Action: Lots of shooting, explosions, and the like. Contains subcategories of more specific types such as Gun-Action, Martial Arts, and Swordplay; see also: Fighting.
Titles of this category should cover the events of a war as significant element of the storyline (even if the actual conflict doesn't get that much airtime). The opponents should be nations at least (alien races, star systems, parallel universes etc. are fine as well); conflicts between smaller organisations would rather be categorized as "fighting".
An example for a real-world war would be Hotaru no Haka, a fantasy war would be Lodoss Tou Senki (OAV), a SF war would be Saishu Heiki Kanojo.

The W.O.R.M. were beaten back but their re-emergence heralds the creation of a mecha unit called the Sonic Divers, piloted by three girls (each of them 16 years old) to counter this threat. These pilots-to-be will have to learn military drill, how to pilot their flying exoskeletons named "Sky Divers", and - how to fight in real battle. |
