Me toooo! It’s definitely something only animations can do and love it so much differently from movies (I mean movies can shoot the dramatic destruction scenes too, but it would ruin the overall flow and aesthetic because movies have to be more real than animation)
+MDthornton83 I agree, great song and story... one of the few anime I think can really get the Hollywood treatment and work... as long as Michael Bay stays away!
In the manga "Rocky" dies by crashing head on with a T-62 tank using a jeep but I guess that doesn't play well in the OVA so they changed it to being the backseater with "Bucksy".
this is the OVA from the 80s. there is a 12 episode anime from the 2000s but it lacks the gritty details though it does have a few oscar worthy scenes itself.
I absolutely love the overtly dramatic ways the planes are destroyed. Much better than the terrible CGI fireballs in the TV series.
Yep

塩沢兼人さんの演技。
彼が生前遺した作品でしかもうお目に掛かれないのが寂しいです。
サキ役の志垣太郎さんまでがお亡くなりになるなんて…。

One of the Best AMV I have ever seen
Watching OV-10s explode is heartbreaking.
Area 88 X Top Gun
I'm surprised this video doesn't get more views. This video rocks.

Agreed!
Area 88 deserves more love. But seems somewhat obscure in the anime community. Sad.
as long as the right people watch that's all that matters
@@redroversk Amen to that!
This anime looked awesome. Gotta watch it.
Both the OVA and series are great, but I liked the ending to the series more.
@@HTHTucoTheRatThe series was meh
OVA was the best

In the Manga, Rocky was still flying back-seat in Bucksy's Phantom, but I guess he managed to eject in time
This is the best Area 88 amv.
This is awesome! Love it!!! So in sync too!
3:00 lol firing 4x missiles at a time. overkill! i wanna watch this whole series one day, it's otherwise full of realistic and faithful toon planes
It's available on anime websites and also on RUclips.
