No one forced you to click on these threads, yet you bitch on every single one, if you hate older anime that's fine, but you got over 20 threads of newer shows and shows currently airing that you can click instead of being a little bitch

Bejita I just shatted my pants noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I watched the first episode of Gosenzo-sama Banbanzai! yesterday. It was interesting, but I'm not sure I like it enough to stick through to the end.

>>280910286
Truth is the discussion here is ass and everyone here should be doing this stuff on the dedicated Wap threads, especially if you're mad about people shitting up these threads. Like really, if you guys went on Wap and did your weekly routine of spamming 100 reaction images/screenshots than maybe Wap would finally get some traction. Just last week there was a watch party and nobody showed up. Stop complaining and go to your dedicated board, poor figadmin works so hard to make the place nice yet all of you supposed retroheads come here to do the same thing every week when you could at least do it on a place that is catered to your every need and desperately needs posters.

>>280910562
Honestly, it's a shame how dire English imageboards are for users.
Most English speakers like the idea of being on a niche site, but nobody wants to actually move a way from the "relevant" spots. Figadmin, like acid/Mark or the webring guys, they can all put in as much effort as they want but nobody wants to actually leave 4chan.
Even the most "successful" non-4chan imageboard, the sharty, exists purely as an extension of 4chan and KF and has no real purpose beyond that. This isn't like Japan where there's a bunch of niche circles that maybe 6-10 people occupy, because people always want constant engagement and don't want to go to more than a handful of sites to get that.

On pre-2000s threads though, these have always sucked. It's mostly just people posting the same few anime with the same few screencaps. Like, we're finally gonna get a legendary 60s anime like Sasuke translated into English this year, and will there be anyone in these threads posting about it? Maybe one guy, but that's it because these threads aren't for discussing older anime, they're for iterating.
This is also why an actual /ar/ board would fail.

>>280910715
TRVTH NVKE, and yet they will continue to act as if it's impossible to even attempt to fix things. Every suggestion to change is met with half ass excuses or false promises. You pussies need to stop tentatively committing to something you're supposed to be enthused about. How hard is it to write a half thought out paragraph dedicated to whatever you've been watching or to replying to what someone else has to say about what they've been watching? Really you faggots are so full of shit.

>>280910510

>>280910048
36 good / very good shows are better than having a metric ton of hentai quality slop that 95-99% of this era shows.

>>280910999
Why does a show need to be good to talk about it?

>>280910999

Retrotards put more effort into responding to b8 than they do discussing anime.

> Even the most "successful" non-4chan imageboard, the sharty, exists purely as an extension of 4chan and KF and has no real purpose beyond that

That definately isnt the most successful, its just the newest one you probably go to.

>>280910562

The watchparty they had a bunch of ovas nobody either heard of or didnt like and it wasnt happening at my mobile speed. You cant draw everybody in with ultra obscure taste.
Those old saturday watches we did here during covid were nice and had no issues with streaming on mobile.

Did ippo fight miyata-kun yet

>>280909350 (OP)
I'm glad Riku Sanjo is still active in the industry, hopefully Bouken ou Beet gets to finish one day

>>280911151
>bunch of ovas nobody either heard of or didn't like
And there you have it, straight from the retrotards mouth, retrotards watch the same 36 shows and can't be bothered to watch something that isn't catered to them by consensus. The OVAs weren't even that obscure, one of them was a TAKAFUCKINGHASHI OVA that any fan of UY should be aware of, and the other two were obscure in comparison, but very accessible and reminiscent of their respective era of anime. Way to admit you're just a stuck up faggot who doesn't even watch anime.

>>280911151
>That definately isnt the most successful, its just the newest one you probably go to.
It absolutely is the most successful, unless you want to start talking about (now) dead sites like the original 8ch and 420.
Of the current, existing imageboards, it is objectively the second most active English one.
Also, in what universe is wap's stuff "obscure"? It's a site founded on fucking UY posting, figadmin has niche tastes but every schedule I see for his groupwatches are pretty normal OVAs.

>>280911352

Missed the point entirely, not everybody that watches old stuff watched all of it or even wants to watch all of it.
That is entirely a modern phenomenon that came with you people blessed with streaming and torrents.
You want to get people to watch what you like try to get them in the door with something they might.
It was already done before like i already mentioned, it was working untill they put the kibosh on it here.

>>280911801
>Pre-2000s thread
>anons are justifying why they don't watch Pre-2000s anime

>>280911801
Oh boy here's the coping and meandering to explain why retrofans can't have discussion/enjoy what they're supposedly into, as predicted. You can devote entire threads to posting the same reaction images and single line samefagging posts, but you can't devote two hours to trying something new.
If anything, your sad excuse about not being able to watch random retroa just proves itself wrong. How retarded is it that in a time where you CAN stream and torrent anything and retro a is more accessible THAN EVER that the apparent retro a fans can't even be bothered to participate in a dedicated watch party with a bro who even puts it on CRT AND is very open to suggestions, if anyone showed up to make them. Now he's not going to do it for who knows how long and you faggots will continue to make these garbage threads.

>>280910715
>Like, we're finally gonna get a legendary 60s anime like Sasuke translated into English this year, and will there be anyone in these threads posting about it?

Probably not, but I kind of expect that. A lot of retro anons just don't care about anime made before the 1980s.

>>280912453
For these threads, anime history basically boils down to
>Ashita no Joe
>Rose of Versailles
>Gundam
>Urusei Yatsura
>Ranma
>80s OVAs
>90s anime
With few exceptions.

>>280912242

You either need to take your medicine or not take so much of it. I never said dont have discussion about "retro" anime or not to watch random ovas.
I definitely aint the one filling threads up with reaction images here.
Im one of the only people that even posts over there, if not the only one.
Do whatever you want, and so will i.

>>280909634

>>280912796
You're the one missing the point. Your excuses aren't to say we shouldn't have discussions/watch threads, they're to EXCUSE you and the rest of the fags who don't do either, but do this shit instead. That's what excuses are dumbass.

Yeah, being quick to write off anything that's different from the anime they're used to is why they don't care.

>>280910715
I'm looking forward to Sasuke. I love 60s Dororo already.

For me it's Aisha Clanclan

I like Shin Cutie Honey the best

I recently watched this movie called Crimson Wolf in which the ghosts of Qin Shi Huang, Genghis Kah and Mao Zedong turn into a giant super computer that goes all AM. It was a very truncated adaptation of a longer manga and boy did it feel like it. It was not terrific.

>>280912453
Yatterman (1977) is fully subbed in English thanks to some autistic fan, the show might be a episodic comedy and most episodes do play out the same, but I think it is a pretty fun show overall still, 108 episodes is probably too long for some anons tho

>>280916335
>108 episodes is probably too long for some anons tho
I could never understand this. So many fans just want their series to be done and over and be bingeable. Nobody ever wants a show to be part of their routine anymore.

Honestly it's amazing that NoraInuG is still kicking around after all these years. They've been fansubbing since the 90s at least iirc.

They're why we've got English fansubs of the 70s Cyborg 009.

Can’t we all just get along like the good old times? I’m usually a major participant in these threads but for quite some time especially last year I haven’t really had the time to do so and there’s a reason. I’ve been watching a whole ton of these, and not just the 90s and 80s stuff, I’ve also checked out material from the 70s and a lesser extent the 60s but here’s something from 1956, check it out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIED1vIuW-Y

>>280918454
Never watched the modern one.
The movie's great. One of the best early 80s sci-fi films I've seen.

>>280919389
Did you see Yumemi Douji? It's very pretty

>>280919400
I shall give it a look

>>280919500
Not yet but I am thinking about it at some point, this one’s historical for being the first toei anime at just 20 minutes, it was almost instantly overshadowed by tale of the white serpent that came out the same year which I have seen. Really, everyone here SHOULD absolutely check out the toei theatrical anime, they were significant enough to have had theatrical releases in America and toei was even once referred to as the Disney of the east. In order to truly be a retrohead, one must think outside of the box

>>280915646
I wonder if Sasuke does okay if AnimEigo will do Ninpuu Kamui Gaiden. I really should buy the D&Q volumes already.

>>280919581
People should watch them because they are good, but I get those arguments sometimes help.

>>280920090
I don't think pointing out the historical significance of a work has ever really worked out for me, at least personally.

I recently watched the first episode of Samurai Giants and really fell in love with how expressive and over the top it was. I wish I was at my computer so I could post webms of it.

>>280920783
oh. It's about baseball. I thought it was... never mind actually.

>>280921723
Truth be told I know fuck all about baseball and mostly checked it out because the staff is pretty stacked, including Miyazaki on key animation.

>I thought it was...

Sorry anon, maybe one day they'll make an anime about giant samurai.

watching this on a crt rn its very good

>>280921920
It's strange honestly. I very much don't care for sports but I'm a real sucker for sports fiction. In a lot of ways it's really the most "human" type of story telling. You got your underdogs. Your struggle against adversity. Your great enemies and challenges. Mix in some side drama and romance if you will and it's the recipe for an rousing tale.

>>280922035
That's a good first step but I hope it's on the ideal format of bootleg poorly rerecorded VHS tapes

>>280922095
Ashita no Joe is pretty much the greatest example of people not necessarily giving a shit about the sport in the manga itself beforehand, but still getting invested in it anyway because the human drama is compelling.

>>280928004
I mean IF you stop at episode 4(where the OVA was supposed to have ended on) then it’s a fairly proper ending with the last remnant of panther zora being defeated once and for all

>>280928478
Nah it's pretty bad. It's just random 80's anime tropes trown together that have nothing to do with dream stuff. Episode 2 has a giant robot appearing outside the dreams just because.

>Nah it's pretty bad.
Incorrect.
>It's just random 80's anime tropes trown together [..] Episode 2 has a giant robot appearing outside the dreams just because.
Correct. The only problem is that the creators never got the opportunity to exhaust those tropes.

Fun fact: The panda go panda shorts were primarily attached as the animated featurette to the Godzilla films, it’s been reported that many individuals that bought tickets to see the Kaiju films were looking more forward to these instead of the main feature. Miyazaki would later obviously take elements from these into a certain film released in 1988, I don’t need to clarify what movie I’m talking about, IYKYK

I rewatched both the movie and the series recently. I still liked both, but while the movie flashed me like 20 years ago, I've felt at least some problems with the series. I don't know if it's the pace or the structure, but even though there's always something different happening and the general plot is moving forwards, I still got the impression of a basic <thing of the week>. Many problems got resolved too quickly with big jumps from one plot point to the other. Also the ending of the series is to somber in contrast to the rest. A happy end would have fit pretty good. Also Hitomi best girl

It feels somewhat surreal that I've seen many shows on that list on the regular tv program, when I was a child / teenager. I didn't even know how much I have been spoiled with quality with 90% of it being part of the world masterpiece theater 'franchise'.

It's Toki!

snuffy is so fuckable this is fucked up

I recently finished Nadesio and I have zero clue how Ruri was one of the most popular female characters for like 3 years after this show aired. Japs must have been fucking starved of a good loli character back then. Regarding the show, I thought it was fun for the first half when it was being goofy, but as soon as the show tried getting a little serious, it fell off hard. I think with the right director and some changes to the plot and pacing, the serious turn could have worked... maybe.

>>280939129
Looks good in general. I guess a few have poor subtitles. Also the Kinpatsu no Jeanie pic is from the 90s anime, which is a different story.

>>280939129

That one's kinda dubious since ARR subs are notoriously low quality.

>>280940094
You missed the point entirely. Watch again but maybe this time pay attention.

>>280940404
Oh ARR, they’re totally something, was watching raideen and once the /m/subs stopped at like episode 38(because they didn’t finish yet) it switched to the older ARR subs, quality was significantly lower and some episodes we’re using the ITALIAN DUB, plus for whatever they purposely made mistranslations and to my awe they we’re making jabs at 4chan, I knew that they had some beef with /m/ since that’s my home board but had no idea they went as far as actually reference those arguments on the subtitles themselves!

>>280940536
Nah, I'm not gonna waste my time. Bad drama is bad. It's not about whether there's good rationale behind the intent, the execution is terrible. There's a reason why this show has been forgotten while other shows from the 90s that weren't nearly as popular back then have gotten revivals since.

>>280940833
I remember once being told the argument "Well it's better than nothing" but I can't help but feel, and perhaps I'm being dramatic, that bad subs are probably way worse. Bad subs aren't really better than raws a lot of the time but the bigger issue I fear is that potential NEW subbers won't be spot checking existing subs for quality. They'll see shows XYZ are subbed and leave it at that thus potentially blocking the chance for a better group who won't half ass shit to pick it up.

>>280940903

>>280941025
Being remembered by the original generation that watched and liked it at the time is hardly an achievement. When people talk about any work of art being "remembered," they're talking about new generations continually discovering it and liking it enough to reproduce it or reference it. There's only a handful of 90s anime that are actually remembered and Nadesico ain't it.

Thanks for the input.
>>280940404
I have heard similar concerns for a few other 70s anime. People's thresholds for what is acceptable for this stuff differs so I just decided to be as generous as possible. In the future I might add notes to give additional information such as license status, if it is dubbed or if the subtitles are suspect.

>>280942192
I promise you that they don't deserve that courtesy.
