Anime List Manga List

I'm that one weird dude who likes old anime and giant robot shows. So get off my lawn kids because the golden age of anime was back in the 80s when they had money, many of the all-time greats were in their prime, there was no copyright, fashion was on point, there were no moe blobs, there were adult protagonists, they were actually trying new stuff, and it was generally awesome. Man, how did we go from awesome stuff like Touch to endless CGDCT shows?

I also host a podcast about anime called the the Chinese Cartoon Podcast, so please take a listen if you have the time!

Finally, I have a blog called the Great OAV Watch where I watch loads of weird, old, and obscure OAVs. Currently I'm transferring across all of the old reddit threads but within a couple of months the site will be all caught up.

Thanks for accepting my friend request! I really like your favorites!

Heya man, was just interested if there was a consensus on which version of Endless Waltz was the superior one, movie or OVA?

sorcery Jul 9, 2019 10:09 AM

Great to see a fellow retro anime/Obscure OAV enthusiast still being active. I will get around to check your podcast tonight before I go to sleep.

PrimeYona7 Jun 29, 2019 3:22 AM

Yo! I have absolutely no idea how I came across your profile, but I'm glad I did because I mildly enjoyed the first episode of your podcast. Just wanted to drop a comment before I send a friend request if you don't mind.

I also see your a fan of giant robots as well as retro anime. Coincidentally, I have been slowly progressing through past decades in finding some gems I didn't realize existed. I will be sure to check out your blog for some interesting recommendation on OVAs in the future. Cheers!

Omg, another City Hunter fan! I'll have to go through your OVA blog, there's definitely some stuff I haven't seen yet, though I watched a lot of obscure titles at one time.

glassyeyes Mar 17, 2018 7:48 PM

I think you have good taste.
Friends?

mtsRhea Jan 30, 2018 12:53 PM

I hope you enjoy it, man. Gl on the writeup.

mtsRhea Jan 29, 2018 11:32 AM

Does your great OVA watch have to be only OVAs?

Cus do yourself a favour, and slip the 50 minute movie Brothers Grimm. The Golden Bird in there.

Best animation and backgrounds I've seen in 80's anime, and no one knows about it!
I only came across it by chance last night.

mtsRhea Jan 26, 2018 9:16 AM

If you remember, I disliked Bubblegum Crisis.

I highly recommend the recap music videos.
Hurricane Live! 2032 https://myanimelist.net/anime/5043

they're MTV-style sakuga mads set to the soundtrack. the two best parts of the show.
what better way to fix the pacing, then cut out 30 minutes of dialogue and story!?

mtsRhea Dec 15, 2017 5:08 PM

I had to double check,

I downloaded episode 25 of horrible's release. I can confirm that it is Venice of the Dead, i.e. special episode 1 or the true episode 6.

mtsRhea Dec 15, 2017 2:32 PM

I'm watching the BD releases from commie.

Unfortunately, there are only 2 of them [6 eps]
I don't know why though

mtsRhea Dec 15, 2017 9:01 AM

Hey I just started Lupin III (2015) [thought ep 1 was amazing, reminds me of Space Dandy],

I noticed here the dub and sub ep no.s are 2 off
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lupin_the_Third_Part_IV

Because of 2 OVAs - Venice of the Dead and Nonstop Rendezvous.

Is that these specials?

Oh btw, as you once suggested I tried out Flag and Bubblegum Crisis.

Flag not only is my favourite mecha, but is also one of my favourite shows ever. I watched that a month of so ago.
However Bubblegum was not for me, far 2 80's 4 me.
