Ricky Oh: The story of Ricky had an anime didn't it? Or maybe Ichi the Killer. The anime wasn't as good as the real movie version, but pinball can always be a loose translation.

Quoted from Russo121:Where else can you see cartoon demons with multi cocked appendages ravaging feline hybrid sex goddesses?
in part 2 3 and 4. Also in Adventure Kid. I could go on.......
Cowboy Bebop! Take down bounties to rockin' jazz music. Shoot thru the Gates in a hypersonic "Launch Ball". Take on Vicious in the Wizard Mode while "Walk in the Rain" plays menacingly in the background, intensifying with each shot.
Big O or Mighty Orbots for me. I'd also accept Voltron if they featured several Robeasts in addition to V/the lions. Is Thundercats considered anime light? If so, I'd choose them as well. Not a huge fan of anime, but there are a few cool titles that would work.
Quoted from Mateui:I'm probably going to be crucified for saying this, but Pokémon. I envision the game allowing you to choose a starter Pokémon at the outset, and then you have to find and capture 5 other Pokémon during the game - doing battles in the process, fighting with your rival, getting gym badges, defeat the elite 4 during the Wizard Mode, etc. Everything is already in place for it to be made into a pin.
Yeah, most people are pretty burned out on Pokémon, but you do bring up some good points.
There's lot of potential for modes and goals (Hell, you could even work in a palchise game like in the game centers from the games!)

Berserk. Between the 30+ mangas, 25 anime episodes and the new 3+ movies to be released there is heaps of ideas for a PF! Set in medieval Europe, with swords, kings, monsters, castles, DID's (Damsels in Distress) this would be a great pinball! Yea maybe some of the others mentioned here have more lore to choose from but anyone that has seen Berserk will tell you how dark and epic it is. GUTS FTW!!!

Aheh rotfl a tentacle rape one came to mind to me as well(recently having fun watching la blue girl with friends).
But I gotta go with who said Akira and Ninja scroll, so that even children that aren't japanese can play th-.. 
could they?! They're pretty brutal aheh
/jokes
Hellsing was the most recent thing I watched in terms of anime. I choose that. Vampires and Nazis were one strange combination

Quoted from ovfdfireman:How is it I have never heard of any of these?
(Accept Shrek, Avatar, and speed racer)
Because you're normal?
Quoted from The_Gorilla:I would choose to not play or buy. I might even choose to attack them with a chain saw.
Zombie gorilla!
Quick, shoot it in the face! (On account of your newly resurrected self!) 
C'mon T_G...
Today's Anime has something for everyone!
Just look at AkumaZeto, he's found his niche. LOL.
Put the chainsaw down, unless you're cosplaying as Ayumu Aikawa from "Kore wa Zombie Desu ka?"
Then, and only then would I allow such talk! 
Here is a little taste of what I'm talking about...

(The T_G facial resemblance is uncanny BTW... 
)
Quoted from NimblePin:Zombie gorilla!
Quick, shoot it in the face!
I could handle anime theme until I started coming on here and seeing your ridiculous avatars all of the time!
(as opposed to my avatars which are classy and based on real life) 
Quoted from NimblePin:Zombie gorilla!
Could we make a Zombie Gorilla Anime pinball? Now that would be cool. Anime chicks killing Zombie Gorillas! (Sorry T_G)

Hahahahahahaha!...
You're actually right.
I would have voted for Evangelion (deep rule set, battle all angels, start third impact),
Or Dragonball Z, all the characters, but I think Pokémon could've a very fun and family friendly game.
Quoted from ThePostmaster:Anime chicks killing Zombie Gorillas!
If I get to play the Gorilla and have the real life Sailor Moon crew attacking, I could be persuaded.
Quoted from NimblePin:I smell a Congo re-theme
Why not? Oh, and I just checked back to your original post and saw the pic you added. Classic. I do miss you, NP. You're one of a kind!

Space Pirate Captain Harlock!
But I'd be happy with a Cowboy Bebop, FLCL, or Speed Racer as well. It's shocking there isn't already a Robotech one though, if they made one for some reason I'd prefer it to be an early SS style one - rocking a 70's style.

Evangelion would be my top pick. Rurouni Kenshin and Fullmetal Alchemist would be my runners up.
Cowboy Bebop and Ninja Scroll are really good suggestions too though.
I think DBZ is an easy fit for pinball but its sort of been done to death..
Battle of the Planets. Yeah, the Americanized version, 'cuz I'd like to see playfield toys of 7-Zark-7 and 1-Rover-1.
Also acceptable would be Roujin Z.
