If I had only 60 minutes to show someone what your basic anime from the early to mid nineties was like I think this two episode OVA would work. The silly character tropes, the cool mechanical designs, jazzy and pop soundtrack, sweet battle animations, it's all there in some form or another.
If seeing a white ADV films VHS tape doesn't fill you with nostalgia you might not get much out of this. I've been going back and tracking down all those old series I saw previews for way back when. At the time I either didn't have the money or just couldn't find them. (I mean, this was before Amazon or eBay!) This show is a paramount example of the stuff you would find in that era.
The story is ultra basic, but that's what you get for such a short run time. There were a few bits of comedy that got a legit laugh out of me. I have a real soft spot for the ship and mecha designs. The audio and dub are on par for the time (not great but not terrible).
I got my copy off eBay still factory sealed 20 years after its production. The tape still played just fine in my VCR. And honestly I bought it for the novelty and nostalgia of popping in a tape and watching it on the CRT television that I keep around for retro gaming.
