This is the only anime you need to watch
>>217481667This and Royal Space Force.Maybe some Gundam OVAs and Eva as well, but only Akira and Royal Space Force are essential.
>>217481667The Fist of the North Star is pretty cool
>>217481667The soundtrack is truly sublime, and establishes many unique leitmotifs. The creativity of the Geinoh Yamashirogumi, and their willingness to experiment, are on full display. A personal favorite is the quiet theme as Tetsuo and Kaori wonder at the hugeness of Neo-Tokyo.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngTf7ccaBRo
Ninja scroll and vampire hunter d are also landmarks. Ghost in the shell and memories is the cat's meow. Mars express is a good followup act.
>>217481937It’s legitimately my favorite soundtrack. It’s certainly not the kind of music that you’d hear in an American animation or most others for that matter. It added so much to certain scenes like when Kaneda goes into the ball of light and sees Tetsuo and the Esper’s memories. That synth pad with the flute is just great and creates a unique atmosphere
>>217481667>”adult” “mature” anime>it’s so cool amirite?The only anime’s that matter are the few ghibli movies, kiki delivery and shit like that. They have incredible charm similar to classic disney
>>217481962>be a kid>get dad to rent Ninja Scroll on VHS>Okay son let's watch this>less than ten minutes elapse, the rape starts>dad says Nope, turns 360 degrees, turns it off, rewinds the tape and immediately returns it to the video storeIt was a rational parenting decision at the time desu, I didn't even feel bad (that escalated quickly!)
>>217482025It is cool. I’m sorry you’re an eternal 36 year old manchild that gets scared over violence
Akira and GitS 1995
>>217481667You need to watch all the anime. All of it.
>>217481667>原作・監督God. That's the biggest flex in /a/ history.
>>217481667I watched Princess Tutu. It wasn't worth it. I get it was made for little girls, but still.
>>217481667that is not golden boy
>>217482085It’s just gay, even when I was 14, gay. DBZ was based though
>>217482257>the onwy anime dat matter is Ghibwi aaaaand Dwagon baww aaaaaand one piss aaaaaand NawutoYou’re brown
>>217482283You’re mad cause I don’t like your fag cartoons? Relax twink, one day you will realize how trash all this shit actually is. For you it probably won’t happen til you’re like 50
>>217481667>Legend of the Galactic Heroes
>>217481667I've seen like 4 animes, and overall, I don't really like anime. Should I watch this? I've seen>Attack on Titanliked it>Most of DBZ when I was youngerliked it back then>Death NoteIt was alright then shit when you know what happens>EvengelionKinda shit. Not a fan of sexualizing minors, even when they're just drawings. i liked the weirdness of it though
>>217481815Agree, it's kino
>>217482321Yep, it’s like saying piss is a better drink than water. I’m just perplexed by your awful taste
>>217482025>The only anime’s that matter are the few ghibli movies, kiki delivery and shit like that. They have incredible charm similar to classic disney
>>217482321>I don’t like your fag cartoons?NTA, but the only two anime you approve of are Disney Princess but Japan, and homoerotic manlet wrestling.I don't think you should be calling anybody else's cartoons faggy when you've come out of the closet like that.
>>217482362I’d say yes if you’re even slightly interested. Akira’s a movie so you don’t need to invest too much time into it like a series. It also still holds up nearly 40 years later and technically speaking is still better than a lot of series. Just don’t go into it expecting common anime tropes and themes that have been tested and marked as successful with audiences. A lot of anime movies that came out in the 80s and 90s to an extent are more like traditional movies(which imo is a good thing)
>>217481667overrated
>>217482450>>217482410>>217482394I’m sorry but this isn’t gonna make your cartoons any less gay, go cry about it to /a/ or your mother not to me
>>217482509>nooo nooo japanese disney princess is the only one that matters waahhh wahhhh delete the thread and make it right. RIGHT NOW
>>217482560>having a meltdown because I said ghibli are the only ones worth watchingYou’re taking this a little too hard, considering it’s a fair opinion
>>217481667All it has going for it is the soundtrack and amazing animation.Outside that, it's mediocre. All these crazy peak-animation 80s movies and OVAs are the same; all having mediocre to shit stories and dialogue.
>>217482629You can make your own thread saying Ghibli are the only anime films that matter, you do know that right instead of continuing to try and ride my penis
>>217482646You replied to me first you faggot ass fanboy lol. OP thinks only one is worth watching but I think he got it wrong imo
>>217482645This much Emphasis on story is a cope for anime with poor quality animation. And desu Akira’s story is good
>>217481667>>>/a/Fuck off
