Pre-1990 Anime?

Any old school fans out there? There is a lot of great anime out there from back in the day, but you rarely see it represented- generally it's not easy to find, and the younger crowd is spoiled by digital animation. Just recently I've become very interested in this older stuff : ) I'm in love with the original 1979 Captain Harlock series, Starblazers, Future Boy Conan, Vampire Hunter D, Macross, Legend of the Galactic Heroes (that one's kind of a crossover since it ran into the 90's).

I'm just curious as to how many people like the old school stuff and what you watch!

    Well everyone has different tastes in anime. Those you mentioned that suck could be the favorites of many people. But to answer this, I can say that the world is getting more advanced (with new technology and such) therefore people's imagination are dying. What's on the Internet? P.o.r...you can finish that sentence. Maybe that is why there are a lot of echo animes now. Its because people own more tech now and they discover these things. The artists want to satisfy the audience so yeah, echhi stuff is created.

    Tonari no Totoro will always have a warm place in my heart. Castle in the Sky is wonderful as well.
