Kid: "Ok, boomer"
Boomer: rips off skin and shoots a laser from its mouth
LMAOO
IMA FIRING MAH LAZAH!!!!
Millennial and boomers rejoice in an allegiance to stop the zoomers.
"There's your "boomer " for ya"!!!
just like a judas priest album
Somehow, the 80s were even more 80s in Japan. Well done.
Look up REBECCA - Vanity Angel. This confirms it.
People were going wild during the bubble period
@@JackgarPrimewhat's the bubble period?
@Uncle_Ruckus_ Japan in the 80's was doing crazy good in industry, and their economy was going through a huge boom. However, due to a myriad of economic issues regarding inflated real estate and asset values, their boom was considered a case of a growing bubble, and when that bubble burst in the early 90's, it brought with it a huge economic crash the country still hasn't recovered from fully.
For a local comparison, the surprise mortgage bubble here in the States, where lenders kept giving out mortgages they knew couldn't get paid in full while also reporting massively overvalued real estate holdings, eventually led to the notorious 2008 crash.
@@JackgarPrime
It got to the point that Japanese corporations, and even individuals, were buying entire skyscrapers in all major cities in the USA. Speculation on real estate in Tokyo was to such an extent, that the land and buildings in the Japanese imperial palace and gardens, was appraised at a value greater than that of the entire state of California.
- How much 80s vibe do you want in your anime sir?
- YES
Of course it has 80s vibes. It was made in 1984
😄
@@ShadowMoon878 considering it was released in 1987, they sure took their sweet time on it 🙄
@@christophersummers1939Quality takes time.
I fully thought this was a joke song in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, not an incredibly deep cut to a classic anime.
The ending song for the episode is the original version!
Right! I was like "damn they really nailed this!" 🤣
Shout out to Google voice search for finding this😂
Love the original BGC. Still have all the original soundtracks after all these years. This particular opening was in part inspired by the 80's flick "Streets of Fire." Look up the opening of that movie - the Boomer here facing off against the cops even resembles a young Willem Defoe from the movie.
@@genghispecan nice, references within references.
In 5 minutes, we are introduced to the characters, the plot, the setting, and the music.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤣😂🤳😭FACTS
In 7 minutes if you watch the anime.
That's good filmaking in a nutshell. To give the audience information in a clear and direct way.
Way better than an info dump
It's typical 80's music video at it's best. How better to setup the story?
An anime from the 80’s about a future where rock music went underground, a corporation controls the world, and boomers are a serious problem. Prophetic!
It predicted the epic generation gap that is the Boomer Zoomer gap.
Millennials and Boomers have to work together to destroy the zoomers.
But considering the timeline and technology... Doesnt that make this generation the future generations' **boomers**?
Right you are!
Boomers were already a problem in the 80s...
80's anime has a certain vibe
That vibe IS anime. The anime the world thinks of when they think of Anime.
Outside of some teens and twenty year olds to early 30 year old Americans, Canadians, and Europeans interested in the modern Anime fads.
Most of the world were introduced to 60s 70s and *especially* eighties Anime from television.
Even more people have seen 80s Anime images in other context. Really 80s Anime is *the* Anime, not some part of a whole.
You've got Anime leading up to the mid eighties and Anime that is post mid eighties.
It's like the Beatles on Ed Sullivan show, you may hold Sergeant Pepper or the White Album in high regard, but for the majority of the human race that _is_ the Beatles.
Marilyn Monroe pushing down her skirt in the seven year itch is more Marilyn Monroe than the real human Norma Jean could ever really be...it's beyond any understanding of evolution.
My mom can identify these as Japanese cartoons and so can a millennials child, but my mom has no idea what she's looking at when you show her about half of modern Anime.
...and when she would know, it would be because the particular work you showed her retains elements developed mostly in the 60s 70s and 80s and were refined mostly in the eighties.
People call Elvis the king of rock and roll because he was called that before the rock and roll we came to know began.
Elvis didn't play electric guitar solos with a distorted guitar..THAT *is* Rock and Roll.
Sometimes the thing in the middle _is_ the thing.
Like B.C. and A.D.
Damn this is amazing, possibly the most aesthetic and creative thing I've ever seen. I can't even imagine the amount of work they put into this video, so creative, expressive, wild, and unique, this truly is an EXPERIENCE ♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏 fuccccccc
90s please
not just 80's anime, 80's EVERYTHING: Music, movies, trends and people!
@Jale The Village Troublemaker hand drawn by humans vs sterile CG crap.
They said it couldn't be done -- ripping off Streets of Fire, Blade Runner, Aliens and Terminator all at the same time -- and then there was _Bubblegum Crisis._
One of the biggest things I miss about '80s anime is the depth. In 5 minutes your immersed in a world where you completely understand the tone and the vibe, which it seems alien yet somehow familiar.
Art in its most visceral form.
And brutally efficent in getting you up to speed on the important things, even if you don't know why they're important just yet. I don't know art, but BGC has always been a personal favorite.
to be fair it was the 80s in the 80s, a 20s anime can immerse you in a 20s vibe and you wouldn't know as you are in the 20s
@@JinnaiT That's the thing. I'm trying to watch new Anime and I just lose interest within moments, or at the second episode.
The older anime (even just early 2000s) really immersed me more and drew me in. It might just be a problem with me, but that's how I feel.
@@crayboxes7731 I keep up with seasonal anime and out of the whole season I actualy watch maybe... 2 shows? 3?
Well said. Oh how i miss this style of anmie.
That is the most beautifully animated sequence of a girl putting on a miniskirt I have ever seen.
I've always loved Priss's look of frustration at trying to squeeze into her top.
Wish I was that miniskirt!
And very accurate.
Riding bean does something similar
I genuinely consider Priss Asagiri to be one of the hottest women in Anime.
The Future is the 80s, apparently.
Would not even complain. Have fallen in love with this style and love 80s rock and metal.
they stole that future from us
80s will be awesome till the 2080s
Yeah, people keep saying that the 80's is coming back.
Still waiting though.
God, if only.
My dad introduced me to this anime when I was 13-ish; I always saw a large painting of Priss on her motorcycle in his bedroom growing up and I was like "oh!! That's the lady that was in your bedroom" lmao and we watched it together and I loved it. For his birthday that year I learned Konya wa Hurricane in full Japanese and sang it to him for fun :) still know all the lyrics
How cool
My economics professor sent this link to our entire class. This dude is cool.
That's awesome!
Coolest professor ever!!!!
Cyberpunk, and especially this, really does comment on economics, if not just visually.
Super professor xD
@@nivriannunezki1095 YES!!!
There is a reason Anime got so popular. And it was because of series like this. The 90's anime was amazing and the bubblegum crisis was one of my favs. I loved the music too.
This person speaks the truth! Bubblegum Crisis is a masterpiece!
So why it was cancelled?
The anime is cool, sure, but it isn't part of the reason anime got so popular. Not in the east, nor the west.
@@matiasfpm Technically it was concluded with "Bubblegum Crash", but there was Lotsa behind-the-scenes drama and industry silliness. You can find out exactly why just by searching youtube :)
@HellWaffen Anime started really getting popular in the late 90s. That was way before the whole woke thing that's been ruining media for the past couple of years.
80s and 90s anime illustration outdoes everything today.
I disagree
@@Dr.HooWho today most animes r loli girls... which is annoying. We will beat those stupid loli
Adam Paula Uh. Have fun beating up children then?
U damn right!!!
@@robertnomok9750 agreed - what the hell happen to anime??
Can't believe that this "It's a boomer" line hasn't been a massive meme by now
It might have been better if Pross had actually said "OK Boomer" at some point... :)
Give it time, it's gonna happen
Damn Boomers ruining everything!
@Youre Gonna Need a Bigger Boat OK Boomer.
@Youre Gonna Need a Bigger Boat "Boomer" isn't made up.
"Boomer" is a reference to the Generation that had it good after WWII and are still with us, as they're all part of the "baby boom" that happened after WWII.
Even though most of the people doing the complaining are younger than "boomers".
I love that Priss and the Replicants is a direct reference to Blade Runner
I prefer this artstyle to the great majority of today's anime.
Me too mate! The best era
I mostly miss the coloring. Now it's mostly pastels instead of these deep dark colors, and it's not even because of the switch to digital.
Me too. And as said. The coloring is also amazing from this era. Love it.
I'm an illustrator who tries to emulate te art styles from the 80's and 90's. The colouring is one of the main requirements to make a cool retro styled anime art.
Me too..also colors...looks more simple...now everything is grafic tablets.
“Modern anime has the cutest girls and the best fanservice”

Man , I'm 19 and love animes like this and city Hunter❤😂.
Flashing back to being a teenager in the 90s and watching this for the first time, it just blew my fucking mind.
For me, the year was 1990.
I was attending the Chicago Comic-con (now Wizard World Chicago) for the first time. As I was going through the various dealer sections, I came across this vendor with a lot of VHS tapes. Not realising they were bootleg fansubs at the time, one title, called "Bubblegum Crisis" caught my eye. The vendor through in the first ep into a vcr and tv setup he had and played it through the opening till Luna was coming out of Hot Legs.
I bought it right there and have never looked back.
This young one humbly bows to the old anime master
For me it was one comic book store that would get monthly shipments of subbed VHS OAVs from Animego. Bubblegum Crisis, Kimagure Orange Road and Vampire Hunter D were among my early anime titles.
I think I first saw this at a con as well, but they were playing it. I had to find out what it was :)
@Lazarus Hernandez Kimagure Orange Road! No there's a series that bring back the nostalgia. I especially love it because it resolved the story with that excellent movie.
Show us the ways sensei!

Same here! The Soundtrack itself changed my life in so many ways, taste of musik, found new frieds who liked anime the same way i do... the clubs i used to visit in my youth.
I still don’t know how I convinced my mom to get me this when I was like 9-10
Explain
Because are parents considered them "Chinese Cartoons", lmao.
Because your mom thought "Cartoon = For kids". I had the same reaction from my sister-in-law when she checked what i was watching: "A cartoon? But... but... It's not for children!" I was watching "Vampire Hunter D" :D :D :D
@@FrikInCasualMode wow that
What an Amazing anime
Was actually one of the first DVDs I ever got.
Priss & The Repricants
Must be a reference to Brade Runner
It is. So is the name Priss.
The whole scene is also right out of Streets of Fire (which also began with a rock concert).
I rike your comment my friend
"He say you Brade Runnah!"
That made me raugh out roud
I woke up this morning and wanted to hear this song only to find out the same day it's been featured in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off!
Bubblegum Crisis was the first show that got me into Anime.
And Scott Pilgrim was the first Manga I ever read.
Crazy awesome day!🎤
I just finished Scott Pilgrim Takes Off and as soon as I heard the music I was SHOCKED! Like oh my god I love this song so much, I listen to it way too often. It was so nice to hear it in another show I also loved!!
@@scriptyshake Absolutely blew my mind to hear this being played on my speakers from another context like this. I'll admit, I haven't been so in love with the new 'adaptation', but it's definitely trying its hardest to win my heart.
I freaked out, and then made my housemate listen to this.
Who knew Old Scott and the Twins could rock?
The new scott pilgrim was an insane disappointment..
We got the original song in the credits 💙
Follow up:
I just finished watching the series and had to re-watch
Ep7 "2 Scott 2 Pilgrim"
Don't mind 37 year old me, having an existential crisis with the uncanny similarities to my life and clearly same taste in music.. I love the new series just as much as the Movie and the Manga
PS: Thanks for all the likes! I have my own YT channel and sadly never got that many likes on a comment before..😅
"It's a Bop, right! Over a hundred views!"
Anyone else lose their mind when this played during the credits of Scott Pligram Takes Off episode 7? 🥰🤘🤘
You couldn’t get anymore 80s if you tried
Wat?
Games4us Meaning if you knew what 80s metal bands looked like this was an obvious nod to them
@@nosfonader8792 This isn't a nod, this was MADE in the 80s. The first BGC 2032 OVA, "Tinsel city" (which is mostly referenced in this AMV), was released in 1986. Now, while the 2010s shows like Gundam Unicorn or Gundam: The ORIGIN are _stylized_ as a nod to the 70es and 80es when most of the UC-era shows were made (even Char's Counterattack was 1988), BGC 2032 IS the 80s show. Only the two last OVAs out of eight were made in the 90s, before the burst of the "bubble economy" made high-value OVAs like that uneconomical.
If they have a crippling crack addiction and/or have HIV than you got bingo
Jem and the Holograms say hello.
this anime had vibrant animation
this is true gem from the 80s although the days of cyberpunk anime are long gone at least in my opinion.
Its all our modern day reality now, except nowhere near as cool
@@bleachno9 good point
Maybe after WWIII they make new ones
@@bleachno9 I think people seeing the rate of progress at the time made them think a lot about how things could be in the future. But once technology slowed down in the 2000's and more regulations came into play, most people realized that things aren't really going to change too much anymore so the theme wasn't as prominent.
@@Bristecom slow down? Regulations? 🤣🤣🤣 Oh god you're one of those people. As if Moore's law isn't still a reliable prediction that has technology constantly evolving. Get the fuck back to whatever hole of right wing edgelord, ill informed CZcams manbabies you crawled out from. 😂😂😂😂
OMG The Clash At Demon Head scene is inspired by this, and then they put the song in the Scott's anime. AWESOMEEE
I had such a grin on my face when that scene popped up in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off.

My Star Fox and Melee meme infested brain keeps hearing "TORYAH HURRICANE!" but still a stellar song nonetheless
As a Star Fox and Bubblegum fan, I did *not* expect to see you on here of all places! I know your art!
After all these decades, still one of the greatest show openings ever.
Why are 80s Anime chicks hotter than current anime chicks? I think there was just a more realistic sense of style back then.
No lolis in sight. They are actually adults.
Back when women in anime were feminine and men were cool af.
Because 80s style and 80s haircuts were more feminine and more sexy in real life
That's accurate.
The eyes while still a bit big, weren't unrealistically big with current anime, that and there's an actual nose instead of bump on the face. In other words, the characters back then are more realistic in the face compared to the current anime characters.
For those that come here from Scott Pilgrim Takes Off..Welcome to the rabbit hole!
Whoever did the edit of the Hot Legs club logo followed by the shot of Priss putting her boot on was either brave, foolish or some kind of genius....
This era just had so much charm and feel that I can't put into words.
This is so 80's I'm sweating hairspray and shitting leg warmers.
"It's a boomer, Leon"
At least it wasn't a Karen
Ok, Joe. Stop being a sheep.
No no, he got the point
The Karen thing is the most inane meme of this year. Why is it that everyone who uses the word Karen is ten times more annoying than the person they’re calling a Karen
@@MeatCatCheesyBlaster
Because they’re posers.
I’m a boomer (Well, born in 1994) since I still call Karens a f*cking Becky, Brad, Miss Ann, and Mister Charlie.

Fun Fact: Priss predates the first published appearance of Johnny Silverhand by one year.
IIRC, Bob Talsorian said that he had seen this.
@@andreytupkalo6986 it'd be real hard to have not seen it since RTG published a licensed Bubblegum Crisis rpg
Johnny Silverhand yes, but I see it as plagiarism of Automatic Jack (William Gibson's Burning Chrome 1982)

@@drsatanrx And I fully agree - but about plagiarism I meant Johnny Silverhand not BGC.
Priss and the Replicants, eh? Somebody's showing their source material, which I heartily approve of.
Nooo, it’s Priss and the REPRICANTS! A “repricant” is a totally different entity than a “replicant”, not at all copyright similar! 😂
Might also be a fact of not speaking/writing English as a first language, to be completely fair to 'em.
Scott Pilgrim brought me BACK here. Never thought I'd hear Will Forte cover this, but such is the world. If Melissa Villasenor covered Cruel Angel Thesis my life would be complete.
Scott Pilgrim so goated for this
Best intro ever...gives you goosebumps...masterpiece...wish we had directors that could make this possible in movies
Sadly the universe could barely contain such awesomeness. If anyone ever tried...well, reality bursting at the seams has a way of warping such attempts to the point where they suck.😢 i know what you mean, though. It'd be awesome to see something like this done in a live action feature.

They hooked him up with a dialect coach. He took it seriously.
The joke sprang from Grabinski and O'Malley's mutual love for Streets of Fire. O'Malley said, hey, Bubblegum Crisis probably referenced this. That gave Grabinski the idea of having the song in that scene be Konya wa Hurricane.
They don't make anime like this anymore.

I remember when this came out and people were getting their first "RAW" bootlegs. You find someone to had something and you traded something good for what they had. When people first saw this they were to amazed. You had a bizarre title, set in cyberpunk future, a rave performance that blew you out of your seat (and still holds up to this day) and then the action starts where you got the city's police department and riot squad is trying to stop some rampaging cyborgs courtesy of the corporation Genom. You wonder what the hell is all this about. Until you find out that Priss the lead vocalist of the Replicants (which is a nod to Blade Runner) is also a member of the city's mercenary force for good against the Genom's cybernetic fiasco. I'll say this that out of the entire series which is laden with 80's synth pop 'Koniya wa Hurricane' IS THE best song on the entire album. LOL!! Gotta love Leon, he loves the music but he just can't get the girl.

Saw Bubblegum Crisis back in college but I'm glad the Scott Pilgrim anime re-introduced it to newer fans. C:
This intro is a homage to the intro from "Streets of Fire", which I definitely recommend checking out. Some of the shots are directly taken from that movie.

I'm from the future, the game turned out to be shit
back when anime was made mainly with love, passion, and creativity....

I remember hearing this song on a homemade CD my uncle gave to me and my family a LOOONNNNNG time ago. Back then, I thought the lyrics were “Party party on a train!”
I am so glad people still watch and listen to this great anime. I watched it when it came out in the 80’s. I do not even need the subtitles anymore. I have all the music related to Bubblegum Crisis on my MP3 player. Thank you for doing this.
Mad Machine is one of the Greatest songs of all time.
Robert McMillan I completely agree with you. The voice actress of Priss sung the song. The other voice actresses also did some singing with other songs.
I have yo admit i know this song only for scott pilgrim XD
Anime from the 1980s and 1990s had a look and feel to them that surpasses the stuff we get nowadays.
I am going to play this song while riding my motorbike in Cyberpunk.
Scott Pilgrim's new band brought me here.
Dan and Arin have a really good taste in anime
Wait what? When did they mention BGC?
@@NEETKitten some danganronpa 2 episode which I can't remember exactly, unfortunately
@@jackmetro7385 Gotcha
god, ive been listening to this on repeat for hours. i forgot how incredibly 80s this was and i love it.

Old Scott
The essence of cyberpunk
Nothing tops this era of story telling and music. I wish these times could come back.
*THAT WAS HOT.*
I cannot BELIEVE Scott Pilgrim would bring me back here. What a fucking world we are living in.
After 30 years, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off sent me back here.😅
Man just like 80s music, the Anime is just so timeless.
3:08 It makes me a great resemblance to the terminator of the 1984 version
They don't make anime cops like this anymore. They were a different breed back then.
Bubblegum Crisis was one of my first introductions to Anime back in the 90's, and this song remains one of my favorite Anime Theme songs to this day.
Hello fellow Scott Pilgrim fans. Good to see you here.
Hello to you too
I can't believe Billy and Jimm I mean the Katayanagi twins produced this
I miss this type of anime
The most 80s anime set in the 2000s I’ve ever seen in the 90s
I miss seeing 80's influence on anime.
how I miss this level of details and quality. even the walls have more personnality than any modern anime's entire world.
YES!! Everything was so well done back then. Drawn by hand, made with care. You could instantly know and feel what was the overall theme of any anime.
@@turpasauna I have an original cell from "The Man Who Bites His Tongue", lotsa care went into that.
@@Akanoyoru That's cool!
I'm so fucking addicted to this opening
