Sumdumgai Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I never got around to watching Maps when it came out here. Never was on my priority list. Ah the 80's and some of their wacky one-shots or short series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noriko Takaya Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I've seen the original MAPS as shown above. I prefer the remake a lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoryHolmes Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I keep looking for the original AD Police OVA series. Great flicks, them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Effect Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Maybe it's just me but I really prefer the character designs of the 80s as shown in those images then anything being done today or in the last few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I keep looking for the original AD Police OVA series. Great flicks, them. Pretty sure it's still available form AnimEigo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danth Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 (edited) I agree with Effect. I only care for eighties and early nineties anime, mainly because I like the designs a whole lot. Dude, I never knew there was an 80's maps. Thanks for the great cover art, Area88! You got any translations of the titles?

ly000001 Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Could this be the OAV pictured before maps? That seems to be right. This is the one between "High School Agent" and "Greed". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still enjoy the original FIght! Iczer-1 OVAs! Those are classic created by Toshihiro Hirano and use his incredible character designs too! The music is dated but the OVAs successfully weave elements of horror, sci-fi, and mecha too. There's a great interview with him and he states he achieved everything he set out to do with this series. There is a strong emphasis on style, character designs, mecha, explosions, horror, and fighting. These were some of the popular quallities that were popular in 80s and 90s OVAs. If you like Hirano's character designs check out the Dangaioh OVAs! Oh and the Iczer-1 translated artbook published by NipponPress(?) is awesome too. Definitely one of my favorites considering the considerable detailed cel images and close ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandman Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Yeah i agree. I love Iczer-1 music, Dangioh too. IMO modern anime doesn't have as great music tracks barring a few exceptions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrinG Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 If you like those, Area 88 part III has some killer tracks. When they fly through the canyon, and when the Harriers make their surprise attack . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To us the music is timeless but, I was referring to newer viewers might consider Iczer-1 dated. Personally love Iczer-1, Iczer3 and Dangaioh! @ Chas: Consider picking up this Iczer-1 artbook. It is in lush full color and also has gorgeous close ups of the high detailed cels showcasing Toshihiro Hirano badass character designs and Masami Obari mecha designs too!!

Fortress_Maximus Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Do you remember... RIKI-OH! There were two OVAs. The first was RIKI-OH: The Wall of Hell (1989). The second one was titled RIKI-OH: Child of Destruction (1990). Both were based on the great manga by Masahiko Takajo and Tetsuya Saruwatari serialized in 1988 to 1990.Anyone else watch these OVAs and manga series?

Noyhauser Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 So I think one of the cool things that has changed in the eight years since Area 88 created this thread is that many, if not most of these videos are now available on youtube. Last night I watched and really enjoyed Urban Square... which was awesome. It had the classic hard boiled detective.... AWESOME. I see its like 50/50 on which OAVs are on the tube, but its still far more than before. Maybe we should post them here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
