Spent some time watching some classic Devilman anime. It's been around 3 decades since I last watched it.

It's kinda obvious I was into anime when I was little, and *didn't* for 10-ish years and then got back into it lmao

I’m watching an older anime from the late 90s (Ceres, Celestial Legend) and I gotta say, I do miss the big comedic expressions from pre millennium era anime. XD it’s a lot art form. 😁

I am VERY inconsistent whew! I really do like how this turned out! It's Deedlit from Record of Lodoss War :). Kind of a simple test of the style and getting the results I want.

Rewatching Sailor Moon for the gazillionth time and I swear I notice new lore every time. My brain is buzzing with theories about the Silver Millennium. Anyone else get lost in classic anime world-building? What's your fave to deep dive into? #Anime #ClassicAnime

Alright, fam, time for a classic anime lore hot take! What's a theory or a deep dive that lives rent-free in your head? Mine might involve some controversial takes on Gendo Ikari. Spill the tea! 🤓 #Anime #ClassicAnime #NerdyThoughts
