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.
Space Dandy, Project A-ko, Dirty Pair, Record of Lodoss War, Gurren Lagann, Macross, Fist of the North Star is proto Jojo.
As far as movies Perfect Blue if you don't watch anything else from this list, Night on the Galactic Railroad, Venus Wars, Wicked City and Vampire Hunter D has a few adaptations but they're all worth checking out.
Record of Lodoss War, Macross, and Fist of the North Star are all shows I've heard of before. Space Dandy looks fun as hell. Project A-ko also looks cool. LOL the description of Dirty Pair sounds great "If you're in a big trouble, call the World Welfare Work Association or WWWA. They will send out a team of highly trained capable agents called Trouble Consultants who can solve your problems. But if the team they send you is the Dirty Pair, there will be a lot of collateral damage aside from solving your problems.", and thats a second Gurren Lagann recommendation, and a second Perfect Blue recommendation. Night on the Galactic Railroad sounds interesting. Venus Wars looks cool, something very Metal Slug about the vehicle designs. Vampire Hunter D is another I've heard of before as well.
Thanks!
