Any Oldtakus?

I am far from an Otaku nowadays, being married and trying to go to college can really kill your downtime. But I remember back in the days when Toonami turned youth culture on its head and I loved the old shows, hell I still even make time every sunday to watch Dragon Ball Super.
So I came across some old friends off a very very ancient Otaku (not the SL group) website and was jokingly called an Oldtaku, because I am still stuck in the era of Outlaw Star, Cowboy Bebop, Gundam(all but that SD kawaii shit), Starship Troopers, Blue Gender, Lupin the Third and anything Dragon Ball(DB,DBZ,DBGT.DBS).
So any other Oldtakus on here, maybe one of you Otakus' can point out an Anime or Manga that fits with the themes above I would appreciate it.
(Oh and I did catch the first season of One Punch Man)

Not really an Oldtaku but one of my favorites is Berserk which is an old series that I think you'd enjoy if you haven't seen it.

If you mean "oldtaku" by a long time anime watcher, me fore sure. I grew up on the first run of DBZ. I didn't really like that one though. I preferred Gundam Wing, Rurouni Kenshin, and Outlaw Star. I also recently watched Bubblegum Crisis and really enjoyed it.

Also, Yu Yu Hakusho. Botan is a total babe.

My wife is still a huge fan of Yu Yu, painted Hiei on the wall and is currently looking for one of those body pillows with him and Kurama

Nice. That means she can't complain when you get a body pillow as well. XD

I wish it worked that way lol, but hey she lets me have sci-fi stuff in my office, once we decide on a house the office will become a full blown geek man cave.(cause I am buying an aluminum building to put it all in x.x)

I've been watching anime since the 90s. Now, not so much. Most of the anime that comes out are just boring to me.
