Well, you’d be mistaken then.

Oh man you are in for a ride, this game was developed because the makers saw the game it spawns from “Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan” being imported a lot, so they tried to make something for western market, you should totally check that one and the second part.

Hunter: The Reckoning

Crimson Sea.

Breakdown was one I loved.

Mech Assult with full XBL functionality is a must.

GunValkyrie
Ninja Gaiden series
MechAssault series
Project Gotham series
Midtown MAdness 3 (One of the most addicting online games)

Black

BLINX 1 and 2, JET SET RADIO FUTURE, GUN VALKYRIE, PANZER DRAGOON ORTA Maybe even FUSION FRENZY, and those diablo-esque games called Hunter The reckoning. actually I am not sure what console those were on.

That’s also Miyazaki and Anno complaint, where they urge the new gen to explore the world beyond anime-manga as newer creator have limited scope as all they consume is anime-manga causing their creation to stuck within the cliche of anime-manga.

Most important tip: play as Daisy.

While American fans of Anime and Manga tend to be one group, in Japan they’re definitely distinct though. Manga is pretty mainstream, but Anime is pretty much for kids and otaku, very few middle school or older kids actually watch Anime. But almost everyone reads manga.

Do you remember all those arguments you’ve had about anime being mostly lost nowadays and fanboys telling you “yeah asshole, well, do something!”? I feel these guys finally had it and did exactly that.

The idea of cheap derivative works in order to chase a market is decades old, it’s just grown in relative quantity because the industry has straight-up grown in relative quantity, and is by FAR easier to access (whether legally or illegally) and keep up-to-date on in the modern world.
