| # | Anime Title | Score | Type | Progress | Tags |
| 3 | Angel Densetsu | 6 | OVA | 2 | A masterpiece of the body horror genre - make that facial horror... |
| 4 | Aoki Honoo | 3 | OVA | 1 | The worst direction and storyboard for a show about the worst human being ever? Who better than the great and powerful Ishiguro Noboru? TAGS:, Delectably Bad |
| 6 | Aru Tabibito no Nikki | 7 | ONA | 6 | (The Diary of Tortov Roddle) |
| 7 | Baccano! | 8 | TV | 13 | It's been over eight years now since I watched this but I remember it being a heck of a train ride. TAGS:, Dated scoring |
| 9 | Big Order (TV) | 4 | TV | 10 | The very existence of a show like this is a miracle unto itself, and words alone cannot do it justice. TAGS:, Delectably Bad, Shows like these...who needs drugs?? |
| 14 | Canary | 4 | OVA | 1 | It wasn't so much the comedy itself - rather, the show's IDEA of what counts for comedy - that was hilarious. Bonus points for the cardboard cut-out animation. TAGS:, Delectably Bad |
| 15 | Capricorn | 4 | OVA | 1 | This is something I HAD to watch, for the simple reason that it existed. TAGS:, Typical Gibbon Fare |
| 18 | Cat Shit One | 8 | ONA | 1 | I remember being taken in by the well-choreographed motion-capture action. Too bad they didn't make more though |
| 19 | Chokin Senshi Cashman | 5 | OVA | 1 | Because it exists, and also because I'm such a hopeless Toriyama fanboy. TAGS:, Typical Gibbon Fare |
| 22 | Choujuu Densetsu Gestalt | 5 | OVA | 2 | Went in wanting to watch it for the heck of it, came out with a few borderline so-bad-it's-good moments for my troubles. TAGS:, Typical Gibbon Fare |
| 23 | Cipher | 3 | OVA | 1 | One of the most memorably awkward AMV adaptations ever. TAGS:, Delectably Bad |
| 24 | Cosmo Police Justy | 5 | OVA | 1 | Another epileptic acid tab from the 80's - just watch out for those "onii-chaaan!" squeaks though...TAGS:, Retro Rush, Typical Gibbon Fare |
| 25 | Cosmos Pink Shock | 7 | OVA | 1 | Endearingly manic stupidity of the kind that only the 80's could pull off. This is the kind of anime I live for nowadays... TAGS:, Retro Rush, Typical Gibbon Fare |
| 26 | Cowboy Bebop | 9 | TV | 26 | What's there to say? Its reputation precedes it. TAGS:, Dated scoring, Need to re-watch |
| 27 | Dead Heat | 5 | OVA | 1 | More like "Dead in the Water". Doesn't feel noteworthy one way or another - the perfect 5. |
| 31 | Detroit Metal City | 6 | OVA | 12 | Funny enough idea, but the joke gets old and repetitive fairly quickly |
| 32 | Dragon Ball | 8 | TV | 153 | The nostalgia is high with this one - and with good reason. This will remain one of my fondest anime experiences from a more innocent time. |
| 33 | Dragon Ball GT | 4 | TV | 64 | I watched this so long ago that most of my memories of it are blurred now, but even back then it seemed fairly atrocious. TAGS:, Dated scoring |
| 35 | Dragon Ball Z | 7 | TV | 291 | Basically throwing all objectivity out of the window here, but as my first ever anime this still remains one of the most thrilling experiences I've had with the medium |
| 36 | Dragon Half | 5 | OVA | 2 | Slapstick done wrong - let me leave it at that. TAGS:, Typical Gibbon Fare |
| 38 | Eiyuu Gaiden Mozaicka | 6 | OVA | 4 | VOTOMS director Takahashi Ryosuke's modest take on the sword-and-sorcery genre, the show's primary hook is its quirky visual setting. TAGS:, Typical Gibbon Fare |
| 40 | FLCL | 5 | OVA | 6 | I've always found this one a tad too obnoxious for my liking, clever-dick writing be damned. |
| 41 | Freedom | 7 | OVA | 7 | I have to agree with the reviewer who pointed out that the ending tried being way too epic for its own good. Still, decent enough show in its own right |
| 44 | Genmu Senki Leda | 7 | OVA | 1 | Another trippy elseworld OAV from the 80's - except here it's by deliberate design, and actually works as intended. TAGS:, Retro Rush |
| 47 | Goku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei | 8 | OVA | 3 | Itoshiki Nozomu's backstory sealed the deal for me |
| 48 | Golden Batman | 2 | Movie | 1 | And here you were, thinking the 1960's Batman TV series was hilariously campy...TAGS:, Delectably Bad |
| 49 | Great Teacher Onizuka | 7 | TV | 43 | The details are now quite blurry but I just remember the sheer sense of exhiliration it gave off at the time. TAGS:, Blurry memories, 90's nostalgia |
| 51 | Hametsu no Mars | 2 | OVA | 1 | The epitome of SoBadIt'sGood - rarely will you encounter an anime where every scene and every shot is so consistently and gut-bustingly atrocious. TAGS:, Delectably Bad |
| 52 | Hanamonogatari | 7 | TV Special | 5 | A decidedly low-key story arc by Monogatari standards, but a few pleasant surprises make it passably worthwhile. |
| 54 | Higashi no Eden | 7 | TV | 11 | I seem to have erased all memory of having watched this... TAGS:, Dated scoring |
| 55 | Honoo no Tenkousei | 6 | OVA | 2 | A well-animated jab (pun intended) at 70's-era shonen anime cliches. Second episode overdid itself though |
| 56 | Hoozuki no Reitetsu | 8 | TV | 13 | An absolute blast - it's refreshing to see someone put faith in this brand of humour even in this day and age - and I've got to say it's paid off brilliantly |
| 59 | Iria: Zeiram The Animation | 7 | OVA | 6 | Liked the visual aesthetics, which seem to have inspired Outlaw Star's |
| 60 | Je T'aime | 7 | OVA | 1 | ....that was just adorable |
| 61 | Juu Ou Sei | 7 | TV | 11 | Entertaining enough for the age at which I watched it back in the late 2000's |
| 65 | Kidou Senshi Gundam 0083: Zeon no Zankou | 6 | Movie | 1 | A passable UC side-story with some decent tragic foreshadowing. |
| 75 | Kizumonogatari II: Nekketsu-hen | 3 | Movie | 1 | Read my lips, Hanekawa is Cancer. On a side-note, MAL should probably forego silly technicalities and treat these "three" arcs as a single entry. |
| 77 | Kurozuka | 8 | TV | 12 | Works better as an adrenaline-driven stream-of-consciousness experience than an especially coherent plotline - it's there, but feels somewhat secondary to the overall experience. |
| 78 | Kyou kara Ore wa!! | 8 | OVA | 10 | A silly and charming high-school slice-of-life show...about delinquents. And somehow, the slapstick humour works a lot better than you'd expect. TAGS:, 90's nostalgia |
| 79 | Level E | 8 | TV | 13 | I'll admit I'm more than a bit partial to this brand of humour, but it's still a masterclass in confounding expectations and turning tropes on their head. TAGS:, Well-earned 8 |
| 81 | Macross | 8 | TV | 36 | Not much to say here - an iconic classic if there ever was one. Last few eps descended to soap drama though, and could have been condensed quite a bit. |
| 84 | Maid of the Dead | 4 | ONA | 1 | To be fair, this Takena bloke is clearly TRYING to be bad, so credit where credit's due. TAGS:, Intentionally Bad |
| 87 | Mazinkaiser SKL | 6 | OVA | 3 | Apocalyptic Death-Metal Super-Robot free-for-all dukefest that you wish had either lasted longer or had a little more plot-level intrigue going for it. |
| 90 | Mononoke | 9 | TV | 12 | This right here is what Japanese Animation is all about...a masterclass of psychological horror, constructed and conveyed almost entirely through atmosphere |
| 96 | Mutafukaz | 7 | Movie | 1 | Now THAT was some edgy M*F*K'n solid entertainment - or at least, right until it went in for that dreary "supernatural" subplot later on... |
| 98 | No Littering | 4 | ONA | 1 | +1 for civic-minded Jason Voorhees. TAGS:, Intentionally Bad |
| 99 | Noein: Mou Hitori no Kimi e | 7 | TV | 24 | Another show that I've largely forgotten over the years, and couldn't be bothered to revisit. TAGS:, Dated scoring, Blurry memories |
| 100 | Ojousama Sousamou | 3 | OVA | 1 | Worth watching just for those delicious Engrish descriptions alone...TAGS:, Delectably Bad |
| 101 | Omae Umasou da na | 9 | Movie | 1 | A simple and straightforward story that aims straight for the heart - and for once in my miserable life, actually finds its mark. |
| 102 | One Punch Man | 7 | TV | 12 | One joke done right. If only it hadn't decided at the very last minute to attempt at some sort of point with it all... |
| 106 | Plastic Neesan | 7 | ONA | 12 | Slapstick as slapstick should be - the gags come in fast and heavy, hit the spot, and make way for the next one before you can catch your breath |
| 108 | RahXephon: Tagen Hensoukyoku | 7 | Movie | 1 | Not exactly as compelling as the original show, but a somewhat interesting twist to a familiar story. |
| 110 | s.CRY.ed | 6 | TV | 26 | Decently-animated old-school battle-shonen series, watchable almost solely for the English dub's reimagining of otherwise dull characters. DON'T WATCH THE SUBS - I'm serious!! |
| 111 | Sakamoto desu ga? | 6 | TV | 12 | Not exactly reaching for the skies here, but funny enough at what it's trying to do. |
| 112 | Sakasama no Patema | 6 | Movie | 1 | Its earnest attempts at delivering a sweeping and poignant message actually end up coming across as unintentionally cute. TAGS:, See Review |
| 116 | Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei | 8 | TV | 12 | The definitive goodbye to all hope, sanity and one's very will to live...at least you'll die laughing. TAGS:, Dated scoring, Need to re-watch |
| 117 | Seihou Bukyou Outlaw Star | 7 | TV | 24 | A classic Toonami-era thrillride, and one of the few "shonen" anime I've actually been able to get behind. TAGS:, 90's nostalgia |
| 121 | Sekkou Boys | 6 | TV | 12 | Quite silly and even the show knows it - but it forces out a chuckle for precisely that reason. |
| 125 | Shinsekai yori | 9 | TV | 25 | Three years down the line and it still remains one of the most disturbingly powerful and painstakingly well-thought-through shows I've ever encountered. |
| 136 | Tenkuu Danzai Skelter+Heaven | 2 | OVA | 1 | A serious contender for Mars of Destruction's undisputed title. TAGS:, Delectably Bad |
| 139 | Terra e... | 7 | Movie | 1 | I can't honestly claim the story was all that good - but it evokes a whole genre of classical dystopic literature, and feels trippy as hell along the way. TAGS:, Retro Rush |
| 142 | Trava: Fist Planet | 7 | OVA | 4 | A slice-of-life short set in middle-of-nowhere outer space. Basically dope humour, but fun all the same. |
| 143 | Tsukimonogatari | 7 | TV Special | 4 | In hindsight, a fairly competent build-up of tension to the spectacularly underwhelming conclusion that was Owarimonogatari |
| 147 | Venus Senki | 5 | Movie | 1 | A largely generic plot by 80's standards with some good action sequences and mech designs thrown in. |
| 148 | Within the Bloody Woods | 4 | ONA | 2 | Harmless fun, amirite?? TAGS:, Intentionally Bad |
| 149 | Wolf's Rain | 7 | TV | 26 | ...ok this one's just too hard to pin down. On one hand it evokes all kinds of wondrous and dreamlike imagery, and on another level it feels downright melodramatic |
| 153 | Yousei Hime Ren | 6 | OVA | 2 | Like another wise commenter pointed out - who gave this anime cocaine?? TAGS:, Typical Gibbon Fare |
| 154 | Yuugen Kaisha | 5 | OVA | 4 | First episode was bloody ingenious, the others were entirely forgettable |
| 155 | Zoku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei | 8 | TV | 13 | The series' definitive jumping-the-shark moment: from this point on you either love it or loathe it - there's nothing in between. You have been warned... |
| TV: 71, OVA: 50, Movies: 22, Spcl.: 0, Eps: 0, Days: 48.55, Mean Score: 6.3, Score Dev.: -0.67 |
