Devilman

A collection of anime released from January 1963 to January 2000 that still have something of an appeal. For better or worse.

These are sorted from newest to oldest.

Note: Moderators had taken down the stacks before, since it was not wholly information based. I will post this as a note as to why such series are essential in order to defend them all as a blanket statement.

Most of the series featured have some sort of significance in terms of first best or darkest for their era which can be categorized by decennium or part of a decennium (early, middle, late). These are mixed around in order in order to give those who subscribed to list a challenge. While I could give an individual breakdown, I think some research is better left up to those who have subscribed to the stacks, since this allows for additional cultural insight into what was popular in Japan at the time, which is sometimes disconnected from the United States, as well as the rest of North America and Europe in many ways. For example, the Crayon Shin-Chan that aired in the United States and Canada is different to the one that aired in Europe, is different to the one that aired in Japan. By recommending to seek out Japanese versions of series, it grows understanding. I am not the first one to have thought of this. In the United States, there used to be a channel called ImaginAsian TV which had the same purpose of informing people about Japanese popular culture through anime. The San Francisco and San Diego PBS stations did the same thing and NHK World Japan carries this on through series like Little Charo and previously Maiko-san Chi no Makanai-san.

I think it is agreed upon that retro is a niche, but with handicaps on subject matter like availability.

Anime that have a reboot/remake or recut.
Not all remakes, but notable ones that interest me.

According to leaks, after the Ranma 1/2 and Yaiba remakes, more than 20 classic anime will be getting remakes.
I don't know if Versailles no Bara's new movie will be a remake or not.

List of anime that differs from its source either because it caught up with the manga and they had to create an original ending or just because the producers wanted to.

I'm accepting sugestions

Part 2: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/36724

Disclaimer: This list is sorted by year and will be updated!

Important. Influencial. Groundbreaking. Any anime which broke the mold of the medium is here. Whether I like them, or not. Trying to take as much as an objective outlook I can.
Criteria:
Before what is considered "New Gen"
Must have a big fanbase. Hence no cult classics like Death Parade or 91 Days.
I must have seen at least 10% of it.
If I feel that they impacted the industry or the audience.
Reviewing those I actually care about.

Anime that have similar characteristics or that resemble American superhero comics or that are influenced by Tokusatsu shows.

For anime which have 20+ episodes and only one opening and one ending

Theres a couple manga on here too

so I mostly wanted to make my own stack of this, potentially including stuff not in the existing similar stacks? & framed slightly differently, so maybe it can exist? lol.

if not it can be unlisted.

no mecha series in this one, and still struggled to fit everything.

Some Anime For the month of October to get into the Halloween Spirit

May try to make a determination between straight up bloody horror and or just Halloween fun
