Anime & tokusatsu from my childhood

22 Sep

Youtube is a great place to find old anime clips. These ones are some of them that I watched when I was a kid. It’s funny when my friends and I here were discussing what we’re watching on TV when we were kids. Many of them mentioned Mr. Rogers. As for me, I was like “who is Mr. Rogers? I was watching Goggle V and Kamen Rider Black.” LOL.

Gyavan (1982): (my first tokusatsu show. Gyavan is still the coolest! We were always amazed how awesome his dragon robot was)

Goggle V (1982): (my first Super Sentai show. Yup, everybody around my age from my country know what Goggle V is, everybody)

Go-shogun (1981):

God-Sigma (1980): (man, I really loved this anime’s songs when I was a kid)

Thunderbid 2086/Technovoyager (1982): (Probably my first exposure to dubbed anime without realizing it. I knew it was Japanese in origin, but didn’t realize the dub. I never even watch the original Japanese one. The OP of the dubbed seems cooler, thankfully they still use the Japanese music minus the vocals)
Thunderbird 2086:

Technovoyager:

And of course, my first exposure to Kamen Rider, Kamen Rider Black (1987). I didn’t even know that it was Kamen Rider. LOL.

Some of my friends always ask why I keep watching those “power rangers” shows, referring to Japanese Super Sentai (no, I swear I won’t watch any more crappy Power Rangers crap). Well, looking at the shows above, I can see why I still like tokusatsu shows. Plus, now I’m aware that tokusatsu shows are entertaining all ages, if you know what I mean. 🙂
