Your honest thoughts?
A classic!
A lot of veteran female seiyuu cut their teeth with this movie.
>>288862337Peak Yuri, my second favorite romance movie (only loosing to Jin Roh) also Miyazaki needs to fuck off
What happened in 2006?
>>288862337one of my first animesstill have it on VHS
>>288863121>YuriA-Ko and B-ko like this guy. Even the director couldn't understand how there were people that believed B-ko was a lesbian
The HD remaster is GOAT
>release 40 years ago todayStill my all time favorite anime. Watched it on Sci-Fi Channel in the Saturday Anime block in the 90s, then rediscovered it a few years ago. Seen it tons of times by now.
>>288862337Boring and stupid waste of designs and animation.
>>288865187>Watched it on Sci-Fi Channel in the Saturday Anime block in the 90sSame. That block was probably my first introduction to anime or at least where I learned the term "anime". I was still too young so I don't think I ever did sat down and watched a lot of the shows they aired all the way through. They'd just air anime randomly in no order.
>>288864230This guy is from the third right ??? I have to admit that I drop it midway (I thought it was boring as fuck compare to the first and second one )
>>288866651He's in 3 and 4
>>288864230Only saw first one. But B-Ko is an obvious lesbian in that one.
>>288864091
How come they never did BluRay versions of the Vs movies?
>>288862337Superman and Wonder Woman’s CANON daughter is so cool and strong!
>>288867655Licensing issues apparently it is unclear who owns the rights.
Gonna watch this again now, thanks for the reminder OP
>>288867121It was literally a phase>>288866651I think Cinderella Rhapsody works as a pseudo-shoujo but I admit the fans didn't want to see a female coming-of-age
>>288862337Hmmm.
>>288862337>Otaku slop then>Full of imagination, exciment, sakuga animation and great acting>Otaku slop now>Literally unwatchable
>>288864087Maybe that's when they discovered the master copy thought lost to time. Otherwise I don't think they could have released a proper blu-ray.
>>288867121It's obvious from the flashback that C-ko was only a prize to be won and I don't think she would know what to do with her if she ever did get her. A childhood fantasy from long before her hormones kicked in.
>>288864230>write a friendship and a designated love interest>the friendship has more chemistry and more resembles an actual romantic dynamic (or having an intense, misidentified crush in the case of rivals) while the love interest feels sterile and arbitrary>fans ignore the love interest to ship the friends/rivals because that's where all the effort and development and little details are
>>288864091I've had it on VHS and then the later DVD box set, now I've just got the BDs from Discotek. Worth every re-buy, and the soundtrack is fantastic.
>>288866874I watched 4 but barely remember it, it's was a mess(not in a good way) and the ending just happens out of nowhere
>>288869009Cinderella Rhapsody and Final were written by a woman so it was satirizing shoujo
>>288868776or in other words>movie got popular>different director got hired to make sequels>new director doesn't like yuri and tries to bury it
>>288865119Is the 4K Blu-ray any good?
>>288864110I feel like a lot of anime girls are missing that sexy naval line that used to be present in a lot of shows/OVAs from this era
>>288869179At the time nips couldn't grasp the concept of lesbianism. They're still struggling because it's a society obsessed with the cock. I seriously doubt B-ko was conceived as a lesbian, even in the original movie
>>288869225kek, were they like "How could a woman live without cock"
>>288869225>at the time nips [headcanon]just accept that a different writer wrote the characters differently, it happens all the time in any media all around the world
>>288869275Nips gonna nip. Even after all these years, yuri is still treated as yaoi's ugly stepsister
>>288869198Yes, it's amazing.
>>288867121Don't bother arguing with these "people"It's not worth the effort
>>288869225>it's a society obsessed with the cockJapan isn't you and your butt buddies in your south asian village
>>288869505Are you seriously implying Japanese boomers aren't lesbophobic? There's a reason why every yuri manga made in the 70s and 80s end with the lesbian dying or loving the cock. The less fucked up ending was Iczer-1 and at the end Nagisa forgets everything and make babies like a good Japanese girl. Even Oshii, a literal communist, still see lesbianism as a phase
>>288862337I laughed out loud at the part where B-Ko builds a Rube Goldberg mecha and part of it is one of those bamboo rocking fountains.
>>288862337I laughed my ass off the first time I watched itI did not when I rewatched it several years laterI dare not watch it a third time
>>288862337it's fascinating how influential it was on American perceptions of anime. most people didn't know it was satirising anime tropes of the era, so they took it at face value and thought anime actually was all "wacky school girls fighting giant robots in their undies".
>>288869462Yurifags really are delusional.
>>288870885>wacky school girls fighting giant robots in their undiesAs it should be.
