Aria #1, Code Geass R2 9/10, Mnemosyne-Spice And Wolf-Mai Otome rated above 8.....*switch off*

Is this list based on the idea 'it's so bad it's good'?

Then again, it has Kurenai and Alison & Lilia in the 20 so it isn't all bad.

I've only been watching Code Geass R2 and it's definitely worthy of being up there. :D

Dammit, I just can't seem to find my RAGE.jpg. You'll just have to imagine it here.

If trolling isn't a bannable offense I propose it should be. 8)

I really wish a group would start subbing Porfy no Nagai Tabi.... They really don't like doing Nippon Animation World Theatre titles.... None of them ever went on with Les Miserables....

Okay little noob, one rule of thumb here is not to ask questions like that. It will only lead to pain and suffering.

Is this the part when I hang my head in shame for not only recognising the majority of these titles but have also watched episodes from at least half of the list?
Time to get opinionated and give my impression of the updated list. Comments correspond to list.
1. Pretty
2. Melodramatic awesomeness.
3. Sports anime, therefore haven't seen.
4. On playlist, 'nuff said
5. Animation too avant-garde for my tastes.
6. Seems interesting, but yet to find time to watch.
7. Would be on playlist if decent enough subs could be found.
8. Makes learning about economics enjoyable.
=9. I wish I could put this on the playlist, but it's too risque to risk.
=9. Not even going to watch.
11. Lack of subs make this impossible to give an opinion on.
12. So much better than Mai-Hime, you have trouble with the concept of them being related.
13. Fun to watch. great artwork.
14. Books and guns, I can die happy now.
15. Yet to find time to watch.
=16. Yet to find time to watch.
=16. Good but starts slow, should get faster after episode 7.
18. Cute, but I have no idea why a show aimed at small children is so popular, seriously a clock showing the time of morning when aired is in the corner of the screen.
19. Haven't watched.
20. Starts off slow, good characters but seems a little preachy about war.
