Hodgepodge posted:likewise not to do the it was better before it was popular thing, but there's still a bit of an underground vibe that attaches to the older stuff in the west, perhaps in part to the specific choices of what to translate for the westerns market playing into this. lots of wild ideas and cyberpunk scifi. i think the 90s was the last gasp of all the animators that grew up in the student protest movement so you see all that grungy, pro-revolutionary stuff as opposed to the 00s era of "fascism, but twee"

Previous website I used shut down, and I was looking to maybe get a subscription, but I heard cruncyroll are a bunch of pricks (and if you watch a 20 min show on the website, it literally gives you 24m worth of ads.) you can kiss your anime for free

Pener Kropoopkin posted:The posthumously published book was so good that it entered the Japanese literary canon despite being based on an incomplete manuscript. I'm not sure there's anything similar in the Western canon. I'm trying to come up with an incomplete Western classic and all I can think of is the Silmarillion, which is just a famous book for nerds. Gogol's Dead Souls

Pener Kropoopkin posted:You really do forget how many stinkers got aired on adult swim/toonami. Pilot's Candidate is the only one I can remember because it was by far the worst. I think at the time I didn't like Blue Gender because it was too nihilistic/fatalistic, but at least the bugs and mechs were cool. Dunno what I'd think of it now but I doubt it's worth revisiting. they tried to show every "dark" anime series of the early aughts I assume the only reason they didn't air texhnolyze was because someone actually screened it and then had to call out for a few days
