Can your favorite anime or characters say something about other people or yourself?

Do you think you can tell something about someone based on their favorite anime or characters? And what do your favorite shows and characters already say about you? For example, in the past, when Yusuga no Sora was one of my favorite titles, any heated and drawn-out discussion about anime genres and trends would result in someone trying to generalize all my tastes down to the content of that show. Even saying that I supposedly only watch anime for that show, which I always found odd since it was the only ecchi and borderline title on my page.

Sure can, but only a very superficial assessment.

If someone enjoyed watching Roshidere because of the sister it means they are a fan of YnS and have no problems watching incest anime at all. I prefer to stay away from such shows because incest grosses me out.

And what do your favorite shows and characters already say about you?

My taste for romance leans towards comfort and emotions, and there's a few of my favorite characters who have a sweet/caring personality that I really love (e.g Mahiru).

If their favourites depict a specific pattern, then to an extent, yes. For example, if someone has exclusively (all 10) characters of the opposite sex as their favourites, they might be a bit of a simp (nothing wrong with that, no offense intended). But it's a very superficial assessment ofcourse, nothing concrete.

And what do your favorite shows and characters already say about you?

My favourites don't really have any specific pattern, they're all over the place, but my favourite shows are from multiple favourite genres of mine, so maybe someone can get a very rough idea about my taste from seeing them.
