Who remembers the classic Animes?
« on: July 01, 2008, 08:21:23 pm »
Akira (the Anime that got me started pretty much)..... badass movie about biker gangs and goverment telekenetic experiments with unwilling/unwitting civilians to make super weapons (or oh noes weapons of mass dis-truck-shun)
Guyver..... who remembers Guyver? Anybody? The weird guy with the jewel in his head that made him invincible, basically?

Classic anime for me has always been Doraemon.  I've never seen Akira.

Akira is pretty awesome. Kaneda rules in that movie.

So classic animes in what regard?  Cause I think Gundam is a classic anime but it didn't "officially" come over until recently.

I'm guessing you mean 80s-early 90s anime that was ported over here at the time (ala Thundercats, Voltron and Robotech which are all classics in my mind).

Good point.  If you asked me about classic anime without explaining what you meant I'd probably assume you mean stuff like Lupin III and Ashita no Joe.

I will say this: Voltron has a way cooler theme song than the anime it was chopped up from, Golion.  It has this cheesy opening with cheesy vocals that involve a japanese guy saying "One! plus one! plus one!" and every time he says one it sounds like Juan...

but the show still rules, because its still about a robot lion with a giant sword.

It IS much more violent in Japanese.

Well there was the episode where Ryo-oki was born from the remnants of her ship.  She pretended that the egg she had was the product of her and Tenchi getting busy in the sack.

Ranma was good up until Happosai became an integral part of the show, then it went all downhill for me.  Still my favorite fight sequence is the Ice Skating Battle.

How the heck could I forget that show.  So much good times.  Anubis is still my favorite character in that show.
