Did you grow up on Speed Racer, Star Blazers or Robotech?
Then this might be for you.
Rules:
1> Vintage is in the eye of the beholder but probably pre 2000s is a safe bet.
2> Discussion of new release of old shows is welcome
3> Discussion of unofficial releases should be limited to shows that are not currently available outside of Japan otherwise.
4> Have fun!

Mine was Mazinger Z. At the time it broadcasted, all we have was these naive 1930s/40s american Merry Melodies, or Hanna's Barbera Yogi bear. Watching a japanese dude driving that gigantic colorful robot, and fight a mechanical monster by the name of "Genocidal R-4", who destroys entire cities, was pure insane. It was a funny show for the age I watched it.
