Looks like an american comic book brought to life in terms of style.  That's not old school at all.  That's bleeding edge stuff right there.

Looks awesome, but when you say Redline I expect it to be about cars and that is clearly not the case. :(

fair enough on it being "bleeding edge" but thats common sense, I never meant tnat they busted out animation cels and drew this by hand.  I was simply saying it looked more like a late 1980's early 90s anime, much like the "retro style" that you said.  I even posted that video of "the contender" which was obviously a direct influence for this.  I have to disagree that "facial structure" and such has anything to do with it as I can pull hundreds of shows that have different art styles out and point out that no 2 look the same.  It's all based on what studio does the animation.  Yes there are fads, much like how all anime as of late looks flat and simplistic like Full Metal Alchemist, but if you go back ten years everything was trying to be like american comics. 

I'm 27 and have been watching anime for 20 years, If if feels "oldschool" to me just let me go with my opinion.  The rampant "moe" genre has killed much of my anime fandom, so anything that ignites the spark I had when I rented Akira on VHS back in 1991 is a good thing.

I dunno, to me it looks like it's about battle death cars or military cars or something.  What with all of them driving around and the missles and stuff.

Me, I was never a fan of the car based cartoons/animes.   They all got old because they were often always the same episodes little variety.   Harder to spice up and change up car races then other things like fights with superpowers and card games where you can just make stuff up.
