    This anime was god tier, such a great gore-fest.
    >>
    Am I the only one here who remembers the short-live Manga in which the OVAs are based on?
    >>
    >>24045396
    The manga ends on a clifhanger after like 2 chapters. Only first 2 episodes of this anime are based on it. Episodes 3,4,5 and 6 are original stories.

    Apparently, the manga was more popular in the west than it was in its native Japan. Hence the OVAs existing in the first place.
    >>
    The first episode was great 80s gorefest schlock but they get progressively worse with each one.

    >>24045396
    The OVA is not based on the manga. The manga was released in 93 but work on the OVA started in 91 and was planned to release in 93 alongside the comic version but it was delayed until 94 due to circumstances.

    That's according to jp wiki. The official credits also support this view, in particular
    >原作:アートミック
    Original Concept: Atomic
    >ビジュアルコンセプト:トニーたけざき/コミカライゼーション:トニーたけざき
    Visual Concept: Toni Takezaki
    Comicalization: Toni Takezaki

    Source: https://navicon.jp/title7334/
    and https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/ジェノサイバー

    Comicalization is a Japanese term specifically meaning taking a work from another medium and turning into a comic (manga). So that confirms without a doubt that the OVA is an original work and not based on the comic version. As usual, English wikipedia and ANN spread misinformation.

    Damn, I've posted those in the wrong order.

    >>24045795
    Reminds me of how Evangellion's manga adaptation came out on schedule, yet the anime it was based on got delayed by a whole year.

    >Evangellion's manga adaptation came out on schedule
    You are joking right?
    >>
    >>24046055
    What I mean to say was that the manga launched on December 26, 1994. The anime wouldn't come out until October 4, 1995.

    Oh yeah it did, it even included some early material that was scrapped from the anime like Unit 00’s fight against Sachiel that was planned in episode 1

    What could come close to this amount of gore? Sure there was Tomino and that popular scene of that toddler getting his head blown off in space but this?

    Shojo Tsubaki is a contender but it's a tough call. I'd post a webm but I got warned last time I did.

    Dead franchise.

    >>24044758
    I love this anime

    I got it in an old Central Park media dvd that also had Cybernetic Guardian

    I miss old late 80s and 90 super violent anime. I miss the OVA glory days.

    >>24060976
    >Cybernetic Guardian
    Now that's a good anime.

    >>24057307
    No shit it's fucking dead it's an obscure OVA from the 80s, do you think Japan has money to spare for niche franchises?
