[McD] James Posted September 25, 2019 Does Macross: 'Do You Remember Love' count? 1 Share this post Link to post
PsychoGoatee Posted September 25, 2019 I was gonna say Macross, the movie is damn good, and the full series is even better! Man that's a manly show. A fighter pilot, Hikaru, get this... he's in a love triangle with two dames! One of them is a pop star with damn good tunes, such as "My Boyfriend is a pilot!". Oddly enough I watched Perfect Blue the other day, had always been meaning to watch it. I found it kind of so-so, I love David Lynch and surreal stuff, and I dig some of Kon's other stuff, but this movie ran out of steam halfway through for me. Also, being that I myself am in my 30s, these days I'd prefer an idol anime about say a 30 year old pop star. You've gotta be worldly to write damn good tunes, you know. At least 25. 2 Share this post Link to post
FractalBeast Posted September 27, 2019 It's never going to happen because, 1) Japanese culture 2) no anime company will bite the hand that feeds; but I'd love a realistic idol anime. The work pressure, the absolutely insane fans (hope you like getting daily death threats from fans when some tabloid implies you have a relationship), the agencies that control your life... 0 Share this post Link to post
