A few years ago I reluctantly started watching the original Ultraman under the assumption it'd be just another boring MOTW and I honestly gotta say it has become my favourite show of all time, absolutely fucking amazing stuff, especially the Jissoji episodes. Everybody I recommend it to always just assume it's just a silly show about about a costumed man rampaging in a large toy diorama and never give it the time of day.

anyone reading this watch the first 2 episodes right fucking now

Turn them into webms and upload them here and maybe I will.

I don't. Several of my favorite shows are from the 70s. Though admittedly, for a lot of this stuff, like Ashita no Joe, I'd rather just read the manga.

Indeed. Have you seen Ultraseven? It's even better imo, and easily one of the best TV shows ever if you ask me.
>especially the Jissoji episodes
Great taste. I've thought a few times about doing a stream here for the Jissouji episodes of Ultraman and Ultraseven.

I did check out Dororo and it sucked compared to the 2019 version. Why waste time watching anything older than the 80's when it'll all be remade eventually?

I'm not sure if people ignore them as much as it's inaccessible to them. Most people are going to be limited to what the streaming service provides to them, and word of mouth spreads from there. Do those streaming piracy sites have stuff from back then? They might feel that it's not popular enough to justify the storage costs or however that works. People who torrent are like 0.01% of the anime "fanbase" now I feel.

>The Real question is Why Haven't YOU Checked out something from the 60's and 70s.
I have! But, one of my complaints with stuff from that time is the audio. It's really... weird. Like it's recorded in a tunnel from inside someone's backpack. I'm not an audiophile, but that does bother me.

most old anime is on youtube, though a lot of modern stuff may have annoying anti-content ID filters

I just finished Aim for the Ace! just a couple weeks ago. I like it, but it's not something to watch all the time.

I tried watching that too after I had seen the 2019 version and it was confusing, it seems to assume that you had read the manga already since a lot of stuff is just not explained.

Yeah Ultraseven is pretty great although I did find it a bit harder to get into as Ultraman at first. Lots of forgettable episodes but when it did shine it shined real fucking hard, like alien metron, robot planet and that one ep where the aliens troll the shit out of that astronomer
