That explosion also speeded the translation industry and created Partnerships that allows poo poo like MHA to simulcast. The dearth of material beforehand really made it so that fans were at the whims of import publishers for works. It's why most people remember stuff like Voltage Fighter Gowcaiser before they had seen Evangelion. Lol.

Arc Hammer posted:I could go with MD Geist because it's a so bad it's good kind of super edge but Genocyber is just depressing and the child murder and molestation stuff is gross.  Arc Hammer posted:I wouldn't mind a redubbed version of Robot Carnival that overhauled the script for the story about the two mechas fighting because they couldn't understand each other's language. The old dub is kinda yikes with the Asian voices. There's a host of formative anime that maybe will get a BluRay treatment someday but won't get a 4k rework that really bums me out.

I liked Tenchi Muyo In Love quite a bit when it played on SciFi. Never saw the second.

Part of what makes Tenchi TV unique is that is basically reboots itself over the course of the seasons. So maybe the first run is Ryoko being an ancient Demon that was sealed away and then released by Tenchi, while the next one she may be an intergalactic pirate that gets stuck on earth and wants to steal Tenchi away from his prearranged marriage from Ayeka. In a world before the internet was massive and you were able to glean all the information you wanted at a glance, the disequilibrium was very fun!

Yu Yu Hakusho had a decent dub as well. I showed someone the Fist of the North Star dub and their face was just shocked Pikachu over the wuality of the VA work. And I was like "yo, this is pretty good co sodering the state of things back then". It's really hard to believe that the VA industry wasn't there for anime dubs.

They worked on poo poo like YuGiOh. Of course their work has a sort of nostalgic cache. Streamline gave me Leonardo Turtle Kanaeda, after all.

Tachikomas we're good and added some fun into the series and also got good characterization when for example one sacrificed itself. I think maybe the cel shading was the only negative, aside from the cutesy voices?

It's just insane that Latin America got much better material to work with. They really were like "The US? No one does dubs there who cares"

Sakurazuka posted:Streamline was very much in to trying to westernise anime as much as possible, it was founded by Carl Macek lol We are very much spoiled by the speed at which we get subs but also an increase in overall knowledge and professionalism in the translation industry, and the concept of respecting the original work by giving it a faithful adaptation. But I think that's kind of built on the back of shoddy/loose dubs creating a sense that the originals were some kind of hidden truth, or just plain different enough to be their own thing. Even something as relatively benign as "don't re-record the OP with power metal" was kind of a major cultural shift with anime brought over to the states.

They also had Casshern: Robot Hunter, one of the Tank Police OVAs, IRIA 1 & 2, maybe one of the Lodoss Wars, something Mars, GalForce:Eternal. I think I'm missing one or two. It Gets kind of muddy since they had two or three Summer Anime blocks (one with Apollo Smile, your Live Action Anime Girl!). So I forget if those offerings filtered down into their Saturday block. That would have been stuff like Tenchi Muyo: The Movie, FATAL FURY 1&2, the Galaxy Expresses, Beautiful Dreamer.

There's such a flood of contemporaries now that it's kind of just there. I also feel like there's a bit of embarrassment looking back at it.

Heavy Metal posted:Max Headroom is an actor wearing make-up stuff, he's technically not AI either! We're cleaning up with our caveats and such. He is cool I watched his Letterman appearance recently. I see what you're saying though, that was a good time for cyberpunk stories. TenementFunster posted:max headroom was just a guy in a mask and hello kitty is megumi hayashibara Yeah I guess the HK thing is a reach. She's a popular fictional character that's pretty ubiquitous. I was just jumping to thoughts about fandoms for fictional entities.
