    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Akira wasn't my first, but I definitely watched it early on.

    I believe Lodoss War or Ninja Scroll was my first.

    Also yeah, most of the stories follow a similar overarching plot. It's the little stuff that make or break the actually full story.

    I probably put 20 hours into blitzball and I don't regret a single second.

    The opening to FFX is more a flashback than a time travel thing tbh

    the only thing that isn’t clear in ffx is how do dream people (jecht and tidus) have the ability to interact with actual people

    but we’re talking about a game series where undead monsters are in every game so

    The Faye gave everything physical form i.e. Sin, Jecht, Tidus, summons etc. They manifested their dreams with the combined power/energy of the millions of dead people and souls that never moved on.

    Looking back, that shit made less than zero sense.
    The problem with Akira is it was a super condensed movie of a manga that was several years in and wasn't even finished when it came out. It was never gonna make sense.

    Then you have FLCL where chick is legit pulling a guitar out of her head, and you just give up on the plot and enjoy the anime for it being completely out of the norm and having fun action scenes.

    Some old anime had good plot, though. My all-time favorite is Bubble Gum Crisis. Was so awesome when they remade it.


    I am kinda hoping someday they'll do another remake of that.

    akira is still talked about consistently are you daft, anytime anyone talks about animation in general akira comes up for what it did with it's use of frames etc. also it was re-released in 2020 and shown in IMAX theaters.

    However, this is all because the quality of it's animation, the story in the movie obliterated what little sense the manga had attempted to make.

    Absolutely hated FLCL. Bubblegum crisis was great though.
