I miss watching anime on television

I miss old animes

*blocks your path*

They already do that

>those days when you actually feels hype
yeah user, we are oldbros

>sitting in school waiting to rush home to watch monster rancher, sailor moon, pokemon and dragonballz
>fox kids started showing stuff like escaflowne and technoman later in the evening
Fuck bros it was so good. Everything's so readily available now

the best way to watch anything is on a comfy laptop with a 4k screen laying down on a plump leather couch underneath a mountain of blankets with a mug of hot tea. prove me wrong literally impossible. i win

That looks pretty fucking comfy

As a person who has spent way too many hours dealing with vertical hold, tint, VHS tracking, SVHS tracking, UHF antennas, time base correctors, genlocks, and every other godforsaken gadget to improve video quality and the overall analog experience over the years, all I can say to CRTs now is that they are sort of comfy, and that's it.
PC->OLED now. The old VHS can stay in the garage.

this, it just isn't worth the effort

I saw someone throwing a Trinitron away last year, but I wasn't strong enough to pick it up and I have no friends so I had to leave it there. If anyone isn't aware, Trinitrons were flat screen HD CRT tvs, made right before the switch to plasma/LCD/LED. Most predated 16:9, but towards the end there were some models made with that aspect ratio. They were truly some of the finest TVs ever made. God I wish I had friends.

You can never revive those times user.

>I’ve been buying anime VHS tapes lately
Is there really a market for them?
I have some EVA and some Pokemon movies on VHS would have been more, but I had a bunch stolen while moving house and I can't justify buying a VHS player.

A few more of those and you'll have a cyberpunk video wall.

Damn, takes me back to the early 2000's.

>It's the early 2000's
>you're in elementary school and it's movie day
>everyone sitting on the floor
>teacher wheels in the big metal cart with a TV and VHS player on it
>you have a styrofoam bowl full of cheerios or some other snack food
>starts the VHS for whatever kids' movie it is
>trailer for Kiki's Delivery Service or some other Ghibli movie plays at the start
Any other late millennial/early zoomers remember that feel?

You can still watch anime on a TV.

but muh soul don't you chumps get it

I unironically love the shitty old ads and trialers they put on anime VHS tapes back in the day. Back when anime was not so easily attainable and I couldn't just look everything up on the internet, getting one was like discovering an ancient and mysterious treasure. The ads got me so hyped up. It was like a party.

I remembered Anime Network.

Forgot my shitty old ads.

Shame they never show it in the UK

Unironically agree.

They used to up until 2004. Then every channel just sort of dropped it all

What is a comfy laptop?
