Re: "Classic" Anime

[type_wild]

I re-watched Cardcaptor Sakura a couple of years ago and good god, that is one brilliant children's cartoon. It's consistently entertaining, and even though it's three times the length of the manga, it never feels like filler (it also does away with the manga's worst flaws and adds the best character of them all). The production values were above average as I recall them, and the whole thing was just such a joy.

Digimon Tamers is nearing 20 so it probably also qualifies as "classic" by now.

I've got a lot of nostalgia for the first Pokémon series, but I haven't watched any of that in ages and I don't think I'd be able to judge it objectively if I did. On the same note, I adore Detective Conan but I mostly read the manga.

my brother got his kids into Detective Conan and they LOVE it. the oldest is nine and the youngest (who watched it) is three. (he has six kids, 9-1 with another due in October)

I'd say something about a fandom in the making if I didn't already know that this is one of the SUPER POPULAR ones that somehow is invisible on the internet. There's clearly a reason why it's celebrating its 25th anniversary *g*

Detective Conan! I have to admit, I still watch the specials/movies when they come out. Especially the Kaito crossovers.

To be fair, I also still watch the Lupin movies as well.

Re: "Classic" Anime

Ooooh, I should be checking out the movies, since Kaito is... okay, one of several highlights in DC, but the movies are original content and I've got the impression that he's in them a lot.

The only Lupin I've watched is the Miyazaki film and the Fujiko Mine anime, and I'm not sure the latter really counts.

He's in a few. The first one I watched was 'Magician of the Silver Sky', which was the 7th or 8th movie I think, and it was great for Kaito. Off the top of my head, 'Sunflowers of Inferno' is also good for him, and 'Lost Ship in the Sky'. I think the newest one features him as well, but I haven't seen that one yet.

Re: "Classic" Anime

Thank you for the numbers! The DC films always seem to make it pretty well in Japan, so I've always assumed they were good enough. But why deny it, knowing where to look for Kaito is a very good inventive for sitting down and watching them already.

Cardcaptor Sakura held up for me (mostly) the first time I revisited it, but the most recent time I tried, it was hard to stay interested. It very much did start to feel like filler after a while. I agree that it's better than the manga, but I think it could have benefited by being half as long or less. I also found much of the plot and most of the characters twee and shallow, which was a first. But maybe I've just gotten too far from the target age.

Re: "Classic" Anime

I'll freely admit that the length is part of the reason I haven't revusited it more, though I assume that is more about the genre and the way they did children's anime in the nineties (Marmalade Boy, in comparison). I might not be as generous as I was four yeats ago this time, for all I know, but I remebmer being honestly surprised at how GOOD it appeared when I was expecting to have to slog through it. The border between "twee" and "cute" is subjective, though I can readily understand that CCS would walk it more dangerously than most.
