It seems to me that this list is a mix between "anime relevant for their artistic and influential value" and "anime relevant for their outstanding popularity", with a very strong focus on the latter really.
When you consider the popularity factor it is not strange that anime like "Shana", "Pokemon", "Yu-gi-oh", "Pretty cure" and so on are there in place of "Seirei no Moribito", "Mushishi" and "Kino no tabi".
The latter are absolutely beautiful but not popular enough by a long shot, sadly.
I'm still baffled like everyone else at "strike witches" and "zero no tsukaima" though. Are they significantly more popular than the plethora of other similar anime that were left out?
