A point in a recent discussion inspired me to look this up.
I almost put it in the community section because there's not much to discuss or the General anime section but despite this being more of a helping/inquiry section I figured this would be the place. And it's probably been discussed before. Ladies and Gentlemen... The first 10 titles in the ANN encyclopedia: #1- Angel Links (TV) anime#1 #2-Apocalypse Zero (OAV) anime#2 #3- Nasu: Summer in Andalusia (movie) anime#3 #4- Gatchaman (TV) anime#4 #5- Battle Skipper (OAV) anime#5 #6- Aeon Flux (U.S. TV) anime#6 #7- Blood: The Last Vampire (movie) anime#7 #8- Blue Seed (TV) anime#8 #9- Bondage Queen Kate (OAV) anime#9 #10- Geno Cyber (manga) anime#10 I didn’t really have anything to say about this other than... what an odd assortment! I have to wonder how these were determined to entered first. I assume a bunch were prepared at the same time and maybe entered en masse and these these just happened to get assigned the first numbers for some reason. Although, after that original point in the Boondocks thread I looked up Aeon Flux and soon after I was looking at the directory and realized something was missing... Didn’t we used to have a category in the encyclopedia for these non-Japanese/ Anime related shows? I couldn’t find it. They don’t show up in the regular #,A-Z directory, so you can only find something like Aeon Flux or My Beautiful Girl, Mari by knowing what you’re looking for and doing a search. |

I would assume alphabetical order, but with some titles it was probably by something other than their current default title (for instance "Battle of the Planets" rather than "Gatchaman"). |

That's what I recall Dan42 stating, though I can't find the specific post.
We still do, but it was hidden to cut down on the number of submissions to it: Encyclopedia - Not anime but related |

For the record, there were two sites particularly important at the beginning of the Encyclopedia: Richard Llewellyn's Animated Divots hosted on Iowa State University (and became an independent site after 2006), and Chronological list of Television Anime by Curtis H. Hoffmann and Gabriel Pinzón on espanol.geocities.com. Both sites are down and require Internet Archive to access.

So Hoffman / Pinzón have moved the site to a Hungarian host. |
