I just watched "Vampire Hunter D" for the first time. It rules, I can also see its influence in a lot of other anime, scifi, and other cool nerd shit. It's really a shame I have never sat down and watched it until now. It fuckin' rips!.

I need more animated films of that era that aren't made for the selling of toys. Doesn't have to be anime but really any sort of sleeper/underrated animated films from the 80s and 90s. I need more animated cinema.

Dallos (4-part OVA, but basically a film length): Mamoru Oshii makes space communism the anime.

Dragon's Heaven: Cool one-shot OVA. Mobius vibes in the art and a banger scale model opening.

Metal Skin Panic MADOX-01: Another one-shot mecha OVA. Simple plot, but a fun ride with solid animation.

Space Runaway Ideon - A Contact and Be Invoked: a double feature movies by Gundam creator Tomino. The fist one is a compilation film - the TV version is better, but that's not the assignment here. The second is one of the best sci-fi anime movies of all time. Evangelion copied a lot of stuff from this movie.

Oh, and it's not old, but Redline fucking rips

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Redline is so fucking cool. Get the og, don't get any of the "4k upscales", the hand drawn animation loses it's magic when an ai smoothes everything over.

Good call, and happy accountiversary!

Redline rules! Love every frame of it, it's a little outside of my desire OG timeframe but it's worth mentioning because it fuckin' RIPSSSS! So good. It's also got a good message of following your dream and not letting anything get in your way and love solves most problems.

All of these sound rad and I have zero frame of reference for any of them. Very exited to check these out. Thanks!

NP! Watching old OVAs can be a fun rabbit hole to dive down since there's dozens of them, and the time commitment is a lot shorter than watching a full show. Hope you have fun with it!
