I create a world of finite somethings

One of the things I help my former university's anime club with is a Jeopardy game they play every year for Halloween. I try to diversify the categories and answers to cater to wide ranging tastes and to make sure no single person can just dominate because 75% of the answers are mecha related and they heart mecha or whatever. I also try to involve some of the different areas people tend to focus on, whether the music, the studios, the seiyuu, convention experiences, that sort of thing.

When figuring out answers, I obviously try to avoid my own biases and favorites so people can't just assume "Well, he loves x series, so it'll be an answer most definitely." I often just base it around frequent titles that are newsworthy on ANN or Crunchy or the like, but thought you guys might lend a hand.

So if you're up for it, I'm gonna put up a few things. Without thinking too hard on it, give me the name of the first title or character you think of when you see each. If you don't know any without looking it up on ANN or a wiki, just skip it.
