Aw no Noir? Sad

I wish there was a list of all the anime in the video but it would be far too long. Nice to see Utena and Azumanga.

I recognize quite a few shows, including some that I've yet to watch. I enjoyed many of what J.C. Staff has dished out; here's a Happy 30th! Smile

I was about to say that I'd never actually seen anything they'd produced despite recognizing some of their (mostly older) stuff, but then R.O.D. the TV popped up and made me exceedingly happy. I feel like I should be able to place it, but what was the series with the gray-colored mecha around a minute in?

No Slayers...? That feels like a glaring omission, I wonder if they don't have the rights to it or something.

It also seems like most of their work is from the last 10-15 years, considering the shows that they featured in the video. It would've been nice to see a shoutout to Blood Reign or Tank Police!

Oh gosh I love this, I recognize a lot, I also like how the video slows down for big titles (Honey and Clover for example).
Great memories.....really great.
Lol at Azumanga at the end.

What a fun little tribute video. While I haven't seen as many of their more recent fare, '90s J.C Staff will always have a special place in my heart since I think I saw about 85% of the series they worked on in that decade. Still love ya, J.C Staff. ~<3

Lord almighty. They've made so many shows that I know of yet I had no idea they made. There's literally so many I'm not even going to TRY to list an example in fear of fanboys trying to kill me.

J.C. Staff is not among my favorite studios, but they have animated some of my all time favorites (Utena, Toradora!, Waiting in the Summer) through the years. On technical merits there are better studios than J.C. Staff, but their output is usually consistent.

On the actual video, I think I recognized 70-75% of the titles shown.

Yeah, I did a little *squeee* for R.O.D. and Azumanga, Shimoneta, Aoi Hana, Danmachi, Flying Witch, Heavy Object (I think H.O. is the one of the best). @ Kikaioh, I thought I saw Slayers at 0:51 but maybe it was Excel Saga? A great retrospective and really nice song too, went well with the theme. Some of my favorite shows of all time, so many emotions. Very Happy

J. C. Staff has had good work and bad as well I think I recognize a handful what would be interesting is see if someone could do the same type of video for Studio Deen.

When they showed Index Librorum Prohibitorum there, I almost cried! :'D

Anyway, What I can't believe is that they didn't include Hayate no Gotoku!, anyhow, that brought back a lot of good memories, and that's when you know that you're talking about something big and memorable.
