Old School vs Modern?

Which would you rather? The old-school anime or the modern ones? I'll prefer the old-school ones, or the pioneers in the genres. Either Shojo or Shonen. I'd much rather YGO, Pokemon and [i]Fushigi Yugi or Fruits Baskets than the newer ones. What about you? Which ones for you and why?

I don't really pay that much attention to the release date. Hyouka is looking like it's going to be one of my favorites and it just aired less than a month ago.

Who or what is he or she? He seems to be like a he though?

Well Hyouka isn't a name, it means ice cream, though the show isn't about ice cream sadly.

Both work, kind of like kissaten and coffee shop are interchangeable.

Same here... I mean it's not like they are separated into different genres depending on their release date.

Though sadly there are people out there who are pretentious and think classic = better.

Not necessarily that eh? XDDD couldnt call him a jerk eh? XDD

Some of the 'old school' animes are better then the new storywise. I could easily say that about the newer modern anime.
The newer anime has better graphics though, much cleaner.

Ok yeah, I've got it... but otherwise, I've got no preference of late..
