How often do you watch anime that is at least 20 years old vs newer stuff?

newer shows make me wanna puke, especially those that center around a gimmick, and it seems like it's the majority nowadays

Anime from the 2000s has always been my main jam, but I've enjoyed my occasional forays into stuff from the 80s & 90s too

I used to follow currently-airing anime around the late 2000s - early 2010s, but I got increasingly turned off by it until I stopped altogether. These days I pretty much only watch anime during Heyuri Cytube sweat2

I actually only watched a few anime from the 1980s. I'm planning on watching more, but I never seem to have enough time cry

What I did watch:
– Everything from Ghibli
– Akira
– Ranma
– Angel Egg
– Urusei Yatsura (only the TV Series)
...oh, and some episodes of Dragonball back in my childhood

I mostly watch sci-fi from the 80s and 90s although I have seen other types of anime from newer times. I'm currently watching Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu (Legend of the Galactic Heroes) and it's really good. I love military drama, and the main characters are all thought out and believable. It's not easy to make a show with so many characters and have most of them be memorable. I consider the 80s-90s to be the height of anime. But there are still shows being made that are good. I just think the pacing and writing of most of the shows made back are of a higher quality as compared to the 00s-10s. The look of cel animation and the style of sci-fi aesthetics back then also personally appeals to me. Not to say there weren't shitty, low-quality anime being produced back then, I just think the good shows made are generally superior to the good shows being made now.

1999-2009 was the height of moe. I hope someday there will be a second cumming of moe.

I want to get into more of the older series, especially the famous ones, to establish a basis of reference. But so much of it is derivative or mecha/robot shit. I can't get into it at all. Chicks might dig giant robots but I don't

I can't trust anyone who doesn't like mecha. They are never above suspicion. ( ´ω`)
