[QUOTE="Relique du Madde, post: 5430847, member: 42169"] The problem with "animeN is that there really are three or four systems for those games if you don't cound those tailor made for mecha. Also alot of anime games are based on licenses which basically comes down to "using/modding X system to play Y" BESM was once THE anime rpg. I personally consider Mutants and Masterminds is this systems spiritual successor (see below). Slayers RPG BESM d20 spin off... was pretty much dead on arrival since it came out right before Guardians of Order tanked. Fuzion (a multi genre point buy system created by Hero and R.Talsorian games) but mostly was adapted for different anime licenses. At once point I concidered this system to be BESMs nemesis. Mekton an anime inspired mecha game system created by R.Talsorian games. OAV... Its a multigenre anime system but I have no clue about its specifics. Dream Pod 9 did Heavy Gear and several other games. These games are often anime based and range from mecha (heavy gear) to space opera (jovian chronicals). Im not sure if their games are all based on the Sillohette System or if only the newer games use that. Also I'm not sure if they are all anime inspired (I never flipped through Tribes 8 to check if that was post apocalyptic Anime, which I assumed it was.) Silver Aged Sentinels. A super hero game that exists as the evolutionary step between GoO's BESM and Green Ronin's Mutants and Masterminds due to Steve Kenson's involvement in this game. [/QUOTE]
