Besides yaoi I don't intentionally avoid genres. I don't watch battle shounen because it doesn't really interest me. The same goes for mecha, martial arts, demons, ect.

Any romance or mecha because i am not a fan of either genres.
Harems cause cringe.
Also generic shounen battle anime.

yeah, thats fine @ mechas. Anime sports are really different from real life sports, i dont like watching most sports irl but i enjoyed the fuck out of haikyuu. the presentation is vastly different (i already posted ths like 500 times but they really are). its worth giving one (and ill keep recommending haikyuu lol) a shot imo, there are lots of great sport shows out there you might really enjoy.

Full Metal Panic is shit from what I understood. You rated KlK and TTGL 8/10, you might want to watch FLCL.

- cars
- game
- horror
- mecha
- military
- music
- mystery
- police
- psychological
- shoujo ai, shounen ai, yuri, yaoi
- thriller.

other than above is what usually i pick.

I tend to avoid shows with overly dark and grim premises or 'torture-porn'-like shows, purely because of my distaste of seeing such things on screen. So that automatically means stuff like Tokyo Ghoul, AOT (to some extent) and P-Pass may find it difficult to get onto my watchlist. That also means the entire Horror genre is out of the window (I never liked watching horror anything)

Blame it on personal taste, but I always found myself preferring shows that knows how to balance dark drama, thriller or action with lighter elements PROPERLY (think Noragami), unlike Code Geass, whose almost overwhelming display of racism and mass genocide was contrasted with extravagant...school festivals?! Then theres the issue of R2's obvious dumbing down by replacing actual strategy with typical power-ups and questionable camera angles and fan service.

If anything, I would much prefer Slice of Life shows that have little or no conflict at all. SOL has always been my fav genre, spawning my fav titles such as Hibike, Hyouka, Non Non Biyori and Tamayura.

But I do believe that my tastes will widen, eventually. If you find my blog posts about the shows I've been following this season, you will see that I'm increasingly enjoying mystery/thriller shows like The Perfect Insider; one such show that I would've avoided the moment I see that the shows deals with murders committed by minors, and other destructive mind-fucking themes.

OT: I try to avoid:

Mechas, because I don't find appeal in seeing two robots fighting.
Romance, I don't mind romance in other genres, but the genre itself is not my cup of tea
Yaoi/Yuri, because the plot usually is centered about romance and I don't see the appeal

I would include sports, but watching Haikyuu, I cahnge a bit my perspective about them.

Sci-fi allows pretty much everything. Dumb space operas, social commentary in a cyberpunk setting, psychological mindfuck, epic robots, political thriller, blablabla.

Fantasy? It's just a convenient setting to throw a shitload of pointy ears grills at the MC.

And both are settings, not genres (kinda like shonen/seinen/josei being demographics and not genres).

- sexual content

SoL. Although I am open to any anime that is critically successful

People who say they avoid sports should at least try a few good ones though. Because you are literally missing out. I know they were unappealing before I tried any, but they became one of my favorite genres.
