People say Kimagure Orange Road is overrated considering how old it is, but it’s still a classic. Is it one of the best animes ever made? Maybe.
It’s old and lacks Akemi Takada’s touch but this is THE romance manga.
The art style was awful the first year of its run (AoT/SnK anyone?), but the character appearances we all know and love were set by 1985. Interestingly so, Matsumoto changed Ayukawa’s appearance more resembling a character named “Hikaru” from a one-shot he did a year before KOR’s debut.
Any ways,sorry for derailing the discussion like that.It’s just that I keep kicking my head every time I think how much I could still be enjoying my fansubs if I hadn’t been idiotic back then.
I believe the twentieth anniversary DVDs from early 2007 were re-subbed.
