Finally, a "What have you watched/read?" meme I can really participate in!

[tsukikage]

Go through the list and check off the titles you have watched. For our purposes, "watching" a title means that for TV and OVA series, you have to have seen at least one episode. For one-shots, you have to have seen the whole thing. At the end of each genre/category, add up your sub-total. At the very end, add up the sub-totals to come up with your grand total. If your grand total is 80 or over, congratulations -- you are an obsessive anime watcher!

An Editor's Note: not all the titles listed here are great, and some are even steaming piles of crap. Titles on the list are here because they are either 1) genuinely good, 2) insanely popular, 3) good examples of the genre, or 4) just plain notorious. Good anime obsessives should be able to watch series with any of those qualities.

Wow, there's some pretty old stuff in here. ^^ And I'm surprised at some of the things you haven't seen. :P

[tsukikage85.livejournal.com]

What in particular (are you surprised I haven't seen)?

[anchan218.livejournal.com]

La Blue Girl! (Just kidding)

Actually it's Lodoss War and Porco Rosso.

[tsukikage85.livejournal.com]

I've been wanting to see Porco Rosso for a while now... I think I have it in my Netflix queue, actually.

[aikachi.livejournal.com]

I need to make you watch more Detective Conan :P

Seriously, there are so many episodes, they have a different facet of Japanese culture in each one, you learn a lot, like about festivals and such. There's even one specifically about the inner workings of a revolving sushi restaurant C: And then there is of course the occasional kansai-ben <3 (most shows either don't feature it or only use the 'ya' part to show the character's accent. Heiji is authentic)

and why haven't you seen chobits yet? D:

I scored a 63

There's even one specifically about the inner workings of a revolving sushi restaurant C:
Mmm, geeky. :)
Why haven't I seen Chobits yet... I guess the simple answer is I haven't had the opportunity to. But it is on my Netflix queue.
