>Amazing Cyberpunk setting
>Lots of sex and violence
>Great animation that holds up
>Predicted before everyone that Boomers are fucking evil

Why haven't you given this series a watch anons?

>>280800367 (OP)
because I watched it before you were born

>>280800667

Cool story unc.

But anon I'm wearing my Tokyo Knight Sabers shirt RIGHT NOW

>>280800367 (OP)
In the middle of watching it right now

>>280800367 (OP)
>>Predicted before everyone that Boomers are fucking evil

What the FUCKING SHIT does boomer even mean in this context? A boomer to a zoomer is a 30 year old. A boomer to someone in the 80s is an actual literal definition of baby boomer

>>280801067
They're called boomers because they're giant robots that go BOOM
>expecting /a/ to actually watch anime

>>280801080
I'm a boomer I dont jive with torrents

>>280801168
lolwut
Everyone who got into older anime uses torrents

>>280801188
I did hard time for pirating smash mouth from livewire. I'll never torrent again.

>>280800939
Awesome, tell me what you think. Some of the pacing for the stories can be a bit all over the place but it picks up in the middle episodes and the sequels are much better.

>>280800872
Pics NAO

>>280801067
Literally the bad guys are Boomers. WATCH THE SHOW.

>>280801188
>>280801168
Just watch them on the usual streaming places most of the classics are uploaded now. Some of the more obscure old shit is torrent only. I would use torrents more since it's better quality and you will actually own the files but my ISP monitors for that shit.

i miss animes having a budget

>>280800367 (OP)
Any romance?

>>280800367 (OP)
It's... just okay. It has alot of untapped potential. Cute/sexy girls in Iron Man suits fighting robots in a cyberpunk setting sounds cool but the show just lacks that certain x factor to make it awesome. I loved the character designs in the Tokyo 2040 show but the animation wasn't good and the story was worse. Honestly Burn Up! Excess had hotter girls with a sillier plot and if you want Cyberpunk with super edgy violence then Angel Cop is way better.

>>280800367 (OP)
Because i prefer Cyber City Oedo

>>280801285

Well shit anon, major props to you. It's sort of crazy how all the "futuristic" shit from the 80s/90s is coming up time wise.

Has anyone ever recognized what that shirt was for? I'll wear my Lina Inverse shirt and no one notices, I wear a Cowboy Bebop shirt and random people stop me.

>>280801239
IDK if you're kidding but I DO know people that got hit with fines for that shit. I got a cease and desist letter from someone for using a torrent. Now I just use streaming sites even though they're shit cause that letter scared me lol

>>280801557
I have had ZERO people recognise it ;-;
The only cope I have is that maybe they recognise it and are too shy to talk to me, but I doubt it

>>280801490
This is valid. I also agree that they could have tightened up some things. City Hunter is great cause it is basically a cheesy 80s action movie in anime form. Dirty Pair was also pretty funny. I liked the OVA better than the show.

>>280801617
People usually aren't good with subtle anime designs like that. Like if I have Eva characters on my shirt people will say something, but very few say something about any of my shirts with the Nerv logo. Even the fucking AoT military police logos a lot of people don't recognize. Unless it's something super well known, most people won't comment on it.

Someone was wearing a pendant of this girl who is super well known from the memes and they said it was me and someone else 3 years ago that were the only ones that ever said anything to him.

>>280801418
Amazing. We need to do a cyberpunk anime general and make fun of the people that have only seen Cyberpunk 2077

>>280800367 (OP)
Consider watching the 2040 reboot too. I liked it more than the original

>>280800667
ditto.

I feel like OVAs are the best way to enjoy mecha
/m/ keeps recommending 50 episode MOTW garbage

>>280801168
>>torrents
>never got mangas or vhs tapes at the comic store
>never got bootleg vhs tapes

>>280800367 (OP)
I have it downloaded, but I am procrastinating.

>>280800367 (OP)

Anyone saying there was a bubble needs the headcheese blown out of its skull because you have a single digit IQ.

>>280802723
Correct, the best way to consume the Getter saga for example, is to only read the original manga series first and then watch the OVAs. In fact, the OVAs other than Armageddon such as Shin Getter Robo vs Neo Getter Robo aren't really necessary unless you have nothing better to do.

>>280801490
The production's consistent quality is the x factor. Taste not withstanding (80's bishoujo to me is a lot sexier than the deformity adjacent girls of the 90's) I don't think you appreciate technical execution enough.
The self seriousness of Angel Cop is terminal.

>>280803023
The production quality is phenomenal, but it doesn't make up for the lackluster misfire of the story. The premise of Bubblegum Crisis is just way better than what the execution was, a problem that alot of anime has.

Here's some music for the thread:

These videos make this show look way cooler than it actually was.

You're demonstrably non compos mentis if you'd even dare say the 1980s has ANY anime.

>>280803023

>>280803073
The story isn't a misfire. It's unambitious.
Like the very action films of the time that inspired it. If you bring fun and spectacle you've done what you came to do.

>>280801409
Not really. There's a pair of cops, one a simp and the other a fag, and sexbots, but no real romance.

>>280802723
>I feel like OVAs are the best way to enjoy anime
fixed
Hellsing Ultimate proved this long ago

>>280802723
Bubblegum Crisis designs come from a 25 episode MOTW garbage.
Cute loli though.

>>280801490
>if you want Cyberpunk with super edgy violence then Angel Cop is way better.
Angel Cop was only good for the first half.

>>280800667
Same, it's in my top 10.

>>280800367 (OP)
I watched it before fast internet became common. Old time fansubs would send vhs through mail and even rent a theater where they would show a few episodes of some series and a movie. Those guys made better subs than anyone today official or fansub.

>>280802723
nah, ovas are a meme, only handful of them are decent.

>ovas are a meme
What did she mean by this
