Short: (
Type subgenre) This category contains titles whose playing time is unusually short as compared to the length of standard anime episodes (which are roughly 20 minutes plus intro & trailer).
OVA: (
Type) OVA = Original Video Animation. These are the direct-to-video anime titles done in Japan. Often, OVAs can start a franchise (
Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki), start a TV series (
Mahou Tsukai Tai!), be a sequel to a TV series (
Love Hina Again), or be a stand-alone title (
Aa! Megami-sama! OVA). Sometimes, the OAVs are named the same as the TV series and thus will sometimes have the term OVA listed after the title's name to separate it.
Harem: (
Story/Location) This is a sub-genre of the "
Romantic Comedy" genre. To qualify you have to have a single, dateless, nice guy who suddenly finds himself surrounded by a bunch of hot girls/women who are interested or attracted to him to varying degrees. The male lead may also live with many of these girls.
