90s Anime Memes for OG Otakus Who Grew Up with Goku and Usagi on Toonami

Welcome, anime fans and stans. We otakus have it easy nowadays when it comes to watching anime. There are all sorts of online streaming services that offer pretty much any anime from any time period at the simple click of a button. Even Netflix has a great selection of Japanese animation to choose from in a ton of different languages. This has largely helped in normalising the medium, and anime fans are no longer perceived to be weirdos. Popular clothing stores are selling their own anime merch, Grammy winners are making music with anime references, and you overheard your boss talking about Chainsaw Man the other day in the break room.

The anime fans of the 90s remember the struggles of the past. They grew up watching what Toonami had to offer, but if they wanted more, they had to search harder for it. They watched fan subs and dubs, downloaded 360 p episodes off the web, and thanked the heavens when their local Blockbuster actually had a VHS of Cowboy Bebop. If this was you, scroll down for memes.
