for the record. when I edited this I forgot to include zz gundam op2 which is a masterpiece and should be placed no2. can't change it now, but released updated version below
• The Top 10 Best 1980's...
Top 10 Cyberpunk Anime Openings • The Top 8 Best Cyberpu...
This is a personal list of my favourite mecha anime openings from the 1980's. As a top 10 many good ones didn't quite make the cut. Honourable mentions go to; Galvion (1984), Orguss (1983), Xabungle (1982), Mospeada (1983), Ideon (1980), Transformers Victory (1989), Dragonar (2nd OP 1987) and numerous others. (and GoLion)

What's most striking to me is how much they _tried_ to create a 3D look, even when none of it was actual 3D. I wouldn't be surprised if 3D letterings and some other easy 3D effects were projected by hand, which would explain the imperfections. Now, we have real 3D, but a lot of the magic was lost.

Watching 100% hand made stuff made me realize how much of a loss is the predominence of CGI. What makes the force and beauty of hand made, is that every frame, every second, someone put his true spirit into his work. It's a heart to heart process, one you can't find or feel with something calculated by a machine.

@Eric_Malbos 5 жыл бұрын

I think you are mixing up with 3D animation : You should know that it is still the same in TODAY 2D animation. Animators still have to draw carefully EVERY FRAME BY HAND, the difference is they are doing it on a drawing tablet instead of celluloid. So yes they are still putting their heart and spirit into their work. They deserve all our respect.

The Technology that was used is still para para, But it doesnt exist anymore in todays world, and cannot be recreated, Thats why preservation is imperative, when these shows are even hard to come by in nihon. You wouldnt trash a Rembrandt would you? In Louvren they preserve actively, they have agents that search and to find Everything, But legislators said in our age that Neither the Archives or the work of art had a place or rigth to exist in our Louvren. Thats why we were quite Flamished when we understood they tried and did create Sotocrushretro stream. When the Whole Archive was there, But we will never yield to mankinds deniers of belief and higher ideals: Never! May death take us before we yield to the tyranny of massdestruction by the commonlot of Legislators: The Crown has the power and will to act over the tribunals that sought to use our birthrigth and divine authority for their crimes and theft against man.

@Riceball01 6 жыл бұрын

You definitely should check it out, it's one of my all time favorites from the '90s when we were getting a flood of anime coming from several different distributors. It's a great story, great animation with character designs by Haruhiko Mikimoto of Macross fame. Just so you're aware, there is a bit of fan service in the first couple of episodes, a bit of boob jiggle and bare breasts but that's only in the first couple of episodes or so and there's no more afterwards or if there is it's tone down greatly. Another thing about Gunbuster to be aware of is that it's not an entirely serious anime, it gets a bit over the top at times with old anime tropes but that's because its, in a way, a tribute show where they pay homage to old animes of the past. The main character, Noriko, is shown to be something of an otaku although it doesn't play a rolei n the show

I remember an old, old performance of Pee Wee Herman where he showed a Spanish language dubbed anime that was hyper violent, suggesting there's a lot of anime that never makes it to the US.

More didnt make it over than did. The ones that did were chopped to bits or combined with other series. Weird stuff.

Animes have a lot of sex and violence. American TV management doesn't want to that go on. That may be why Starblazers went on at 6 am in 1979.

I never knew Japan had this many Mecha shows outside Super Robo Taisen.

@mlo009 4 жыл бұрын

In Super Robo Taisen, pretty much a majority came from these 80's robot shows. Especially when it comes to Super-mecha types, Real types are more for gundams. SRT (or Super Robo War) is a game genre compilation of these.

There was only one of these shows I'd never heard of before. I love 80's mecha anime. They're super stylish in a lot of ways. By the way, where are the Macross scenes from? (They're obviously not from the original show.)

Almost every anime looks glossy and so CGI nowdays...not all of them, but most. Everything from mid 80's up to maybe 05/06 is gold to me.

@@60508 Delta isn't "just" terrible story. It also has awful characters and setting, which further highlights how bad the overall show is. It's amazing that people fake being so emotionally invested in characters like Messer when his spotlight follows the three-episode death trope. The fact that the war even took a break in griefing for him made it even funnier.

@@KhayJayArt Idols has been a part of Macross since the beginning, yes. _But Delta made the idols omnipotent_ --able to fly and deflect mech-grade lasers and missiles. Not only that, but the Valkyries that were previously the main stage of the whole franchise...got side-stepped. The whole idea of the idols being perfect beings clash with the reasons of why Valkyries existed in the first place, which is partly why Delta is such a trashfire. Add in incorrect lore (due to no other person thab Kawamori himself has worked on Macross) and you get a recipe for disaster.

Yep 'Delta' was the worse thing to happen to the Macross IP since the character of NEKI BASRA was introduced in 'Macross 7' (~_~)' I actually was hoping that the Protodeviln would just simply win, destroy most the fleet and Kill him by (episode#6) "his character was so obnoxious (Made the chaos that was 'Naruto' and his wildeness look like he was as withdrawn and stand offish as 'Sasuke') and most of Basra's songs totally sucked (I only remember one good one outta all of the songs they penned for that series) lol

Ol' Dangaioh. See, back in the very earliest days of anime commercialization in the US, pretty much the first outfit that sold anime as anime offered two titles in their debut: Dangaioh and Gunbuster. I'm pretty sure just a single episode in both cases. We all know Gunbuster went down in history as a bit of a landmark production. And Dangaioh slipped between the cracks as just another forgettable mid-80s shlocky anime. But I was just a very young punk at the time. I think I chose to buy Dangaioh ($35, by the way-basically a fortune to any kid) based on its somewhat more promising (to me) artwork. I still quite enjoyed what I got. Anime back then was sacred. Every single scrap was a treasure. As a consequence of my choice, I got to grow up with an anime that almost nobody's heard of. Naturally I, and everyone else, saw Gunbuster eventually. Had I chosen the other anime at the time, I probably wouldn't today have a clue what Dangaioh is, and its appearance in this countdown would go over my head just as easily as all the others I never heard of. Oh yeah. The people who subtitled Dangaioh back then, U.S. Renditions. F--- me but they did an AWFUL job. It's pretty clear to me now that they knew the Japanese language-as commercial subtitlers!-even less well than I do myself right now as just a fan of anime. Actually, translations of anime were universally dubious until roughly the advent of CrunchyRoll. That's a pretty long spell. Now just about the only ones still doing sh** translations are Disney, ironically.
