how is it? i love the movies

Watching a Getter Robo episode every now and then. Loved Combattler V and Voltes V, but nothing has filled that void yet.
Also sparsely watching Cardcaptor Sakura. The majority of it doesn't appeal to me, but I love the magic elements when they pop up. You can feel the love they put into the show.

Cherry picking.
Tons of modern anime have love poured into the animation. Just look at most Kyoani shows.

Same principle with this one. Its okay on its own, but if you watch the original Gundam first, it gets a whole new level of depth.

Yes, Ruri is a bad Rei Ayanami clone, thats what makes her best girl

>>140943604
The first couple of episodes are pretty generic. Most of the cast (Ota in particular) don't have nearly as much depth as they do in the movies. However, it gets a lot better as it goes on.

You don't see the irredeemable shit that lasted the decades.

>>140943604
Not him but I love it. I've never seen the movies so I can't compare them but I love how the tv show manages to find a nice blend of the mundane stuff (ordering food, characters personal lives, drinking competitions) with the action and plot moving episodes. I really love the super outlandish ones too ie. Noa and Kanuka are chased by a dragon, Goto and the crew discover a haunted burial site etc. I'm only on episode 30 so far and my only complaint is the team dynamic with the new girl isn't as good as it was with Kanuka.

It is subpar compared to modern anime in almost every respect: art, animation, music, direction, storytelling, voice acting.

At least Gundam had some interesting characters and an interesting plot. The only redeeming point I can see in Ideon is finding the few key elements that inspired Evangelion.

Not really true. Generally the only places you're going to find webm-bait sakuga and multitone shading is movies and ovas, but old tv broadcasts actually looked good for their budget starting from the early 80s. You can make simple styles look good with proper talent. Also, things stuck on LD or VHS rips betrays the actual quality behind the animation.

You don't get pure visual vomit like this.

I finished Fist of the North Star last month (watched the whole anime over the course of the year, and then picked up the manga where the show left off).

Fucking fantastic series. It has so much heart underneath the gratuitous violence. A friend pointed out to me that it's basically a Western drama with Kung-Fu instead of guns, and I can kind of see it.

One thing that still really bothers me: which backstory of Raoh and Toki is considered canon?

I think you'll enjoy it. I loved it as a kid, and I was afraid it wouldn't hold up if I watched it again without my nostalgia goggles. But it totally does. All the characters are lovable; most of the joy of the show comes from watching them interact. Somehow the monster-of-the-week format never gets boring.

Zambot 3 is pretty great. I was not expecting such a high bodycount every episode, and kids dying left and right. Around episode 7 or 8 it got pretty dull, but picked up in the early teens again.

Also I started watching Casshan and it's fantastic so far.

>>140945382
And it is sadly 90% shitposting. You can't really discuss anything on there anymore. It got really bad a few years back and never recovered, especially since it has zero moderation. The generals of all things are the least shitpost-filled threads. Also the 70s/80s thread.

>You can tell love was put into it in older anime

I feel like the digitization has taken the human touch out of animation. The people working on it are too far removed from the final product. Digital animation (and CGI especially) feel too... mechanical? Artificial? I'm not sure what I'm trying to say, but it definitely lacks that "love" that you'll find in traditional cel animation. It's too perfect, it's too clean.

Which isn't to say that there's not good digital animation out there, because there is. I just think it's harder to make your love show with digital animation.

Few episodes left of Macross and Medabots, both are awesome. Still slowly working through Doremi season 1.

>>140945693

Season 1 is probably the weakest season of Doremi (still good though).

The best parts are when it drops the magical girl thing and just does character episodes.

She gets a bit better as time goes on, but that's mostly as Sailor Moon rather than as Usagi. I honestly like her whiny crybaby character. It's fun seeing her turn from a weeping idiot into a superhero.

I've seen it all except Bio hunter.

Alita and 3x3 are half assed adaptations, Keaton and Crying Freeman are boring. City Hunter gets way too repetitive. Guyver is too much of a dumb action show.

VHD and Wicked City are okay, but they're just movies worth watching for their visuals and not proper shows.

A-ko, BGC, and Dirty Pair are worth watching. Takahashi shows are good if you like Takahashi.

>>140947283
People bring it up all the time, along with the manga board idea. The answer to both of those is that splitting the community just makes more of a hassle and won't magically induce a wave of people watching and wanting to talk about obscure shit.

In the beginning, I didn't really like it but I figured it would have to be a slow burner considering the length. With all the villains doing their miraculous cackles I softened up and had some fun with it. The visual direction was my favorite part of the series. Plus, I think Oscar is a great character. I enjoyed it, melodrama and all.

>>140948305
I do this thing where I wait a long time to watch the final episodes of shows I have too much fun with. I don't want the ride to end.

Did anyone else re-watch Legend of the Galactic Heroes season 1 in time for the novel? I think that was a good idea since I wouldn't have been able to spot the differences like Merkatz being with Rhinehard from the start or the extended backstory on Rudolf in the prologue chapter among other changes like Rhinehard asking Kircheis if he could do what Rudolf did in front of a Rudolf statue instead of a grassy slope.

Are the localized two in ones worth buying? I heard they had some errors fixed in versions released previously and the paper quality is quite nice supposedly.

I recommend Ideon a lot and it's one of my favourites, be prepared for the plot to stagnate a little towards the end but other than that it's a true classic.

Opening theme is one I could never get tired of.

>>140952219

How does the Hokuto no Ken anime compare to the manga? I was actually surprised by how many sad moments and tear jerker scenes there were, people weren't kidding. Didn't really care much for the plot post-Raoh since it seemed like the author was struggling to make it interesting, I liked how one of the final villains was a nice callback to how the early villains looked in the series.

>>140952638
The Shin arc in the anime is much different than in the manga, but it's done better. In the anime, he actually gets character development, instead of being just a motivation for Ken to do shit. The plot is also restructured a bit to make him a bigger bad guy, and smaller bad guys before him become his minions.
Also a lot of gore and head-exploding is semi-censored in the anime because it was actually considered too violent for TV.
So, manga is better for the sake of pure violence. And the last 2-and-a-half volumes were never animated, so you'll end up reading it at some point if you pick up the series.

It's weird because there are what I can assume to be DVD rips on Youtube that have no echo in the audio for whatever reason. It's a shame because the show looks terrific but the audio sounds like it was recorded on a laptop microphone, and I have no idea if it's something with the FLAC or not.

>Generally the only places you're going to find webm-bait sakuga and multitone shading is movies and ovas

Just like 80s and 90s anime.

>Also, things stuck on LD or VHS rips betrays the actual quality behind the animation.

Stuff like Maze would look like shit even on BD. Ugly shows are ugly regardless of their video format.

>You don't get pure visual vomit like this.

Cherrypicking. I can point to something like Tekkaman Blade as an example of crap 90s animation just as easily as I can point to Hyouka or Hibike! Euphonium as an example of good modern animation. NGNL isn't indicative of trends, nor does it represent modern animation as a whole.

It's more or less the same.

There may be a couple of recap episodes in there, I can't exactly remember. But you can just skip those.
Actually, after Toki dies, I think there's like 5 recap episodes in a row. The anime was kind of bad with this.

>>140954062

Yes. The only series of note you listed are City Hunter, Dirty Pair, Bubblegum Crisis, Vampire Hunter D (Bloodlust) and Urusei Yatsura. Almost all the rest are mediocre OVAs or movies that were (rightfully) forgotten.

It's obvious that you need to watch more anime.

every anime on that list literally strives far from the norm and mediocrity, and none of them are "rightfully forgotten" because they were all popular and appraised works in the countries they were published in outside of the us at the time of their release. Maybe you should actually take the time in actually watching them instead of reading plot summaries and reviews made by the modern teen audience of mal.

>I feel like the digitization has taken the human touch out of animation. The people working on it are too far removed from the final product. Digital animation (and CGI especially) feel too... mechanical? Artificial? I'm not sure what I'm trying to say, but it definitely lacks that "love" that you'll find in traditional cel animation. It's too perfect, it's too clean.

I know it's not anime, but with American CG films you can oftentimes feel the love and effort put into making a good film. I think it's just that Japan is still behind the curve on using CG, and uses it to cut corners rather than using it as a legitimate animated pursuit in itself.

It doesn't unless you're comparing some swanky movies and OVAs to TV anime, as people often do.

Animators still animate the same way they always did. They draw the frames on and pen and paper and then hand them over to the other production staff. The difference between now and then is that now the animation frames are digitized.

Watched Night on the Galactic Railroad today. I'm not sure of my final opinion on the movie - sure it was symbolical, deep and beautiful, and it had very good animation and music, but at the same time it was also veeeery slow and at times boring.
I think I'll need to rewatch it at some point to make up a final opinion.

You watched it because of this thread? I'm honored.

The first few episodes they try to create a plot, then at some point go "screw it, lets make comfy filler" and then a few episodes before the end they go back to a plot.

Keep in mind the animators were trying to replicate the manga artwork, which is why the thing looks and feels more early 1980s instead of 1993.

I like it without irony, I not claiming it's anything but a 80's B-movie in anime form, but there was no irony to my enjoyment. The "anti-hero" being a flat out war junkie is certainly the logical conclusion when it comes to examining the action hero if we want to get analytical. I'm also a fan of Buichi Terasawa's "Goku Midnight Eye," light on plot and character by Kawajiri's direction give this shallow work much needed flair. The manga/ova takes place in the year 2014, according to the 80s.

Crying Freeman is an entertaining piece of pulp of fiction. It does lack on the suspense, after a while you know Freeman is coming out on top with no problem.

So far I've seen:
>Harlock series, Arcadia and the 2014 one
>Galaxy Express 999 films
>Queen Milenia's movie
>Gun Frontier
should I watch the respective series? am I missing something?

SDF and DYRL is a hell of a ride, ain't it?

That last battle is considered to be pretty iconic, actually.

If you're watching older Macrosses to catch up for Delta, I strongly recommend, after taking a bit of a break, to look into Macross 7.

It's a absolute hate/love kind of things, but it establishes the precedent from which future Macrosses emphasize music on, just as SDF does for establishing the universe

Oh hey, I actually just got a physical English copy of this recent.
It's pretty good, but the plot is really simple.
It has good fights, strong likable characters, and a good sense of world building and ascetic unity even if majority of it is set in a rather bland desert.
I'd definitely recommend watching it for the fights and characters, but maybe not for the plot. It's pretty much, there is an unstoppable alien, and Iria's got to stop it.
Iria is one of the best examples I've seen of a well written female lead so that's really neat.

>>140972040
The ending is such a mixed bag for me,
because watching the eclipse for the first time was such a wonderful but horrific moment, and then the show just ends on a ridiculous cliffhanger, which got me to instantly go read the manga to figure out what happens next.
It's such an intense ending, albeit abrupt.

I just finished watching that like 2 weeks ago. I really enjoyed it, and I thought that You're Under Arrest was a great example of how to build relationships between characters, especially Natsumi.
The movie was really good too and surprisingly intense.
When I first watched the OVA's I was expecting a buddy cop series, but got Initial D instead. It wasn't until the actual series I got the character interactions I was expecting.

this list has Aika, Cleopatra, MDGeist, Seraphim Call, but doesn't have Saber Marionette J, Slam Dunk, Hoshin Engi, Dragon Quest Dai's Adventure, Demon City Shinjuku, Vampire Hunter D or Future Boy Conan

The Harlock tv series and Endless Odyssey have one continuity
Arcadia of My Youth and Endless Road/Orbit SSX have another
and Harlock Saga has another (and apparently shares it with the Emeraldas and Galaxy Express 999 films)
so you can choose either in no particular order

>I've had Ranma on hold on episode 40 for nearly a year
That's almost exactly what I did with UY, but an Internet friend started watching it a month ago so I picked it back up. Since then it's felt a lot more entertaining, but it's still the kind of show I can't watch more than three episodes of in a row. I can't say how it compares to Ranma because I'm unfamiliar with the franchise, but if you're looking for a funny, sometimes (but only sometimes) romantic show with lots of anibabes, then I'd say it's worth a shot. The art becomes noticeably betterbetter as the series progresses, so just stick with it for awhile.

>>140980878
Meant to quote >>140980237 for the first sentence.

What is better, Ranma, Urusei Yatsura, Maison Ikkoku, Inu Yasha?

>>140980921
Just watch Maison Ikkoku first and then move onto UY or Ranma.

>>140980955
Thanks. What about Kimagure Orange Road?

>>140980921
Ranma is pretty much equal to Urusei Yatsura as SoL comedy (tough I prefer Ranma)
Maison is for SoL romcom
Inuyasha was good at the start for adventure, but it's like Takahashi wouldn't decide between an adventure or romance plot halfway trough

>>140980971
I watched KOR right after Maison Ikkoku because I wanted something with a similar feel. From what I remember MI had a lot more heart, the character's felt more relatable (college-aged), and the sillier parts of the show were more comedic and entertaining. One thing about MI, though, is that the romantic misunderstandings happen often and they can be very frustrating to watch.

>>140981165
