Cassette-futurism is the best aesthetic for future settings in both anime and live action because it never seems to age beyond believability. Movies about the future made in the 80’s and 90’s still feel like the future, just with a bit more tactile interfaces.
Finally seeing some one mention this underrated genre, i would like to see stuff like this or biopunk or atompunk explored more, especially in anime , sci fi is so damn rare nowdays
Optical disc encased in a plastic shell is peak retro future. Too bad we didn't make the SSD to be designed like a floppy disk or some kind of removable storage that you insert into a drive like a floppy disk. Slim laptops today could use this.
Speaking of tactility, I don't like the direction that the A-Hole elon musk is taking the car industry by making everything in a vehicle controlled by a damn ipad. I try to stick to cars with as much tactile interfaces as much as possible. Touch screens are only useful in certain applications like phones and some other appliances.
The emotional maturity and forward thinking found in the ranks of society in such series, in contrast to the shortsighted, destructive, emotional immaturity found in almost all levels of industry and government in this world, makes one wonder if those series should be reality and our world should be the fiction.
The "feedback gloves" always made so much more sense than mobile suit cockpits. I had a harder time believing that controls and levers in a Gundam could provide fine hand movement for sword dueling, than Newtype psychic magic.
Wait what? Don't tell me it's Netflix. With the way they butchered the politics of Cowboy Bebop, Gundam it's gonna be worse than the mess of Gundam Wing, and I say that as someone which read a lot of Wing fanfics.@@gundam5281
Later UC does a lot to address this. Sure, those gloves are fine for mecha like these, but they become a problem when your mecha have to do things like transform or fly.
yeah i noticed in later gundams the controls started to have buttons underneath each individual finger probably as some finger detection system like we see on the valve index today (but not capacitive)
I don't think there would be an issue with joystick type controls. Think of a video game - you walk over to a door and press A to open it. The game's code finds the door, determines proximity to the door, and displays the option to open it. The character does the "work" of locating the handle, grasping it, and rotating it, then pushing the door. It's contextual with the "system" both interpreting what interactions you can do as well as coordinating the action itself. In a mobile suit, it would be similar, the mobile suit's sensors and computer feeding the pilot information about the environment and potential interactions. The mobile suit itself would then execute any actions the pilot chooses. This can all be accomplished with a single button press by the pilot, leaving their hands free to continue issuing a wide variety of commands. If the pilots hands are entirely devoted to controlling the mobile suit's hands, how easy is it for the pilot to control all other functions in the mobile suit? It seems like it would be much more difficult. I'm not terribly familiar with Patlabor, so my analysis of those the feedback gloves could be wrong, but my main point is that joystick-type controls are perfectly sufficient when managed by an intelligent computer intermediary.
@n_gorgonzolazola If you actually took the time to watch stuff other than shounenshit and Normie anime movies marketed to appeal to the lowest common denominator, you'd find anime with equal amount of care comparable to this, put into it.
@@geronimo5537 Terrible anime existed back in the straight to VHS days as well. The difference here is scale. There are more shows made in a single season nowadays compared to what's released in an entire year back in the past.

do you realize how many japanese animators died on job by overworking and committed suicide making this anime all day and nights drawing every frame by hand in the 80s and 90s? They stopped working that hard now and delegate inbetween frame drawing to phillipinos and employ 3d so the quality went down.
@@HokuninThat’s very untrue. Working conditions in anime studios have only worsened from the time of the 80s and 90s. The conditions were bad back then, but it never got so bad that animators were doing things like sleeping at the office or committing suicide over it.
I want to say it was done by Masamune Shirow, but I’m not 100% on that. Shirow DID do ghost in the shell, and the similarities between the two are unmistakable.
Well, it wasnt done by one guy but by a large team(around 50 artists). In that time there wasn't the idea of animation studios like today so the credit goes to the director. Which is fine since he picks the best guys and keeps them around.
Damn I miss anime like this. Huge respect to the animators who worked in projects like these. They really don't make them like this anymore. Visually stunning.
Omg so much to say. The silence, as in the no talking, really draws you into the aesthetic. Into the details of the sound effects, the physicality, the real believability of the artists imagination. Quite the phenomenal video actually. Thumbs up man.
Patlabor is the Analog Future, the logical extension of all the technologies that existed when the series was made. If CRT, tape and analog video development had proceeded into the present, this is where we would be. Almost makes me sad that digital equivalents took over so completely.
Analog future, AKA if Tape-deck nerds were given god power. Spoilers, Tape-deck nerds FUCKIN KNOW HOW TO MAKE THE FUTURE. Probably because they like stuff like instrumentation and component design... It's all very lovely and tactile, clicky yet smooth because Analogue computing processes are such beautiful fusions of design and the 1 to 1 real world they function as analogues to.
@@OneBiasedOpinion I mean, you'll notice that however cool Patlabor tech is, it isn't that impressive aside from the giant robots. There are definitely drawbacks. It sure looks cool, though!
@user-hz6fj9xy4y Oh I'm fully aware of DAT and other digital tape formats for audio and video; I used a lot of Hi8 in camcorders way back when. However, I count it as analogue because most storage formats these days are solid state, rather than magnetic tape or even optical disc. Moving parts and all that.
Theres something magical about hand drawn classical cel animation, and even more when it packs so much detail and realism... New animation may look incredible with all the effects they can put in with digital animation but old school grainy cel animation just hits different IMO.
I really like see the inspiration of tech at the time that played into the detailing of the scenes. All those little knobs and cables played a role using larger electronics back then.
guess i'm rewatching patlabor the movie 2 again real soon. I do like how much you included from the first movie, too. I did archival stuff at a radio station for awhile, so just seeing the minidisc player and that very specific cassette deck brings some stuff back for me even though i interacted with it all just about 5 years ago, now.
While there still some legal case but back then in the 90s-00s there no laws forbidden us to use real world assets unlike now days, and I think the only who do that back then is Disney and Disney few years later decide to mess up Copyright laws resulting this world mess.
@@bhirawamaylana466 I think you misunderstand what I am saying. It might be a translation error. I want to know if the studio used the animation technique: roto-scoping. Nobody owns the legal rights to roto-scoping. It is not illegal to roto-scope. It is not illegal to use real world assets in animation. It was not illegal in the past, and it is not illegal in the present. Disney's copyright laws are unrelated, so I do not understand why you mentioned that.
@@FurryWrecker911 sorry its look like my mind suddenly jump to weird way when you mention Real World Assets coz recently I watch Legal issue using real world assets and mainly Disney manipulation and twist the Laws, as for if studio use Real world asset I think they did use real world asset which very common back then.
For some action stuff on robots, vehicles, 3dimensional shapes, etc., they did use rotoscoping in those days (maybe mid to late 80's, early 90's). They'd animate over very simple CG to get stuff like perspectives consistent. However, it shouldn't be forgotten that those guys were still artists in their own right, and if something didn't look quite right they were able to compensate for it.@@FurryWrecker911
What freaks me out so much is the headsets they predicted back then for HUD really exist now, and I freakin OWN one. We don't make enough if a big deal about our tech advancements over the years.
Take a look at all the details, designs, and colorings. Anime back in the late 80s and 90s gave them a quality that can’t really be replicated by today’s standards. Today’s anime feels flat in details and designs and that the coloring is way too bright and warm. Even if digital does somehow able to make something like this it wouldn’t capture the feel of how much passion was put into these works.
sadly its too expensive and took times to make something like these.they prefer the junk food principal now, make fast, cheap, and mediocre anime, but you can mass produce it and throw it all at the consumer, at least 1 or 2 would stick kinda way
@@william3791 those who survive the post bubble recession are majority big, established studios. Even they struggle to stay afloat. Not to mention Japan has been outsourcing animation abroad since the 1990's.

I honestly miss this style of anime. There’s something to it. The smooth animation or the detail they put into it. Even for the SMALLEST parts was just beautiful.🤩🤩
To all the nostalgic types out there this video is a good showcase of how old anime can be just wonderfully painted... while also having the FPS of a Power Point. Like look at this shot at 0:08. We've got a still frame cockpit sliding over a still frame background with some glittery lights, two pictures killing nearly 4 whole seconds of run time. And this video is like 95% shots like that outside that lovely hand job. And 20th century anime is chock full of little tricks like this once you know what to look for or just actually go back and watch this shit not see a highlight reel on youtube. Not even a knock, the old masters played the game well but while anime doesn't spend time much time making every frame a painting these days quality anime is far more *animated.* Watch something like the best bits of a Kill la Kill or Demon Slayer and see how fluid they are next to all those "heavy industrial aesthetic" anime of old. And of course remember there was plenty of crap animation in every era. Go watch the first part of Slayers for example, funny show but not well animated even for the day until Next.
Macross, Patlabor, Escaflowne. The coolest Mechs anime with such attention to details and aesthetics. We Peaked as a Race in the 90's and we will never achieve this level of perfection once again
Still beautiful. I will say, though, that the 'car that drives over other cars' ( 2:10 ) is another of those things I thought we'd have by now, that is apparently harder to make economical than it looks - or it's just that making something like that exclusively for emergency services is too expensive, and making it available to the rest of us is a non-starter, since it would soon lead to traffic jams on top of the traffic jams.
Subscribed to this guy after seeing a random Mecha future sci-fi tech asthetic montage which is something I used to browse Giffy for by typing in sci-fi junk. Never knew it was a big thing or anything other than something random I enjoyed looking at. Cockpit Buttons. Being a huge Mecha and battletech Gundam fan I am currently shooting live action fan film content in hopes of making an actual movie. The small part in this video where the torn up mech is sitting in the background. With all the birds in the foreground slightly blurred. And the Cockpits Hatch Busts open and the birds fly off is something I am about to take and use for a shot in my next live action bit Nice love this stuff
G-gundam was always my favorite control system just because it made sense even if it went a little sideways with the spandex suit application every time you hopped in the Gundam.
Only in movies and OVAs. Stardust Memory and 08th MS Team look like an anime movie. Then again, this is SUNRISE we're talking about. There's a reason why Cowboy Bebop look like an OVA even though it's a tv series. Try watch Gundam Wing and then watch Endless Waltz, see which has better animation.
