I think it's time to give a proper definition to what "anime" is and in fact which kind of album can fit in the database..
I see you talk about "non-mainstream", but what is it exactly?
Are you talking about what i could call "Cartoons" too ?

I have little to no knowledge on anime, but disney/dreamworks/pixar etc.. are called differently in France, it's "Dessin Animé" and not anime.

The word "Anime" was not really used before the mid 90's, when "Mangas" invaded us.

For now, only Japanese albums could fit?
Must be OVA or films?
Origin of the series must be from Japan or something..?

What about series like the following ones to help me out and give me an idea.. ?
"Space Pirate Captain Harlock" (called Albator in France)
"The Mysterious Cities of Gold" (called Les Mystérieuses Cités d'or in France)
"The Littles"
"Candy Candy"
"Thundercats"
"Saint Seiya"
"City Hunter"
"Yu-Gi-Oh"
