The base BESM rulebooks were great if you had an idea for a setting which could be done in an Anime style, and just threw so many ideas at you they could really flesh that idea out. However without a setting, it wasn't really a game, just a rule set. However, the various books they brought out supporting different anime's were great.
"...without a setting, it wasn't really a game, just a rule set." This seems to be the case of many generic games, they work much better with either a source book, or by the GM establishing some rules for the world, or the player establishing what their power is supposed to represent.
