Very comprehensive. A lot of edge cases though. To my understanding the Memories compilation [1] consisted of 3 films (Magnetic Rose, Stink Bomb, Cannon Fodder), and while they were all sci-fi there's only one I would really consider to fit the genre (Cannon Fodder). Magnetic Rose is borderline and Stink Bomb just plain isn't for obvious reasons (lol). GenoCyber I wanted to watch but I've heard it is more a masterpiece in gore than anything remotely Cyberpunk.
A lot of these I have simply never heard of (& I thought I was an expert) so I will have to check 'em out. I always say that good starting off points are the Masamune Shirow films and OVAs (GiTS, Appleseed, Black Magic, Dominion, etc) and Psycho-Pass (a real gem).
