Don't put too much thought into this anime. It's much easier just to assume it's shit due to incompetence.

I'm confused by your confusion. The original was done in 1974 and the remake everyone is praising came out in 2012.

Watch the two new movies then start Super with episode 28.

Those Berserk gifs hurt my soul to look at.
Fixed.
Yeah ? my memory sucks way too much
Feels like Ikky should wear Virgo because he was the one who beat him in the sanctuary
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Yep. Ikki wears Leo's Cloth because of his star sign. Shaun is Virgo; Ikki, Leo, Pegasus, Sagitarius; Hyoga Acuarius and Shyriu, Libra.
One of the things I liked about Saint Seiya Omega is how everyone receives new Cloths, except Ikki.
The writers then explained that they felt his Hades Saga Cloth is so OP it doesn't need to change form to go any further
That and female golds. Paradox was fucking robbed man.
Edit: Holy Fucking Shit, Saint Seiya Omega S2 with LatAm dub is airing in Panama, and it has a full recording of Jesus Barrero (RIP)'s lines!!!

Maybe they're just worried that they can't surpass the masterpieces that are the Trust & Betrayal OVAs! Yeah...that must be it.
I try not to think about the Reflection OVA.
Won't I miss out on pretty much all that happened during DBZ?
If you haven't watched Z.
Watch Dragon Ball Z: Kai
It's the filler-less version then follow our advise on Super
I don't understand why Eureka Seven was even loved in the first place. It's a series where they want you to hate everyone and abusing a kid is a form of love.
People talk as if it's the next EVA or something back then. RahXephon was alot better in that regard.

Kai sucks. Half the fun of Z was all the filler-based humor.
I don't know if it's just the fact that it was much, much better than the terrible movie, and that I really was itching for some good Bones mecha anime after I watched Captain Earth kinda bumble around, but I actually liked Eureka Seven AO. It's not up there near the top for me, I may be overrating it some, but I actually liked it.
I was searching for mentions of this one. It was really good! It started out a lot stronger than it ended but it was still good. The first episode, I feel, is basically like the anime equivalent of the first few minutes of Up. Overall I liked Gatchaman Crowds/Insight better but this was very nice.
Tiger Mask W was cool as shit, with the over the top violence and the real NJPW wrestler cameos too. Mazinkaiser and Shin Mazinger Z were both really good too and I'm looking forward to the Mazinger Z movie.
RahXephon is AWESOME! It might be my top for this if you would count it as a revival of Raideen, even though it didn't use the IP.
Gonna have to join the other negative opinions about Rebuild. I mean part of my dislike for it is that it keeps showing up in Super Robot Wars with just parts 1 and 2 and thus barely a plot and no ending, and part 4 taking forever to come around, but like... Outside of looking AMAZING none of the new material is really as compelling as the original and the retreads are basically watered down from that. Also the pacing between the first and second movie is out of whack.

Code Geass S3 is either gonna be the best or worst piece of trash we have ever seen.
If it's not at least a little trashy, people should be disappointed.
eh. Honestly people just like it because it had a certain style that wasn't ever replicated elsewhere. Also these days that kind of long form anime doesn't really exist any more. However anybody making a direct equivalence to EVA is a fool, regardless of whichever series they like more.

It also cuts down on the multiple episodes worth of "AHHHHHHHHHHHH" powering up too.
Though the Piccolo and Goku getting their drivers license episode was the worst cut. Watch Kai, standard Z is too long for its own good now that there is a replacement. The self contained one episode fillers are good, but some are multiple episodes long for no real reason.
I'll watch Kai then and try to check out that drivers license episode.

Didn't know the new Digimon was terrible. Remember people being hyped about it because of Tsuritama? Makes sense I guess, no one talks about it now, and I still haven't seen it but I'm not curious to watch how bad it is.
Be mildly conservative in your expectations and it'll be fine. But the drama burns so many fans souls that it might be a problem if you liked Adventures characterization.
Because they grew up and regressed into numemons.

I hope its so trashy that it instantly becomes the greatest thing that mankind has ever produced.
Its not bad.
Its just people had a big and/or different expectation. I enjoyed it for what it was and the art remained to be beautiful.
I personally, didn't enjoy Tsuritama that much. It was OK and the art was great, but the main story arc didn't anything for me
Appmon is the better new Digimon. Tri is just awful.
