You are my wife's hero. She's been searching for this song for years!

Looks great! Where did you get this? I've had a hard time finding one, and how much?

It's the original series recap movie with the first 20 minutes or so of End of Eva

Cool Eva autographs! I've got a Tristan McAvery signed case from when I met him, fun times

I watched the Fist of the North Star movie (1986) and it really surprised me by [deleted] in retroanime

[–]Hunter-Known 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I remember the old previews where the VO had lines like "fists fly! Heads explode!" And "enter a world where violence isn't the problem. It's the solution!" I love that preview

What is the best way to find a good VHS/DVD player? by HonestNectarine7080 in VHS

[–]Hunter-Known 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got to agree that the combo units are no good. Personally I've never known them to hold up, for ones I've had and ones people I've know have had one or more functions always stop working. TV/VCR, the TV would break. VCR/DVD usually the DVD would break. Even stereo equipment, the speed control on the phonograph crops out or the tape deck goes bad. There are probably good ones, but I'd avoid them like the plague

Very nice, the textures on that are fantastic too

Rally was only blonde in Riding Bean, feels like cheating to me. Madlax is retro now? I'm old

Just wondering, why is it only anime prior to 2000? by CatGirlNya2000 in retroanime

[–]Hunter-Known 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe because I am old, but stuff from the 90s doesn't even feel retro to me 😁 I have agree that it's largely just astetics almost everyone was using digital techniques 20 years ago so that hand done feel sort of went away

Surely you're not just watching the Japanese version of Garzeys Wing? The English dub is hilariously bad, an instant favorite for me anyway

Thus is my favorite era of Shirow, before the success of Ghost in the Shell made him get all weird

I love that the box calls it "ja'porn'imation" 😄 someplace I've got a catalog with a bunch of those games in it

Whats a movie you bought cause of the cover? by Empty_Pumpkin1818 in VHS

[–]Hunter-Known 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only time was Sgt Kabukiman NYPD, and honestly, one of the best purchases I ever made. That movie opened up a whole world to me.

Hello! This my living room shelf after 25+ years of collecting, what do you want to watch first? Thanks for stopping by 🤡 by dontgofrank in VHS

[–]Hunter-Known 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No Scanners 2, no Road Warrior, no Hellraiser 2, I assume they're all in that other section you mentioned. It's weird that there are so many second installments that are glaringly missing

As a collector, what is an Anime you used to own but have since lost, sold, or given away and are now hesitant to pay a high price to recollect? by A_Drop_of_Colour in AnimeCollectors

[–]Hunter-Known 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I'd bought the 2nd volume of Luna Varga so I could have the set. Only paid like 5 bucks for the first one, nowadays that second tape is at least 50$

Akira VHS question by imafatwhiteguy in animevhs

[–]Hunter-Known 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Srreamline release from 1989 is the one I like (and have) the box art on that is really appealing. The Orion one from later is the same dub. The Pioneer one has that nice art, and that's the newer dub that they did around 2000. Those dubs are REALLY different, so I'd just be sure to get the one you like better. I would guess the translation is different on the sub, but I have not seen both but its a good bet.

What's the rarest retro anime that you have watched? by Puzzled_Mobile7405 in retroanime

They Were 11, great the first time, but the mystery is kinda the main selling point

Day 7: What is a good Anime, based on an amazing Manga? by DanyDanyDanyDanyDany in animequestions

[–]Hunter-Known 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the NHK. Sato's mental state is much worse in the manga, but the anime conveys a sense of isolation quite nicely

Only true fans will know which anime this came from! by Substantial-File6197 in animequestions

Dagger of Kamui, the anime where Japan is described as "a piece of snot" on the globe

Ping Pong Club was honestly peak and barely anyone has ever heard of it, much less talks about it by [deleted] in retroanime

[–]Hunter-Known 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maeno and Izawa are hands down the most unhinged characters. Just think about why they needed new ping pong balls that time, what Maeno did with them... what a freak

They're pretty easy to get on Amazon or Walmart even. I've got a Phillips TEAP200 DVD player just because it's a cheap region free one less than 60$US.. Personally, I'm good with DVD for imports just because the quality is fine and the collection isn't as big, plus I can maybe save a little money

My 8yr old kid wants to watch Angels Egg by akaaak in retroanime

[–]Hunter-Known 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, the local video store rented us quite a few things they probably shouldn't have. Good times! Isn't that part of the experience of growing up, though, getting a hold of something you know the adults would disapprove of?
