yuri because i don't like women, but i am actually reading a shoujo ai and i'm enjoying it, just sex between girls isn't my thing
harem, the exceptons is bakemonogatari if i remember correctly, they are mass produced and full of cliches, i doubt that finding a quality one would actually be easy and i don't have time to waste for that
horror because nothing look scary if its an anime, i'm a scaredy cat in everything but gore and jumpscares in anime just come off as laugable, i still couldn't sleep because i saw the spot of a film horror in tv though lol, i actually tried watching shiki but i got bored of it, i will still try the umineku naku koro ni serie becuase i want to read everything in the top 50 manga section
idol because i think i would get bored, all female cast isn't really my thing because of how female characters get portrayed in anime usually expecially in high school settings(which is where idol happnes i guess?)
i try to avoid high school comedies or romances except if they are shoune ais or things that are i high school but focus on something else like hyouka that focus on various misteries or something like that
also martial arts anie, the only exception is holyland because my favourite manga tuber has it in his top 10 favourite manga, the reason is that they usually end up being another shounen with op main characters and ranomd power ups from waht i heard and that doesn't really appeal to me in any way
usually i try to avoid dark fantasies with claymore and berserk being the exception because the same youtuber like them a lot with berserk as his number 1 and claymore i don't remember, generally i don't like edgy protagonists and probalby the main hcaratcers in dark fantasies are going to be super edgy and badass which isn't really my thing, i started avoiding them recently, thats why there are some dark fantasies on my list but i doubt i will continue them other than maybe aot.

Shounen Ai/Yaoi, I would only watch these genres if someone paid me.
If Ufotable makes an anime remake of the Fate route and Tsukihime I can say that I lived a full life.

I usually avoid Drama shows. I usually watch anime to chill-out, not to see conflicts 'n such. I still watch them occasionally though.

I am willing to watch anime of any genre, but hentai and yaoi don't really appeal to me. Mecha doesn't really appeal to me either, but I've still watched a lot of it anyway.

I'd say either Hentai or Harem anime. Not that I'm against watching one if I found the narrative/art style appealing, but that's just never happened and I don't think it will at this point in my life.

Yaoi. Shit is gay...
Lolicon. Shit is for pedos...
Incest. Shit is for rednecks, white trash, and people from Alabama...
Furry. Shit is for beastiality lovers...

Yuri is good though. Hot lesbian action is hot. Even better if hot chicks are Bi. Potential threesome action there. Nice.

If its ears and/or tail ONLY, they are NOT Furries, they are GODDESSES!

Definitely Mecha and most especially sport.
I've already thought sports can't be done right animation wise. The "supa strikas" animation back in the day gave me PTSD. Too much reuse of frames plus the animation is really terrible.
Now I know we are talking about sport anime here and I'm probably wrong but the idea of the possibility of frame reuse which I can't get my mind off will never allow me to see any sport anime.
As for Mecha, I just don't vibe the genre. I did like the only Mecha anime I've watched (darling in the franxx) for the most part but even that I couldn't get to finish it because it is Mecha.

I don't outright avoid any genres in an absolutist sense. Meaning that I will never read the synopsis of any series, be interested in the premise detailed therein, and then check the genre tag list and turn around and say "Oh well, I can't watch it then because it's X or partially X". No, that isn't a way of being I ever entertained.

Of course, like everyone, or at least most folks, I have my own defined preferences and least favorite genres, but just as my favorite genres contain plenty of poorly written and abysmal shows and it's my responsibility to sift through it all to find the worthwhile material, the same is true in my less preferred genres.

My definite top least favorite genres are Comedy, Sports, Ecchi, Harem, and Hentai. And beyond those, I would say my next level of least favorite in the sense of "Least likely to watch" or "Least likely to find something rewarding which personally speaks to me in" would be some of the genres I don't think of as as major, like Yaoi, Shounen-Ai, Yuri, Shoujo-Ai, Mecha, and Parody.

My approach when discovering any series is honestly to read the synopsis first and only afterward looking at the date it was released, genres, length, etc. so as to not allow any of those factors to influence my decision or deter me from embarking on another journey.

It's more that relative to my favorite genres, those 11 genres I listed have perhaps the most unfavorable ratio of stories which interest and appeal to me versus those which do not. Maybe instead of 40 or 50% of the series in it being ones I'm interested in watching as in the case of my favorite genres (say, Thriller or Slice of Life) or 25 or 30% in any of the other genres, the ones in my bottom tier of genres would maybe have 10%, 5%, or less to offer.

Harem, Ecchi, Yaoi and probably sports.
Harem for me is bored and silly, i preffer a 'quiet' romance between two person or triangle love at most. Ecchi... well... it depends, i tolerate 'fan services', but I preffer quiet animes.

First post on MAL! yay, If I had to say one it might be romance (how it is presented) or most likely 100% me. But for me, honestly it could be any genre depending on the anime & how it was adapted since I don't read the manga/LN and/or I prefer dub. All anime is subject to personal opinion, no right or wrong answer and a viewer no matter how hard they think about it can't change an anime. I find myself delusional daydreaming with headphones on in deep thought about such and such, what if's and a personal 3rd person import character that just connects everything together. But yeah, thanks for reading.

Hentai, harem, yaoi, yuri, shonen ai, bl, gl, ecchi, isekai, smut, furry, antropomorphic, omegaverse
And any anime/manga/game that involved incest, p3d0philia, lolicon, shotacon, z00philia/b3stiality, body parts/dead objects fetish

These that I mentioned putting me off and with no doubt, really disgusting and definitely not enjoyable.

Easily ecchi. 95% of ones I've seen are just awful.

Harem to a lesser extent but only if its in ecchi territory or your standard trope of innocent big booby, flat chested angry tsundere, cute loli bait ect..

Shoujo slice of life. Nothing more boring then watching irritating young girls doing boring stuff.

Definitely harem anime. When a whiny, insecure, anti-social kid with no redeeming qualities somehow gets a slew of smart and very capable women to fall for him because he said a sentence in an emotional moment that would be considered awkward and creepy in real life, it just takes me out of it. I'm not saying that you have to win the genetic lottery to be popular, but at least have some self awareness.

It also doesn't help that the very nature of harem shows leaves most of the girls' characters underdeveloped that by the end of the show, I only remember them by their hair colors.

I don't watch shonen anime. I got into anime as an adult. Don't get the affection for the shows that are clearly made for boys who just want a lot of action/fighting. I want meaty ideas or something moody and emotional, not two dudes unleashing power spheres at each other for 12 episodes.
