Do I have an army of clones posting in this thread or something? Everything so far besides Mighty Orbots was my jam as a kid. Silverhawks, Galaxy Rangers, Saber Rider and Swat Kats in exactly that order were my favourites.

It just goes on and on. Almost 1 and a half minutes of unnecessary exposition.

I'd kill for a HD release of this series.

Seems to be all but forgotten nowadays, but the entire series was directed by the man behind Space Adventure Cobra, Ashita No Joe and Golgo 13: The Professional.

This thread just makes me wish we had Japan animating our shit again, at least our openings. All this stuff is rad. Surely we pay just a tiny bit more than they do over there, right?

>>95127224

Intros are a dying art. The used to be an ad for the show with promises they can't keep. Today in the age of streaming they don't have much use.

>>95127152
this looks rad as hell, is it as good as the intro?

>>95131298
Hahahaha 2000 kids actually think intros of 80/90s shows are honest.

>>95131028
>>95131162
Even in Japan most intros and outros these days are nothing more than a tie-in to some pop single with formulaic animation.

>>95131298
These intros could have animation budgets approaching the animation budget of actual episodes. Whether or not an 80s cartoon was good had nothing to do with the intro.

I hate that. Even serious shows feel like a soap after a pop intro.

What the fuck do they have against ninjas in Germany?

Do they just outright deny any connection they may have had to Japan?

>OOOOH NEENJAH, VUT IST DAT?

One of my personal favorite intros. I remember watching it with my dad because he liked how Ulysees looked like one of the Bee Gees.

>>95127152
this intro has no business being this good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9K0SzFIf4A

Nobody put probably the greatest intro ever!

I wish. I remember it had this oddity where space seemed to have air and down. I remember it being dangerous for someone to fall off a ship and getting really confused.

Really? None of you motherfuckers posted the best intro? Shame on you all.

SHOOOOOCK

>>95138850

I honestly would've fallen for this completely if they hadn't gone so over the top with the distortion. When a VHS tape gets THAT BAD the audio usually starts fucking up really badly too, fading in and out, and the animation looked too clean to be on a VHS tape that old.

Anyway my pick:

The theme for PODW got me so pumped up for the show, but the actual show... was so disappointing...

Was disappointed it took so long. Thank you Anon for saving this thread.
