the animation really starts to suck at one point, where a bunch of attacks are pretty much just slideshowy(i mean that you don't actually see characters doing anything while attacking, they're just suddenly in a mid-attack pose)

yeah maybe at the punk hazard arc but the animation is getting progressively better.

[Ticonderoga]

Um... so I'm actually just now starting Cowboy Bebop...

But, what exactly IS a "bebop"

Wow he sounds like the toonami guy

[TerraFirma]

Okazaki Tomoya is a delinquent who finds life dull and believes he'll never amount to anything. Along with his friend Sunohara, he skips school and plans to waste his high school days away.

One day while walking to school, Tomoya passes a young girl muttering quietly to herself. Without warning she exclaims "Anpan!" (a popular Japanese food) which catches Tomoya's attention. He soon discovers the girl's name is Furukawa Nagisa and that she exclaims things she likes in order to motivate herself. Nagisa claims they are now friends, but Tomoya walks away passing the encounter off as nothing.

However, Tomoya finds he is noticing Nagisa more and more around school. Eventually he concedes and befriends her. Tomoya learns Nagisa has been held back a year due to a severe illness and that her dream is to revive the school's drama club. Claiming he has nothing better to do, he decides to help her achieve this goal along with the help of four other girls.

As Tomoya spends more time with the girls, he learns more about them and their problems. As he attempts to help each girl overcome her respective obstacle, he begins to realise life isn't as dull as he once thought.

are all the over-the-top trigger animes good because they are 90s and we are just being weird and nostalgic or are they good and their 90s-ness is just a footnote

They are good.
Though I don't mean that like anything with a 90s artstyle is good because that's just stupid, I mean known good shows like TTGL.

Aka no it's not nostalgia.

I prefer them over every lolicon waste your life highschool. However everyone has their preferred tastes and they produce more of what people want to see at the time. In the 90's it was action animes, today it is slice of life.
