They knew aesthetics back then.. i swear maybe they didnt have high end effects and jjk fighting scenes BUT they knew how to make you feel warm man
Warm is such a good word to describe this man. It feels just cozy, so captivating for some reason.
I would agree, but i cant stop thinking that this is just because we watched these series when we were young. So basically we prefer this old style and have this "warm" feeling because of nostalgia. Maybe in 15 years the New gen gonna have the same Feelings for JJK or Demon Slayer Fights.
@@user-cp6it9pt4r Maybe,but I'm going to be honest I have barely watched any 90s animes as a kid but I just really prefer the aesthetics of the animes from the 90s or earlier compare to alot of the modern animes. Now obviously even in the modern times there are animes with really good asthetics like Black Lagoon or samurai champloo and mostly any Gibli movies in general,but alot of those I think try to capture the asthetics of the 90s which is why I think they look so beautiful
This isn't just to say that animes only look beautiful when trying to look like they're from the 90s,like for example I love the vibe of the wano arc in one piece or alot of the animes done by Ufotable, movies like Your name also have some very nice visuals.
In simple words I don't think it's just because of nostalgia now that obviously plays a major part but it's just that the 90s asthetics look very nice
@@blackcatpirates8134 I agree with you. I really love the 90s aesthetics and it's definitely not out of nostalgia. The colouring is more pleasant to my eyes, even if many people don't like it that much.. 🙃
@@katara1610 Yeah agreed
Yo! Thank you for reacting my video man! Honestly it feels really weird cause I was watching your reactions I believe before I started my channel or at least like while I was really early on lol so means a lot to see my video being one of your reactions!
While I love how things like Your Name, Demon Slayer, etc. look, I can fully agree that I miss the style and charm of 90s anime like Trigun, Berserk, and Ghost in the Shell.
It'd be interesting if a studio decided to start making anime back in the similar style and tone of the old 90s anime, while taking some of the modern advances as well.
Ranking of kings nailed it for us 2000s kids. It gives off the vibe of the old folktale we used to watch on tv but with modern quality and polishing.
Megalo Box looks something like that.
Its damn expensive now right? Because they drawn it frame by frame. Time consuming as well. Correct me if im wrong. 😅
correct, it was all hand drawn on cel sheets instead of digital which is why no modern anime can fully capture the raw emotion and grit that these clips barely capture from 90s media. the EVA movies are my go to example for how insanely fluid something like an explosion can be animated. it also heavily depends on the animator themselves and what skills they possess to bring that incredible sakuga to life@@nwaarmalek6242
90s and late 80s anime was just peak. Ghost in the shell 1995? Outlaw star? Trigun? Slayers? Card captor sakura? Just peak hand drawn goodness with an eye for quality
Did not expect to see Escaflowne in this but I am really glad it is brought up. That series and how it looks is what made me love anime.
Yes!
Man... I should finish watching Cowboy Beebop, Black Lagoon, Trigun, and Yuyu Hakusho.
Megalo Box captures the feel of 90s anime. Recommend it to any Vinland Saga fans for both season 1 and 2. Megalo Box Nomad went under the radar. Highly underrated.
yes yes yes
Ashita no joe s2 is better than most anime today. 80s anime
The animated version of Ghost in the Shell, released in 1995, is a real classic. If you haven't seen it, I urge you to watch it.
I think it's easier to understand if you compare Sailor Moon's transformation scene.
I think the accuracy of the drawings in the 90's version is amazing even today. I've heard that he used the movements of figure skaters and dancers as reference when drawing.
By the way, the transformation scenes of Uranus and Neptune were directed by Hideaki Anno, the director of Evangelion.
That's pretty dope
internet pitstop is the best! waiting for his other videos!
Yeah. His dark souls and Bersek videos are topnotch
@@youcantkilltwice5596 I was very close to recommending him the one about anime backgrounds...
I just love the vibe and the aesthetic of the 90s animes. Ofc I like the new animes more in genreal but the vibe is just it
yooooo I love internet pitstop! I know it's HELLA long but his history of anime backgrounds video is GOATED. Definitely consider giving it a watch here and there if you want to absolutely splooge at old art for 4 hours
As someone that grew up with this, literally (80's kid here, started watching anime in the early 90's), you cant really know what it was like to live with this aesthetic. It was all we had for sure, so there wasn't anything to really compare it to. We just knew we loved it. To pop in a VHS tape into a VHS player, using analogue AV-cables plugged into an analogue CRT TV screen, the glow of the phosphors are etched into my memories in ways the youth today just wont understand.
Granted I have no idea what its like to be a young anime fan today, growing up with digital animation, and to look backwards at the time before. I mean even if I looked back at anime before my time, it wasn't anything different because it was still all cell animation photographed to film one frame at a time. Anime in the 90's hit the peak of what traditional analogue animation could achieve with those techniques, and we just never had it so good!
Also my generation had the benefit of seeing the transition of anime from the analogue to digital. Those were some rough years for sure, but there were some amazing strides taken, I'd admit.
Was 90's anime really BETTER than today's anime? Well, that is very subjective. The only real way to tell is to see some of the recent anime remakes that they've been doing, such as Rurouni Kenshin and Urusei Yatsura. When you have a 1:1 comparison, there's definitely a different feel to each aesthetic, so it comes down to preference. While I prefer the old 90's style, I do appreciate some re-makes because lets face it, anime back then despite their looks, they could really be a drag in terms of pacing. Thats one area that modern anime really improved upon. So if it opens the doors to new anime fans to see these older stories brought to them in a new visual style and concise telling, thats something to celebrate. IF done right, that is.
I love Internet Pitstop!! Happy to see you reacting to his awesomeness
Samurai champloo aesthetic is NUMBER 1 of every anime, you litteraly wanna live the peaceful moment with them.
11:10
NEON GENESIS EVANGELION, is the example of how to make something superdark, without almost needing to use gore
I think you would love Wolf's Rain (2003). Amazing music, gorgeous art style, and fantastic dub if that's your thing. Same group as Escaflowne, and many of the Cowboy Bebop crew.
Nick you should watch Black Lagoon bro, won't dissapoint
Name a fight with "Knives" in Trigun Stampede...
because in the ole school Trigun he got only 1 fight as sick as it was... so I would love to see more of them given how badass he is as a character.
90s artstyle and background + modern animation, peak
90s anime just looks more mature and natural to me. Peak of sakuga and animation. That's why ghibli will always be remembered and why when they tried to use AI it wasn't received well. Nowadays people just watch flashy graphics and effects and they'll say its the best animated shit ever lmao
Love internet pitstop's content, awesome to see Nick reacting to him
Nicholas Light and InternetPitstop! 90s anime was PEAK. Made me fall in love with anime.
I love this youtuber!! So glad you watched this video. Watch more of his vids please!!!!!!
At 1:21 mark, I'm sure that's Tenshi no Tamago, with character designs from Yoshitaka Amano, character and enemy designer for the early Final Fantasy games. He also has a colaboration on a comic for Sandman. His art is gorgeous!
In the terms of aesthetic one of the most unique and beautiful anime is balladona of sadness, a movie from the 70s. Definitely one that everyone needs to check out at least once in their life
I agree, it is the clothes but also the details
Ever since I was a kid, I was in love with the visuals of slam dunk's first ending. Check it out it's beautiful
I beg of you to watch some of Studio Ghibli’s older movies, if not just a video about Studio Ghibli, they truly were and still are a pinnacle for 90s anime’s, my favorite being Princess Mononoke.
''Bastard!! Heavy metal dark fantasy'' has two seasons made last couple of years with the character design from the 80-90s manga and 90s OVAs. I liked it, but i don't know any other titles that did that.
90年代日本語ラップがBGMで使われてて、動画クリエイターの愛を感じた。
90s aesthetic tops everything
Also Nick, check out the Berserk Golden Age Arc, the animation there is actually great
the fact that 🇯🇵 love and cherish Anime way more than today can't be denied
I actually would love to see him watch megalo box. Like that shit made me feel nostalgic for those older times even with how recently it came out and the second season was a fucking incredible story
It’s not just anime but manga as well. It’s due to mangaka (most there’s still some like Murata and others drawing masterpieces) and anime studios essentially going all digital. Drawing digitally does change the aesthetic but is also less time consuming. This is extremely evident when it comes to backgrounds and detail both in anime and manga. To be fair there are those that have adapted such as the legend Araki (JoJo’s mangaka who has pioneered the aesthetic starting from the 80s violence and Fist of the North Star like characters to more fashion forward and model like character designs). In terms of the “generic” anime the older style is better although when new anime add more frames for more fluid movement it becomes fantastic as well just in a different way
He put Lupin in the video, this was so W, lupin is such a good series even first part
80-90's is where anime peaked style wise, not to say i dislike everything after because even nowadays there's styles i love, but they're usually the exception instead of the norm. Current anime fans and even the industry's perception is that everything needs to be super clean, hd, shiny, with a lot of effects to make it look cinematic and good like Demon slayer.
Art moves in cycles and I'm confident that to some extent that a studio or two will bring back the more traditional art styles back. But hand animating shows are very hard to consistently produce and not have your artists burn out. It's a lot of work for potentially little to no payoff depending on how well it's recieved.
The guy who made Anastasia and everything else he made.
That was god tier western animation, when disney still had people that opposed them.
internet pitstop is such a top tier yt channel
Yooo Internet Pitstop this guy is goated
3:15 Maan 90s anime with doomsday in the back, you can't get better than this
Slow frames anime like 90s anime is great because of the frames and the manga adapted to those frames so to make it good by focusing on small details to make them good but now we have bad small details in art. Look up spriggan gun reload animation to observe what happens when you focus small details over big details in art and animation.
Well this was a crossover I didn’t expect.
You need to watch the Original Trigun
Latest great animations I can figure out are: Redline, Vampire Hunter D: Blodlust.
The thing with anime too which wasn’t talked about here is music and while I enjoyed the Kenshin remake and is nearly identical to the source, that OST of o.g. Kenshin is one of the best ever and same with the opening and ending songs.
That’s why I fear remakes. Like how the hell are you replicating a Yu Yu Hakusho, Naruto, Cowboy Bebop with those amazing OSTs and openings and endings? That’s part of the nostalgia too
Internet Pitstop is such a great channel
You should check out an old anime movie called Wicked City. Its story is meh at best, but the aesthetic is premium. It's even used in the official music video for The Midnight's "Vampires," released only 7 years ago.
Since you have finished Code Geass on Patreon pls put a compilation video of your best moments on your main youtube channel. Many of us want to see your reaction, especially to the ending.
watch megalobox if you like the old art style. It is amazing
JoJo part 3 OVA was so cool looking for its time
Time to rewatch Treasure Planet
"They have better story today?" it's only because you've seen shows & movies from 2010's... watch-
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Patlabor 2
Jin Roh : Wolf Brigade
Devilman(even the Crybaby)
Memories : Magnetic Rose
Ghost in the Shell
Legends of the Galactic Heroes
Ashita No Joe
Angel's Egg
Samurai X
Ninja Scroll
Lupin III
Ima just go and watch trigun now..
Internet Pitstop LETSGOOO
The FFVII music in the background
Loved Record of Lodoss War
The newer digital anime style fits some anime depending the themes in their story. The new Rurouni Kenshin anime of 2023 art was not bad but the original anime is superior. Same goes for HxH, for example Kurapikas scenes are night and day different in terms of intensity.
The thing with anime too which wasn’t talked about here is music and while I enjoyed the Kenshin remake and is nearly identical to the source, that OST of o.g. Kenshin is one of the best ever and same with the opening and ending songs.

@@emssasukeisunderrated7946 Yes, if the same composer was on the remakes then it would be great. On the OST side that would be hard to replicate he 90's openings vs the opening of now, I'm sure its possible to et banger OPs that fit the anime still though.
@@eherden2169 Yea the problem with both is it being a 30 year difference and assuming the composer isn't alive, there's copyright laws and if they are, maybe they update the songs and improve on them but who knows. It would be extremely tough to replicate that 80-90s Japanese city pop, pop and rock sounds that fit. I agree
90s anime made me a super happy child. I thought it would only get even better, a child full of hope for the future. I was heavily let down, overall. A lot of modern anime have awesome style but very few are truly stylish.
One piece, Inuyasha, outlaw star, Trigun, FMA, Yu yu Hakusho, Cowboy bee bop, DBZ,Dragon ball, Akira, grave of the fireflies, Gundam wing, Deep blue, Ghost in the shell, Rurouni Kenshin, 009, Case Closed, Naruto, Bleach, Bobobobobobobo, Wolf's Rain, .hack// ALL GOOD STUFF
You gotta react to grceyard of the fireflies 😩
Laid back camping as some good stuff, also Friend clothing animation is peak.
Fav Dreamworks film has got to be The Prince of Egypt.
I would love to see Bleach, Attack On Titan, and One Peice done in 90's style Anime. I miss 90's Dragon Ball the original style. The way it looked back then was so awesome.
We get it Nick you're Edgy like the rest of us! 😄
If you haven't watched Ghost in the shell... bro. You need to watch it 1000%. The art is just... mesmerizing
Someone send this guy the Yutaka nakamura sakuga MAD compilations
Oh i remember watching this vid..
I really hope he watches and uploads the original Berserk anime!
cool now for hajime no ippo day 6
What about an anime with modern animations and 90's art style (and character design)? That would be dope! But maybe expensive.
kinda cute seeing nic saying uzumaki is new
Look I have no problems with today' Anime, I love it. But the level of creativity and thought process of 90's Anime is Top level to me. The grittiness and freedom of art 90's Anime was back then was so unapologetic. Even 80's Anime was more the same. I miss it so much.
If i were a billionaire, my dream project, that I would pay ANYTHING to make happen, would be an anime adaptation of Scott Westerfeld's Leviathan book series, but done using all 90's style traditionally hand drawn animation and detailed backgrounds.
You should react to Yu Yu Hakusho (dub of course). I 110% guarantee that you'll love it.
If you want a modern anime done deliberately in a 90s aesthetic, I think u should try Banana Fish.
I need aot final season part 3 episode 1 in the 90s style, that would look so dark
Cars is my favorite Pixar film.
og trigun reaction pls
Nick has to react to monster
Grave of the Fireflies
今の時代のPCで作られたアニメに慣れていると、昔のセル画のアニメは動きに物足りなさを感じるかもしれません。でも話は面白かったので、毎週楽しみでした。小さい頃女の子は、魔女とかのアニメの魔法のステッキやコンパクトなどを。男の子は、特撮のロボットや変身ベルトなど。アニメや特撮関連の物を、クリスマスプレゼントでもらう事が多かったです。これより前のアニメって、アニメ用の歌が使われている気がします。この年代から、歌手が自分の曲をアニメに提供している印象ですね。個人的には、『まんが日本昔ばなし』をオススメしたいです。日本人の昔の生活が分かるし、神道や教訓など精神的な発育を促す教科書でもありますよ。今もUA-camにあるので、たまに暇な時に見ても大人が考えさせられる話が多いです。
INITAL D GOAT anime
Imagine seeing the fight scene in TYBW, Yhwach vs Oldman Yama in 90s aesthethic👌😙
First gundam is good anime I recommend.
COWBOY BEBOP is epic. The loneliness of it is so ROMANTIC.
I highly recommended watching Outlaw Star if you haven't seen it. TOP TIER Anime in my opinion.
I'd love to see a Yu Yu Hakusho reaction after the disappointment of the netflix show
You gotta watch Devilamn the birth eng dub
Anime video with MF DOOM music I am in 🔥🔥
We gotta get this guy to react to treasure planet!
You have to watch Star wars Tie fighter
Nick, you need to react to old Hunter x Hunter. When Kurapika reveals his eyes,... or when that Phantom Troupe boss fights folks from Zoldyck family,... better still when Gon is fighting that ninja dude during the hunter's exam... Wow. It was like they went on the animation peak and went: "this isn't high enough, let's make the peak peaker".
Video 56 of trying to get Nicholas to react to an amazing Japanese band, called Mucc. Truly underated .🙌
As much as I like the look and feel of some older shows, the problem I have with this video is that the original maker is looping the same 5-6 awsome shows\movies and they are supposed to represent the 90's but they don't. I can take 5-6 mind blowing shows from any era and talk about how amazing that era was while 95% of what we got during that era was pure shit. just look at anichart and see how many new shows come out every season and then multiplie it by 4 and you'll understand that in an era in which every year has 200 new shows on avarage to take the same 5-6 anime and make them "the poster shows" for that era is like giving you an amazing demo to a crappy game, it may look real nice for the 15 minutes you were allowed to play but when you play "the full version" you see that everything but those 15 minutes was shit.
bro, watch treasure planet! phenomenal movie
Fantastic Planet was a French made animation, I want whatever they were smoking
City Hunter would be a wise choice. Believe me and enjoy~!
Gyutaro with that hashira from demon slayer would it be good in 90's style?
Cowboy bebop is the best 90s anime for me..
Anyone with a good taste would definitely like it
