| Yes, because there a some great shows back from before the digital animation era. Also, the animation quality didn't really change, as evident by a lot of gifs on the internet. |
 |
| If you want to experience anime as a whole you should. If you're a casual fan don't bother. |

For example, Mobile Suit Gundam, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Cowboy Bepop, Full Metal Alchemist etc. Most of those anime are usually the poster children of their respective genre, what's considered to be the best in their genre. I couldn't enjoy Cowboy Bebop. As for Gundam and FMA, i might as well just watch Brotherhood and the the Origin films. The origin films are not 0079. They are separate things. 03 FMA is different from brotherhood as well. |

| yes, if you are interested in that anime and if you think its worth watching... is that a good enough answer? |
| If you like old anime, yeah. If you prefer modern, I don't see a reason to go back watching old anime unless you want to catch up to some long-running series or something. |
| The issue in the thread, is that the intent of the thread is unclear on whether it is about animation specifically or just Japanese animations as a medium and how it changed over the years |
| A different aspect ratio shouldn't stop you from watching old shows, it might seem weird at first but that's the sort of thing you'll get used to. Claiming that early 2000s animation sucked makes you sound ignorant, many older shows have better animation than the average show today and some feature films have truly excellent animation (notably, Ghibli films). There is a big difference in art style though but again, that's something you'll get used to. There are certainly a lot of long old shows but there's also plenty of short to medium length ones. Just avoid the really long stuff if that's a problem for you. If older stuff is harder to find pirating is always an option if you're okay with it, otherwise just stick with what old shows you can find easily. I don't have a huge amount of experience with older anime but even if tropes didn't age well tropes aren't generally what makes an anime good and don't usually take up the core of a show. If you feel like current anime satisfy you then there's no problem sticking with it. If you feel like a change try out some older stuff and see if it provides anything new for you. Plenty of old shows will be trash but plenty will also be worth trying so I'd recommend at least giving them a chance. Ghibli movies are a good place to start, although they're not exactly representative of older anime. |

| All pre-2000s anime is 4:3? that just aint true, Overman King Gainer was widescreen in 2002!! |
| The best anime tell a great story, with good characters and relationships, perhaps set in a world that you want to know more about. Writers, artists, and storytellers have been doing this for generations, and when the medium is something like animation, they do it with the best tools they have available at the time. Art styles change, and CGI has vastly improved, but great storytelling is timeless. I might appreciate the kinds of visual effects Hollywood can put into films nowadays, but I wouldn't dream of dismissing out of hand all the movies produced a generation or more ago before the capability existed to use those kind of effects. The same goes for anime. Some of my favorites were made in the last couple of years. Some of my favorites date from the 1990s or earlier. |

You should just want to watch anime in general and not care about age Its just dumb like asking for a series that takes places in college and is about art but when given Honey and Clover as a solid option you just say ew no please, it released in 2005 so I can't watch that despite it being what I asked for |

| Tbh 4:3 often bothers me too, but if I binge it, I get used after few episodes and it's not a problem anymore. Anyway, I have to disagree with majority of replies here. Whether it's worth it to watch something that, according to watcher, doesn't look good, depends only on what's that person's reason to watch anime. If one does it for story or other "deep" stuff, then sure, old anime is as good as any. But if someone just wants moeblobs and relax after hard day, then it won't work imo. Also, what's up with people using few great old titles as example that most older anime had good art/animation and compare it to new anime with bad art? It's BS. If you pick top examples, compare it with other best examples. There are tons of older titles that looked like shit. Nostalgia doesn't change facts. But yeah, pre-2005 anime can look really good too. |

Everyone knows there are older shows that can look like shit such as Kanon 2002  but the same year we got shows that didn't look like shit    As you said some shows from that era can indeed look good and those who are pointing out that current anime can also look like shit or have bad animation quality and that older anime can have good production are more than likely aware age doesn't matter when discussing this topic |

| You should at least go back to 1995. The stuff Evangelion made possible (as well as Eva itself, obviously) contains plenty of things which haven't been replicated in more modern times. |
| OT: You should watch pre-2005 shows because you love good animation and are tired of watching overproduced crap wich hides its ugly frames under layers of photoshop filters anyone who ever worked in any kind of graphical/design job knows are the pinnacle of bad taste and lazyness. *reads the OP* Forget about it, you're the kind of person who'd burn greek statues because they're poorly animated. Get a pair of working eyes and try to learn what animation actually is. Immovable_Object said: Admittedly, the third opening does look bad, but you can't seriously say that the show looks badly animated overall.  Just kicking in a bit late to say Eureka Seven's animation wasn't all that awesome. It might LOOK impressive, but if you think about it 2 seconds, what do most combats look like? 2 trails of lights spamming perfectly round (because it's easier to animate) explosions on a pretty background. @hazarddex C'mon, that's not a Gundam mech?

Kakeras said: Yeah, that's kind of the impression I got as well -- "Let's trigger the old guard."Man this topic is full of bait. I'm honestly a little impressed. But I'll bite, if only a little, on the aspect ratio thing... Not all anime from that era was 4:3. You had some TV series in 16:9 starting with Betterman in 1999, as well as various movies and OVAs before that. Plus, it's not like being 4:3 is inherently worse, anyway. After all, anime watchers in the early 2000s didn't shun16:9 shows like Vandread, Noir, Samurai 7, Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex, Mahoromatic, or Figure 17 simply because they didn't fit the 4:3 screens everybody had back then. If viewers from that era could survive black bars, surely modern-day viewers can, too. |

I mean I haven't seen many pre-2005 anime, either, but I find that hard to believe. Maybe the seasonal thing, but I find it hard to believe that there weren't a bunch of "fast food anime" before 2005. An important thing to remember is that back then, it was a lot harder to watch anime. It very well may be that he missed or ignored the trashy shows and focused on the ones he liked and thought had "more value". Well, unless he was raised in Japan and actually had access to all those shows that weren't being aired, let alone dubbed, outside of the country. |

Otherwise what are you into anime for? Oh okay. I was just offering my own additions to your post. |
| Best answer I can give is there's some traits of pre 2005 anime that you simply can't find in modern anime. If you're looking for a sci-fi space story, you can all but count the options on your fingers for post 2005, but there's a significant number of them from pre 2005. Also, there's more shows that are willing to have the character designs be unattractive or off-putting to fit with the mood of the story like Boogiepop Phantom, Monster, or Perfect Blue. Pre 2000 is when Gundam was arguably at it's highest, putting out series like 08th MS Team, War in the Pocket, and Turn A. Pre 2005 is where somber tales with bleak colors like Kino's Journey, Haibane Renmei, or Wolf's Rain lie. I do generally consider myself a more modern anime fan; I've watched mostly series from the 2010s, a decent chunk from 2000s, and only a handful from before that. But even with the little I've seen, there are some stories that I could only find from a different decade. And given that I like to see new sorts of things and don't just want to see the exact same shit over and over again, I think going back to see what was in previous decades and what led to where we are now is incredibly interesting and at times refreshing. |

| @thewiru I have little free time so sorry if there are grammar mistakes but I didn't double check what I wrote. I think that now after 3 pages I have a better idea of what you tried to accomplish so here you go The problem with this thread is, it sounds vague. You come with a bunch of statements (some of which are wrong) and it isn't clear what exactly you expect to gain out of this. You don't have any specific question (except the vague "should I watch pre 2005 stuff"), you don't ask for recommendations, I had no idea what you want at first. First of all, not everything pre 2005 is in 4:3, and you might also want to explain why exactly this aspect ratio is problematic for you. It's different at first, you need to get used to it if you never watched anything like that before, but it should be something possible to do. Second, your list is confusing. You scored Bebop and Akira with 3. These are shows people are likely to recommend to someone who have troubles getting into older stuff. It'd be helpful if you referred to these shows in the thread, told what exactly you disliked (the artstyle? animation? characters? story?) and what you generally expect from older anime so that people could recommend something more to your liking. Third, there's lots of shorter old anime. You don't need to watch long stuff if you're not comfortable with them, you'll find plenty of movies, ovas and 1-2 cour tv series. There's a lot of independent ovas from 80s and 90s, they weren't like the modern ones which are mostly just additions to existing series. Another thing is, for older anime you need to have good sources. It isn't hard to access, but it requires a little more efort. I don't know how you're watching anime, but don't use illegal streaming services (if you do). For older anime you should only use either legal sources (preferably bds if available) or high quality torrents. Always search for the best release, you can often find the same show in different versions sometimes varying from 480p 4:3 to 1080p. Watching some half-assed stream is the worst thing you can do. Okay now recommendations for high quality short (basically just movies) older anime, I tried to choose some that are one of their kind (not like Bebop - even though I like it a lot, it's hard to deny it lacks creativity when it comes to tropes): Ghibli movies: Hotaru no Haka Tonari no Totoro Spirited Away generally most (all?) of them will do Satoshi Kon movies: Perfect Blue, Sennen Joyuu, Magnetic Rose (the first part of Memories) Other Macross: Do You Remember Love? (can be watched as a stand alone) Vampire Hunter D (2000) (can be watched as a stand alone) Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan - Tsuioku-hen (can be watched as a stand alone) Robot Carnival (mostly consists of music shorts) |

thewiru said: Everything that isn't surface level like art, animation, or aspect ratio. Those aren't the meat and bones of anime, they're the makeup. Blood sweat and tears can go into beautiful makeup to enforce specific elements, but it's not the point i'm making. If all you're into is eye-candy, or can't watch great anime without having the eye-candy then your tastes are very shallow and unrefined. @Lunilah What would be the "flesh and bones" of anime? Why i still watch anime? Because i can take something from every anime i watch, even if they're not that good. Also, in the entirity of this thread, not once was proved that "Older anime were better in storytelling" and etc, only comments that already pressupose that as true and comments that presuppose that i should also presuppose that The vast majority of anime today or in any era isn't animated well, but there are a lot of great animations from every era, the only difference is the art style. Which this era is extremely homogenized for art style, probably more apparent now because i didn't grow up with anime and can't speak for the vast shitness then like i can for the trash now. Time is a wonderful thing, so many seasons have come and gone and you don't have to waste time finding out what is good and what's mediocre or worse. It's already finished for you to watch. |
