What was so special about 90s fantasy anime that can't be reproduced anymore?

for the most part it was actual fantasy and not isekai
>>159739456
the lack of "isekai" and all the shit it carries along with it like lackluster writing, cheat abilities, shameless wish fulfillment, bland self-insert protagonists, or worse: MMO/video game elements. The list goes on but it's not that its can't be reproduced; it's just that authors have become lazy and thus gotten used to pulling the isekai card for a template fantasy series in small hopes of it gaining some popularity.

>>159739417
well, this guys are damn good party.
>>159739560
This dude knows what's up
>>159739456
they had adventure
they had to overcome adversity and work their way towards achieving their goals, whereas 'fantasy' anime nowadays have special snowflakes who just need to press a button to win over obstacles, or just walk through or over obstacles using sheer plot armor
>>159739674
I don' mind isekai,the mmo/rpg elementshit what is fucking fantasy up
>>159739560
even Isekai was pretty good back then though. Fuck El Hazard is Isekai Harem and it still manages to be fucking awesome.
The only real difference is that anime used to be about pushing the anime. Even if there was a source material you couldn't sell just a prologue.
>>159739456
There's still good fantasy anime, they're just few and far between now. Garo: Divine Flame was fucking great, for example, and that was a spinoff of a sentai/live-action series.
The "alternate world" concept is just a setting, nothing more. There were plenty of isekai fantasy anime in the 80s and 90s that managed to tell a quality story that just happened to take place in an alternate world. The concept itself isn't inherently bad, it's the execution that matters.
>>159739674
>or worse: MMO/video game elements
It's rare, but they can be used well. The Rance game/VN series uses in-universe video game mechanics brilliantly, for example.
>>159742334
No it fucking doesn't. Japan doesn't know how to a do a reference to save their lives.
>>159742428
So you know fuck-all about the series and are making baseless claims. Good job.
>>159742456
>Hur dur you don't know the games
fuck off
>>159738013
Nice. I miss them.
Best PLOT ever.
>>159739456
Honestly, just nostalgia + good ol' hand drawn animation.
>>159744717
Anime is still hand drawn.
>>159744682
>that ova where they walk around naked
>>159744749
Is it?
>>159744866
So, every ova.
>>159744934
>posts a CGI film
With exceptions, yes.
>>159744623
I miss them too. They should hurry up and make more Slayers anime already.
>>159745154
If it continues along the path of Revo/Evo-R, I'd rather not get more. I have no hopes for it ever happening, but a more proper adaptation of the books could be really great. Seeing Xellos actually being an unsettling monster for once would be pretty damn cool.
>>159745274
My ideal continuation for the anime would be adapting part 2 while keeping Amelia and Zelgadis, while not going overboard with the silly gags or introducing any more mascot characters.
Even just an OVA would be good.
>>159745405
I'd be more than happy to get some pointless Slayers Special stuff again.
>Slayers was great, why dont they do more
Where were you chuckle fucks 8 years ago?
>>159745614
Not really caring, since the purely anime original seasons of slayers were very weak, and S4/5 didn't couldn't even manage as much fun as Try, which was the worst of the original seasons by a large margin.
Ive tried and for the absolutely life of me I can just not into Slayers
also more people should watch Gokudo
>>159745614
I don't care what you say, I still want more Slayers.
Even Revo/Evo were better than 90% of seasonal anime these days.
>>159742288
>sentai/live-action series.
>sentai
No, you fuck. It's Tokusatsu. Sentai refers to Super Sentai, an specific franchise that is more well known by it's USA bastardization (Power Rangers)

Hi, /m/. It's nice to see that your autism still knows no bounds.
>>159745801
>autism
That's literally like calling anime "dragon ball" "pokemon or "naruto"
So, have you seen that Ghost in the Shell film with Scarlett Johanson? It seems it was based on some chinese naruto.
Tell me if that doesn't sound absolutely cancerous to you
>>159734931
Is this good?
Just finished berserk and idk what to watch
>>159745876
yes its good, watch the OVAs not the TV series.
The TV series shits the bed early on.
>>159735559
Witnessed.
>>159745614
Where does one begin watching Slayers, anyway?
>>159745971
Episode 1. retard. I swear why has it gotten to a point where people can't even watching fucking cartoons without a guide.
>>159745971
Production order is good enough.
>>159744563
I like those idiots.
>>159745971
Maybe you should start with season one episode 1.
>>159746018
This place has gotten noticeably dumber. Rather than go to Google or anywhere else with their dumb questions, they come here because they can't get spoonfed without exact instructions. And when you tell them to figure out shit themselves, these people bitch about elitism or how you're trying too hard to fit in or something.
>>159746018
Thank you for your valuable advice, anon.
>>159746120
Have fun watching Slayers.
>>159734931
It basically was carried by the main duo and Etoh when it came to their personalities and interactions. The others were forgettable. I barely remembered that Woodchuck even existed when he fucked off because of the witch.

Enjoy the show
