I wish anime never got popular because I’m so sick of seeing posts like these giving it a bad rep.

Anime is like anything else: 90% garbage, 9% decent, 1% brilliant. But modern western entertainment succeeds at about half those rates, so anime is probably about twice as good.
The same year that gave us Neon Genesis Evangelion (1995-96 TV season) produced countless trash.
So you're right.
>Fall 1995
Eva and... Ghost in the Shell, Golden Boy, Gunsmith Cats, and El-Hazard.
You've got a good point, but that's a rough season to use as an example.
Then again, Winter 1996 gave us MD Geist 2: Death Force, so maybe it's not the worst example after all.
Wasn't 1995 also the year FOX ran Escaflowne?
Apparently not until 2000. English VHS in 1998. Original JP run Spring 1996.
