Anime Based on Significantly Older Manga
Anime
To qualify for the list, the manga had to be at least 15 years old when the anime came out. Organized in ascending order by length of time between manga and anime. Each manga can only be accounted for once, so no remakes - those go on a separate list.
List is incomplete. Let me know if there are any big ones I'm missing. Thanks to everyone who has helped me add to this list.
