How can anyone stand to play a game with such fugly character designs? Did anime faggots really have such low standards in the 90s?

Whoever did this picture was clearly a young person who didn't watch that many stuff from before he was born.

Worst part is: Saber Marionette J only started getting popular in the west in the 2000s, and it's from the late 90s anyway.

It's just saber marionette J. There was more anime than Saber Marionette in the 90s, and Saber Marionette was late 90s and westerners only got to know it in the 2000s.
Not representative of the decade.

00s was worst decade ,other than 10s.

I was re-watching SBJ from old VHSs I had recorded from Locomotion recently.
It's really fun, and the opening and ending was also great, doesn't get more 90s anime than Megumi Hayashibara.

But yeah, assuming all 90s anime looked like SBJ is stupid, as other anon already said, Saber Marionette is late 90s.

I didn't meant to say DB is from the 90s (although it was popular in the 90s outside of Japan - well except the US that got DBZ fever late in the 2000s).
I just used Tao Pai Pai as a reaction image.

I know I would be crucified for this but trasure's art is terrible in general. They make phenomenal games but their art is pretty bad. The only game by them with original designs I find tolerable is sin and punishment.

Their games are great though, don't let that ruin them for you.

The classic "Treasure style" is HAN, many people love him, but others don't. I'm more on the love side, I think he's a good artist but I can understand how some might feel he's too "uguu". I pity the people that grew up with these kind of misconceptions about anime and manga, through memes, instead of actually experiencing them without previous conceptions.
I played Gunstar Heroes and Mischief Makers back then, and while I noticed the characters looked japanese-y, I didn't think of them as "anime", they were just vidya, like Mega Man.
The character designer for S&P was another guy, not HAN.

Not hispanic, but had Locomotion with a mix of brazillian and sometimes spanish shit, so we got stuff like
>Ranma, Soul Hunter, Blue Seed, Silent Mobius, Boogiepop Phantom, Cyber team(it was something about lolis like sailor moon), etc
>Ova, movies or specials on weekends like Birdy, City Hunter, Dirty Pair, Gunsmith Cats, Pia Carrot, Aika, Labyrinth of Flames and Oh my Whores
>and shit like Bob and Margaret and South Park

>Can switch between new and original Saturn graphics
>12 player VS mode with online
>Can check the characters movelist from the pause menu
>Can switch between a new gameplay style (Which plays more like those DS Bleach fighters) and the original Saturn gameplay mechanics
>New script (It takes itself less seriously than the original Saturn translation)
>Can skip cutscenes
>It's only $5

Only flaw I can think of is that there's no debug code

But every character design should be made so I want to fuck it. If I don't want to fuck it, it's too ugly and the character designer sucks. I can't get it up for any Treasure characters so by default all their games are trash.

The style is really cartoony so it's really going to be hit or miss, but I agree about people having certain design preconceptions. Especially for stuff aimed at kids it was totally okay to have really idiosyncratic almost goofy looking character designs. I'm not actually sure whether that's good or bad.

I think shows like Tenchi Muyo, Slayers, and the Rurouni Kenshin TV series probably represent "generic 90s anime style" the best. But there was also that "dark color palette with high-contrast highlights" look, so you could go with that too. But really, there was a lot of diversity, and that first image's inability to get it right just showcases that fact.

I'm guessing you weren't live or too young to experience the real meteoric rise of DBZ in the 90s alongside Sailor Moon.

>>4019757
Yeah, but not from the pause menu if I recall you could check from the options menu in the Saturn version

I knew DBZ had a few editions on video in the US in the late 90s, but it was kept to a niche audience (that would pay money to see animu).
I also know Harmony Gold (who did Robotech in the 80s) tried to bring Dragon Ball over to the US, although changing goku's name to Zero among other things, it aired on a few channels but it was only the first 10 episodes and it didn't catch.
Correct me if I'm wrong (because I'm not from the US) but I believe the real "dbz fever", that is, when it actually got popular, was in the 2000s, with Toonami.
DB and DBZ were already huge hits before in the 90s in Europe and latin america (and asia of course)
