Do you like old Ranma 1/2 fanfics and Fushigi Yuugi fanpages? Well, a ton of them are still up on the Internet Archive. Please enjoy. Here is an archived version of the site from the year 2000 to start with: http://web.archive.org/web/20000301164156/http://www.anipike.com:80/

quote:

Ranma stood up and started to walk away.
Akane stood up behind him.
"Ranma!" she cried out.
No answer. He continued to walk.
"Don't go!"
The darkness started to swallow him up.
"You BASTARD!" she screamed.
He stopped in mid-step, spun to face her. His pack fell to the
ground with a thud. His face was hidden in shadows, but his voice
was clear - and surprised. "What?"
"You thoughtless BAKA!" she screamed. Tears blurred her
vision. "Do you think you're the only one with a problem? The only
one who's had it tough all these months?"
She couldn't see him clearly. Blurry eyes and darkness
obscured him. "Akane?" he called out weakly.
"I... I sat here with you. Sat here for... for hours. Listening
to you whine. Complain. 'Bout how, how... HARD and UNFAIR
your life's been!" She wiped the back of her arms across her face. It
felt hot. "How you hate being a girl, how you don't have any friends.
How you miss... miss your MOTHER! Ha!" Ranma was closer now,
she could see him better.
"What about me, huh? You think it's been easy on me, too?
So you've had a tough life! So have I! So does everyone! _Deal_
with it! Grow up!"
"Ak... Akane? I... " he said.
"NO!" she yelled. "Don't interrupt! Don't... don't you dare
interrupt. Or leave. Not till I'm done. I listened to you; I kept my
anger to myself every time you said something stupid, or selfish, or
arrogant, or, or... STUPID! And it happened a lot, believe me. So...
so now, you... _you_ listen to _me_!"
Ranma opened his mouth, then slammed it shut. He nodded
once.

Sadly, they don't all have images, so you'll have to imagine the extremely low-resolution screenshots here:

the buu saga in general was pretty blatantly written by a guy who was out of ideas, the only thing that saves it from completely sucking is hercule

Gundam.com, there's a flashback. It just disappeared one day, was supposed to come back but never did. You'd think Bandai would have jumped on getting that URL, too.

Huh, nausicaa.net turned into a wiki at some point.

That place was probably one of the first pages I found (probably used hotbot to find it) after having memories of Warriors of the Wind dredged up somehow

I too yearn for the days where I used to read about the author's awesome original Evangelion pilot whose the son of Fox Mulder and Lara Croft and has SHODAN from System Shock as a robot butler and... well OK I knew it was crap then too, but man I get where you're coming from on the nostalgia.

I remember watching DBZ during middle school near the end of the 90s and I had this friend who would start literally shaking when he watched it. Like dudes would be powering up and he'd just start shaking. He just couldn't handle the excitement. I also made a geocities DBZ website during this same time.

The first non-DBZ anime I watched was these extremely low resolution Ranma 1/2 realplayer videos.

It's really weird seeing these people posting about being literally babies during a time when I was a teenager.
