What are the favorite anime series among female Japanese otaku?

The AnimeNation.net blog recently linked to a Japanese otaku dating service poll, listing favorite anime series by guys and girls. The list of favorite guy shows was not surprising: K-ON!, Haruhi, Lucky Star, Gundam, etc.

What did the girls like?

Mecha.

Oh, and moé shows.

The #1 favorite show among girls was Gundam (all shows), followed by moé-fest K-ON!, then three mecha series: Code Geass, Macross Frontier, and Neon Genesis Evangelion (okay, that last was tied with Toradora!).

There’s not a single shoujo series in the lot. Heck, Gurren Lagann — possibly the biggest celebration of male-ness ever made — is #9.

Wha?
