Kid: "Ok, boomer" Boomer: rips off skin and shoots a laser from its mouth
-
Somehow, the 80s were even more 80s in Japan. Well done.
-
- How much 80s vibe do you want in your anime sir? - YES
-
In 5 minutes, we are introduced to the characters, the plot, the setting, and the music.
-
80's anime has a certain vibe
-
I fully thought this was a joke song in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, not an incredibly deep cut to a classic anime.
-
My economics professor sent this link to our entire class. This dude is cool.
-
An anime from the 80’s about a future where rock music went underground, a corporation controls the world, and boomers are a serious problem. Prophetic!
-
The Future is the 80s, apparently.
-
I love that Priss and the Replicants is a direct reference to Blade Runner
-
and here I am, 34 years later still bopping along to this.
-
I prefer this artstyle to the great majority of today's anime.
-
That is the most beautifully animated sequence of a girl putting on a miniskirt I have ever seen.
-
The “I knew this song before Scott Pilgrim takes off” button
-
They said it couldn't be done -- ripping off Streets of Fire, Blade Runner, Aliens and Terminator all at the same time -- and then there was Bubblegum Crisis.
-
OMG The Clash At Demon Head scene is inspired by this, and then they put the song in the Scott's anime. AWESOMEEE
-
One of the biggest things I miss about '80s anime is the depth. In 5 minutes your immersed in a world where you completely understand the tone and the vibe, which it seems alien yet somehow familiar. Art in its most visceral form.
-
80s and 90s anime illustration outdoes everything today.
-
There is a reason Anime got so popular. And it was because of series like this. The 90's anime was amazing and the bubblegum crisis was one of my favs. I loved the music too.
