Another example from the 90s. As cost rose, many techniques were created to save cels. A lot of them were very creative. Using photos gave anime a distinct fingerprint. Something doesn't always need to be animated to look good. I'd like to see this done in modern productions.

Gainax loved doing this back in the day. Photography feels like just long gone, these endings and scenes feel incredibly nostalgic, they captured a moment that cannot be recreated. A remnant of simpler times.

I really like it when a mangaka uses photos for the backgrounds.

I love that look. I know Rurouni Kenshin has that.

The ED of Sarazanmai is beautiful and one of the only modern examples I can think of

photorealistic backgrounds in 90s games are such an aesthetic

Love that Gorillaz kind effect, gives them like an authentic "it really happened" vibes to the whole art

it predates the 90’s even. This city hunter ending aired in 1988-1989

Not in the same way, but I think of Kimi wa Meido-sama's Op and Chainsaw Man's Ed 10.
