    no, that was the 70s. but those 70s marxists were still making anime and had a lot of influence in the 90s, even if they weren't the main creative forces in the industry anymore

      60s and 70s marxists making anime, passing the torch to their socdem students in the late 80s and 90s and then their lib students in the 2000s and early 2010s... and chuds in the late 2010s and 2020s?

        the libs took over in 1982 and ruined the entire industry forever because now we only get anime by people who liked anime by people who liked anime by people who liked anime

        being genuine here, i think macross is functionally identical to the army of wish fulfillment ln adaptations we get every season

          I've only seen the movie but thought it was hugely overrated.
