For the record I’m pretty sure that’s not a nun’s outfit. I think it’s some type of Dutch women’s attire? Someone more well versed in fashion could help me out on this.

Tax, nun outfit varieties:

Yeah it's a dutch farmer's wife, you often spot this kind of dress in those picturesque images of windmills and tulip fields. Wearing clogs ofc.
 
This thread has given me so much enjoyment over the years.

To everybody who posts, and everyone who leaves stickers, and even those who just lurk (I know you're reading this), thank you for being a part of it.



Pictured: you.

Escaflowne was so fucking good, and yeah the series is better than the movie, but both were great in their own way.
The designs, the animation, the fucking music, the action, mystery, and political intrigue for the boys, the romance, love triangles, and soap opera drama for the girls, the plot twists, etc.
Even if it had a catgirl and a pooner (involuntary), still one of my favorite animes ever.

Oh right, the tax.

I rewatched it last year and while i'm not as fond of the character designs as i used to be (it's the noses) the mecha design, story and general animation (but especially the action scenes) are still on fucking point. Must-watch for any weeb, really, the show has something for everyone, as you stated.

I posted this somewhere else already, but the german version had Dax Rider's "People" as the intro song. While sacrilegious to remove anything composed by Yoko Kanno i am still very fond of that version:

The noses were the weak point, but you have a series with two of the three Macross Plus people, for those who don't follow that's Shoji Kawamori, Shinichiro Watanabe, and Yoko Kanno. Typically having just one of them working on an anime meant your were getting at least something good or different. Kawamori and Kanno were on Escaflowne, and Kawamori, when he's not being silly and weird, seems to like heavier, actually mature themes and the characters acting like actual people. And yes, Bebop, Kawamori worked on that, mostly design. But Escaflowne comes from the era when Anime at least tried new and different things, the mid to late 90s really were something. Even into the early aughts sometimes, Kawamori was the first to really get making 3D work in anime.

There's so few people who do anything interesting anymore. Shinbo over at SHAFT but he's mostly retired, unless it's Bakemonogatari related, which I like but it has it's...uh...issues.
