Lol, it is hard to say out of my mouth but Ecchi. It makes anime look like crap. I mean Hentai is not that strange since it is porn, but Ecchi isn't even that and makes us look like little pervy nerds.

Do not want that..

Honorable mention for Harem. It is unrealistic and painful to watch, main characters are shit and again this genre makes us look like crap, again.

Slice of life is more so a concept than a genre. There are shows that focus on it specifically such as Aria the Animation or Natsume Yuujinchou, but most anime with a story to tell incorporate it as a subtle theme. Major is a baseball anime in which characters grow through slice of life experiences but isn't listed as specifically slice of life.

My least favourite genre is ecchi, it's good if it has a good story but if it is pointless fanservice just to attract teenage viewers then its -9000 on a scale of -9000 to 10.

I agree with this, but in my opinion, whenever I see the genres harem and ecchi together in an anime, it puts me off. It's a serious offender of bland characters and cliche scenarios. I just learn to avoid it, I don't have the right to get rid of it.

Anyways, it's not like there's never been a good ecchi/harem. Good ideas come from anything once in a while.

Harem, because not only is it boring and often times misogynistic, but the main male character is almost always 100% really uninteresting and bland.

I'd have to say ecchi and lolicon. This is because they are partly responsible for why anime fans suffer the social stigma that they do.

Meh, I already had some fun with each one of them I guess. Even if overall I despise a whole genre, there's always something good to offer. Sometimes 0,1% of the genre is good, but that's still something isn't it?

Reserve-Harems (Aka. A lot of boys in love with one girl) I think it's kinda selfish to destroy a genre just because you don't like it, but is there anyone who actually enjoys reverse-harems? I mean, the guys are usually hot, but I've yet to find one with a likeable female main character.

I know plenty. Fruits Basket is reverse harem, and is very popular with a big fandom.

And then there's Ouran Highschool host club, literally one of the most popular anime in here.

#toostronk.
It's natural for a person to deny he's a failure as a human being. That's why he searches for somebody who is more miserable than himself. That's why so much animosity exists on the internet. Those who aren't able to find a more miserable person, turn to the internet and call other people losers, even though they've never met. Just to make themselves feel superior. isn't that pathetic? There's a sense of security that comes from speaking badly of someone else. But that isn't true salvation. — Tatsuhiro Satou

I'm still looking for a reverse-harem were the female MC isn't kindhearted and sweet. And I don't know if Fruits Basket can really be counted as a reverse-harem. It's two boys in love with one girl, harem is usually +2.

2 boys in love, but the mc is surrounded by men. I think harem anime doesn't have to be about only romantic relationships. But yeah, is full of cliches and stereotypes. But appeal to a big audience.

Me. And lots of females. I don't mind if its bad, because they tend to be my guilty pleasure type of shows. Lots of good voice actors, good looking guys, relaxing plot (aka doesn't hurt my head) and usually good art.

And to name a few good ones:
Kamigami no Asobi
...and that's it. I'd recommend Brothers Conflict and Uta no Prince-sama if you haven't already seen them. I see you watched Amensia and DiaLovers which are two of the worse ones.

You know what,you don't make anime. Anime is made for enjoyment. Moe lolis/incest/harems/ecchi/yaoi/yuri are made for horny fat otaku which is the major fanbase in Japan. We live in the world where all that matters is money,so they will make what it sells the most.
There are people who'd want to fuck their sister watching Oreimo.
