This list fails WP:LISTN, since there are no sources that talk about these works as a group (in fact, the article doesn't have any sources at all). That's likely because Bandai Visual has not actually created any of these series listed, they only acted as a sponsor/production committee during their original run as well as maybe releasing them for DVD at some point. They are not a production studio like Sunrise or Gainax, they're a distribution company, so I fail to see how this needs its own list. Namcokid 47 ^(Contribs) 23:49, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Delete - per the reasoning above. I also think that removing catalog lists from most distributor page should be a change adapted across the board with only a few exceptions. Link20XX (talk) 00:14, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:LIST and WP:TNT. A list like this is worse than useless. There's no rhyme nor reason, even if it is chronological. It is a pure mess. Bearian (talk) 16:20, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
