Well after I witnessed the essence of Food Wars, I surely feel it should be watched alone. Though as the story progress I realized that I'm wrong.

So what's the anime that made you feel like that just by seeing the few minutes?

Neon Genesis Evangelion comes to mind. As well as The Big O.

Fumetsu no Anata e. I think drama in general is better to watch alone so I can be more immersed with the story and feel the emotions

you'd need balls of steel to watch something like Manyuu Hikenchou, Masou Gakuen HxH, Valkyrie Drive or Seikon no Qwaser in front of an audience

I love the series but I don't think I'll be able to watch the monogatari series with someone else

None. Watching any anime with other people makes it feel like I'm paying more attention to whether the person is enjoying it or not rather than watching the anime.

I watch anime alone no matter what. I don't share. Maybe that's the stigma I grew up with, idk.

I usually watch anime by myself since I don't have many friends who watch anime. And, personally I feel that watching anime by yourself allows you to experience it in a different light than watching it with others. However, I do watch anime movies with my family.

But, anime like Redo of Healer and Hybrid x Heart Magias Academy Ataraxia should be watched by yourself.

The first one I remember was probably To LOVE-Ru

Although I do have a brief memory of hiding while pokemon was on tv because my brother would make fun of me for liking anime.
My taste is trash. So is yours.

I remember watching the Death Note live action as a teenager. During the part where misa was detained and interrogated, my ex girlfriend showed up and she thought I was watching some dark web shit

She immediately yelled "wtf is that?" Lmao

I don't really have that feeling very often since 99% of the anime I watch is by myself anyway. Sometimes if I'm watching anime on a bus I'll feel self conscious if it's a little ecchi.

The Monogatari Series
I said the exact same line as OP mentioned on the first 10 seconds of the very first episode of the very first installment of the Monogatari Series. Damn, that's a lot of "of the very first" lmao.

The Grisaia Trilogy
I decided to watch this anime blindly without knowing what's it about, and i quickly realized this is a harem show judging by the setting. After realizing, i said that exact line OP mentioned.

The Testament of Sister New Devil
Said it when there's a scene showing the heroine's n1pple lmao.

Pretty much any anime because regardless of the genre or tone you can never be sure when the always "necessary" booty-shot or lucky fall-on-tiddies can happen.

In general I prefer to watch anime alone. But if there was an anime like that it would be:

Haibane Renmei
Shinsekai yori
And other similar anime

Personally it's the opposite for me, have to search hard to find a show friends would enjoy. Those anime tend to be battle shounen which isn't my cup of tea so I just end up chilling by myself.

You're going to be all right. You just stumbled over a stone in the road.
It means nothing. Your goal lies far beyond this. Doesn't it?
I'm sure you'll overcome this.

Redo Of Healer, i won't even watch that in front of my cats...
What debating with DigiCat is like according to APolygons2
That's why I thought a discussion would be pointless. It doesn't feel like a debate. It feels like I'm playing chess and somehow lose to an uno reverse card after loosing all my monopoly money lol

My cat was judging me the whole 12 weeks it aired. Its like he gave me the "Really?" stare. "You drag out your laptop just for this one singular show so you can watch it uncensored?" xD

xD xD xD My cats usually give me the WTF look when i burst out laughing while watching anime/reading manga (also i'm in the habit of watching/reading past 2am), once i had the honor of having all 3 of my cats stare at me like that while i laughed hysterically reading Chainsaw Man at 3 in the moring

Monogatari Series was brought up numerous times, but I have to disagree. I saw all three Kizumonogatari movies in theaters and those experiences among the most fun film movie-going experiences I've had. It did help that the crowd in those showings were all seasoned Monogatari fans, some were even cosplaying, and were comfortable with the idiosyncrasies of the series. Though I imagine that experience would have been quite awkward if it was a general audience instead.

Honestly most series. I don't really like watching anime with people. If I'm watching something in public I'll keep it to pretty PG series.
