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!

Quite a lot more, I’d say there is 2x to 3x more. And more importantly it feels complete. The movie seems like it needed a sequel and that sequel is in the manga.
If you liked the movie you’ll love the manga, guaranteed
I always loved the movie's art design and sense of place, but the plot felt a little threadbare. Sounds like the manga might be worth a look just to get a fuller picture of the world.
Oh, definitely. Maybe the best way to put it is that the movie is like a trailer for the manga.
Miyazaki's art in this is just amazing.
Based on this post, I bought the full manga in hardback. Thanks!
