I don't know any of those anime, but I want to tell you something I hope you'll get a laugh out of. I am so used to American Sign Language, that I see you counting down that way as "six, two, one".
These animes were too old.. I only got Jojo, and fist of the northstar and finding a dub or a sub was impossible back then. Only a few animes were ever translated. Back in the 80's and 90's anime from Japan was not very popular in America. Some of the most popular ones were Vampire Hunter D, Ninja Scroll, Ghost in the Shell, Neon, Genesis. You'll be hard press to find anyone who even knew anything about these animes. What was shown on television wasn't very popular with my generation except for Dragon Ball Z of course, which didn't air in america till 1996. Unfortunately (Berzerk), wasn't translated or even heard of till the 2010's. Also, a lot of people didn't even watch DBZ. Anything from Japan was treated as being too childish to endure, which I agree. Japanese anime was terrible until recently, and kind of still is with the flooding animes geared toward children only. American cartoon's just dominated the scene. The Spawn (cartoon) was very popular, Heavy Metal was very popular, Fritz The Cat (1972) was popular, Æon Flux was very popular, Beavis and Butthead and so on. Notice I used the word cartoon. The term (Anime) was a term never used broadly until recently. It kinda just goes to show how unpopular anime was at the time. On a high note, Japan finally got their shit together to release some of the G.O.A.T animes like Re-zero, Dan Machi, Attack on Titan, Netflix's Grappler Baki, and much more. Even the Koreans are making incredible animes like Solo Leveling. America has kind of fallen behind in some regards, but there are still a lot of great productions out there. Netflix's Castlevania, Netflix's cyberpunk, Netflix's Altered Carbon, Amazon's Invincible. Unfortunately, America doesn't release a lot of content like we used to. Honestly, we do have the best productions when it comes to this kind of thing, but slowly I think our productions are building up steam for some good ones, especially when it comes down to collaborations with the Asian and european productions. I guess I should give credit to Europe for Hammer and Bolter and the Cyberpunk collaboration. Everyone needs to watch Games Workshop's Hammer and Bolter just once!
We must've grown up in different worlds. It's true anime in the 80's was scarce, so much so you basically needed to know people who created their own subs and then you'd pass out the vhs like a dirty magazine. Come the 90's though it got very popular. Dragonball then DBZ and Gundam were huge when they released, followed soon after but a flood of massive kid franchises like Pokemon and Digi on and the like. Cartoon Network began having full blocks of time in the evening for shows like Gundam, DBZ, Outlaw Star, Cowboy Bebop, Escaflone, etc., by the late 90's early 2000's. Not to mention studios like Ghibli were really putting Japanese animation style on the Mal in the western world.
