Hm? K-ON was one of KyoAni's downright worst offenders in appealing to otaku. That anime was not targeted to girls; it was targeted to cute moe and slice of life fans, of whom most of which were males.

If it was a girls' anime, there would be a lot more male characters with names. Not to mention the original manga ran in a seinen (young adult male) magazine.
