I currently need help finding anime that fit some of the Laws
------------------------------------------------------------

#24 Law of Americanthromorphism
(M)    Americans in Anime appear in one of two roles, either as a really nasty skinny "Bad Guy" or a big stupid "Good
         Guy".

(1)    First Corollary: The only people who are more stupid than the big dumb Americans are the American translators.
        (Sometimes referred to as the Green Line Effect)

(2)    Second Corollary: The only people who are more stupid than the American translators are the American editors
         and censors.

(3)    Third Corollary: Canadians are usually portrayed as smart, strong, handsome "Good Guys".

-------------------------------------------

Specifically I need help finding anime that fit "M" and "1" but if you have suggestions for the other two, I'd be happy to hear them.

Also, if possible, could someone explain to me why (1) is referred to as "Green Line" Effect, ie where does that come from?

Please, I really need help with this stuff.
