One of my own...
Sailor Toon - Taking a cue from Saban, Warner Brothers tries to adapt a magical girl show for North American audiences, but uses their own characters instead of the ones in the original Japanese show. "Usagi" becomes "Bunny"... Bugs Bunny. The series flops after three episodes.
And another batch of anime-related titles from Usenet...
From Aje RavenStar:
Hanaukyo Maid Steam - How dirty maids get clean.
Hanaukyo Laid Team - (he didn't describe this one, for some reason... )
Read or Vie - a poorly received modernization of Truth or Consequences.
Samurai Peeper Kyo - another dirty ol' man story.
Shrine Of The Morning Miss - Otaku has overnight guest, builds temple in honor of the achievement.
Sober Marionette J - Otaru realizes Lime wasn't warned in time to stay away from the party eggnog and has to help her recover her senses.
From Chika:
Battle Kipper - A team of girls who sleep through anything!
Giant Lobo - Some big fraggin' bastich with a thing about penguins.
Glove Hina - And, in the blue corner...
Kimagure Orange Toad - A tale of a lurid amphibian love triangle.
Odir - What many folk say when they watch Odin...
Sailor Goon - When Bluebottle says the magic words, Neddy Seagoon gets knee trembling!
Sailor Moron - Mentally challenged magical girls defending hum... humi... guys.
From Jorge A Pratt:
Blue Weed - Because the dancing and chanting that wrapped up Seed wasn't psychedelic enough.
Full Petal Panic - An elite soldier works undercover at a flowershop to protect the girl with mysterious flower-arranging abilities.
Fungrave - Ever since his own partner betrayed and killed him, Brandon simply lost all sense of fun.
Jungle Wa Itsumo Hare Nochi Buu - The jungle was fine... then came Majin Buu.
Kaleido Scar - There's a reason people don't often attempt the Ultimate Maneuver.
Maize: Mega Burst Space - When a girl pisses off the wrong person, she's sent off to a corn field where she must protect a precocious princess with a giant cob-shaped mecha.
Paranoia Gent - Watch as many characters' deep psychoses are revealed after a sharp rap on the head from a cane wielded by a mysterious, stylish gentleman.
Rahxephone - The god-like mecha must TUNE THE WORLD... but first, it must tune its sax.
Segapain - The adventures of a struggling videogame company as it tries to stave off its own extinction.
Slayers: Fry - When the interdimensional barriers are breached, a Golden Dragon goes in search of a powerful sorceress and her companions to save all that is. She gets a kid from the 20th century instead.
Urusei Katsura - Lum and Co. have never had such detailed clothing. Or such detailed fanservice, for that matter.
Vampire Punter D - In a dystopian future ruled by aristocratic football players, only D can protect mankind from their thirst for Gatorade while fighting off temptation from his own football heritage. The sarcastic Symbiote attached to his right foot isn't helping things any.
From Antonio E. Gonzalez:
Gaul Force: Eternal Story - Northwest European barbarains and Roman Legionaires attain eternal life; their antics as they fight over a plot of land.
Princess t.A.T.u. - The Russian pseudo-lesbian music duo find that they are descended of royalty.
Chobites - Cooking program, hosted by Cho.
Dirty Hair - Police duo become legendary for their collateral damage ... and their incredibly unsanitary habits.
Dragon Calf - A strange family forms when a dragon marries a cow instead of eating her.
Hellsink - A squadron of elite plumbers take on the most extreme clogs.
Lonely Complex - Tall girl and short guy seek relationships, constantly just missing the "right one." (actually, that pretty much describes the first half of the real show)
Magic 'busers Club - High schoolers addicted to magic form a support group in their attempts to go straight.
Miami Guts - Fun at a Florida slaughterhouse.
Outlaw Tar - Heroin dealers avoid constant police pursuit.
Sailor Mook - Highly un-PC young mariner stirs up life in a ship.
Sailor Poon - ... Nope, not goin' there ...
