YESSSSSSSSS!!!
I knew Adam and Hello Kitty would be besties!!!! ✨
Badtz-Maru fits Tadashi too (I thought Pochacco of course but BM was my second prediction )
1981: Urusei Yatsura (Those Obnoxious Aliens)
If you’ve watched anime in the last 40+ years, you’ve 100% seen this series’ influence.
I’m really excited to see the All Stars reboot coming out fall 2022!
You push the front bangs(fringe) up and give him more realistic street wear and I’m like “where did my boy go??” 🤣
SUZAKU WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU WEARING. I COULD NOT RECOGNIZE YOU WITHOUT THOSE FRONT BANGS IN YOUR FACE
1984: Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind
Honestly I think this is the best Ghibli film. Also my first watch was from a worn Chinese VHS copy and Nausicaa's pants looked like the same color as her skin. VERY CONFUSING.
Runner up: Urusei Yatsura Beautiful Dreamer
1988: My Neighbor Totoro
I watched maybe half of this and it was like a fever dream while subtitled in Chinese.
Fun story: The Ghibli Museum played a mini Totoro movie and I went "OH FUCK" while surrounded by small JP children when a big Cat suddenly flew in. Sorry.
1989: Ranma 1/2
I actually started with the OVA VHS tapes from Blockbuster back in the day. I used to have mom translate the manga from Chinese. The moment she found out there were English versions, she bought them so I could read them on my own. 😂
Also first slash pairings.
1993: Sailor Moon R
I watched this before the first season so I still think the Moonlight Knight is way cooler than the other dude
1994: Magic Knight Rayearth
My husband threw his entire dvd collection of this anime at me when he found out I never watched it.
1999: Excel Saga
Wow this show seems pretty tame in a lot of places these days but back then it was pretty shocking and wild lol. That last episode though that bumped up the rating to M though uhhhh
Runner up: Oruchuban Ebichu (18+ -ish...???)
Note: I watched when I was 18+
