Seriously when I think Japanese 80's decadence I always think DYRL. And this is from before the bubble proper
And I'm also taking random shots, not even cherrypicking AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I LOVE THIS MOVIE

Since I've become somewhat of a mecha fan and someone who can really enjoy mecha animation since my last watch...
Frames like these are litterally bringing tears to my eyes now

The only non-sexist line in the entire movie, you better appreciate it

Reminder that Takashi Nakamura was an absolute monster when he felt like it

"Male gaze" is when the camera litterally adopts the pov of the male protagonist scanning over the body of a stunned, lying down woman with his flashlight

Remember: when in life-threatening situations, always ask for an autograph first

SPACE TUNA
I REPEAT
SPACE TUNA

(I hope you didn't expect me to say anything actually intelligent in this thread)
