Interest Stacks

Volume II: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/53730

Vibes. Absolute vibes.

I am attempting to curate the definitive catalog of THE most 𝓐𝓔𝓢𝓣𝓗𝓔𝓣𝓘𝓒 anime, found exclusively between the 80s and 90s!

Many millennials, Gen Z, or younger experience a 'longing' (often known as "anemoia") for the pre-internet world, when VHS tapes enveloped film in a comforting saturation, when stereos emitted synthpop, and when the warm sun caused the rippling seas to glisten just that much more.

This Interest Stack is curated to support members in finding entries which share highly specific or niche interests: that is: 80s-90s anime that boast a retro "aesthetic" prowess: an art style or color palette that evoke "vibes", "atmosphere", "ambiance", or "nostalgia".

These anime are brimming with screenshotable frames and GIF-worthy animations to suit any YouTube lo-fi mixtape, playlist of beats to study to, Pinterest feeds, or cater to anyone's longing for an ethereal bygone era.

“Looking at still images from the blu-ray of this anime makes me want to cry. People throw around the word ‘aesthetic’—they throw is around a LOT—especially when talking about old anime on VHS; but, I have never seen Shounan Bakusouzoku talked about.” — Kenny Lauderdale

P.S. I really tried not to use the word "vaporwave". But yeah. That's pretty much what this stack is.
