OVA: (
Type) OVA = Original Video Animation. These are the direct-to-video anime titles done in Japan. Often, OVAs can start a franchise (
Tenchi Muyou! Ryououki), start a TV series (
Mahou Tsukai Tai!), be a sequel to a TV series (
Love Hina Again), or be a stand-alone title (
Aa! Megami-sama! OVA). Sometimes, the OAVs are named the same as the TV series and thus will sometimes have the term OVA listed after the title's name to separate it.
Historical: (
Setting) Self-explanatory. This should be a title rooted in historical events.
Shounen Ai: (
Objectionable Content) (
↗shounen ↗ai (
愛) = "Boy Love") These are titles in which two male characters are involved in a homosexual relationship or in which one is hinted at. Mainly you find these in
Shoujo manga but some anime titles have them as well. The term differs from "
Yaoi" in that it usually implies that there will
not be on-screen sex. See also:
