90’s Dezaki was absolutely insane when it came to production values. He was also on an edgy gothic horror stint starting with Oniisama e, and Black Jack was basically just building off of what Oniisama established. Even crazier is that Oniisama e is a TV series, yet it’s just as visually impressive as BJ.

>>282838658
>Oniisama e
I really need to watch this next. i've been reading interviews about it and want to start it. I started BJ on a whim because I saw some really cool cuts. my attention has been glued to the screen since i started.

>>282838681
The second episode of BJ in particular feels like a nod to Oniisama e with its focus on teenage girls, drugs, and age gap attraction, so you’ll probably like it. It’s literally the exact same studio and staff members afterall. I always felt it was ironic that Tezuka Productions’ most well known and acclaimed work is a Riyoko Ikeda adaptation.

>>282838727
Thanks anon, I'll definitely start it next and i appreciate the information. I really enjoyed episode 2 as well as episode 8 of the OVA so if it's really similar it can indeed be right up my alley with the interests. I think one think BJ has gotten down is the perfect amount of creepy within the eyes. It might not be intentional but eevn within episode 4 when the MC was shown to be with catina she often has large open eyes displaying the whole pupil and it adds a crazed look to her. Even though the direct reason was parasites in the end, an added side note could be mental health issues exacerbated the symptoms. It's a nice touch overall because when she gets older she loses that crazed look (dormant?).
I'm rambling a bit but i really like a lot of blackjack. The surgical scenes are gorgeous and knowing they're cel work is even better.

There was this black jack episode where a guy gets a skin transplant from his fusilated mother. The original chapter referenced the civil war in El Salvador, but the adapted episode moved the conflict to fictional not-serbia. I wonder if they wanted to avoid political stances or just did it for aesthetic reasons. Still that chapter is one of the few references to El Salvador in manga.

Probably that. Even if nobody from El Salvador were likely to see it, they probably still thought it was better not to reopen old wounds.

I have a feeling I may have screwed myself by picking LOGH as my first "retro anime" if it even counts as a retro anime. Now all retro anime I watch will be compared to it.

But what do you lads recommend anyways?

Watched the Crusher Joe movie over the weekend. It was very fun. I'll have to get to the OVA at some point in the near future. Beyond that I still need to watch Arion and the homo anime and then I'll have watched everything Yas has directed.

If you really feel this way and can't enjoy things for what they are then I suggest you try some of the World Masterpiece Theatre anime. Since its based on literature it has an elegance to the characters and plot that most anime cannot compare with despite being for children

When does retro begin for anime.

>What made you interested in Yas
UC gundam was my entrypoint into oldshit and Yas played a major role in early UC. Also Venus Wars and Giant Gorg were good and fun and since he doesn't have a ton of directorial credits beyond that, watching everything else he's directed didn't seem daunting.

Beyond that the art style of his manga and watercolor illustrations triggers nostalgia in me because for reasons I'm too dumb to articulate reminds me of Calvin & Hobbes.

tezuka was the boom of the 60s and he coined the term "anime" to begin with. Everything that came after is inherently derivative of his work.
The 90s was the y2k era and filled with edge and pessimism. You are asking what's different about Ghost in the Shell and Astroboy.

>>282846252

The manga is great, the anime is good when it closely follows the manga (like with Mariko's party) but 90% of the stuff it adds is corny and badly thought out. Like later in the series there are thwarted suicide attempts every few episodes. Not to mention some major differences in St. Just's plot between the manga and anime. Despite the production values they didn't have characters wearing different outfits in every scene like the manga either.

There’s still a lot of outfit variation throughout the series though. Nanako alone has like 8-10 different outfits she wears over the course of the series. I think Kaoru and Rei are the only ones whose wardrobe is limited to 1 or 2 outfits, but that’s because it’s in character for both of them.

True, but it also helped that Dezaki’s style was specifically designed to keep animation costs low without sacrificing style.

The fact that Oniisama e got an anime adaptation at all is also a miracle. Even if it is an influential manga, most studios nowadays would laugh in your face if you said to them that you wanted to make a high budget 39 episode long adaptation of a 70s shoujo manga. My guess is Dezaki had some serious pull in the industry at that point, because I don’t know how else a passion project like that would have gotten past the pitching stage.

>>282842860
Use ReShade and a high quality CRT filter like CRT Royale or something. You can also just open the video in Retroarch and enable the filter there. It's also good combined with emulators that are better standalone than as Retroarch cores. Or if you just hate Retroarch (understandable).

Started watching Kuusou Kagaku Sekai Gulliver Boy, and it's about what I expected from the creators of Mashin Eiyuuden Wataru. Only I was sure it was going to be an isekai, given that Wataru is an isekai, plus the main character's name is Gulliver. The main characters are kind of boilerplate and frankly not that interesting so probably won't try to watch the whole thing. I do like it better than Wataru so far though, it feels more focused on the serial narrative and less villain-of-the-week.

Cool shit anon, what episode are you on? I'd recommend watching both series in their entirety, they're both really good in their own distinct ways.

>>282863059
just finished watching ep 4. joe is kind of an asshole, very cocky, and lacks discipline but kid has a good heart, just needs to redirect his anger towards something more meaningful. feel bad for coach, fav character so far. by both series, are you referring to ashita no joe 2?? i was under the impression that is season 2, unless im wrong??

The first anime shows the first two thirds of the story. The second anime shows the second two thirds of the story. They overlap because both of them show the middle part of the story (Joe losing his confidence and then regaining his confidence), but each anime tells that part of the story differently.

Been watching Devilman Lady. It's kind of weird how it has such interesting episodes and concepts but it feels like a chore to sit down and watch another episode. It's taking me forever to get through with it but I've never considered dropping it.

>>282864496

>>282864523

As a plus of taking me so long now it's October so it's really appropriate for some spooks.

>>282864573

That's a nice recommendation, I'm adding it to the October watchlist. OVA, TV or both?
Either way, I might take you up on that and have a drink while watching it. I was planning on watching Pulse (2001) today too, so that helps.

>>282864672
It does look better, to be honest. I'll give the OVA a shot and then move on to the TV version. After I'm done with Devilman Lady because I can't keep procrastinating that one

I also picked up After War Gundam X since I had never heard of it prior to properly getting into Gundam since I only ever saw parts of G and Wing as a kid and I've been enjoying that a lot. It's pretty mellow compared to Tomino Gundam and what I remember of G Gundam and Wing but in a nice way.

For me I try to watch about 2-4 hours of anime a day and when you watch that sheer volume of a show that quickly what you value about it shifts compared to more reasonable amounts.
So in this context I think I enjoyed ZZ more than Zeta simply because the fights are more varied. With Zeta there was this factor of 'I've been watching mechs dodge and shoot in space for an hour' that was nowhere near as bad in ZZ. That being said I think I'll pick out individual episodes from Zeta to rewatch more.
Even though ZZ is a nearly 40 year old show I don't want to spoil it for you, I will say contrary to some claims (despite some surprising and frankly upsetting deaths) it never becomes as bleak as Zeta and ends on a much more hopeful note.
Bright continues to be my favorite character.

While this thread is up, did anyone rip Retro Crush's subs for Persia while they had it? If they had it? IIRC they erased all signs of the Pierrot magical girl quartet from their site (save for clips uploaded to their Youtube channel). They had at least one clip of Persia but I don't recall if they ever even released any episodes.

Also to anyone who was crazy enough to buy it on Amazon when it was available, Minky Momo's dub still needs non-VHS rips past episode 4.

>>282846252
Onisama e was not my cup of taste. Nice production values for a 1991 anime (usually), but I lost all interest after the first 12 episode. I found the psychological horror element to it interesting, but then it was gone.

I recently watched Nadeisco for the second time. I enjoyed the meta elements more, caught lots of jokes I'd missed, and was engaged the whole way through.
Also, I think Yurika should have just opened fire on the Jovians when they betrayed the Earth during the peace talks . Which is neat, because it's an example of a commander making the (very debatably) wrong decision due to a subordinate's good advice!

Do you guys believe drawing different outfits costs more?
This is not live-action cinema where you have to produce costumes; d you also believe that an anime set in a space station must have an higher budget than one set in Tokyo because they have to pay to build the set?
If a character changes clothes or not is a deliberate choice by the staff, it's not a money problem you morons.

The fights in ZZ are definitely better but what kept me so constantly engaged and enamored with Zeta was its characters, particularly Kamille and Quattro. The Shangri-La crew + Roux and Puru/Ple are all great and likeable for one reason or another but they aren't quite resonating for me quite as hard as the Zeta cast did. Still liking ZZ a lot though, it's definitely a much better show than I was led to believe.

>>282895694
>You can die now
Not until I've seen the madoka sequel

>>282895694
>Kamille
I don't know about anyone else's process for z Gundam but mine was bewilderment at first being confused and laughing about how weird it was that everybody was just hitting each other for no reason. it seemed pretty dated for that but then as I kept watching I really enjoyed the dynamics and growth of kamille and the different intricacies and play by plays that you can infer from char into his life now as Quattro.
You also tend to see quatro as someone who finally gets a little break from his past to just enjoy his life before everything sort of catches up to him and just how frustrated he gets when it does.
I just feel like there's a lot to take away from in zeta ending aside there's so much more that you can see.
Especially something like Camille being almost directly a parallel to amadou but he never took the childish root. He took the root where he made the choice to go rather than it forced upon him. I feel like Camille and amuro are honestly a little bit of a copy and paste character of each other but how they develop their motivations over time is different. amuro to me feels like he never wants to pilot a Gundam. Whereas Camille doesn't necessarily want to pilot a Gundam but he makes the choice to do it rather than it feels like thrusting the Gundam on him.

This is long but it's even a condensed version of my thoughts and maybe one day I'll write it all out completely when I'm not also dead tired.

It's so fucking funny to me he gets the MC treatment with getting laid, getting his gf back, and getting away scott free. He does get it for being able to recognize and rethink his actions a bit.

For a this demographic, certainly early teens, I felt this did the wrap up nicely but in regards to the barrier I thought it would have something to do with gorg sacrificing himself or some other robot/people who woke up but leaving him on the island was I guess a way to leave the ending open if they decide to follow it up with a movie or show for nostalgia purposes now.

>>282898052
If it was something like Gorg and Manon's guardian resonate to activate the barrier or something I think that would've worked without changing much at all.

Gorg does kinda lose fights though since the universe won't explode or whatever the fuck if he does, but Gorg losing is like "We pushed him into a hole for a while" or "Yuu is being held hostage so Gorg stopped fighting"
He just literally can't take damage even when they have it strapped down in a hangar to try and dismantle him
Several episodes prior to the last big battle you see not even Manon's laser guns can hurt Gorg so the mass produced shittier guardians just don't even have a hope of doing anything, plus they're retarded enough to attack single file across a bridge instead of swarming from all sides through the water like they do in the very next episode... when Gorg isn't there

Im sorry beforehand, this is not the right place since its a post 2000 show (2003 20+ years old now but still) but i need to vent and i dont think making a whole thread just for that is worth it.

I just recently finished the first season of gunslinger girl and loved it, it was moody and sad without being overly edgy but it was also sweet and beautiful in the more poignant moments. I had heard bad things about the 2nd season but i thought it was just a common case of trying to fit too much in one season or maybe and original plot or ending that was stupid or maybe the animation just sucked so i just went and watched the 1st episode.

They...fucking raped this anime. Its gone. The gorgeous atmosphere, the enchanting italian vistas, the stoic nature of the characters, the somewhat subtle and subdued storytelling, the not great but decent enough animation, its all fucking gone. I wouldnt be as mad if it was just the complete voice cast change and the terrible artsy op but its like they didnt even fucking try to make the show have any remaining quality compared to the 1st season. Its not like the new studio didnt know how to make a darker toned show either, its fucking Artland, they made Mushishi, what the fuck man. at least the cars arent cg i guess

Any oldfags here know details on what the fuck happened? How can a 2nd season so badly comprehend what made a show good? I dont think i've seen such a jarring change in tone in any anime ever.
