Trying to identify an 80s or 90s anime I remember seeing in a magazine when I was little (around 1995). The image looked sort of like what I attached. Some sort of girl and a dude. She's holding a glowing orb that illuminates her and his face very dramatically. Kinda like holding a flashlight under your chin. Anyone have any idea where that could be from?
That's a really vague description.
Any other details? Maybe connected to plot.

No clue, sorry. It's just that one image that has made an lasting impression. I believe there was kind of a fantasy/supernatural theme to the whole thing. Maybe medieval. It may have been part of the Manga Video catalogue during that timeframe...?
bump for OP
im interested as well
That is fuckall to go on.

Lina does that in Slayers a lot. Is it fantasy?
If it's a sci-fi... Crest of the Stars?
>>146153778
Sure that it was an anime? A picture itself is not much to go on. Every second game in history has some anime-looking art behind it.

Literally no popular Japanese game in the 90s used an anime art style.

>Slayers
That's the first thing I thought of as well
>>146155065
maybe Ruin Explorers?
>>146153778
Maybe it's actually from the example you've given but from a different point in time? Because, otherwise, that description is vague as fuck.
>>146155010
I could probably give you 30 examples but let's just end this with Chrono Trigger. Literally every second game used anime style.

What a perfect tomboy character too.
Clearly Escaflowne.
>>146155547
Who you calling a tomboy?!
>>146155547
What a cute boy
Cardcaptor Sakura has a pic like that when she capture a clow card https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCnsQYKbyKs
Also in the Clamp's X movie

FUCK YOU!
Jesus Christ, you're all faggots. Fuck off to /wsr/.
While we're vaguely requesting things:
I remember when I was a kid, around early 2000s, I'd sometimes borrow a video from the local library. I think it was one of the Pokemon movies. One of the trailers on the tape before the movie started showed a film with what looked like some sort of flying island, and metallic flying creatures - they might have been dragons? I'm trying to remember this from vague as shit memories so I can't really get more specific than that. It might not have even been /a/, it might have been western animation.
>>146156395
that was a good OVA
Ghost Fighter?
>>146156692
Howl's moving castle?
>>146157023
Na, definitely not Howl's. It looked like these flying shits were being dispatched from some big flying island or base.
>>146156791
Good call! Found this image which is super close. Imagine a mashup of this and the original picture...
I started thinking it might have been one of the cutscenes from Lunar on the Sega CD, but I can't find any equivalent image from that game.
Shit, this is driving me nuts.
