| You act as if modern anime don't do the same things that you put on your list, sounds biased to me. |

| Problem with a huge amount of older shows is the comedy, it's a huge turnoff for me. That's why shows like City Hunter is not for me. I can't stand the comedy, I think it's way to childish. That's my problem with older shows, but thoes show that does not follow this childish concept is normal really good and I do love the animation. But, we do have way more shows back in the days that falls in this childish concept then shows nowdays. |

| I think anime from the 70s and 90s can be very charming, yes but I love anime from pretty much EVERY decade. Except the 60s because it's too crude then. xD Plus there was a huge variety of stories, unlike today. SAY WHUUUUUUUUUUUUT Today has more variety than EVER. |

| Well, another thread of someones comparing the best shows in the history to the current seasonal season to make a claim of how good old used to be... Despite loving older shows, these kind of claims make me cringe hard. It's not fair comparing the best in history vs the current state where the good and the bad are put in the same bag. People always forget the bad, so they can't never move foward. I guess people love to give newer fans reasons for avoiding old shows. |

I created this thread to celebrate the beauty of old anime and make them know to people who are interested in them. Instead she comes here to say that she ins't interested and she wants to see modern "bishonen". Which is her point? Here I won't show "modern bishonen" (that are generally ugly as hell to me, lol). |

But, we do have way more shows back in the days that falls in this childish concept then shows nowdays. Nah, comedy was great in tons of old shows. City Hunter isn't good at all in terms of comedy, it's very stereotyped. For some good comedy try Urusei Yatsura or Dr. Slump and Arale. I'm afraid of watching Urusei Yatsura, why you might ask? That it will be follow the same path as Ranma. Ranma was okej, the first 20 ep's or so. But after those few ep's the story didn't progress at all. Each ep's followed the same path for over 130 ep's. They started the same way, the ended the same way and it was always something that happend in the middle of the ep's that got solved in the end. That's the reason why I haven't watched Urusei Yatsura yet, I been having the long running anime in my PW list for years and I heard one of the movies is REALLY damn goat. But still, I can't watch a show if it's the same thing that happens for over 130 ep's. Nothing new happend, it was really a god damn boring anime. And when it comes to 100 + ep's shows. I can't really force myself to watch it for that long. But, hey. I might be wrong. What do you think, does Urusei follow the same path as Ranma ? Or it's have story telling that progress from start to end. |

Except the 60s because it's too crude then. xD The gif in your sign reminds me of "Hime chan no ribbon", one of my favorite majokko anime ever. Do you know it? This is the Italian opening (I'm not able to find the Japanese opening): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztI4I7li0oM I was in love with Daichi. :3 That gif is from Nurse Angel Ririka SOS which was around the same era as Hime-chan. Yes, I read Hime-chan's manga and I tried the anime but I didn't like the voices they cast lol. The manga was quite enjoyable though. |

| Old anime comedy is a little to cringe and sexual to me, and the techinical limitations give new anime the upper hand, but they are okay. |

| heh. |
| I've gotten quite interested in older anime as of recently. I want to watch some 60's anime, but unfortunately most of them are really hard to find. For 70's anime, I have seen/plan to see Rose of Versailles, Ashita no Joe, Galaxy Express 999, Lupin III, and a few other space operas. My biggest issue with older anime tends to be the animation, but I can't really blame it. One thing I can blame them for is usually, the looped animation is really poorly done and it's really easy to tell where the loop ends. If there are any great 70's anime you would recommend, or a place to watch some 60's anime, I'd love to hear it! |
momoka16 said: Chiibi said: ......................... Okay, hon, you have VERY weird taste if you think they are "ugly as hell". I don't like the typical modern bishonen, sorry. They look all the same to me... *sighs*      YEAH, NOT REALLY. Come on now. xD Don't lie. |

| There's a lot of good stuff from the pre-2000s no doubt. I really should include more in my anime diet. Dominion Tank Police Puma Sisters Strip Tease. Pretty groundbreaking at the time. |
All of them look very similar, except for Hanako, with his mix of creepy/cute. I really like Hanako-kun manga and anime, indeed it's not like I dislike ALL modern anime and manga. But in general I prefer old anime. About anime guys, I prefer types like these:      ...and many others. |
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE NO THEY DON'T!!! D:< About anime guys, I prefer types like these: ...and many others. THESE LOOK WAY MORE ALIKE THAN MY EXAMPLES DO. Ya blind? xD |

Chiibi said: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE NO THEY DON'T!!! D:< About anime guys, I prefer types like these: ...and many others. THESE LOOK WAY MORE ALIKE THAN MY EXAMPLES DO. Ya blind? xD No, honestly they don't, even if two of them have been drawn by the same artist, so the style is the same, of course. |
Yes they do! The first two have the exact same face, eye color, hair color, (actually I'm amazed the second is even a man cause it looks like a lady o_O) the second two have the same face and the last guy is the only one who looks different. lol |
|
momoka16 said: "Cringe"? Honestly, I wonder how many old anime you saw. In terms of comedy, this is maybe my favorite one ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aR2zg187d_U Also this one is funny as hell https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USW4Ngzg7ZY It's a parody about Greek myths. To be fair I didn't watched a lot, and the parody seems great. |
| heh. |
momoka16 said: Korishi said: maybe you should make a blog post? link it in your signature too if you wish for others to know about it I think back then they did the most they could do with what they had. these day's there's so much potential but it depends on what they should invest their time in as anime is first and foremost a business In old anime the quality of art and animation was usually huge, unlike today. Plus there was a huge variety of stories, unlike today. I am right now comparing this years spring lineup to 1990's and there's a ton more variety in 2020, even in the midst of coronavirus delays. Whether or not the art and animation is superior is a matter of personal preference but your statement about variety is just plain wrong. |

I will show you better pics. The first two: Andrè from Versailles no bara:  Terry from Candy Candy  Completely different shape of face, eyes, nose...How can you say they are the same? Come on. The second two are drawn by the same character designer, Akemi Takada, so I can't deny they are similar, but not identical. Godai Yusaku from Maison Ikkoku:  If you like romance anime, you should try to watch this one. It's a masterpiece! I let you an AMV so you can see how beautiful the art is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Of7qrZnWJY Toshio Otomo from Creamy Mami:  Again, Akemi Takada draw both of them, so the art style is similar in this case, but they are not identical at all. |
| I like older anime as well, but to be fair, some of the points you mentioned aren't exclusive to pre 2000 anime and I don't agree with the "always complex part" either. It's most likely not your intention, but some people with negative prejudice against old anime and it's fans will probably perceive these lines as priggish. |

| Do you know why I love old Japanese animation? It's because of the technical side, it was a bit more "hands-on". As in they had to use real lightboxes with color gels underneath the animation stand to give it that "glow" or they had to use textured glass to give it that "shimmer" for the special effects. You don't see that nowadays, it's all done using programs on the computer. |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
Also those other guys have like ZERO sex appeal...like what woman would choose THIS: WHEN YOU CAN HAVE THIS?  Lmao...old anime are not good at being sexy...until you reach the 90s. xD |
|
| What's the matter with finding reasons to love periods of anime based on dumb sweeping statements on the other periods of anime? Same for people who'd say similar things about old anime, but hey in this case it's reducing new anime to absurd in order to highlight the older gems. Both kinda stupid. Also yes, there's more variety in current anime. That's a well-established fact. It would be incoherent if it was otherwise. |
| Modern anime gave us talent like this: There are plenty of other examples but you get the point. The past decade had a great presentations of different styles in new animation. |
on Chiibi said: Also those other guys have like ZERO sex appeal...like what woman would choose THIS: WHEN YOU CAN HAVE THIS? Lmao...old anime are not good at being sexy...until you reach the 90s. xD I find the second guy disgusting more than sexy. Toshio isn't supposed to be sexy, he is only 14 years old. I liked him because he was cute and I loved his relationship with Yu. There's plenty of sexy types in anime before the 2000s, but I preferred sweet guys. |
| Modern anime guys look posers. "Please look at me, I am so sexy". Please. Old anime guys hadn't this idiotic thing. Andrè for example was sexy because of his personality and great characterization, not because he showed himself in fanservice poses.  |

You don't see that nowadays, it's all done using programs on the computer. Back then they were hand drawn too but doing something like that today would require time to make sure it's as polished as it can be. With the increase in production compared to a few decades ago, that kind kind of production would need time, effort, and dedication opposed to using computer programming. momoka16 said: Anyway, people who come here to bash old anime, I don't get them. I clearly said this thread is for people who want to watch some good old series, because I saw hundreds of them and I can give you some advises, especiallly if you are tired of trashy isekai, harem, battle shounen, BL, cute girls doing cute things and stuff, and you want something REALLY different. People weren't trying to bash on older anime though, some were pointing out how you were letting your bias get in the way of seeing there is talent in today's production. |

| @momoka16 Just my personal preference but curly sideburns are just a huge NOPE. xD I honestly can't stand the way anime guys were drawn before the 90s (Ranma was ok) but for a lack of a better word, most of them looked like total fruitcakes. Like...why are their eyelashes an inch long!? IT'S WEIRD!! XD You can barely tell them apart from the womens!! I'd take Inuyasha over Godai any day, honestly. And no, guys don't HAVE to take their clothes off and pose to be sexy; a truly sexy guy looks good in literally ANYTHING he puts on. |

Do you even know that Godai and Inuyasha are from manga made by the same artist, Rumiko Takahashi?   I got that you prefer HARD face lines rather than SOFT face lines. I am the complete opposite. Also Takahashi art style went from soft to hard progressively. |
| Well I like old anime but can't get what the OP is trying to say here. 1. When you love something there is no point to explain why...like proving that you actually do? People wouldn't believe you? Why making a discussion? 2. "stories: they were always very complex and often full of drama" - not always...at least not in my experience. Also "full of drama" is not always a good thing for a story. 3. "characters: they weren't empty stereotypes" - come ooon. You don't actually believe that. And about stereotypes...it highly depends on how they are used. 4. "art: the animation was often very beautiful, almost every anime had an unique art style, the drawings were handmade and the coloring so warm" - now that's subjective and there are enough old titles with botched animation. It's more of a production problem or choice of animators. 5. "number of the episodes: the series were pretty long, usually they had at least 50 episodes" - not all of them and not always a good thing. In some cases the studios were forced to make some horrible cheaply made episodes just to fulfil the contractual obligation. In other cases to squeeze a 100+ episode worth of story into 50 episodes, early cancelled shows ect. The only good number of episodes for a season is the one that fits the production cycle better. 6. "Well, now I'll link some openings" - those are not always a good indication of how the actual show looked and was animated (like OP/ED looking way better because they must promote the show) also they can be misguiding about the content. |
