Toei did a lot of 80s classics as well.
Save for Rankin-Bass, I never knew the US had such a big role in shaping up the anime industry.
If only by coincidence. Part of that also had to do with the success of shows like Tetsuwan Atom (both domestically and internationally when NBC's syndication firm picked it up to distribute in the states) that led to the boom in studios providing "Terebi Manga" with the hopes of mimicking the same success Osamu Tezuka had. Toei's first TV series from 1963 was "Wolf Boy Ken", which interestingly got picked up by Universal's TV division though I don't think it played stateside at all (apparently Hanna-Barbera VA's Daws Butler and Don Messick were brought in to do voices on this).
Story is so-so and kind of went nowhere but man the choreography was worth it.
We live in the timeline God has abandoned.
Watch the Read Or Die OVA (it's 3 episodes) and is on youtube.
Depends on the person too, for some (not me, personally), a show like The Transformers or Real Ghostbusters, due to how prominent the Japanese influences are are at least considered a co-production (at best). Even Digibro couldn't quite place where to put TF at when he did his video explaining this kind of topic.
Sure sounds like they did the animals, at least.
Oh boy a childhood favorite was made by a fucking pedophile. the fact the fucker admits to that with no shame is even more fucked.
Jesus, now the Weinstein domino effect spread on over to the anime industry. Though I never expected something like this would happen.
They have a lot of pages that by all means shouldn't really be on there, like the Dante's Inferno movie and a few live-action properties. And yet, they keep on short shafting anime that should be on there. I never got that other than the people running the encyclopedia are lazy assholes.
Honestly, it was going to spread over sooner or later.
