Honestly, as a huge anime nerd, these names are getting a little ridiculous. It doesn't stop me from watching them, I just don't get it.
Basically, most of these animes are light novel adaptations and the market for then in Japan is extremely saturated. So by making the title as descriptive as possible, there is a chance that it will catch someone's attention as opposed to having a nondescript title.
Can't believe Homestuck predicted this trend
Homestuck was excellent at satirizing internet pop culture. It was unfortunate also excellent at attracting a fan base that was blind to satire.
