The most featured TV anime by the OUT magazine's 1986 issues was Blue Comet SPT Layzner produced by Sunrise. Layzner was the Sunrise's fourth robot anime series directed by Ryosuke Takahahi, following Fang of the Sun Dougram (1981-1983), Armored Trooper Votoms (1983-1984), and Panzer World Galient (1984-1985). Unfortunately the TV series was cancelled at the 38th episode and some of the untold story were explained in the OVA episode released later. Also many notable OVA (Original Video Animation) titles were produced this year such as; Project A-ko, Gall Force, Windaria, Mujigen Hunter Fandora, Megazone 23 - Part II, and MD Geist.
