Modern/Acquired Taste/Parody/Comedy Titles

#
Modern: (Setting) These are titles which have a modern feel to them; the story takes place in the present day (of the creation of this anime), give or take a few years.

Acquired Taste: (Style) These are titles which may take a while to get used to. As such, you should watch several episodes before making up your mind.

Parody: (Genre) This would be a title which closely imitates another title, genre, culture, etc. for comic effect or in ridicule.

Comedy: (Genre) Self-explanatory - a title that primarily makes you laugh.
