Message: [QUOTE="LXXXROMonteVIdEOII, post: 171923, member: 274953"] There's quite a few actually. Obviously Speed Racer by Tatsuo Yoshida is probably the most well known of them. But the one I truly love from the old ones is Search Of The Ninja: The Legend of Kamui by Sanpei Shirato. Just like Gundam it gets pretty grim and very real really fast. His main influences appear to be Akira Kurosawa and the particular Japanese veiew of socialism halfway through the twentieth century. Plus his relatively simple and very opaque work in dry pastel colors is presented as a mix between the late pulp and early squiggly line comics set in the old west and traditional Heian art with multiple shades of red, yellow and brown. And just in case anyone is wondering how it looks like. Here's the manga: [ATTACH type="full" alt="R-Wimberly-image-1-550.jpg"]57577[/ATTACH] And here's the Anime: [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ba2VXdrlXoc']The Search of the Ninja[/URL] [/QUOTE]
