The lower tier shows have definitely more "fantasy" elements to them, but sure, maybe I was a bit hasty there. My logic goes like this: Shiki = vampires, Fractale = sci-fi, Hourou Musuko and Kuragehime = good concepts gone south (=perceived to be otaku pandering). Higher tier shows like Nodame Cantabile and Hakaba Kitaro had strong franchises backing them up already, then you have realism and shoujo/josei shows as middle tier. Fujoshi and women supposedly were early supporters of this programming block, maybe they moved on? I'd love to hear other lines of thought though!
