For those of you who follow my posting system I don't use numbers, why? Because numbers are my opinion of something. They do not mean ANYTHING to anyone else really.

Forbin's list of funny Acronyms: So what do I post? I post types. Those help describe the anime beyond the keywords

What am I watching now? 2008 Roundup Someone asked me why I hate clones. Was I wronged by a Clone in my current life? Did a Clone steal my money? Hehe. No! I hate clones because it's the lamest plot device ever written.

It's the 'Oh Crap we just killed a main character? How do we save them? (And sell a few more action figures?) Oh I know! Lets make a Clone of them'

See what I mean? If they use clones in the damn anime, how come the people didn't make MORE THAN ONE CLONE? Stupid plot device eh? There are only 3 Animes that I will allow clones. Kiddy Grade because it really didn't slow down the plot, and Excel Saga because it was just so funny and of course Gantz where EVERYONE is a clone to begin with.

10/01/2007 : Whoops, Seto just became my #1. Maburaho is #2 and Vandred is #3.
08/27/2007 : Just a little note that I LOVED Maburaho, it had it's issues but it was the funniest thing that wasn't totally perverted. Well now I have a tie, Seto No Hanayome has succeded where many have failed. Now if it goes R1, it will be my new #1 Favorite. My #2 is Vandread of course.







TypeMore Info
DramaHow important is the story
NoneDamn this did make any sense at all?
LowIt has a story. Not a strong one but it's there
MedThere's a story! And it's Obvious! Usually it's a love story with some angst.
HighMost likely there will be a death of a main character halfway through the series!
Comedy
NoneNot funny at all.
LowA few laughs, but the story doesn't depend on it.
MedThis story depends on it's humor to move forward.
HighPick me off the floor, I'm still rolling!
ActionGuns blazing, Robots stomping, Swords slicing
NoneNo Action, move along, nothing to see.
LowA few hits or fast action scenes.
MedFighting! Usually sword or fist but no blood.
HighBlood! And Lots of it! Or Robots taking each other apart piece by piece!
SciFiThis Covers Mecha, anything techinical as well as Magic
NoneNothing technical, move along, nothing to see.
LowYou know they are talking about robots and cars but you don't really see them. Magic is there and the characters occasionally use them but not often.
MedCar racing or Robot girls are there but not important for the plot. Magic is used but is not what the anime is about.
HighThe Robots are intergral, without the scifi this isn't much of an anime. Take away the magic and you don't have an anime.
EcchiThe only one with 5 levels. Ecchi is 'H' said with an Engrish Accent
NoneEveryone is dressed like a school teacher.
LowMostly lowcut dresses and high cut skirts.
MedMostly topless types. Not very often but they are there
HighLots of Tops, lots of bottoms and some Yuri thrown in.
HentaiSpeaks for itself (BTW did you know the Japanese do not use the word Hentai? They use Ero)
