Specifically, let us exclude and include genres. Other websites have it so that if you click once, you include the genre and double click to exclude. Something like this:

Seriously, MAL. Get with the times already.

Though you can do this on Seasonal Anime for every season still isn't a thing on Advanced Search.
Also suggested many times before I think it's good to bump those threads instead of making a new one

I was able to do yours, but I can't merge the ones that predate this thread. Anyway, despite most of the posts being mainly bumps, I think this should be the main thread for this suggestion.

It would be amazing if this was implemented, but considering its been well over a year since the suggestion i'm not getting my hopes up any time soon...

I really just want to filter my list to see what anime that have X in their genre is. How hard is it to make such a function...

How in the blue balls of hell is it still not possible to search by source material?

I was just aware of this problem since I haven't been using the archaic search system much, but wow this is a bad design oversight. I can't fathom how splitting the genre filter into two seperate categories is ever a good idea. Hope this suggestion pulls through.

Wow, it's been awhile since I've logged and post here. The search system is still the same as before
It's more than two years already since I've posted it, time flies.

i would like it if when you're using advanced search you can exclude AND include certain genres not just one or the other

Duplicate thread Merged

This is something that even sites like, say, kissanime has, theoretically shouldn't be that hard to implement.

I don't even remember anymore how I felt making the thread.

I just checked the search option and the functionality is still not there

Fuck it, I'm bumping this. Goddammit, MAL. This is 2020. Hell, 2020's almost over and you still don't have a feature as basic as this? Do you really care about your userbase this little?

Imagine getting investments but still having a primitive genre filter that is worse than most illegal sites.

This suggestion is almost 4 years old
