GURPS Anime...what should be in it?

Hmm... such variety.
My suggestion: lots of small adaptation books, with things like GURPS: Yuell on the edges.

TVTropes lists the character types, many event tropes, storytelling conventions, etc.

I adapted the Tenchi Muyo books (Tri-Stat, Green Ronin?) to GURPS (simply done), but then ran into the problem of; 'which players would accept a harem comedy?'
Certainly not my bunch of hairy forty-somethings. And they all wanted to be Ryouko, while none considered they could invent a new chara that would fit.

GURPS: Anime sounds like a project for a group of fans and forumites to bring together in a wiki.
