You now remember that feeling...

Every time I see this I go to H&C before inuyasha

>>146217566
I actually went to Zankyou no Terror for some reason this time.

>>146217529
Fuck, this ED is so nostalgic for me. I don't even have nostalgia for Inu Yasha in general, but this ED gets me.

Between this, Witch Hunter Robin, .hack//sign and Seed, it takes me back to what got me back into anime. Man, I used to love coming home to watch Bionix on YTV.

>>146217529
Yes anon, I do remember that feeling
That magical, tingling feeling that made anime feel so real and special and significant
What is it about the Inuyasha ED that draws out that feeling? What was it about that ED that made it so magical?

>>146218447

I know that feel. It reminds me of junior high days and the 3DPD I used to have a crush on who liked Inuyasha.

>>146217529
Fuck... Why is this so magical?

In hindsight Inyuasha wasn't all that great because of the filler but I think the magic of that image and those endings in particular just showed us during our younger days that endless adventure, even if it was filler, wasn't a bad thing.

The nighttime lights remind me of the nights I stayed up watching this, it's a very good feeling. The songs were passionate as all hell too and just relaxed you.

It's that 90s Japan feel that the first ED captured real well.

This always reminds me of old Adult Swim and how fun it was to stay up late or record the stuff on VHS.

>inb4 co

When you had dial up, AS was the shit.

I know we all love to hate on Toonami/AS, but let's be honest, how many of us would have loved anime if not for those 2 programs?

>>146217529
I love this ED, but I hate inuyasha, Is this normal?

>>146219796
It's pretty normal to dislike a particular series but enjoy their music.

This is why people shouldn't shit on "entry level" stuff. We all needed to start somewhere.

While not every show on Toonami/AS was a 10 out of 10 or a masterpiece, they all had something in common. They told a story and had a message. I think it was this aspect and the very creative characters and world that drew me to anime. Keep in mind that this is during the time when tv shows were just shitty sitcoms or formulaic procedurals, with very few ambitious shows like X-Files, Space Above and Beyond or Twin Peaks. Anime gave me what I wanted in television: an actual story

>>146219834
You're right, and as I've gotten older, I've stopped doing that. The nostalgia for when I was younger and first introduced to anime helps give me an understanding when some young kid is talking about SAO. Do I think SAO is shit? Yea I do, but honestly it's not as bad as some of the older anime I watched.

>>146219931

>>146219775
For me its Animax. Toonami marketed their anime as "cool cartoons" rather than anime where I come from but Animax didn't hide shit.

>>146219931
Yuyu Hakusho's 1st and 2nd endings will always stay with me. I've always preferred the Jap version a bit more tho.

I don't see the connection. Yes, we all had bad taste at some point, but that doesn't really change anything. Imagine if an anon didn't know how to do multiplication. Yeah, we were all uneducated at some point, but I'm still going to call them a fucking retard, and I'm still going to call the SAOfag's taste awful.

>>146219991
>go back to see some old anime I thought was cool when growing up
>watch it now
>realize I was a moron

Personally don't give a shit if people watch entry anime but that won't stop me from calling it shit, I just won't shit on people for liking it.

>>146219271
>juniour high days
>3DPD crush who also liked it
Fuck man, are you me?

>>146220078
But why would you call a 6yo a retard for not knowing multiplication. Most people that start with the entry level shit are young, or are young to anime. So why chastise them like they're someone who's seeing over 1k anime?

Every night before i went to sleep it was on Adult Swim

>>146220153
Wait, are we talking about on /a/, or in real life? In real life I don't mention anime in the first place, and even if I did I wouldn't argue taste with some middle-schooler who's watched his first anime, because what would that get me. On /a/, though, if I encounter a person like that, I'll tell them to fuck off, because the goal is to not have underageb& or newfags here for that exact reason - because discussing things with them gets you nothing. They can't contribute because they don't have a base yet, so they need to fuck off and lurk for a while.

>>146220150
There were so many grills who liked inuyasha that it isn't worth counting. I still like when Bleach started coming around and the inuyasha vs. bleach crowds started up.

>>146220168
Yeah every once in a while Toonami will do some throwbacks but it isn't like they use to be. They have recently started getting better.

Inuyasha EDs were elder god tier.

Shinjitsu no Uta > all. Fight me bitches.

If you're six years old you shouldn't be on /a/.

Being hostile to newfaggots keeps this board, more than any other, a decent place to be.

>>146217529
I don't even have many feelings for Inuyasha but I cannot deny how god tiers the EDS were, especially My Will.

>>146220153
No one's hunting down six year olds to tell them they're retards for not knowing multiplication, they're telling six-year-olds who wander onto a math forum for 18-year-olds to fuck off.

I remember staying up late every night(and often falling asleep early) to watch Inuyasha. I love how simple anime was back then for me.

>>146219834
desu I remember a while back some 18 year old was saying that back in 2011 Aria the Autism or whatever it was called was his entry level anime

Entry level means different things and not all of them are good

>>146217529
I just discoverd this show. The ending is so modern yet magical and emotional. Thats what i love about anime, and 90s media in general. I feel after 9/11 the whole world and media became less magical and emotionless and dull. Atleast modern anime keeps some of that beauty and wonder from the 90s.

Honestly, I skipped the ED every time after I first heard it.

>>146220947
Only kids who were raised in a pre 9/11 world will understand.

>>146220947
Too many fucking shows about terrorism, also the general mood of hope that the adults in the 1990s radiated after the fall of the USSR was washed away by the beginning of the war on terror and a new age of paranoia

And now it's even worse with the attention-seeking self-righteous imbeciles who only minutes after another terror attack in which people are massacred will always say "whoa don't blame the religion of the guys who did this for their religion otherwise you're the real bad guy"

Oh and after 2008 the economy went to shit and never recovered to the 1990s boom period, and the japanese thought their housing crisis would only be a temporary recession back then but has instead become a 30 year long period of slow growth for them

Feel it niggas, feel it

It could only capture around 30s of audio but it made me so happy, because I used it to record one inuyasha ED.

That's when adult swim first came out. They only had anime on Saturdays at first. I don't know what year Inuyasha started running on the weekdays, but it wasn't THAT long ago.

For reference, I'm 3 years away from Wizard status.

That YTV block was the best.
Although I never stayed up to watch Witch Hunter Robin. Was it any good?

Samefagging at its finest.

Sailor Moon was always on Toonami 4 PM sharp EST back in the late 90s. I won't forget.

I can't.

>>146217529
Sorry familia, the only thing this reminds me is that where I live Inuyasha airings were followed by Rurouni Kenshin, which was a much better show and had better OPs and EDs too.

The first two EDs are my favorite, but I always had a soft spot for Come My Way as well. I was never big into Inuyasha even as a middle/high schooler only watching it between other shows, but it was perfectly serviceable and I remember it looking pretty good for a long running show. I would miss huge swaths of episodes and still mostly understand what was happening, which was kind of nice as a casual watcher.

>>146221667
Maybe, but I don't remember that. I remember Space Ghost Coast to Coast used to air at night on CN before adult swim was a thing, and Moltar was the original host of Toonami before they invented TOM, so you may be thinking of that.

Who else here watched Sailor Moon on USA network years before it went to Toonami. Pretty sure it was my first ever anime because of this, though maybe it was Speed Racer due to reruns, but I can't quite remember.

>>146217529
Fuck I used to watch this during my Chuuni days. I wanted to travel with Inuyasha so badly it hurt.

>>146221986
It painted a pretty comfy and adventurous picture of feudal Japan whenever there weren't demons pushing everyone's shit in.

>>146221756
If I remember correctly, Adult Swim was Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights only for the first couple months before spreading to a nightly format.
And yes, for the first few years it was mostly anime.

>>146221873
I remember watching Sailor Moon on Fox in the morning before school.

>>146221426

Too late. Shitty cash grab reboots of 90s shows are now everywhere with increasing frequency. Watch the powerpuff girls reboot and the upcoming grimdark edgy samurai jack reboot. Power rangers is also getting a gritty movie reboot, I thought I heard full metal panic was rebooting. Eva was rebooted, toonami was rebooted, new dragonball garbage and more to come.

A boy has a right to feel.

>>146217529
That part of the ED always caught my attention because the fan in my father's computer did the same thing as that Ferris Wheel, with pretty much the same patterns in the same rotation.

Funny thing is, we put that computer in a closet and eventually I took it with me when I moved out with the intent of doing something with it, but never did. I now use that case and fan though because I bought a GPU that was too big for the case I was using previously. Now every time I use my computer I'm reminded of the Inuyasha ED.

I'm from Asia, and believe me Toonami didn't tell we were watching anime/Japanese stuff even when they broadcast CardCaptor Sakura. And they were quite incompetent as well- they first aired DBZ in 2001/2 but only got up to half of the Frieza saga. Imagine people's frustration when they would cut off just when Goku appeared on Namek. And it went on for like 7/8 years too- after Internet got popular they got a ton of abusive mails from fans of India and Pakistan after which they finally broadcast rest of the seasons.
