Think Red Dawn made by the creator of Gundam.

Movie Trailer: http://youtu.be/w4nybAZV5Js

yeah, good old days when anime weren't made with cheap 3d animations.

80s dystopian cyberpunk was the best. Its hard to watch current stuff because of it.

Might be Ozuma/OZMA. Sand ships, but it's on Earth after the much of atmosphere gets blown away by severe solar winds of something.

Was it made by the same studio that made Space Cowboy?

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

Nope. The Studio that made this didn't have many big name titles attached and went out of business in 2002.

One of the first anime films I watched, even before Akira. Still have it on VHS. Nothing to play it on mind you....

I miss highly detailed, hand drawn animation.

You are correct. This is gorgeous.

I feel as if animators tried more back then as they wanted to make a name for themselves.

80's Animes are best Animes.

Really. I'm not a big fan of anime, but the old art styles are my favorites. Probably nostalgia, I can't say.

10 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

Amen. I loved that the majority of good showa were in OVA format. No need for 13 episode seasons for everything like nowadays.

Eva is actually 90's, but the artstyle is definitely reminiscent of the 80's http://imgur.c">/H185t3k">http://imgur.com/H185t3k /zZKq65d

Is it as good as OP claims? Looks promising.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I thoroughly enjoyed this anime! It's 80s as hell though. Lots of music on the soundtrack sounds from that era, so it's a bit dated.

Not that great imo.
