Rakushou! Hyper Doll

This is a comprehensive list of old retro anime and new modern anime that prominently feature "Bikini Armors" as the main clothing choice within a high fantasy setting as seen in https://anidb.net/tag/1101 (no hentai or explicit content)

Bikini armor is a female-exclusive fantasy armor that only covers the breasts and pubic area and leaves the cleavage, midriff, thighs and legs exposed. first appeared in western comics like Conan and Red Sonja, then adopted by master mangaka Osamu Tezuka Sensei in his masterpiece titled "Prime Rose", the bikini armor saw a huge boom from the mid 80's to mid 90's, nowadays the bikini armor is a staple in fantasy animes such as in Queen's Blade and Bikini Warriors.

Usually worn by attractive female warriors/witches or heroines/villainesses in fantasy worlds to maximize exposure of body parts such as the cleavage, midriff, buttocks, hips, thighs, legs. The top part covering the breasts is either a bikini top or shaped much like a brassiere with metallic reinforcement. The bottom may be a bikini bottom, a thong, highleg or lowleg panties, pelvic curtains, tribal loincloths, open skirts, briefs, short shorts, hot pants, chaps, side faulds along with some accessories like blade sheaths, scabbards, holsters, battle helmets, hairbands, headdresses, crowns, tiaras, diadems, hats, forehead gems, forehead jewels, forehead protectors, capes, pauldrons, bracers, gloves, gauntlets, elbow pads, knee pads, shoulder pads, chokers, necklaces, ear rings, neck rings, jewelry rings, belly chains, full body ribbons, stockings, piercings, tattoos, scars, belts, cuffs, bandages, masks, make-up, circlets, armlets, arm straps, armbands, bracelets, shin guards, thighlets, thigh straps, thigh bands, anklets, wrist guards, corsets, capelets, collars, garters, pasties, harnesses, arm & leg warmers, vambraces, codpieces, high heels, Greek sandals, boots and greaves.

Includes all* anime on the Anime+/GRAPH mahou shoujo/magical girl achievement list

Notes:
If the anime is saved under a different name in the original list (and the ID matches), the listed title is added as a comment. The anime will keep its place according to the list - even if it will no longer be alphabetically correct according to its main title on MAL. This is to make the job of checking and updating these much easier for me.

*The main stacks do NOT include hentai. This is both for people who want to avoid it, and because including it will significantly limit the stack. Please proceed to the Hentai Edition™ in the list below if you're into that.

Short form anime series on this site can often be underappreciated. In the same way poetry is radically different from fiction novels, which are radically different from screenplays and so forth, I view shorter series, typically OVAs, in the same way. Too frequently they're compared to TV series, and there will be many comparative allusions roughly paraphrasing, "You can't expect much from the story/characters because of how short it is", or other similar comments. The value of the efficacy of the presentation in both shorter and longer series are for the most part incomparable to each other. They both strive to do very different things through very different means despite the shared medium of "anime". Of course, what constitutes the differences or goals of a creator is quite vast, but the point is that from my personal view, because the context of the existence of shows that would either be shorter in length or longer are so different and require much different means for communicating the information that they present, I think they should be judged by different standards. How a person judges them is up to themselves, but I do believe short series are worthy of the praise that many would only attribute to more lengthy series. What I want to do is give reverence for the fun-sized length series I have come across and enjoyed to some degree.

What constitutes a “short” series is something shorter in length than a standard minimum length TV series, which is 12 episodes in length. The focus is not on the number of episodes, but rather judging roughly the amount of time. So, if there is a series with 24 episodes, but they are only 3 minutes in length, for example, that would constitute a short series.

Vibes. Absolute vibes.

I am attempting to curate the definitive catalog of THE most 𝓐𝓔𝓢𝓣𝓗𝓔𝓣𝓘𝓒 anime, found exclusively between the 80s and 90s!

Many millennials, Gen Z, or younger experience a 'longing' (often known as "anemoia") for the pre-internet world, when VHS tapes enveloped film in a comforting saturation, when stereos emitted synthpop, and when the warm sun caused the rippling seas to glisten just that much more.

This Interest Stack is curated to support members in finding entries which share highly specific or niche interests: that is: 80s-90s anime that boast a retro "aesthetic" prowess: an art style or color palette that evoke "vibes", "atmosphere", "ambiance", or "nostalgia".

These anime are brimming with screenshotable frames and GIF-worthy animations to suit any YouTube lo-fi mixtape, playlist of beats to study to, Pinterest feeds, or cater to anyone's longing for an ethereal bygone era.

“Looking at still images from the blu-ray of this anime makes me want to cry. People throw around the word ‘aesthetic’—they throw is around a LOT—especially when talking about old anime on VHS; but, I have never seen Shounan Bakusouzoku talked about.” — Kenny Lauderdale

Suggestions welcomed!

1990s, 1990's, 90s, 90's

1980s, 1980's, 80s, 80's

P.S. I really tried not to use the word "vaporwave". But yeah. That's pretty much what this stack is.

A collection of Vibrant, High-Energy, and Dynamic anime. Anime that exude energy, excitement, and maintain a captivating sense of movement and enthusiasm.

Animaze was a company that was formed in 1992 by Kevin Seymour and was in-work up until about 2008 following a closure in 2010 after Seymour had passed away. Animaze, outside of anime, has also dubbed many video games! Regardless, as follows are the anime that Animaze have dubbed! Hokuto no Ken and Super Dimension Century Orguss are excluded because they did not dub the full show!

For some odd reason Animaze decided to dub Orguss 02 instead of finishing the orginal show.

All OVAS,ONA,Special, TV Special with Opening for AMQ, Famous or not!

(Openings being single, not part from TV series)
