| I'm also a 90's anime fan. OPperson said: can you reccomend some good 90s anime To Heart, His & Her Circumstances, possibly Sailor Moon if you're into the magical girl genre. |

| Here, here. I enjoy all kinds of anime from across the decades, but yes there is something undeniably comfy about the 80's-90's anime aesthetic. |
| 70s and 80s super robot is still the best. |
Yes, i love retro 80's and 90's anime. |
| Yes, old anime has its own charm. Just remembering "Slayers" puts a smile on my face. |

@Forain Yeah she's a haughty naughty ojou girl with a superiority complex, I LOVE HER. |
| Yes, retro anime is great and has its unique, awesome charm. Especially shows from 1980s and 1990s. I like to re-watch retro anime once in a while, or check out the titles I haven't seen yet that look cool enough for me to give them a try. |

| Yes, I like high quality cel animation. |
No, this isn't my signature~desu. |
| Depends on how retro,if we are talking mecha then absolutely (I mean the genre died after 2010),if the 90's & 00's count yea i have a ton I wanna watch/have watched from that era |

| retro old skool anime will always be superior to the modern junk you're getting now |
| Hm, I guess I like the aesthetic of it. |
Polatrix said: There is something really romantic, and beautiful, but also touching bittersweet about those, isn't t...? There are many retro anime that aren't like that at all, lol.... |
I was Kickstarted into Anime Fandom to begin with, long ago... by a Series that actually came out the very year i was Born; SUPERDIMENSIONAL FORTRESS MACROSS (1982/1983)  My Very First "Proto-Moe" Waifu-Oriented Series... the one the actually got me to look outside my singular Mecha-obesssion at the time, and truly Take Notice of all the Lovely Hunnies abound, was Galaxy Fraulein Yuna (1995/1997)  |

| Older anime were more hand drawn than using digital means, so they had a real unique charm to them. Grown up in Asia watching dubbed 80s-90s anime was a nice way of remembering my childhood. So many anime that hardly anyone know of. Madou King Granzort Chuuka Ichiban! Bakusou Kyoudai Let's & Go Wanwan Sanjuushi!! Chou Tokkyuu Hikarian Yadamon Yoroiden Samurai Troopers Sailor Moon Digimon Adventure 01 and 02 Some of these I probably missed many episodes during the initial airing in dubbed version but I'm pretty sure I watched the finale at some stage. Only Digimon Adventure 01 and 02 I definitely remember finished everything. |

| I grew up with '90s anime, so I will always have a soft spot for that animation style. Real oldheads still remember watching the Speed Racer dub:  |

| @OPperson Akira is from 1989 btw. As for 90s anime you can try Cyber City Oedo, Gunnm, Black Jack, Memories, Shin Cutey Honey, Lodoss-tou Senki, Excel Saga, Golden Boy, Trigun, Outlaw Star and Macross Plus. And this is yet another "old anime is great" thread with a different name |

| @Orororurando Are you sure you don't mean "hear hear" instad of "here here"?e |
| Back then, animators poured their passion into every frame, taking years to craft something extraordinary. It wasn’t about rushing to meet deadlines or making quick cash grabs, it was about creating something truly memorable. |

| Of course I like retro anime. They are very fun to watch. |
| I've watched some post-2000s anime. But not a huge amount |
Sometimes it takes a real man to be best girl. Gilgamesh is also chad.   |
| Didn't have a chance to watch enough of retro stuff, but those I watched were masterpiece. |
| I just finished dirty pair, everything except the reboot. watching wingman currently, I watch current and old anime side by side. |

| It’s crazy that shows like DBZ and Cowboy Bebop are considered retro now. Really just getting old these days lol. |
 |
| Yes, but I also like newer stuff too. |
  |
| Literally just thinking this when I finished up Initial D. Retro stuff for the win! |

| I love retro anime. I am watching Dairugger XV right now. It is form 1982. |
| I like old series so much!! And new too. |

| I like a fair amount of old anime, yes. Although, I generally prefer the modern style. |

| @OPperson No one seems to have mentioned any movies, other than Akira, which definitely is must see. Anything by Miyazaki-san made before Ponyo. Even the stuff from the 2000's is done in the 90s aesthetic, Satoshi Kon's movies are also wonderful, and edgier than Miyazaki's work. Grave of the Fireflies is phenominal, but make sure you have a big box of tissues for that ending! |

| @JoeChip Excel Saga, Outlaw Star and Trigun are 3 of my favorites from the era. |
| Old school sci fi and mecha anime are literally keeping my interest alive in the medium, at the moment. Finished New Dominion Tank Police and Macross not too long ago. Plan to check out the Crusher Joe films soon. |

| @WatchTillTandava Lol this doesn't sound like you. |
| I love the 70s and late 90s anime i've watched but not so much between that. Besides Royal Space Force, Patlabor + movies and Black Jack OVA the rest are sorta love-hate. |

| @joemaamah both Trigun and Outlaw Star came out in 1998 even. And can you tell me a bit about them including Excel Saga? I've also seen how people compare the other two to Cowboy Bebop (also 1998) which i loved. |
