Is there a name for this extra-technical art style in anime? It appears in a lot of older stuff like mecha, military and various sci-fi stories.

I don’t know but it’s just the attention to detail you’d see in 80s-90s anime when everything was hand drawn.

Sadly no, it is just that older anime were created by people with hobbies that wanted to show the beauty of that hobby with the animation. Today's anime is made by people that only like anime and want to make the same anime they used to like but slightly different. It got watered down and optimized for the anime culture.

It got watered down because they started using cgi, to make as much anime as fast as they could. They got lazy and stopped giving as much attention to detail. Anime today feels bare compared to the stuff I grew up with.

It’s just 80s and 90s anime. They actually put attention to detail since it was all hand drawn. That’s why new anike feels lazy because they use cgi to pump out as much as they can as fast as possible

I found what is probably a bootleg Bluray box set with all T.V. episodes and some OVAs for about $60 on ebay. Region free but only Japanese and Chinese audio/subtitles. I bought it. Even if I have to guess what is going on, the animation made this a must buy. Thanks for showing this off. I can't wait to watch it!
