And this is exactly what I'm talking about. You're grouping people and don't even have the shame to see it for yourself. I've never narrowed my time perspective, yet you use the words of others against me. You can't do that if you're adressing me directly. For the record, of my current top 20 anime, 12 are from 00 onwards.

Also, I've seen most of what you're talking about and some I would disagree with as I see them as derivative works. You see, I'm not talking about what some show has as a single element. I'm talking about about what they actually are. Mitsuki's journey as a singer is definitely the heart and soul of Full Moon. Not some transformations, battles and slapstick.

I am implying that otaku pandering is no one thing. It's not moe nor is it fanservice. It's an anime that is specifically made just for them to feel comfortable about themselves with all the familiar elements they like. Comfort food.
