    Wish there was more animation like this with stories that went this hard today. This is definitely a regular nostalgia watch for me.

        Now that one I had seen. Though it’s been almost a decade now I think. But I remember Cartoon Network airing it in segments during Halloween one year.

            It was definitely different from a lot of the young adult content out at the time or since. I was a bit more meh about it. Partially because it was one of those things that was a good part about the famous actors lending their voice. And not voice actors. the animation was well done, story was well written and the acting Stars did well for the roles. But it was just also at a time when I was just kind of drifting away from Cartoon Network and even adult swim. The energy of the 90s and early auts had long been gone.

      Check out Scavenger’s Reign. Most original and outright weird story I’ve seen in an anime in years. And the worldbuilding is amazing.

        No I had not. I will have to check it out later. Another unusual but good children’s animated classic was recently rediscovered a few years back. A 1977 Raggedy Ann movie was scanned from an old 16 mm print I think? And put up on YouTube and good quality. The last time it had ever been released was on VHS back in the early 90s. I think it was thought lost.
