My friend from work recently recommended this series to me.  It was released in 1989 and well instead of me giving a crappy synopsis you can read it here.

Main reasons why I like this series: it is hilarious, it has humorous characters, the story is fairly original for a anime, and it is funny to see technology back then or rather the lack of it.  No cell phones! People had to set a time and meet etc.  Uh old CRT tvs. haha.  Oh just saw an episode where the kids were playing with an old school black and white gameboy.  Makes me think of the more recent anime where the kids are playing with the DS or PSP. hehe. I dunno I am weird and I find it funny.  Can’t believe how it it is 20 years old and I love it!

If you have netflix try the first disc.  Now if only Animeigo will release the 2nd season already!

P.S. Animeigo please re-release a re-mastered version of Orange Road please.
