Seto no Hanayome/YMMV

Complete Monster: Yoshio only appears for two episodes, but it doesn't take long for him to achieve Complete Monsterdom when he drugs Sun into a trance and tries to marry her against her will (while planning to do a little bit of This and That soon afterwards.)
Crazy Awesome: The entire series in general.
Crowning Moment of Awesome: The finale. Just... the finale.
- For Sun's awesome moment, we have episode 13.
Crowning Moment of Funny: The introduction episode of Lunar's dad, and the entire giant Nagasumi episode.
Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: The 24th episode. Sure it's Played for Laughs but damn, it's also very, very heartwarming.
Crowning Music of Awesome: Lunarian, Your Gravitation, the Song of Heroes and the Song of War.
Ear Worm: The OP. Watashi wa romantikku, anata mo romantikku....
- Good luck getting the Mermaid's Song of Sleep out of your brain!
- And Your Gravitation is this and Crowning Music of Awesome.
Fan Disservice: Sun becoming a man for her role as a lover for Lunar, it's ridiculously manly.
High Octane Nightmare Fuel: The second half of the 2nd OVA, which does a Genre Shift from comedy/action to straight horror, borrowing elements from The Ring. Saturn will probably haunt your nightmares now.
Memetic Sex God: Masa.
Moe Moe: In one episode, Lunar-papa, Gozaburo, and Masa (ordered to) crossdress as schoolgirls and catgirls and act out moe stereotypes in an attempt to understand a girl's heart. It really is that horrible. Ends with Sun suddenly receiving cat ears, which everyone agrees is incredibly moe (before being blasted away).
Woolseyism: That whole chivalry/mermaid pun is instead rendered as "honor among thieves is honor under the seas" in the English version and thus drowned and made to fishfood. But then again, while "mermaid" and "chivalry" may besimilar words in Japanese, they aren't even close in english, so keeping it would have hurt the dub more than helped.
They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Nagasumi's relationships with Mawari and Lunar. They both obviously have feelings for Nagasumi, yet all the development ^[1] between them was never spoken of ever again after a certain point, and they reverted to how they were before said development. Which is sad really, as that would've made the plot more interesting.

↑ Episodes 4,6, and 18 for Mawari, and 12 and 13 for Lunar; Lunar was also technically the first girl to confess her true feelings to Nagasumi as well.
