As someone who loves the 1980s and old anime, is the anime or the manga worth checking out? This song has got me hooked. It's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever listened to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IaSjfNSgk0U

@Jongriffin Nice Genma Panda avatar. I haven't seen enough of it to say. My favorites from the 80's include
Ranma 1/2, The Dirty Pair, Dominion Tank Police, and Appleseed - although I read more of that in the manga form.

きまぐれオレンジ☆ロード ,I've re-watched it couple of years ago, and enjoyed like my first time in early 90's ( when I was 14 - 16 Y.O. ) :dance:

Btw, his OST are one of my favourite late 80's Japanese POP all together with the OST of Bubblegum Crisis / Crass / Tokyo 2040...

Sure you already must find it...

Ekkun, as a matter of fact, I did finish watching it about three months ago. I loved it. It was an all around beautiful series. I have to admit, I have mixed feelings about the first movie, though. But I love the show and the OAVs.

:dance: Glad you did watched!, and more glad to hear that you did indeed enjyo it!. :<3: Still, this one of my favorites, with City Hunter (Tsukasa Hojo), and the Clasis (first series) of Dr. Slump (Toriyama Akira). Those are different genres.

I Share your point of view with the last Movie. "Shin K.O.R.) …
Not sure f that where in the original manga series... as thou the autor made a continuation at latertimes...
When First Spanish edition of the manga seriesm it where Cancelled with 28 numbers of 48 pages (more or less) Just the first 8 (of 15) of the original Japanes Tankoubon.

… At later it receiclve 2 reedition… one in Castillian (aka Spanish), from the Kanzenban edition with 10 Vols. and another in my 2nd mother tongue, Català also 10 Vols.
but sadly i didn't have thecahs to buy it. …
Probably one of many things I've repent ... XD

Ekkun, thanks for your reply. I appreciate it. You'll have to forgive me, though. When you mean the last movie, are you referring to Summer's Beginning, the second movie, or the first movie, I Want to Return to that Day? I have not seen the second movie. I am referring to the first movie, I Want to Return to that Day. I was angry at how Kyosuke treated Hikaru.
