I delved way back into the past last week and watched Magic Knight Rayearth and thoroughly enjoyed it. Sure it's a bit dated and silly in places, but it's engaging and good looking and the story turns out to be quite a bit more than it initially seems.

And the OP is epic.

Have you had a chance to look at the Magic Knight Rayearth manga? The art is incredible.

Thanks for the heads up - I'll check that out.

I watch older anime almost exclusively, but with manga, I'm following so many new series and adding new ones all the time that I generally don't have the time and energy to read older ones. But I keep adding them to my TBR anyway...
