I'm not sure that it works as a series, but as a one-off parody it was

You think all the spoofworthy elements in anime have been used up in 30
minutes?
No, Project A-ko was 90 minutes, and only scratched the surface--
In Adult Swim's case, however, it used up all the elements of
niche-bashing stoners who think "Japanimation" consists of Star Blazers,
Voltron, and Other Crappily Dubbed Things They Saw Back in the 80's.
. . . and Cowboy Bebop . . . and Evangelion . . . and FLCL . . . and
Tirgun . . . and Moribito . . . and Code Geass . . . and Eureka 7 . .
. and Inuyasha . . . yeah, this is probably *still* not enough to make
the point for "some," but it should do . . .
(And not all of them work for Williams Street.) ;)
Derek Janssen (still trying to convince anime fans whether it's really
WORTH taking the bigoted pop-kitsch crap that they regularly do from
CN/Swim, just for a few Bleach reruns)
I guess they're "reruns" if you saw the original Japanese; dubbed
though, clearly new . . .
