My buddy was lamenting the current state of anime and how awful it was. This was because we were discussing "Battle Angle Alita" and the author's steady descent into madness/Dragon Ball Z.
I reminded him of such classics as "Twilight of the Dark Master", "The Peacock King" and "Angel of Death".
"Remember," I said "Those were videos you had to buy on VHS for 20+ dollars. And if you didn't like those selections, the only alternative was Ranma 1/2."
For what it's worth, the entire series is on this channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/InsaneJericho66#p/u
The first two story arcs (which encompass three episodes) are worth watching if you like terrible 90's anime, but there's nothing worthwhile about the rest.
