[QUOTE="WizarDru, post: 1561510, member: 151"] Who are you, and what have you done with the Real Rackhir? :) Man, what a tough call to make. In no particular order? 1) Space Cruiser Yamato - Oh, sure, they drove the concept into the ground....but the first two seasons are wonderful. A little silly, sure, and not amazingly animated by today's standards, but the story was terrific. I mean, the battle of the Andromeda fleet against the Comet Empire is worth the price of admission alone. 2) Space Pirate Captain Harlock (original TV Series): Spike Speigel is cool, but Harlock is just plain cooler, to me. Even though every series since appears to have been dogged by slow, slow, slooooow pacing, the original was the template for many shows that would follow. 3) Totoro. Really, one of the best animated movies ever. No, No, Castle Cagliostro. NO, Wait! Laputa, Castle in the Sky! WAIT! Spirited Away!! HOLD ON!! Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind! ARGG! Miyazaki, ok? 4) Super Dimensional Fortress Macross /Macross: Do You Remember Love? - Originally meant to be a parody, it evolved into a landmark show that was a proving ground for half of the anime professionals at work today. The talent read like a who's who of future anime masters, and it shows in the work. The big-budget movie still stands as a high watermark of animation. 5) Akira. A flawed masterpiece that still stands the test of time, and got widespread attention both for anime and a level of crossover respectability that few films have enjoyed before or since. Visually stunning, it was a ground-breaking flick, even if it didn't make a whole hell of a lot sense at the end, there. And there are so many more.... Dru (who thinks it's a shame that so many modern anime fans casually dismiss older shows due to less expensive animation, and miss some wonderful stories...) [/QUOTE]
