Did you grow up on Speed Racer, Star Blazers or Robotech?
Then this might be for you.
Rules:
1> Vintage is in the eye of the beholder but probably pre 2000s is a safe bet.
2> Discussion of new release of old shows is welcome
3> Discussion of unofficial releases should be limited to shows that are not currently available outside of Japan otherwise.
4> Have fun!

Loved this series back in the late 80s!
In a dystopic and cyberepunkish Tokyo, IA robots are getting rogue. Perhaps that pesky technological GENOM corporation has something to do with the issue.

Awesome aesthetics and mechanical design: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbqlEUu3sSY

Charismatic characters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKlxIAa5Tsg
In my country several pirated episodes were distributed with adhoc subtitles and spanish dubbling. Sadly the original series was never finished, but it inspired a complete anime series under the same premise.
There is this funny cop show, "You're under arrest". (Taiho Shichauzo) It got into animation media on the mid 90s, but its based on a 80s manga.
Two female cops and many funny characters, and great vehicle chases.
