Well, having watched the final episode of GTO, and just *somehow* accidentally bumbing to ANN webpages, I thought
 about filling in the empty 'Genre' - spot at the encyclopedia. BUT...
Now, when I have seen the whole series, comedy IS an important part of the series. There's much more, but nothing that would actually fit completely in any of the remaining genres...SO: In what genres of the list would GTO fit in besides comedy? And please, write some reasons to back up your answers! |

Genre refers essentially to the overiding genres of the series in its entirety. While GTO does have the occasional drama, and often has action scenes, as a series it is only a comedy. A bit like the Cosby Show, it's a sit-com. Even though there were occasional episodes that were serious Drama, the seires itself would never be called "Drama." |

Yeah....now that I think of it.....well, I added 'Comedy' there...you're right. It actually doesn't need anything else there....thanks again!
P.S. But what a comedy! |

It's a bit like Excel Saga. I think we could actually add *every* genre for that anime. But even when those genres are present, they are viewed through the lens of parody. So ultimately it can only be described as comedy.
