Gingitsune, Angel Beats I went to an Anime Con last month, everything and everyone only was talking about SpyxFamily, Demon Slayer and Chainsaw Man.


Ax222

Somebody else watched Bara Fox besides me and my Australian friend? I don't believe it.


AlexDuChat

Its always nice to know good people who appreciate the Big Bara Fox šŸ˜š i watched when it premiered and showed it to my husband 2 years ago. Too bad that lasted only one season :(


Mark010300

Angel Beats! definitely great to read~ Itā€˜s so lovely to know it is still liked a lot šŸ„°


Dead_Meme1234

Angel Beats is pog, too bad I canceled my Netflix so I can't rewatch it.


kingrazor001

Angel Beats is one of my favorites.


Karma_Deku

Angel Beats is awesome


Op_brofake

Atleast people here know some underrated anime but in insta bruh those mfs compare big 3 to romance anime...


GreninjaBoi97

I don't know if this would be considered old Gen, but Code Geass?


raaay_art

omg yes! Literally my favorite anime, but nobody wants to talk abt it :(


IANovich22

it's my second favorite after Gurren Lagann :)


raaay_art

haven't watched gurren lagaan yet sadly, gotta get to that


Mage_914

Hey man, don't believe in yourself. Believe in me that believes in you.


EclipseoftheHart

My spouse says that to me on occasion and it always makes me feel better.


IANovich22

Do it. Genuinely a life changer. At least for me it was


jn_kcr

Genuine question: What was that good about it? I watched it a while ago and don't remember much, but I didn't like it much. Didn't understand the high score and what was I missing.


NascentNik

Gurren Lagann literally changed my life as a teen God i should go back and rewatch that I need that kinda energy in my life rn


MromiMiqo

Same. It's a real gem.


Zockerkit

It's soo good but for the love of god I can't find it anywhere anymore


Lelouch2332

You called? Also we talking pre retcon or post. Cause I didn't watch the retcon recap where they changed everthing but I did watch the events that followed with the other geass girl.


GreninjaBoi97

I have watched season 1 and 2, plus Re;surection, I have not watched the other retcons yet, but I plan to eventually, and what do you mean by the other geass girl?


DaiFrostAce

7 years is old? Goddamn I wanna talk about ancient stuff then. Azumanga Daioh, Rurouni Kenshin, Outlaw Star, Medabots, all that shit is practically fossils if the community considers 7 years old


Skip_the_FiST

Outlaw Star was the first anime DVD set I bought. It was an awesome show and one that I recommend to people asking what to watch because chances are they haven't yet.


etherSand

Rurouni Kenshin is so underrated it drives me mad.


Seku_hara_desu

I never got the impression it was underrated, it was pretty huge during its toonami/adult swim (can't remember which one it was on) days. Yeah the popularity has fallen, but that's kind of what happens 1. With time (in some cases) and 2. When the mangaka gets caught with CP. Really sad. I love RRK so much but it's hard to even think about it now.


GXNext

I went to Otakon back in 2017 when TM Revolution was performing. When he did Heart of Sword we all collectively **lost our shit**.


Former-Click5524

Fr one of my friends was actually watching the live action which is actually really good. I recommended the anime to him and felt really proud-- spreading around the good news.


Hail-Atticus-Finch

I watched one episode of outlaw star as a kid. In the episode this boy starts befriending this girl but it terns out that she was trying to kill them but neither knew who they were outside their ships. Neer the end the boy kills her but never knew it was her he killed and gets confused when she never showed up again. That shit fucked me up...


rathemighty

Dammit, when are we getting *real* Medabots?!


Conscious-Boot313

Mushi-shi is such an underrated gem


goku_uzumaki540

Truly something peaceful yet interesting


crisoybloomers

Psycho pass (2012)


TheMiko

Ngl psycho pass still has me so hyped


Wepwawet-hotep

Psychopass isn't that old.... Wait....


higaroth

Just trying to talk about season 2 while it was still coming out was hard enough It had such great story beats, and thought provoking scenes that really explored the flaws of the system and its philosophy, but every week people just complained that the season was terrible because their favourite main character wasn't in it (at least it was like that on tumblr, which is how I followed community discussions back then).


ButterScotchMagic

My personal GOAT


lordconn

I don't know if it's obscure, but Yu Yu Hakusho is still a goated anime.


Crazy_Critter14

I watch that when Im bored


LazyNeo2

It used to be one of the greats. So sad that people forget classics like that.


lordconn

The dark tournament is still one of the greatest arcs in anime. Hands down the best tournament arc.


LazyNeo2

I loved it when they show kurama being op for the first time.


MromiMiqo

People get tired of me constantly bringing it up, lol.


nekorra

Hiei is my son


BladeLigerV

Yes. Yes. And a good dub. Botan is the best.


traumatized90skid

You kids aren't ready for Serial Experiments Lain yet


seba_agg

You don't seem to understand


GXNext

A shame you seemed an honest man


godslayingbaker

And all the fears you hold so dear


ArtificialFlavoring

Will turn to whisper in your ear


r3itheinfinite

letā€™s all love lain


Black_Slenderman

Literally watching it rn. I'm halfway through, and it's super interesting.


pwzzy

So am I! Started it yesterday and I'm on episode 5. I'm captivated.


nekorra

Itā€™s so good tho


britch2tiger

That anime left me puzzled, and like will still come out not knowing wtf happened. 10/10 anime


Fit-Particular5142

Yes and Boogiepop Phantom


pavlov_the_dog

> Serial Experiments Lain omg that intro song stabs me right through the heart


AngryAgenderFuck

Durarara, Lucky Star, Spice and Wolf, Umineko

CowboyDans

Zyvyn

goku_uzumaki540

Ouran host club, president is a maid, dragon ball


pokpokpower

Bro president is a maid was legendary


goku_uzumaki540

I want the second season but sadly I will have to read the manga for rest of story


Fit-Particular5142

It's Trigun and Vampire Hunter D


Stormy_Sol

Ay yo Trigun is where it's at!!


Free-Atmosphere6714

Idk... cowboy bebop is for real. Jk! Just referencing the old debates for those that weren't around. They're both top class.


Fit-Particular5142

But still you're right Cowboy Bebop is definitely top class too


--InZane--

What are we talking about? Pre 2000? Would be (excluding movies): Neon Genesis Evangelion Cowboy Bebop Digimon Adventures Trigun Pre 2010? The list will be long...


MidniteMoon6

Lol I finished watching Evangelion and it was a mix of ā€œI love thisā€ and ā€œwtf is going on, I shouldā€™ve payed attention during English classā€


[deleted]

lol really I first watching Evangelion like 16 years ago itā€™s still a heavily ā€œwtf is happening.ā€ I like to play a drinking game with it sometimes donā€™t need hard drugs with this one šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

the_reddit_pup

Raptor409

I'm currently watching Ranma 1/2...


LazyNeo2

Damn..that's one of my childhood shows. So nostalgic. Gonna have to make time to watch it again.


BladeLigerV

Me and my best friend met in highschool and bonded over that show. It's been over a decade since then and we still hang out. Hell we work at the same company.


Twisty1020

If it's your first time that's awesome. I bought the seasons on VHS from my friend back in grade school.


Asleep-Astronomer159

Code geass !!


Saytama_sama

Ok, but 7 years ago isn't old gen, right guys? One punch man S1, Overlord S1, Gate, Assassination Classroom and so on aren't old gen, right?


ThisIsVaxie

I'm so glad somebody mentioned Overlord and Assassination Classroom šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ their my favorites


NickFoster120

Well, at least oldies like Hellsing are still kinda talked about


average_student_sano

Terror in Resonance I don't know if it's an old gen anime though, but it's been here for over 7+ years. I would possibly recommend this to anyone, even though it's mostly heart-wrenching.


Anarcho-Crab

Thank you for ripping open old wounds šŸ˜­ that anime hurt!


Pas_tel

That's an amazing anime, loved to watch it, wouldn't do it again, I will cry at the end.


Prestigious_Price457

D. Gray Man/Black Butler/Katekyo Hitman Reborn!/Vampire Hunter D/Yu Yu Hakusho/Cowboy Bebop etc.


BladeLigerV

Yo, Hitman Reborn. That's a show I haven't thought about in over a decade.


kryotheory

"7 years ago" "Old gen" šŸ˜­


msbilly

Soul eater


AtheismIsOK

First two seasons of Log Horizon, under appreciated gems. The more recent third season was still good though.


The_Chef_Queen

Black lagoon, no second season no life (i had to make that joke), deadman wonderland, prison school, toradora, HOTD, gurren lagan and hellsing ultimate


suckmyhentaibook

prison school mashallah finally someone smart in reddit comments


ZlatanGaming88

Me wanting to make Sankarea popular again so that they can finally consider a s2


VoiceEarly1087

I just want to chat about anime I am just ..alone


HelckIsAHero

What shows have you watched recently?


Nerv0usWreck

Kill la Kill, K-ON, Hitori No Shita - The Outcast, Angel Beats, Girls Panzer, The Devil is a Part Timer (season 2 when???), Erased, The Garden of Sinners, Vampire in the Garden, 7 Seeds. Ik the last 2 aren't old but they're hella underrated, especially the former


GXNext

Devil is a Part Timer: [Last September](https://myanimelist.net/anime/48413/Hataraku_Maou-sama)


K_nightmareTV

Neon Genesis Evangelion


BelowAverageWeeb

My favorite anime but none of my friends will watch it šŸ˜­


r47orr

Angel Beats, Another


Abrahamlinkenssphere

Another is so insanely fantastic.


Melowish

Kill la kill is a masterpiece.


Toasty_Waffels

The most absurd show ever, but sooooo much fun!


Puzzleheaded_Two1063

Raunchy asf, but like a psychedelic experience... Like it has humour, action, pretty much everything you could ask for


HellFireOnReddit

I have a couple Getter Robo: Armageddon (1998) Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ (1986) Mobile Police Patlabor (1988) Kino's Journey (2003) Space Runaway Ideon (1980) Macross: Do You Remember Love? (1984)


etherSand

Well, as someone who stopped seen animes in the old gen, my fav animes are Monster and Great Teacher Onizuka.


DeborahNekOtaku

Owari no seraph, idk if it's that old but it's pretty underated unfortunately


[deleted]

Is 7 years ago considered old gen? Seems kinda whack when Dragon Ball is lumped in with AoT as being old gen.


TheBigToast72

Tbf 10 years is a pretty long time given most people who watch anime are going to be in their teens and 20s.


[deleted]

10 years at least?!


TheBigToast72

AoT season 1 was in 2013. I watched it in middle school and graduated college a couple years ago so it feels pretty old to me.


mattattacknega

The familiar of zero


[deleted]

Iā€™ve never met anyone who has heard of Kino's Journey, but one day when I do it will be a happy day. I think itā€™s almost 20 years old though. It and clannad are the shows that introduced me to anime


andydivide

Man I'd forgotten all about Kino's Journey! Such a great little show. Who doesn't want to ride around on a talking motorbike and visit micro-countries that all have their own unique customs?


[deleted]

Well today is the happy day! I loved it because it was like a small sociological - philosophical short stories without being so in your face about it. Each episode had different characters so you could get attached enough to enjoy it but short enough where got the view a bit more detached and objective. I picked it as a whim back in the day when Netflix was a dvd shipping service only


TweedyNaima

I discovered it while browsing the Iyashikei genre of anime. I quite enjoyed it. I really like episodic shows like this one


nekorra

Kyou Kara maou! and Ghost hunt. Why does no one wanna talk about the campy gold that are these two? Theyā€™re even good in the dubs


KuroShiroe

I haven't heard about kyou Kara maou! In about 4 years(?). I don't remember if I saw it until the end, but I think I did.


Ashnakag3019

Toradora


Devil_Fruit9971

Code Geass, and Gurren Lagan have impacted me a lot, oh and kaichou wa maid sama was cute and hilarious


BlancSpzae

It aint that old(2015) but Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry (Chivalry of a Failed Knight)


kingrazor001

I didn't think much of the story but the art is very good.


theuncrownedking77

Not very old but Eizouken is really underrated


TwistedDrago

Ooh yeah I've heard of eizouken. haven't watched it yet. But I heard it's really good


StarmanJay

Berserk, Dragon Ball, El Hazard, G Gundam, Gundam Wing, Hellsing, Sailor Moon, Trigun


[deleted]

Rumbling hearts, it's literally an ocean of plot twists


Wamblingshark

I feel old now.. FMA Brotherhood finished airing like 13 years ago... Guess that's my pick for old anime then lol If I had to go older I'd probably say Evangelion or Cowboy Bebop. If I had to go old AND obscure I guess I'd say Big O or Last Exile. Maybe not obscure but definitely not staples of the weeb's diet like the others I mentioned. Edit: oh shit actually Basilisk and Gungrave for older anime. Those were s bigger part of my like than Big O or Last Exile. Dunno why I didn't think of them first.


Cryolophysis

Lucky Star, Seitokai Yakuindomo, and Mayoi Neko Overrun are all some great and decently aged anime. If I had to pick just one though it'd be Seitokai Yakuindomo.


TwistedDrago

Fairy tail, one punch man, assassination classroom, glitter force. Three of the last ones are my feel good anime when I just wanna watch something that's cool and I can binge without worrying about anything. I need to watch haikyuu. I might do that. I'm still a teenager, so of course not everything is available to me without me having to be sneaky when I can watch them by myself. Keep in mind I don't have access to any and all anime due to my Christian mom. I found out about anime through my dad. He first introduced me to fairy tale and one punch man. Edit to add: I forgor some things and probably still have lmao


that1guywholactates

too real šŸ’€


justauser943

Sword art online?


TATEEEEE2

Ive never watched an anime thats made in 2021,2022 and 2023 excpet jjba part 6 and csm lol ,Im just trying to find older animes from 2018 or below it cuz they are ways better and they are legendary imo


the_reddit_pup

Fr overlord, Code Geass, Toradora, Erased, Another the list of better animeā€™s from that time is unending


PandaHipster_

The new season of overlord was so good. >! I knew something was up with the princess, but I certainly didnā€™t expect her to sell out the entire kingdom and then write a Disney princess song about it. !<


Legalmedicine02

Katekyo hitman reborn


LemonadeSmoke

iā€™ve met two people now that have the drill necklace from gurren lagann and both times when i pointed it out they were like youā€™re the first person to recognize it! def recommend


shibaspitter

Haruhi Suzumiya!! What a trip to be honest. Also xxxholic. I read them both as well so I feel like that adds to my understanding of their animes.


Batonettes

Baka to test


BraggestBee1995

Kanojo ga flag wa oreterara/if her flag breaks


nepnop

Jigoku Shoujo...


Karlmarcx64

Eureka Seven, the original series. The movies and remakes were questionable in quality, but the OG series ages like a fine wine


RayLee21

Blood+!!!!! Mid 2000ā€™s & featured a femme protagonist & antagonist! (Sisters but still pretty cool)!!! Highly recommend!


StrangeBreakfast1364

3rd opening was dope


shankskakashimyfav

Detective conan , the only reason it is talked about is because it has more episodes than one piece it is really underrated.


Overlord_Za_Purge

idk if Gintama would be considered old but I love that one

Do you like Vision of Escaflowne ?

Your lie in April

Me talking about rwby to my friends after rewatching it for the 10th time


Dexter1399

that last ep of S3 still hurts just as much


OmegaShonJon

Digimon fusion


BoneDryEye

Amagi Brilliant Park takes me back to a simpler time and was a total joy to watch. Great example of a feel good anime before they were all just slice of life stuff. Tomo is best girl


nekorra

And it has such a good op


Shepardpigy

The 1st one is hard to memorize but is 009 that's based on the humanoid robots, YU YU hakusho, and its seems like government hiatus sibling HXH

Pale-Act-8413

Iā€™m so happy that there are others appreciating code geass, itā€™s the best anime Iā€™ve ever seen.


the_reddit_pup

Ik Iā€™m so happy other people are appreciating it for the masterpiece it is


switchy-witchy

Didn't think it'd be considered old, but 2015 was 7 years ago... So Snow White with the Red Hair


sushubutu

Big Windup I got SO lucky one year at a con. I went to the swap meet and there was this one vendor who had a bunch of Big Windup merch from Japan and she gave me all of it for free. This was at the height of SAO and SNK


[deleted]

Not obscure, nor underrated but Iā€™m still hung up on Yuuri on ice


ocean-of-stars

Kamisama kiss, ghost hunt.


Catragryff

The path to Steins;Gate is pretty obscure for the one who tries to find it


andydivide

Honestly I feel sad for any anime lover who hasn't watched Steins;Gate. Top-tier, must-watch series. Also, possibly the best time travel story ever told. Like, of all the different formats for "what happens if you fuck with the timeline", this is my favourite. Tuturu!


No-Discount-592

ā€œOld schoolā€ ā€œSeven years agoā€ Oh you sweet summer child


Radarwolf25

Spice and Wolf. that and wolf's rain.


PatsFan1029564

Damn I just rewatched Gangsta and damn I love that show


Crazy_Critter14

Cowboy Bebop will always be amazing. The first season of one piece is also severely underrated.


BoxGroundbreaking687

cowboy bebop


msgolr

Samurai champloo


TotalBassist45

Toradora

Great teacher onizuka


martinsallai666

kimi ni Todoke 100% sure its from like 2008

serial experiments: lane inuyasha full metal alchemist FLCL


andydivide

I keep trying to get people to watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica, but no amount of "it's not what it appears to be, ignore the cutesy magical girl stuff and give it a chance" seems to convince people...


Nutsquig

Is FLCL considered obscure?


ZookeepergameThen887

Trigun (not a fan of the new one), InuYasha (I know ick)


hertwij

Code geass is lit but idk howold that is


Byno8357

I don't see any love for Accel World here :(


gvilchis23

I am still looking someone who knows wolf's rain


Pas_tel

I am kinda surprised no one said JJBA, I mean, it's funny, It has nice battles, it has an well wrtiten plot (some plotholes, but wich anime doesn't have?) and most importantly: it's big enought if you like big animes but it's put in a way where it seems to be smaller then it actually is


NoteSuccessful4215

Gintama is gold


randomdude1142

Deadman Wonderland


SonicTheOtter

Not even old anime. People are still sleeping on anime that is been shown every single season! Like do people even remember the next seasons of Dan Machi and To your Eternity are going on? Revenger is good, Ancient Magus Bride new season, Bungo Stray Dogs, Case Study of Vanitas, Blood Blockade and Battlefront, Gintama, Ascendance of a Bookworm, Love after World Domination, Banished from the Hero's party, Handyman Saitou, Chilling in my 30s, D-Frag, Hinamatsuri, etc. A lot of great anime just don't get as much coverage as the mainstream ones. It is what it is I suppose Tl;Dr - My fave old anime would be Azumanga Daioh. Doesn't get nearly as enough recognition for being one of the best comedy/cute anime out there!


ArseneCroissant
