It's not even nostalgic boomers, it's newfags pretending to be oldfags because they've seen a couple of the "greatest hits" from that era which is why they only ever talk about the same fucking 30 or so TV anime, films, and OVAs in their old good new bad circlejerk.

I've seen nostalgic boomers do it too.

It was a better time to be a fan because everyone were watching the same shows and were thus able to discuss and appreciate their respective qualities.

Something tells me westerners weren't watching Maple town and were likely just watching DIRTY PAIR. BUBBLEGUM CRISIS. AKIRA.

>>286444063
Anime peaked between 1998 and 2008

>>286444183
They were watching what was on TV because getting shows yourself was basically impossible unless you knew a guy who knew a guy.

I dont know about them 3rd world holes but mapletown came on nickelodeon back then iirc.

>>286444063
it was better in the 70s
80s and 90s were trash

>>286444183
my parents watched Mazinger Z and Heidi as kids
I grew up with Maya the Bee and Vicky the Viking
"westerners" is more than the US

>>286444063
the best era is now because we have every previous era available

>>286445564
what this really means is that the best era is some time in the future where everything is available and we haven't gone too far down the internet censorship hellhole yet to stop it from happening

>less shows
>That means every anime made in the 80s had to be much better on average to make up for the quantity gap
holy retard

Most people don't actually watch the 80s anime they are glazing. They just watch the 15s tiktok of the best scenes.

>>286444063
Anime started going to shit after 2011

>>286444063
Golden age of anime was from 90s to early 2010s. It died when the internet truly became widespread among most of the population.

There was a period where stuff like Tetsujin 28 and Speed Racer aired on major networks but heavily rewritten
But that's like, actual boomer territory not "lol let's call everyone over 25 a boomer"

The best shows are from the 70s, but the 80s still have plenty of what made those great. It's the second best decade for shows.
