Got 'em all, though I admit I had to guess at one. I'm not surprised that people don't know Louie or Maid-tai as those shows were never all that well known. How the world did so many people not know Mahoro or Meia and their respective series? Those were iconic series in their time.

Was a regular reader of Animerica and Protoculture Addicts but completely missed the Anime Insider and Newtype USA era. Went right to Otaku USA print edition until comic shops stopped carrying it. Now I just buy the occasional remaindered issue or the digital edition. |

@fuuma_monou
The print edition of Otaku USA is still available by subscription. It is likely still carried by Barnes & Noble though I haven't looked lately. |

Am I the only one who thought that a quiz about anime from the 2000's might actually include shows from 2006-2009? These all looked like they came from 2001-2005. No Black Lagoon, Claymore, Dennou Coil, Nodame, etc., etc. And even from the earlier period, where were shows like Monster or Juuni Kokuki or Abenobashi or even Chobits? The range of examples seemed pretty narrow to me.
I only knew shows like Getbackers because we watched ADV's Anime Network service back in the day. If these shows were distributed today, I probably wouldn't watch them now either with the exception of Hikaru. |

Tried subscribing. Had to cancel since someone in the postal system was stealing the magazines. |

 (Though that screenshot could've been from the 2001 2nd Stage season.) But yeah, I agree, though maybe they were going for more challenge by testing people's knowledge of ANN's Most Hated Era of anime, i.e. the early 00s.

Strange, I thought that title belonged to the anime eras past 2005, since that's where I see some people express umbrage towards shows from that time. |

Oo, right in the big fat expansion of the Bubble Era? Now that would be an insane challenge. 
It was hard enough to find anything (legitimately released) to watch, let alone anything we'd remember eight to ten years later. |

Ai Yori Aoshi" and "Oh! My Goddess!" might be the anime that has the strongest portrayal the yamato nadeshiko trope. Aoi-chan's devotion to Kaoru separates her from a lot of other harem female leads and Kaoru doesn't act like a lot of the usual harem leads (excessively clumsy, indecisive on which girl, etc.).

I think that has more to do with the fact that eras really don't have rigid cut-off points, e.g. something from '99 isn't going to look that much different from something from 2000, or differ as much in terms of animation/artistic techniques. Interstella 5555 doesn't look much different than Queen Emeraldas. In any case, I got 9 out of 12.
