One thing I hate to hear about people may said about an anime where 90% of the characters are female, especially teenage girls and they quickly thought it going to be moe or ecchi "craps". How "crappy" is Taishou Yakyuu Musume for example? TYM is one of the few shows that isn't ends up as neither moe(except perhaps for Koumei though but she acts just like a normal 14-years old girl) or ecchi crap. Expect no bouncy breasts and pantyshots in that show. Despite all that it also quite obvious that the show's main target audiences are 20-something men and this can be explain with marketing alone, as it may sell better as seinen than shoujo or josei, as it lacked of romance(and most likely bishies). However in the West, outside the internet in can be considered as a failure for lacking any 'commercial values'.
