I’m talking like, Bubblegum Crisis, an Anime that I am somehow aware of but have never watched.
I’ve seen bits and peaces of the stuff that was airing here in the 2000 like; Dragonball, Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon, Big O, Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, Yu Yu Hakusho, Inuyasha, Full Metal Alchemist, Ranma 1/2, Gundam Wing. I have not even begun to touch 1 Peace. Basically, if it was on Toonami, I’ve probably seen some of it.
I feel like there is stuff from the late 80s through the 90s that were popular through the import scenes that I probably never heard of, that everyone who is in that scene knows and loves.
Rose of Versailles absolutely slaps. I was a little skeptical going in, thinking a 70s anime would feel too dated, but it quickly became one of my favorites.
Written by a communist too, which is part of the reason it goes so hard.
