Besides the ones I listed, what shows does Hope like?
I listened to the Best of the 80s, 90s, and 2000 shows that ANNCast did (way too many hours). Each panelist had to pick 10 shows from each decade.
If I recall correctly, she said her absolute favorite anime of all time was Full Metal Alchemist and rated it #1 in the 2000s block.
However, she also makes it a point she didn't like Brotherhood. This actually became an issue when I was trying to decide between the two. A female friend who was a big FMA fan said "She's full of shit. Watch Brotherhood." So, I did, and love it. I'm not sure I respect Hope's opinion enough to spend time on the original.
If I remember correctly, JO also likes Gurren Lagann
She thought it was okay, but bitched about Yoko, and it didn't rank in her 2000s list. In fact it didn't made anybody's list, sadly.
ANN's opinions are consistently awful. A common way to bait anon on /m/ is to post an article of theirs in the OP. From there, it's simply a matter of time.
Actually, I'm gonna disagree with this ever-so-slightly, and credit Theron Martin for mentioning FLAG as #6 in his best of 2000s. A rather obscure TV series from 2006 that used a found footage gimmick I've never seen before in anime. It was an interesting show I wouldn't have watched otherwise.
But yeah, otherwise, they're pretty meh. I generally don't follow them when planning what to watch. That was the exception to the rule.
Jacob Chapman doesn't seem to like the fact that the second Fate Stay Night movie about Heaven's Feel is staying true to the original route.
Hope is a sperg when it comes to Fate. I think it might be to her what SAO is to Digibro. She wrote a fucking novel worth of posts on the forums concerning everything she thinks is wrong with Zero. You can view them here (but I honestly recommend not):

IIRC, she's also bitched extensively about the "depiction of women" in the series (because, of course).
