I've always wanted to have a decent thread talking about gems from the 80's but it's always ruined by people who assume it's just a rec thread. I don't see what's wrong with discussing your favorite movies/OVAs and just leave it at that. I have to explain myself just to keep the autists away.
With that being said. What's your favorite 80's films/OVAs. They can be known or obscure. I want to know what you like about them. They're the kind of stories that just don't exist anymore which is a shame.
I want to start Maison Ikkoku but I'm also too scared to do it because of fucking huge it is.

Adding to this, Zeorymer is another great mecha anime from the 80s. Really unique story as well.

They are kind of rec threads since there's no real discussion about one or two items, it's just people posting a whole bunch of titles until the thread dies.
That said, with the whole A E S T H E T I C movement, why aren't things like Bubblegum Crisis and Dirty Pair making waves again? The embody that retro movement perfectly.

I'm in the same situation with the same series. I just need to man the fuck up.
Leo Baker
This whole series.

It's great if you like romantic comedies, the only thing it suffers from is frequent "misunderstandings" that get annoying to watch because they could be solved with simple communication.
Camden Campbell
The 80s had Pink Jacket Lupin, which is dope as fuck. Giant Gorg and Gunbuster are also incredible, just to name a few.
Tyler Ramirez
is this worth it? I hear it gets tiring after like the first 50 episodes.
Alexander James
Zeorymer's absolute shit, fuck you. It's got production value and nothing else; you might as well be praising Great fucking Dangaioh.
Kevin Young
That sounds like a load of bull shit.
Dominic Lewis
a show that over 190 episodes long getting tiring explain to me how this idea can seem like bullshit? isn't it basically an episodic RomCom?
James Mitchell
Because it is, go watch it for yourself and see if you like it or not make your own opinion. Also Beautiful Dreamer the movie is a fucking masterpiece.
Carter Scott
explain the appeal and maybe I'll invest the time. The story even go anywhere or is it basically the same shit every episode. I imagine the guy gets some pussy at some point. I just don't wanna watch all of it just to end up disappointed at the fact that nothing even happens
Blake Davis
iria zeiram is female badass done.t right
Aiden Martin
>done.t >right How exactly did you fuck that up so badly?
