| Sometimes, I mean as it is now I'm so used to the new style of anime in this generation than it was back in the 90's. I can manage if it's a good story to the anime though c: |
| I do find it hard but for some shows I love the animation style, example would be lupin. |
 |
| If the story is good enough then yes. But it takes a lot. |
| I have really funny thoughts that no one will get to hear. |

| Depends on the anime. Old anime like gunbuster and crying freeman had excellent art. Art hardly bothers me, what bothers me is repeating frames/stock footage (not sure what its called exactly) and lazy animation. But even newer anime can have that. Putting aside art, sometimes older anime tend to be extremely cheesy. With corny dialogue that is like nails on a chalkboard. Either that or laughably simplistic stories with terrible pacing. But again, newer anime is not exempt from this, so its not a problem. |

Shocked said: It's a quite different experience with me for Utena because I immediately fell in love with the art style. And even if the animation was low in the early episodes I still enjoyed, even if they repeated the footage of utena walking to the arena I always get pumped "MOKUSHIKUSHIMOSHIMOKUKUSHIMOKUMOSHIKUMOSHIMOKU"To be honest, I had trouble getting used to the art style in Revolutionary Girl Utena at first, but then the anime got rolling and it stopped bothering me. So my answer would be no, although it might take a bit for me to get used to it. Still, rather than age, I'd say it's more of trying to get used to a different style. I can imagine someone having trouble getting into something that's drastically different from what they're used to. Say, stuff like Kaiba, or stuff that are made by Studio Shaft that have some unique look to them, different look from the clean cut stuff we see a lot today. Unless we're actually talking about not like old anime because they are old, then I got nothing. Besides the art, is there something unique to "old" anime that makes it hard to approach compared to the newer stuff? Does that work in reverse, where someone would never touch anything with that "new" feel to it? I'm not sure. Anyway, I actually have an easier time watching older anime than the new ones. Theres still variety in todays shows but I'm just not into the super bright/colurful backgrounds and character designs along with a few cgi effects (I think the new berserk movies are good, but I still favor the art from the past anime). However, I've barely had a hard time with art and watched most animes with no problems who are notorious for their art such as clannad, one piece, and code geass. |

TheAsap said: ainky said: I find it difficult to find enough seeds to download... That depends on popularity, not age. In most cases older anime aren't as popular as new anime. |
 |
| It's a shame that people actually do, since the old anime are...well the best anime. I discussed this with a friend, and anything from 2005+ can't compare to <2000. I'm generalizing here, but the majority of anime can'y really compare to the classics of old. |
The forums are dark, and full of ego. |
| I always hear that all these old anime are so good but when I try to watch it I just cant stand it. |

Now, in 2013, people in America and Canada and Brazil and Lithuania and wherever else can all just hop online and watch every single anime that's currently airing, so there's nothing filtering out the worthless junk. If you've got everything, good and bad, from a span of under a decade, and you're comparing it with the best of the best from a span of over 80 years, that's just silly. OMG THIS X10000000 |

GuiltyKing said: Ghostony said: Yes, for the common reasons. All these proclaimed masterpieces should be remade with better visual&audio quality ^this It's so fucking difficult for me to enjoy anime of the 90s, much less 80s. Simply because I'm used to overall better stuff. I admit, it's a superficial attitude but it can't be helped. So I suppose plot and character development don't rank high on your "Things Ever Anime Needs" list? |
| I'm dead. Don't come looking for me. |
| While it isn't the most important thing, I do find it hard to watch older anime, especially from back in the 80s. I have just grown used to having smooth animation I guess. |
| Missing the times of Rewrite, good times. |
| It depends. I mostly feel weird while watching old shows. It's also hard because I'm used to good audio and animation quality. The only things I can watch without a problem are the old childhood shows like dragonball, inuyasha, ranma.. But that dosnt mean I dislike the old shows, I also have some in my PTW |

But the typical anime art style has evolved since then, for better or for worse. It just depends on what you prefer to be honest. While you may prefer the art style of anime back then, I prefer the art style of most anime now. When you think about it that way, why would you want to watch your less prefered type? And before your prefered type no less. Also, I believe there are more art styles and genres to choose from in today's anime then there was back then, so that may factor in too why many prefer the anime of today. There is just more choice. More and more anime today cater to specific targeted audiences, more so than past anime, and those specific targeted audiences will often be fairly small. |

| No, I don't have any trouble watching them. I do find them less visually appealing than a lot of newer post 2000 stuff though. I watch a show for the plot though so how it looks doesn't matter much unless it's really fugly. |

Yes, I think it needs better animation (by that I mean HD) and better sound. Archer-san said: I have just grown used to having smooth animation I guess. _Core said: It depends. I mostly feel weird while watching old shows. It's also hard because I'm used to good audio and animation quality. Being drawn or displayed in a high-definition resolution doesn't have anything to do with animation quality. All that really matters is having a sufficient in-between animation budget to avoid the "slideshow effect." Older anime just take a perception penalty because modern audiences watch them on mis-sized screens. As for audio, once mono audio was phased out in the early 90s, bitrates haven't been all that different. 192-224 kbps AC3 isn't any worse than the ~170 kbps AAC in contemporary TV-rips. Of course, that's assuming one actually watches them on DVD, rather than ancient DivX .ogms with transcoded 70 kbps Vorbis audio. Or worse, streams re-encoded from those old DVD-rips. |
| I do understand that some people have problems watching old anime,however I did started watching anime in a very early age,anime like Heidi,Ranma,Inuyasha,Chin Chan and every single one of those ... well,I wouldn't consider it as good animation but I didn't have a problem with it however there's a point,and I kinda understand why people can't get into anime from the 90's.However there are some which are old but still have good animation like for example princess mononoke and ghost in the shell. |
| It's insane how awesome Fate/Zero is. |
Dark_Chaos said: Compared to most anime today, those eyes seem very normal in comparison. You couldn't have found a better picture than that? 0_o What you said in your prev post If it was made in the early 2000's or before, then yes for the most part and yet you said that the eyes in the gif (from a 1979 anime) seem very normal. you're obviously contradicting your own post. |
| Nope, not at all. |

| No way the classics are classic |

| Actually yes, I can't stand watching Detective Conan lol. |

| No. I had no trouble watching Berserk (I actually enjoyed it a lot) |
| Not really, although I've never watched an anime older than the 80s. |
