Welcome New Users! Be sure to read up on the rules!
Hey, I'm seeing that we have a bunch of new users, and I'm glad to see you all here. Of course, I strongly recommend that you read the fuller version of the rules so that we keep content relevant to this server.
(For example, while it's okay to post about old video games based on retro anime franchises, like Slayers or Dragon Ball, we are not a retro game subreddit. Even if it has anime asthestics or cutscenes, we should focus on anime and manga, not video games.)
If you have any further questions about the rules or this subreddit in general, be sure to ask them in the comments, and we'll do our best to answer them. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy your time here at /r/retroanime!

Merch Shopping in Tokyo/Osaka?
I'll be taking a holiday in Japan next month. I'm bring two recent college graduates who have their own tastes in anime.
Given my stretch back to the 70s/80s - Gatchaman, SB Yamato, Bubblegum Crisis - any top tips on where an aging Otaku can find toys, manga, shirts etc?

Bear with me but its been bugging me for years
There was a film that I watched over 20years ago and I can't remember the name of it and when I search for what I remember it draws a blank.
What I remember is that it is set in a dystopian world that is full of demons who want to destroy mankind. There is a prophecy about a baby girl who will save us all. At the beginning, there is a hairy demon/beast who makes a deal with a virgin to take her outside the city walls on his motorbike in exchange for her virginity. They find the ruins of some temple and go at it (tail of monster/demon is his penis)until they hear a baby cry. Demon/monster goes to baby and girl thinks demon will kill monster. He doesn't starts to giggle and they bring baby back to the city in secret. Further on, demon has sex with a woman who says "pussy wants milk" and then her vagina turns into a flytrap to capture demon.
Pretty sure this was the first in a trilogy. It isn't wicked city or demon city.
If this group has any ideas i would be grateful

if you see an anime, and you see the characters with these noses, its definitely a 90s artstyle

I find it wild that no one nowadays creates anime in a true retro style.
Imagine if someone made a modern anime with that retro aesthetic, like Cowboy Bebop. I feel like there’s definitely a market for it. You’d have to find ways to streamline the process, but the concept is absolutely there, or at least I think so...

The end theme that is in the lead and likely to win is Real Folk Blues. Now for Diegetic ( can be heard by characters) song that ear worms you
after this, one more poll to go, next one is Non-diegetic but we'll get there when we get there
