Hey Anime Nerds, what are some dope ass anime series that are "staples" that I probably haven't seen before?
(hexbear.net)
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.
The Berserk (1997 TV series) is one, plus the only good adaption of Berserk of all of them
People really like the 1999 Hunter x Hunter anime too
I think I've seen clips of Berserk, and I've totally heard of Hunter x Hunter, but neither of them I've watched. Putting them on the list!
The 2010 remake of Hunter x Hunter is also awesome and gets two more seasons of content that were made after the 1999 one came out.
The Chimera Ant arc in the 2010 series is one of my favourite seasons of any show. Anti- DPRK in hindsight but I watched it pre-radicalisation, and if you just ignore the liberalism of it the story is still peak.
All of the content warnings for Berserk, though. I've seen the movie adaptations and read the entire manga. It's an amazing story, but one focused on trauma.
