Rules and Regulations for Directing an Anime or Writing a Manga
Rule 1: The Intro
As Stated by the Anime Gods up above, the anime must have the main characters running in some form or way in the intro.
Rule 2: Enter the Protagonist: Male
In some form or way, the main protagonist, if male, must meet the standard of making himself look like a pervert by accidentally groping the main female protagonist in their first meet. Also, you can choose from these assortments of main male protagonist's templates.
The Clueless Jerk Guy
The Generic Male Protagonist
The Glutton
The Orphan
The Tragic Backstory
The Simply Clueless
Edgelord McEdgeson
The Actual Pervert
Rule 3: Bullsheit Powers
The Main character must have some kind of special weapon unique to him, or a weak skill that he/she abuses. In other words, the main character must be op if the anime involves fighting or battling.
Rule 4: Only Regard If In a School Anime
Most of the time, the main characters in a school anime must be in a club together. Also the main protagonist must have the window seat.
Rule 5: Enter the She-tagonist
I won't bother with the details, since the formula for building a female character is so complicated. Just mix and match multiple ones you like from the list below.
Miss Mary Sue Senpai
The Happy Slave
The Tsundere
The Childlike
Over Sized Mammaries
Under Sized Mammaries
Yandere
Rule 6: Weird Hair
In order to further distinguish your main characters from the other plebian background characters, they must have colored, or over exaggerated hair. It is a must when making the character as it will make the character more memorable. The hair must also go behind the eye for reasons unknown.
Rule 7: Enter the Animal Mascot
Insert Weird colored or cute animal mascot.
Rule 8: The Harem
The Male protagonist must be lusted or surrounded by a female cast. Add very few other main protagonists only for comedic effect.
Rule 9: The Punishment
The female protagonist must punish the male protagonists for simple mistake. The male can't punish the female because that would be wrong. Grumble…grumble….complain…..

Rule 10: Only Japan survives the apocalypse.
Self-explanatory. Japan's Mech-robots and super fighting teenage alien from Beverly Hills with tattoos have saved them from the unholy apocalypse.
Rule 11: Nosebleeds
If a character sees something perverted, they get a nosebleed, simple. Instead of the blood rushing the bone, it rushes out the nose. Its common anatomy.
Rule 12: Robots
Hey Guys, instead of funding an all existence erasing bomb, or a tactical high powered proton sniper satellite, let's make robots so we can…
Rule 13: Yell our Awesome Attack Names
It is a must to yell our attack name when attacking an enemy. It is common courtesy, and how else would they know what your cool looking attack is called.
Rule 14: Go ahead and Transform or Power Up, I won't interrupt
Hey guys let's let Freeza reach his 100% power. He will give us a pizza. Actually, 2 pizzas. With Stuffed crust.
Rule 15: The Power of Friendship
When a character is backed into the corner by an op opponent, and the writer has written himself into the wall, call on the power of Deus Ex Machina/Friendship to give the good guy a fighting chance.
Rule 16: Screaming makes you more powerful
In order to power up, you must squat or scream, or both. We don't judge. You do you.
Rule 17: Endless Monologues
They explain their entire life story to you. The villain even explains their entire plan and shows the hero how to foil them.
