Ah, Escaflowne. I should probably rewatch that at some point. I’ve got both the movie and the series DVDs around, so it’s more a matter of when than if… I remember the movie being rather different from the series but it’s been such a long time since I’ve seen either that I don’t really remember the details.
Going back to different eras of anime can be neat. I’ve only got a couple shows and movies from the 80s and 90s though. The oldest I have access to right now is Lupin III (the first season from 1971, I think, plus the pilot from the late 60s) since it got a DVD release a few years ago. (I saw some reruns of Speed Racer and Hakushon Daimao on TV when I was kid but I don’t have a copy.) Maybe I should sort my shows by age and try looking at the progression of styles over time. Hmm…
