- Make up a storyline which involves at least one woman with gravity defying breasts, (giant) robots and/or high speed sword battles.
- Pick a name which bares little to no resemblance to whatever the anime is supposed to be about. Extra points if it’s really confusing. For example, “Bubblegum Crisis” or “Boogiepop Phantom”.
- Make sure to drop in a few lines of dialog which, when translated into any language other than Japanese, will sound ridiculous if translated accurately. For example, “Main screen turn on”, “If you touch that, I will eat your face!”.
- Drop catchphrases or named battle techniques that your fans can shout at random people on the street. For example “giga… DRILL!!!!!”
- Make sure that the gender of some characters is ambiguous, just to make the translators put some of their own creativity into it.
- Add small creatures that make cute noises on occasion and have big eyes. Bonus points if you get it to sit in the afore mentioned woman’s cleavage at some point.
- Make sure there is plenty of love interest between most of the characters. To save on character space, aforementioned woman would do nicely.
- Make each fight more and more ridiculously massive. The only time to stop is when the characters are throwing entire solar systems at each other.
- Give your characters upgrades occasionally, especially in the middle of particularly tricky a battle, just to keep things interesting.
- Make it impossible to sync subtitles to the dialog by making your characters speak insanely fast.
