ED Turing Love
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-MVk5I6wjo. OP Shakunetsu Switch because someone mentioned they used ping pong sound effects before the chorus and I like the bass in it. Anisongs have fun composition and lyrics in general. If you download the OP/ED singles, they sometimes include bonus versions and other songs in them. I could make a list but I don't want spam links, if anything, I recommend listening to the full versions of the songs you like.
>>121187This is from the same artist, you should check out her whole discography if you like songs like that
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDM0Y5dNRtA>>123204I want to rewatch it for the same reasons. That ED is how I discovered Sayuri back then, the CD included an acoustic version of one of her songs.

>>123210I wouldn't worry about spamming links here, I made this thread in the first place because I really love anisongs and the thoughtful composition usually put into OP/EDs. I've spammed a bunch of them in the past myself too. Also kinda funny that you mention finding Sayuri from KnH since that's exactly how I found out about her too.
In other news I was relistening to Shana's themes and while the first OP is my favorite visuals+song, the ED is the best outright song.

Bubblegum Crisis is old, not retro.

>>124601Retro does not mean "old". It means "backward".
Some new objects are made in the style of bygone times. We call them retro because these objects are backward-oriented. Like when anime use stylistic features of cel animation despite being made digitally, that is retro.
For anime, that's the extent of it.
In the context of gaming, the terms blur a bit, because to play certain old games, you have to pursue old hardware too. It almost necessitates a dedicated lifestyle. Ergo, there is a retro fanbase that either shares old gaming machines or emulators or various hacks that are necessary to support this hobby. The term retro is then applied not just to the hobby, but often to old games as well (despite the games themselves just being old).
I wouldn't call playing games from the 2000s retro.
We could argue about games from the 90s that you have to at least install DOSbox for.
To me, pinball machines and similar objects are the epitome of the "retro" scene.
(but then, I'm not a gamer, so what does my opinion count?)
