All Crunchyroll originals on MAL

Este fue mi segundo año en el Desafío anual, podría volverse un poco habitual esto desafío para mí.
Ya que te permite realizar un esfuerzo por ver animes viejos que están en mi lista.
Este año decidí no hacer el Hardcore (por falta de tiempo), así que me fui con la dificultad Difícil (de 40 animes) tal vez el año entrante (si es que sigo viendo animes para el próximo año) volveré a entrar.
Ha sido muy interesante y divertido el haber entrado a esto desafío ya que gracias al haberlo hecho he conocido muchas personas (que me ha ayudado muchos) e animes muy interesante.
Acá puede encontrar el desafío del año 2021: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/1890

This was my second year in the Annual Challenge, this challenge might become a bit of a regular for me. Since it allows you to make an effort to watch old animes that are on my list. This year I decided not to do the Hardcore (due to lack of time), so I went with the Hard difficulty (of 40 animes) maybe next year (if I keep watching animes for next year) I will enter again. It has been very interesting and fun to have entered this challenge since thanks to having done it I have met many people (which has helped me many) and very interesting animes.
Here you can find the challenge of the year 2021:

There are no tags for 3D and CGI which is why this list exists. Clicking the "list view" button will provide the names of sequels if the anime has any.

Except from "Onyx Equinox", "Freakangels" and "High Guardian Spice" that even being produced and licenced by crunchyroll, are not considered animes by myanimelist for being 'primarily an American production and not targeted at the Japanese market'.

Adaptations, sequels, prequels and spin-offs of western films, TV shows and literature in anime format

The criteria here is simple: Anime released in any year, with under 160,000 MAL Members, and which I've rated a 7 or higher.

I'm also not including anything that I've already included on my Good Stuff list: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/9517

Pardon my presumptuous and awkwardly worded title meant to shoehorn this into my Obscurities series. In short, if you've seen a lot of the most popular stuff and just need some new recommendations that aren't the most obvious things possible but also not too obscure, here you go.

If you'd prefer to dive deeper, go here: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/9611

all the anime to be included here are mostly cgi or completely cgi no matter if they are good or bad.
only TV series or ONAS will enter here, as well as continuations, but movies, OVAS or specials will not enter.

Anime-influenced (non-anime) by Crunchyroll Studios:
Onyx Equinox
High Guardian Spice
FreakAngels
Meiji Gekken

Works directed by Kenji Kamiyama. Commercials/ads excluded.

Series that were surprising to learn there's an anime adaptation for it.
Mainly includes anime based on Western media & video games.

Notable Sci-Fi anime with 3D/CGI animation.
Ex-Arm is one of those, it's so bad it's funny.

I can't see anything. Turn on the brightness.

Anime that use a palette of colors so dark it's hard to see stuff, especially if seen in a CRT.

Based on the replies on a thread I made, thanks to everyone that replied there!
