This OAV, a co-production of Animate Film and MOVIC, came out about six years after Raiders of the Lost Ark – and was dismissed as an exaggerated imitation of it.
From about 1985 to 1987, Area 88 was arguably the most prestigious manga and anime title in Japan or America. The anime was in three dramatic OAVs from Studio Pierrot, each over an hour long.
