I first watched Ranma 1/2 around 1993 on TV before I even went to primary school. I am also glad that they are remaking it, as I think the story/overall quality of Ranma 1/2 is better than Urusei Yatsura, though both shows are similar in structure and nature. As you can see from my profile, I am also a fan of Takahashi Rumiko, and my favorite manga from her is Mermaid Forest (anime adaptation is not bad but lost some edge of the manga). I only got to watch the whole series of Inuyasha when I was about 32 (LOL), but yes it is a classic and perhaps the most epic and accomplished work from Yumiko.
Fore sure for sure. I for one don't want to dwell too much on nostalgia about older shows. My favorite anime used to be Uchuu no Kishi Tekkaman Blade which I watched when I was about 7 years old (Now my favorite anime is Monster which has been so since 2006). It remains a classic for me, but I also need to acknowledge the flaws with its production (unstable character art in its later half). Still, if you like old-school space opera, I'd highly recommend that show.
Today I just finished watching Gundam MS 08 Squad (1995), and honestly think it's a 9/10 for me.
The same to you, my friend. It seems we both have a knack for older anime. I have been watching anime since circa 1991 (which makes me basically a boomer on this site, LOL). The reason I did not give very high scores to Dragon Ball and Fist of the North Star is not that I did not like them, but that I had a far better experience reading the manga. Other than those shows, our ratings for most shows are pretty similar.
