I've seen lots of anime related threads here but no one really satisfies my personal field of research: that is, getting info about old anime on bluray, wherever they are published, with the following criteria:

1) Only anime up to 1989 is the focus here.

2) Edition must contain western language subtitles, with strong preference to English, French, Italian

3) The anime are listed chronologically and the list is split depending on the type of medium: theatrical releases, television series or specials, and direct-to-video products (OVA).
