Great classics can sometimes be lost with all the new stuff coming out. Often these series lack the color depth of newer series, have antiquated phrases or lack the sophistication of plots compared to more modern titles. However, the best of these can still be worth watching for both old and young fans alike. Just as the The Three Stooges and It’s a Wonderful Life are still watched by today’s youth, the same is true for the best anime.
