4 - A complete fascist rides around on a motorbike beating the snot out of half the criminals he encounters and executing the rest with a massive gun. is Judge Dredd although I have to agree with Twig that it does sound a lot like the Punisher. I think the bike might be the difference.

>7 - A girl decides that the perfect man for her is the guy who wants to kill her. Yaoi Fangirls flood mecha fansites. is Gundam Wing

You know, "fascist" should've been the tip off. I mean, Punisher is pretty hardcore, but Dredd is much more of a literal fascist.

True. Plus Dredd was deliberately written as such, whereas the Punisher is only accidentally a fascist ;)

Hahaha, an accidental fascist.

That should be the title of a book.
