This is the era I got into anime, and I do think it was the best. So many unique and interesting concepts. So much ambition and drive to do something impressive instead of regurgitate what came before.
The main downside was anime so often spent their last 3 or 4 episodes turning into some absolute pseudointellectual gibberish to try to prove they were super duper smart. JRPGs had the exact same problem.
