resisting it I watched the old series and all the new movies last year and was mad as fuck. I want that ~17 hours of my life back.
>>16827543
How can you be a retro anime elitist and not have Evangelion/Gunbuster in that list. I guess Eva's relationships are pretty autismal.
Tekkaman Blade is pretty fucking great, but the first episodes are really shittily animated and it sometimes feels its lenght (50 episodes) and there are THREEEE recap episodes towards the end but overall it's one of my favorites.
Cowboy Bebop, I'm surprised it hasnt already been said. The characters are well developed and you learn more about them and get a better understanding of what defines them the more the series develops. I've watched it about 4-5 times over now and every time I watched it there was something new I'd pick up.
>>16828001
Probably because it is something everyone has seen.
>>16828001
Also adding to cowboy bebop, I'd say Serial Experiments Lain and the Ghost in the shell series considering you've only watched the movies.
>>16827543
Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn OVA. Like a 7 hour awesome movie.
You won't get all the references unless you watch 200 hours of anime, but if you are a Gundam virgin it is FUCKIN RAD
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUVDvW7YP1c
>>16828010
Well OP didn't mention it and it would be silly to assume otherwise.
>>16828010
I haven't seen aside from a passing glance.
I'll put that on my list but I hope to god it's not eva levels of hype/failure.
>>16827763
seconding planetes, very good series
>00
>>16828024
No, it is a good series. It just doesn't get talked about much anymore since it is pretty much universally regarded as awesome, so there isn't much to debate about in reference to it.
>>16828013
See
>>16827825
I have seen the series version, it sucked. I don't want to watch an anime where they infodump with static animation and goofy 'cutesy' characters that exist in a world that's at odd with their design.
>>16827543
I highly recommend Geneshaft.
it was a 13 episode anime that aired on anime-unleashed. it was kind of like a more realistic serious version of Gundam. by more realistic and serious, i mean the robot was flawed, it didn't have flashy designer armor, etc.
it takes place in a future where all of humanity is genetically advanced, but one girl has whats called a 'white gene' which is pretty much making her the equivelent of a human from the early 2000s (us) while everyone else is sorta 'programmed' to be superior in some way.
there is a LITTLE male-female autism with the main character, but its EXTREMELY justified by the fact that in this future romance doesn't exist. the two characters also have a bit of a sad connection in their past justifying the lead females anger at her male captain who she is obviously also in love with.
i cant recommend this anime enough, I'm about to re watch it myself. its one of the few examples of perfect sound story telling in television. whiel there are some japanese quirks, you could watch it and feel like it was written in english first, as opposed to translated.
it also used the 'ancient aliens' theory in the plot almost a decade before it became mainstream with the documentary series.
they apparently do have it on hulu:
http://www.hulu.com/geneshaft
>>16828035
I fucking love 00 but the first season is way too stretched out. Also, the movie was kind of lame despite the awesome combat scenes.
I'd have a hard time deciding between Unicorn and 00.
>>16828019
Also check out the OVA
Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan - Tsuiokuhen
Not at all like the series, very serious and really really good. Prolly the best OVA I have ever seen.
ALSO if you like Paprika, Look at Perfect Blue.
my last recco, Jin Roh the Wolf brigade (kinda a slow 2deep4uish but it's entertaining.)
>>16827825
>GitS:SAC was incredibly boring
the second season was a pretty big improvement in that regard imo. I really disliked the first season but liked the second one a lot.
Anyway OP I think you should check out Street Fighter 2: V, it feels like they took a hong kong kung fu movie and turned it into a series.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=487jDtv2C2o
>>16828043
>it also used the 'ancient aliens' theory in the plot almost a decade before it became mainstream with the documentary series.
The show was capitalizing on an already existing cult of stupid people who already read Chariot of the Gods.
>Has never seen Stargate, Stargate SG-1, or Atlantis
Speaking of which if OP want to watch something other than anime the Stargate SG-1 is the bee's fucking knees.
>>16828066
i used to watch that movie all the time as a kid but never watched the show, is it any good?
>>16828070
Yes.
I have watched every episode probably 3 times.
It's got some stupid/weird shit but really just buy into it.
Also Amanda Tapping is a fucking fox and is probably the archetype of what I am attracted to in women.
>>16828066
>the show was capitalizing on an already eixsting cult of stupid people who already read chariot of the gods
im aware. thats why i said 'before it became mainstream' not 'before it was invented'.
>>16828084
I would argue the fact that they made a multi-million dollar Roland Emerich movie and the book was HUGE it had long been mainstream.
>>16828058
Seen Perfect Blue, while a decent movie there was no reason that they couldn't made a live-action film out of it.
>Samurai X OVA
Eh..I'll put that as lower-priority but I'll watch it. I liked Samurai X, if only for nostalgic reasons.
>Jin Roh the Wolf
>2deep4u
Again ehhh....
>>16828060
>SAC 2nd Series
I watched that as well, but I don't remember much of it other than being as boring as the first. I'm sure there was an OVA of the series as well.
>Street Fighter II V
I've seen a couple of episodes a long, long time ago. Might finish it off.
>>16828001
came here to suggest Cowboy Bebop.
This next suggestion probably doesn't fit what OP is looking for, but it's a fantastic series and well worth watching: Tatami Galaxy.
There's a bit of autism (surprise surprise, it's about an awkward kid finding love), but as the series unfolds, it flips a lot of shit on its head.
>>16828088
considering no one talked about it as an actual theory until the ancient aliens doc, id say no. it wasn't some hidden away niche, but it wasn't like prometheus where everyone woudl watch it and say 'dude this is just ancient aliens'.
if you wanna argue against that be my guest, i stand by what i said.
>>16828093
>Seen Perfect Blue, while a decent movie there was no reason that they couldn't made a live-action film out of it.
False
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oz49vQwSoTE
>>16828098
prometheus is essentially just a 'geneshaft' movie. but wiht more plotholes and unanswered questions

such a shame this guy died, he was miyazaki's real successor
>>16828099
While interesting, it doesn't convince me that Perfect Blue couldn't have been done as a live-action movie.
Not saying this about his other movies, just Perfect Blue though some changes would have to be made.
>>16827543
Try Rose of Versailles.
>>16828102
>Geneshaft is like Prometheaus but better
I don't think that helps Geneshaft.
>>16828098
>considering no one talked about it as an actual theory until the ancient aliens doc
Nobody does today except for retarded people. It's just as much a theory as Children of the Gods.
>>16828137
If it was done live action then it would have looked and felt completely different.
By saying that you are invalidating how much the choices by the director matter.
>>16828163
We'll agree to disagree.
Searching up on google, apparently it was made into a live-action film in 2002 though it was 'boring'.
I don't know, you may be right.
>>16828160
im not arguing about whether or not its a theory. but you can bring up 'ancient aliens' and literally everyone knows what ur talking abotu.
bring it up in 2001 and the concept of itself is something people rarely heard of outside of peopel who actually wached things like geneshaft or stargate or what have you.

There's a version from like 1998 or something
>>16827543
Watch the rest of Satoshi Kon's stuff if you like Paprika.
>>16828262
Will do.
>>16828245
>Hunter X Hunter
The name is putting me off, sounds like a long ass shouen serial.
Patlabor
Planetes
VOTOM
Legend of the Galactic Heroes
Berserk. Be aware that there are some newer versions of the show made into a movie with that weird 3d-faux anime shit. Even worse, that's the only one that's going to delve deeper into the manga.
In other words I'd watch the original animoo up to the end then delve into the manga.
>>16828273
>sounds like a long ass shouen serial.
it is actually. i watched the first 10 episodes wiht a qt3.14 asian and it was nice, but its about as shounen as it gets. it focuses on like two 11 year olds who look like 2 6 years old, and then some third eleven year old i think? and then some really old guy who follows these kids around like a pedophile. they fight monsters i think, but i never got to the part hwere they actually hunt shit, they were still trying to get their license like 10 episodes in.
>>16828294
Pass.
>>16828302
i would. dunno why that guy was suggesting it. i mean it was 'fun' but...
Did anyone suggest cowboy bebop? BecausE cowboy bebop
>>16828316
Several times.
>>16828316
>what is ctrl+f
On top of that it's entry level. I mean it's good, but everyone has seen it at this point.
Trigun? pretty much anything else that came to my mind was already said but once again - Berserk!
theres only one answer
>>16828345
Trigun sucked balls. Can't believe I watched the entire thing.
its younger than what you wanted but try Redline. simply for the amount of work put into drawing it.
>>16828351

neon genesis evangelion
>>16828361
Did you even read the OP?
>>16828366
yeah, you have to be an autist for a request like that. evangelion is soliiiiiid
>>16828351
I agree, it moves so slowly. It starts getting decent when people start dying and then it just ends right when the story begins to get interesting.
I always assumed there was a manga that went beyond the crappy ending but I never cared enough to look into it.
Also, lol at the person who suggested gantz. That was such an edgelord show filled with Japanese trope bullshit...
>>16827697

Haven't been to /a/ in over 5 years now and this just brought back vivid memories of shitposting in "ITT:overrated shit" threads. Thanks familia.
>>16827543
The Fist of the North Star
>>16828379
The entire show was supposed to be a fuck you to otakus by Anno
It's hilarious that people adore it so much.
The list so far:
Robot Carnival (was pretty good)
Memories
The rest of Satoshi Kun's stuff
SDF Macross
Macross Plus (since I keep hearing about it)
Planetes
Legends of the Galactic Heroes
One series of Gundam (I don't think I could take more than one)
Berserk (One more try)
Cowboy Bebop
Maybe:
Samurai X OVA
Geneshaft
Street Fighter II V
Jin Roh
Redline
Fuck No:
Eva
Gantz
GitS:SAC
The rest I'm still not sure about.
>>16828442

Too bad it never got dubbed.
>>16828636
>>16828619
>more not on the chart
You know what, scratch Gundam.
>>16828656
Stargazer is two down and six over on the chart, "MSG SEED C.E. 73: Stargazer."
My opinion if for whatever reason you can only watch one would be Unicorn. I love Stargazer but you really do have to watch 50 episodes of the mediocre Gundam SEED in order to understand and appreciate it. I also love 00 but it takes like twelve episodes to set everything up and get going so it would probably just be frustrating to someone new to the series.
>>16828705
Forgot that you also have to watch SEED Destiny to follow Stargazer.
Shiki
>>16827931
Fuck off. They knew what they were doing with the story, the only problem was that it got budget cuts towards the end. But End of Eva solved that issue.
Rebuild and the Magna are just seperate canons.
>>16828734
It's all crap.
>>16827982
Fuck off. Evangelion portrays human relationships in their most bare state, to the fucking bone. It actually shows human issues with communication.
>>16827977
Faggot.
>>16828734
They were both designated separate canons years after the fact, that is a blatant admission of their poor planning issues.
>>16828735
This. Eva is such a shit manga/anime that it is nothing but a meme these days and everyone knows it. I assume that is why you had such a visceral reaction to it being called garbage.
>>16828093
How the fuck do you find Ghost in the Shell in any way boring? Fucking pleb.
>>16828745
>Evangelion portrays human relationships in their most bare state, to the fucking bone. It actually shows human issues with communication
It is shite, one-dimensional characters, Shinji's father in particular who we almost literally see in one pose.
>>16828751
I liked the 1st movie and the 1st movie only.
The series is boring cos it spends a whole chunk of time for exposition through info dumps; characters literally standing frozen while talking for long periods of time.
>>16828773
One dimensional? They have a complexity in the original series which I am hard pressed to find in other media, let alone anime.
>>16828748
It was clear from the start that Rebuild is its own thing. The manga is done by Sadamoto, not Anno. It's its own thing.
Why do you think they didn't know what they were doing with the original series?
>>16828790
>One dimensional? They have a complexity in the original series which I am hard pressed to find in other media, let alone anime.
Confirmed for troll.
>>16828792
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o4UQntM4Zjw
Not at a troll at all. The characters in the show are all great examples of humans with problems with personal relationships and struggle with their own self-image and self-worth.
>>16828797
>Not at a troll at all. The characters in the show are all great examples of humans with problems with personal relationships and struggle with their own self-image and self-worth.
Please stop trolling.
>>16828797
You genuinely think I am going to watch a 'character analysis' by some weeb?
>>16828804
Please stop being a pleb. I'm seriously not trolling. It's just a shame that you don't appreciate what Eva does.
>>16828808
Then you are confirmed for pleb, if you genuinely believe that
>They have a complexity in the original series which I am hard pressed to find in other media, let alone anime.
But I understand why this piece of shit resonates with autists.
well if you haven't seen Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence, do so.
>>16828807
Up to you if you want to ignore my example of the character depth in the show.
>>16828825
Will do.
>>16828797
>The characters in the show are all great examples of humans with problems with personal relationships and struggle with their own self-image and self-worth.
You realize that Dostoevsky was able to do that with just over a 100 pages? And it laid the groundwork for the classic Taxi Driver which covers the same ground in just under 2 hours?
Something that that heap of cack wasn't able to over a series?
OP watch K-ON!, Nichijou, the *gatari series, Sidonia, Madoka, Jormungand, Ore Monogatari, BACCANO, Hyouka, Durarara!!, K, and Gin no Saji.
If you don't like any of those titles, you're a faggot and should fuck off 4chan.
>>16828865
I only recognise K-ON and that's only from avatars, the rest I assume is the same sort of crap.
Well, I guess this is as much relevant advice as I can get from /adv/.
I'll go check the ones on my list starting with Memories.
>>16828851
I prefer Turgenev
>>16828865
fuck you
>>16827543
yokohama kaidashi kikou
paranoia agent
dennou coil
devilman ova
monster
lain
mind game
kemonozume
tekkonkinkreet
do it op
Hunter x Hunter for sure.
>>16829088
What's the matter?
Where did the 2d character touch you?
>>16829119
monogatari and madoka are shit and urobutcher is the banksy of anime
>>16829099
Paranio Agent comes under satoshi kun and I've watched tekkonkinkreet, not quite sure it was. Devilman OVA maybe, I remember it being in the trailers and it gives same vibes as Guyver.
The rest look a bit suspect, if you don't mind me saying.
>>16829197
hmm in what way
i can see why kemonozume would be offputting (style could be considered ugly and too unconventional), people consider lain and monster to be boring, etc
>>16828495
In his defense, the Berserk anime was pretty bad, and that's coming from a diehard fan. I would only suggest the manga.
>>16829344
agreed, the movie adaptations of the golden age arc are much better than the anime but whether the cg is palatable or not is debatable.
also if op enjoyed the souls series he would probably be able to appreciate berserk, which was a big influence
>>16827543
Couldn-t find somebody that already suggested it. Which fucking pisses me off really.
Wings of Honneamise or Royal Space Force OP.
But its only for people with really high taste in cartoons, so I doubt you-ll like it.
>>16829224
It's more the grouping of lain and monster together that makes me think it is suspect. I've seen lain in the same breath as other 2deep4u anime.
>Kemonozume
>"beast claw" 2006
Eh...
>Mind game
Actually LOOKS interesting, not sure if it actually is. Same art style as tekko. Will have a look.
>yokohama
> "This is light years beyond almost all the manga being translated and published in the US."
I remember other crappy anime getting rave reviews like 'Welcome to the NHK'.
So forgive me if I'm sceptical of this one.

Way past the early 00 criteria and Gurren Lagann sucked.

>only for people with really high taste in cartoons
Damn.

im not normally into "romance" at all but kemonozume was bizarre enough (the animation and colors, was directed by masaaki yuasa who worked on mindgame) for me to like it. the type of strange that yuasa's good at, not the forced wackiness you'll see in the latest slice of life piece of harem shit.
not trying to shill or anything i'm just a pretentious artfag
lain and ykk are there mostly because of the atmosphere and art, which i found comforting

Might look into it after finishing my list. I don't mind romance either but this is anime we're talking about where saying the word kiss makes characters blush like a bride. I'll take your word for it that it's not like one of those harem trash.
Lain I'm definitely not going to touch.

Damm right anon.
Few people will like it, because of their horrible shit taste.
One of the first anime films I saw when I was young. I still love it.

Man, Sydonia is garbage... both the manga and the anime.

evangelion
Gungrave
Samurai Champloo
Gun x Sword
Blue Gender

Giant Robo the OVA
Big O (goes full Eva towards the end though)
Gundam OVAS (0083, 0080, 08th MS Team)
I liked Escaflowne but maybe you wouldn't, even though I have similar standards as you.
I'm going to HEAVILY agree with everyone in this thread who said Legend of the Galactic Heroes, and strongly insist that you follow that advice as soon as possible.
It is the best animated series I have ever seen in my entire life, a true gem of the medium.

>Black Lagoon
Aside from being shit, poorly animated and just generally tryhard, it also fails OPs
>no autist anime relationship issues between adults
really badly.
One last request, what anime films and series had double dubs?
I know Akira had a streamline and a pioneer dub (which sucked).
Has anyone recommended psycho-pass yet?
It's really quite good, the main protagonist is a young girl fresh out of the police academy, but there's little to none of the cringey autistic stuff - just plenty of minority report meets matrix goodness.
Watched Magnetic Rose which was pretty good, but kind of cliche.

I remember psycho-pass being lumped in with other 2deep4u anime.
