Add: Avant Garde, Music
Detailed Reasoning: The first reason why this should have the Avant Garde Tag is how the story is told: it starts as an AMV, then it turns into a mockumentary, then as a "movie trailer", then as an interview, then back to a music video, and finally as a regular drama. All of that happens on the same story and in a span of just 26 minutes. This is unlike practically all other anime that exist.
Second is the part of unsettled feelings, the overall reception of this OVA is really mixed, some people consider it great but some other people despise it, this can be checked on the score statistics, having one of the most divisive and varied ratings of all anime in this page.

As for why music should be added, it is because the majority of the OVA is just music with no dialogue, the story is mostly told visually with no talking.


Thanks!

Add: Slice of Life, Anthropomorphic
Remove:
Detailed Reasoning: The reason why SOL should be added is because of the presence of Iyashikei tag but the absence of Slice of Life nor any other genre. The anthropomorphic part comes from the fact the main characters are anthropomorphic bears.

Remove: Ecchi
Detailed Reasoning: Well the series shows some sex scenes without exposing the genital area, same as the other erotica anime, so I think It's way past the Ecchi.

Add: Erotica
Remove: Ecchi
Detailed Reasoning: If Valkyrie Drive Mermaid is an erotica, I don't see any problem with Masou Gakuen HxH become one also. In episode 4, the MC, Kizuna touches Aine's genital area intentionally. In episode 6, kizuna intentionally performs a cunninglus on Himekawa, uses butt plug and played with it while the Himekawa "climax". In episode 9, it starts of with Kizuna shows the "stats" of the 3 main girls to the boys in the class, the "stats" is basically showing the girl's sensitive spot and the girls are basically nude in the picture on the status then later in the episode, Kizuna undresses Aine, went inside her panties and remove it, Aine is basically nude, then they use the shadow as the convenient censoring for Aine's genital area. In the last episode, Kizuna fingered Aine in public, using the panties as the convenient censoring. All of those were shown in the anime, not just implied or cut from the frame, all of which are way past Ecchi. I'd say this is more border hentai than Valkyrie Drive.

Add: Erotica
Remove: Ecchi
Detailed Reasoning: Main reason was about the Valkyrie Drive which I said above, also in episode 1, Kizuna targeted Aine's genital area, using the scroll to rub it against Aine's private part. In episode 2, Kizuna's fingers went inside Yurishia's bloomers and fingered her while they are airing in a show. In episode 3, Himekawa played with the butt plug tail again, inserts them slowly in her private part. In episode 4, Kizuna and her sister nearly had sex. In episode 5, it shows how Kizuna "installing a core" on Slyvia, which is basically inserting an egg vibrator like thing on Slyvia's genital. Nothing really extreme happened in episode 6.
Because most of the episodes are way out of Ecchi, I believe that this should be an Erotica.

Link to entry: Kengan Ashura
Add: Adult Cast, Gore
Remove:
Detailed Reasoning: In Kengan Ashura, there are multiple characters present who are grown-ups aka adults or older people, and the series also has mature content. Generally speaking, adding the gore tag is justified for Kengan Ashura because it incorporates an immeasurable amount of gore throughout the series with a central focus revolving around outright bloody fists or hand-to-hand combat fights that lead to instances of mutilation, and even scenes where characters spit of blood. Additionally, Kengan Ashura is classified as an anime that is labeled under an explicit violence warning and features characters who are predominantly considered to fall under the adult spectrum on a site called Anime-Planet. Furthermore, it is comparable to Baki in terms of gore as both series are re-owned for their bloody fist fights.

Link to entry: Baki Franchise
Add: Action, Martial Arts
Remove: Sports, Combat Sports
Detailed Reasoning: The Baki Franchise is more accurately categorized as a martial arts anime with a focus on combat rather than a combat sports anime traditionally. Hence, Baki does have elements of various fighting techniques including both kicks or punches, and features tournament matches, the presence of martial arts aligns with the genre because the series features numerous characteristics of the martial arts genre such as hand-to-hand combat, fist fights, kicking, dojos, training, dodging, and slowly encountering an opponent during a fight scene. In contrast to other combat sports anime like Hajime no Ippo (Fighting Spirit) or even Levius, Baki doesn't center around stuff that involves boxing to the extent they do, and Baki is more comparable to series with the martial arts classification such as Kengan Ashura as they both involve hand-to-hand combat and fist techniques but do not explicitly focus on sports-oriented stuff. Therefore, the combat sports theme should be replaced with the martial arts one instead.

Link to entry: Levius
Add: Adult Cast
Remove:
Detailed Reasoning: This show features a predominant cast of adults.

Link to entry: Musaigen no Phantom World (Myarid Colors Phantom World)
Add: Supernatural, Super Power
Remove: Fantasy, Ecchi
Detailed Reasoning: These categorizations for Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World) should be adjusted for the following explanation:

Replace Fantasy With Supernatural: Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World) is more of a supernatural anime rather than a full-fledged fantasy because the overall visuals of the setting where it takes place tend to lean more towards the supernatural genre, and it is a central theme of the series featuring characteristics of the genre such as ghosts, youkai, and spirits rather than traditional fantasy things after all. Although Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World) does indeed have stuff that may appear to be fantastical, the focus of the series places it toward the supernatural genre as mentioned earlier and the description of Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World) mentions a variety of supernatural entities that play a predominant component solidifying it's classification as a supernatural anime. As a result, I believe that it may be more appropriate to just classify it as a supernatural anime.

Synopsis
Phantoms: supernatural entities such as ghosts or youkai that, until recently, were thought to be superstition. However, when a virus that infects the brain spreads throughout society, people's perception of the world changes as the mythical beings are revealed to have been living alongside humanity the entire time. This virus has also affected those of the next generation significantly, allowing them to develop special abilities that they can use to fight against dangerous phantoms.

Haruhiko Ichijou and Mai Kawakami are two of those that were granted such power—Haruhiko wields the ability to summon and seal phantoms through drawings, while Mai imbues the power of the elements into martial arts. Together, along with the friendly phantom Ruru, they form Team E of Hosea Academy, which is dedicated to dealing with these often mischievous beings. In a world where the real and surreal intertwine, they handle the everyday troubles caused by phantoms.


Super Power; Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World) centers around students known as phantoms who possess special abilities that they use to battle against supernatural entities that they encounter throughout the series leading to scenes that offer purely impressive animation.





Remove The Ecchi Categorization: While Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World) does include occasional fan-service scenes, they are typically minimal, tame, incidental, and occur infrequently or sparingly throughout the series rather than being a central focus. The fan service mainly consists of moments of suggestive content and absurd situations, but they are not overly graphic or proactive, and the series focuses more on supernatural battles and character interactions rather than explicit fan service or sexual content typical characteristics of the ecchi genre. In fact, there are a variety of anime that lack the ecchi classification but still incorporate more prominent ecchi elements than Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World) does, and this further justifies squarely the removal of the ecchi tag considering how limited the inclusion of ecchi-ness content is compared to dedicated ecchi anime.

Therefore, the tags should be updated for Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World).

Link to entry: Juusou Kikou Dancougar Nova
Add: Action, Sci-Fi, Military, Space
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Juusou Kikou Dancougar perfectly fits the addition for the action genre because it features scenes that basically involve giant robots battle each other using combat, strength, and weapons iirc this is a typical characteristic of the action-mecha genre, and the categorization should thus be added. Including a sci-fi genre is justified due to the presence of mechanical oriented content featuring robots, aliens, advanced technology, and futuristic concepts as well as taking place primarily at space where the characters are pilots in a ship outside of earth, and then they travel through earth throughout the series to fight off against aliens playing a key component making it fittingly classified to be a futuristic space anime. Finally, war is a central theme of the story as it relates to warfare focused, tactical combat, and strategic plus the plot revolves around pilots defending space from aliens by using giant robots making it appropriate to be considered a military anime.


Link to entry: Great Pretender
Add: Drama, Suspense
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: The drama genre can be appropriate for Great Pretender due to character development being a recurring component of the series, and it delves into complex themes such as violence, personal struggles, redemption, deceptions, relationships, and moral dilemmas that create a compelling narrative plus the anime features occasional comedic elements interspersed throughout the series amidst characters face challenges. Including a thriller/suspense genre for Great Pretender is especially perhaps undeniably warranted because it constantly incorporates a variety of characteristics of the genre that are predominant to the plot, and include things like mind games, tactics, intricate heists, high-stakes cons, and unexpected plot twists that keep viewers at the edge of their seat while experiencing the captivating nature of cat-and-mouse games as well as a sense of danger making it highly deserving to add a thriller/suspense classification to Great Pretender. Additionally, generally speaking, Great Pretender is often categorized as a compelling crime-thriller anime, and is likely considered such as it clearly incorporates prominently into its storytelling. Hence, the for drama and thriller/suspense genres are needed for Great Pretender.

Link to entry: 91 Days
Add: Suspense, Adult Cast
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Adding a categorization of the thriller/suspense genre for 91 Days is warranted because it features an dark atmosphere, plot twists, legit tension, and red-hearing constantly throughout the series making viewers engaged into the intricate plot elements of 91 Days. In 91 Days, most of the cast within the story tend to be adults or older people, and they is only a small amount of characters who are teenagers or children. Additionally, I noticed that 91 Days is categorized as a thriller/suspense anime as well as a series where most of the characters as adults on other sites like Anime Planet which I believe is an appropriate classification, and I feel like I’d have to explain a bit more for the adult cast part. Alright now I’m ready, so, the series delves into various mature themes such as revenge, maturity, betrayal, loyalty, violence, tragedy, and power dynamics alongside the presence of a predominant cast of characters as adults and a serious storyline, contributing to characteristics typical of the adult cast anime category. Overall, 91 Days can be described as a intricately serious action-drama crime-thriller anime, and hence definitely fits the description of an anime that is missing the classification of the thriller/suspense and adult casts tags despite being a series that is supposed to have it.


Link to entry: Kyoukaisenjou no Horizon (Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere)
Add: Romance, Mecha, Military, School
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Romance is central to the plot as many characters build complex relationships with each other and develop their emotions or feelings making it appropriate to be considered a romance anime, and for instance, romantic subplots or relationships between Toori Aoi and Horizon Ariadust is a recurring component throughout the series. Kyoukaisen jou no Horizon (Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere) incorporates elements of the mecha category as part of it’s action sequences throughout the series where futuristic warfare and giant robots occur frequently contributes it’s classification for the mecha theme. War is another central theme of Kyoukaisen jou no Horizon (Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere) as it is centered around a war torn world full of political intrigue, mechanics, conflicts, and strategic planning during combat as well as people using weapons makes it especially fitting to be categorized as a military anime. Finally, the school setting is a major aspect of the story, and the characters are high school students that interact with each other and go on adventures as well do occasional comedic moments happen within a school environment they attend. In conclusion. It’s focus on futuristic combat, politics, and character development along with their relationships or interactions make it eligible for the addition of these categories for the franchise. .

Add: Action
Detailed Reasoning: Summertime Render has a quite large number of battles against the shadows, and the way to defeat some of them involve physical battling. The series turns more action-focused especially in the second half, which can be reflected in the opening.

Link to entry: https://myanimelist.net/anime/721/Princess_Tutu
Add: Love Polygon, Anthropomorphic
Remove: Comedy
Detailed Reasoning: The reason why Princess Tutu is a love polygon is because along the story we see a love square among the protagonist quartet, which reaches the point where one is not sure who are going to end up together or not. The love rivalry between Rue and Ahiru for Mythos is a very important point in the plot, while Fakir slowly develops feelings for Ahiru.

As for the anthropomorphic part, there is a sizeable amont of the cast that are anthropomorphic animals, including the protagonist who is an anthropomorphic duck that can transform into a girl and vice-versa.

As for why the comedy tag should be removed, the series, while it has some comedic moments for relief, it is not relevant for the main plot or the story structure. Princess Tutu overall is more of a tragedy instead.

Detailed Reasoning: Unlike the majority of anime films, the way this story is told is purely by narration, off-screen dialogue and showing of foreground text, in fact, all of the characters in the story are just mentioned and nobody is shown in screen at any moment nor any of the actions they do, only backgrounds, objects and scenarios are shown. This movie aims to showcase a musical/visual experience with as little dialogue as possible, with a focus on the soundtrack. A completely different approach compared to the 1985 film which is told in a more conventional way.

For Ecchi change to erotica, in my opinion this show is literally sold KINK (Masochist) as the series main selling point and other kinks too for smaller degree on mostly side characters, also its very consistent each episodes.

Reasoning: The manga has been published in Zero-Sum Online, an online manga magazine that, although it does not have a perse demographic, is more focused on the Josei public. What's more, Josei works with anime have come out of it, such as Higeki no Genkyou to Naru Saikyou Gedou Last Boss Joou wa Tami no Tame ni Tsukushimasu (a very long title, I know), so I think it would adapt better in general.

Add: Comedy, Fantasy.
Reasoning: This series revolves around the daily life of Akko-chan, a girl who is given the power to transform into whatever she wants... It has a style of humor very similar to Doraemon and has fantastic elements of the Mahoou Shoujo style, so The series has a very strong base in the comedy and fantasy genres.

Add Genres: Reincarnation, Video Game
Detailed Reasoning: The main girl has died and said to be reincarnated into her favorite otome game and is super excited cause she can be face to face with the villainess that she loves (this is for when anime's will be able to be tagged with the villainess tag on themes) so she commonly used her knowledge of how the game works, routes, gameplay mechanics and certain interactions for her in order to avoid or happen during her time in this world

No one has updated this yet, so I'm bumping and adding Anthropomorphic manga entries

https://myanimelist.net/manga/158560/The_Top_Dungeon_Farmer
Add: Anthropomorphic
Detailed Reasoning: The main character is a human, but all other main characters he interacts with are anthropomorphized animals or monsters Teo the Cat Peddler, his rabbit family, Buu the bear and his mom, the Queen Bee and all of her family members etc. The Cat speaks to him and has a human-esque civilization and towns the other animals cannot speak to him, but they communicate through nonverbal means live together and build their farms together. The animals interact with one another and have jobs like human kind.

https://myanimelist.net/manga/143627/My_Gently_Raised_Beast
Add: Anthropomorphic
Detailed Reasoning: The main love interest in a divine leopard beast that has a human form, in his leopard form he retains the ability to speak and his culture has human-esque civilization, hierarchy, etc Similiar to "Little Rabbit and the Big Bad Leopard" that already has the anthropomorphic tag

https://myanimelist.net/manga/123397/Ou_no_Kemono__Enpei_no_Arcana
Add: Anthropomorphic
Detailed Reasoning: The main character is a beast-kin, the plot revolves around humanized beasts.

https://myanimelist.net/manga/129411/Meow_Man
Add: Anthropomorphoic
Detailed Reasoning: The first two sentences of the synopsis should suffice: "When college student Bonnie Han rescued a cat from the rain, she saw only a cute animal in need of shelter. But the next morning, she wakes up facing an anthropomorphic cat who calls himself Claude Cattington the Third, prince of the faraway Cat Kingdom."

Link to entry: Blood Lad
Add: Otaku Culture, Parody, Super Power
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: The series revolves around Staz who is an otaku vampire of the demon world that loves to do evident hobbies related to popular culture within the otaku community including playing games and reading manga as well as his interest in anime, hence all of which are common in otaku culture anime making it essential to classify it in the genre. Blood Lad has a central focus on satire and parodies various other anime’s such as DBZ (Dragon Ball Z) as it utilizes manga industries of the latter franchise, and overall many of the satirical content found in the former is related to DBZ (Dragon Ball Z).



Additionally, the series features characters including Staz who posses demon powers and other abilities, some of whom are definitely references found in DBZ (especially Kamehameha) that are used frequently during action-packed moments making the super power aspect a key component of Blood Lad overall.

Link to entry: Gyakuten Saiban: Sono "Shinjitsu", Igi Ari! (Ace Attorney)
Add: Adult Cast
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Adding an adult cast theme would be appropriate for Gyakuten Saiban: Sono "Shinjitsu", Igi Ari! (Ace Attorney) because literally almost of the characters whom are lawyers including the main protagonist, Phoenix Wright, are adults and older people.


Link to entry: Speed Grapher
Add: Drama, Sci-Fi, Suspense
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Speed Grapher warrants the classification of a drama anime because it has a focus on complex relationships, mature themes, struggles, depth, humanity, and elements of the psychological thriller genre, all of which play a significant role in the series that create a emotional or compelling sense to the story. The sci-fi genre is appropriate for Speed Grapher due to the presence of genetic modifications, technology, and a premise of a photographer who has a supernatural ability to deal with anything by using his camera, are key factors of the show. Finally, including a suspense genre is justified for Speed Grapher as it relates to complexity and tension as well as action-packed scenes plus a psychological theme (common for most suspense anime) being listed makes it fitting within the genre.

Link to entry: Mnemosyne: Mnemosyne no Musume (Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne)
Add: Drama, Mystery, Suspense, Adult Cast, Detective, Psychological
Remove:
Detailed Reasoning: Let me put the explanation of these 3 pars altogether:

Firstly, Drama and Adult Cast: Mnemosyne: Mnemosyne no Musume (Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne) has a significant focus on psychological drama and dark themes that include complexity, sexism, trauma, morality, life, death, paste, and mental states of the characters. Additionally, the series features many characters who are mature in their appearances and sense. Therefore, Mnemosyne: Mnemosyne no Musume (Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne) is appropriate to classify as a drama and adult cast anime.

Secondly, Mystery and Detective: The protagonist, Rin Asogi, is a private immortal detective who investigates complex cases and uncover secrets by using her ability to navigate through requirements in her detective work which are key aspects to the plot.

Finally, Suspense and Psychological: Mnemosyne: Mnemosyne no Musume (Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne) can be categorized as a psychological-thriller anime due to it’s prominence of non-consensual relations (I mentioned a multitude amounts of such earlier) and emphasis on twists, intensity, and tension, all of are hence characteristics common in the genre.

Overall, these categorizations for Mnemosyne: Mnemosyne no Musume (Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne) are subtle, and a description is that the show is an gory adult sci-fi supernatural-horror action-drama mystery-detective psychological-thriller anime.

Link to entry: Afro Samurai
Add: Adult Cast, Martial Arts, Seinen
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: The adult cast tag is fitting for Afro Samurai cause the characters predominantly are older in appearance theirselves, and the series has a focus on mature themes. In Afro Samurai, there are ninjas, dojos, masters, training, and sword fighting styles, all of which are common in a martial arts genre making it appropriate to be categorized as a martial arts anime. Finally, the seinen demographic should be added to Afro Samurai because it was based on a seinen manga published in Nou Nou Ha, and another thing is that the manga entry needs to be consistent with its classification right now.

Each segment features a parody or reference to a particular series or genre, for example RPGs, Noir films, etc.

Add: Mystery, High Stakes Game
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Bokura no (Bokurano) can be classified as a mystery anime due to it’s focus unraveling truths surrounding games that the children play throughout the series that create intrigue. Additionally, Bokura no (Bokurano) itself is about a man who created a game that the children a forced to participate in and the presence of this game leads to high stakes tension, conflicts, and people trying to survive aligning with the high stakes game theme.

Link to entry: Zetman
Add: Adult Cast, Super Power
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Zetman features numerous characters who are adults including the protagonist, Jin Kanzaki, and the series should have the super power tag added because the anime itself aligns with the super power genre for several reasons. Firstly, the premise is about Jin who posses the power to transform into a superhuman being known as ZET, and he battles monstrous beings known as Players by using this ability throughout. Secondly, Zetman is a superhero and action sci-fi oriented anime which are genres that often have a focus on super-powered themes. Finally, Zetman is similar to other anime with the super power categorization such as Kyoushoku Soukou Guyver (Guyver: The Bioboosted Armor) as they are both action-packed sci-fi superhero anime that involve a focus on the protagonist possessing a power to transform into a superhuman being, and battle monstrous psyches by using this ability. Therefore, classifying Zetman as both an adult cast and super power anime is appropriate overall.


Link to entry: Texhnolyzhe
Add: Avant Garde, Mystery
Remove: Action
Detailed Reasoning: Texhnolyze undeniably warrants the addition for an avant garde genre categorization due to it’s slow paced storytelling, unconventional narrative style, abstract themes, and experimental visual storytelling. The series delves into philosophical and existential themes that make it a thought-provoking anime as well. As for a mystery classification, adding a mystery tag would be appropriate because it is a prominent aspect to the plot as it has a focus on uncovering dark secrets and truth surrounding the city of Lux within the story. Regarding the removal of Texnolyhze’s action categorization, the action scenes in the show are not meant to be utilized for entertainment contrasting with how they are portrayed in series that are appropriately classified in the genre. Instead, the action scenes in Texnolyhze for impact and psychological depth rather than being used constantly or to excite viewers. Hence, it is justified to consider Texnolyzhe as a avant garde and mystery alongside being a sci-fi drama and psychological-thriller anime rather than a purely action one.

Link to entry: Terra Formars
Add: Adult Cast, Super Power
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Terra Formars predominantly features characters who are adults in their ages and appearances making it fitting to be categorized as a adult cast anime. Additionally, the series revolves around a group of people known as “The Annex I Team”’ whom are genetically modified and posses superhuman powers to battle against giant cockroaches known as Terraformars.

Link to entry: Terra e… TV (Toward the Terra)
Add: Super Power
Detailed Reasoning: Terra e… TV (Toward the Terra) should have a superpower tag added because the presence of superpowers literally are a central theme in the plot. The series involves characters within a space system known as Terra who posses psychical abilities that they are blessed with by a super computer. Additionally, Terra e… TV (Toward the Terra) is already often categorized as a superpower anime further making it appropriate to be classified as one on MyAnimeList.

Detailed Reasoning: The story features characters who are supervillains in their 30's+ with adult situations and are in adult problems, with an Ocean's Eleven-esque plot revolving around gathering enough supervillains to steal from or without the approval of an organized crime cabal called the Network. It also heavily features the negligence of supervillains and superheroes in properly controlling who happens to be in the crossfire, with a bit of dark comedy leaning on just how brutally multitudes of normal citizens just minding their business might end up being negligently offed. Also, there is a villain whose superpower is literally making people's heads explode, and there are two characters whose superpowers involve bodily regeneration that utilize it in ways that can be described as body horror.

Link to entry: Top Secret: The Revelation
Add: Suspense, Adult Cast, Organized Crime
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Categorizing Top Secret: The Revelation as a crime thriller that has characters who are adults alongside it’s current psychological detective-mystery classifications would be relevant. Firstly, the presence of a psychological theme justifies including the genre suspense, and the series can be fittingly classified as one due its focus on tension, mystery, twists, and complexity. Secondly, Top Secret: The Revelation predominantly features characters who are older people rather than purely children or teenagers at all, making it subtle for this theme. Finally, Top Secret: The Revelation can be categorized as an organized crime anime because it involves an advanced technology world where detectives investigate cases, victims, and criminal organizations.


Thanks!

Link to entry: Soukou no Strain (Strain: Strategic Armored Infantry)
Add: N/A
Remove: Ecchi
Detailed Reasoning: Soukou no Strain (Strain: Strategic Armored Infantry) should have the ecchi genre listed removed for a number of reasons honestly. Firstly, while this show does feature occasional fanservice scenes, they often occur spasmodically or infrequently rather than being central to the plot contrasting with general ecchi anime where fanservice plays a much more prominent role. Secondly, they are other anime without the ecchi classification that tend to have more fanservice in comparison to Soukou no Strain (Strain: Strategic Armored Infantry) further makes it inconsistent to classify Strain under the ecchi category. Lastly, Soukou no Strain (Strain: Strategic Armored Infantry) doesn’t even emphasize erotic-ness in contrast to how traditional ecchi anime usually do, and it instead has a more serious tone as well does it focuses more on mecha battles and character development rather than explicit fanservice or erotic content. Therefore, it is generally justified to obliterate the ecchi categorization from Soukou no Strain (Strain: Strategic Armored Infantry) as it provides inconsistency of the anime’s content.

Link to entry: Mardock Scramble
Add: Drama, Mystery, Suspense, Adult Cast, Gore
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: Mardock Scramble has a focus on psychological-drama as it delves into many emotional and intense themes that include trauma, depth, depression, and mental illness which are central to the plot. The series revolves around Rune Balot, who frequently investigates and uncovers hidden truths as well as dark secrets surrounding the dangerous world of corruption and criminal city. Adding a suspense tag to Mardock Scramble is warranted due to the presence of a psychological category listed hence is already relevant due to it’s emphasis on tension, twists, high-stakes conflicts, complexity, and various dangerous navigations through action scenes keeping viewers engaged. In Mardock Scramble, the characters are predominantly adults minus Rune who’s a teenager in contrast to the former, but it should still be appropriate to classify as a adult cast anime and it incorporates mature-ness as well. There is also a significant amount of gore present in Mardock Scramble featuring brutality, injuries, mutilation, and sexual assault/torture plus it’s known for it’s dark tone, graphic violence, and mature content making it a felicitous franchise to categorize as gory. Therefore, Mardock Scramble can be appropriately classified as a gory/mature cyberpunk action-thriller and psychological-drama anime based on the explanation I provided.

Add: Sci-Fi, Historical
Remove: N/A
Detailed Reasoning: For Sci-Fi, this series is a Sci-Fi show through and through. The entire main premise centers around time travel, a long-established Sci-Fi concept and major type of Sci-Fi plot. Time travel itself is currently already acknowledged as the sole theme. There is talk of and scenes involving time travel, hyperspace, spacetime distortions, past travel, future travel, and accompanying theoretical SF terminology related to time travel throughout. The main characters work for a futuristic body called the "Time Patrol" which itself is in the title (abbreviated as TP), possess time machines, other futuristic technology, and can alter past events and history based on their actions.

Regarding Historical, the main characters use their time travel machines/vehicles to travel back to real historical time periods and locations in nearly every episode, which the episodes revolve around. The historical settings are the main settings of the episodes in question, including Ancient Egypt, the Battle of Okinawa in 1945 toward the end of the Pacific War, medieval France, the age of dinosaurs, Ancient Crete, Tombstone Arizona of the old Wild West in the 1800s, and more.
