not sure if anyone else suggested this but how about something like a "private category" in your list?

kinda like this;

Watching
Completed
On hold
Plan to Watch
Private (or some other title)

and thus, whatever you put in private can only be viewed by you

hentai title - score - (drop down list with choices watching/completed/onhold/plantowatch) - tags - other columns
"....i am the villain in this story"

According to this topic http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=4555
this feature has already been shot down :/ due to not enough people benefiting from it supposedly so I think this idea would have a better chance being implemented if it is reposted with a poll function to get a number for how many would benefit or not from this GREAT idea.

If you are embarrassed, don't watch it or just don't put it on your list.

I'd like to revive this discussion since it seems like the case has neither been implemented nor denied.

I personally want to add hentai to my list just for the purpose of knowing that I've watched them for a completionist perspective, as well as to know to not watch it again. However, like some users, I don't want the majority or possibly the entirety to be visible to the general public.

Yes, I could just "not add hentai" to my list as some suggest, but I feel that defeats the purpose of having an anime list to begin with. The same could be argued for hiding hentai, but that is why I feel it should be a toggle-able option rather than something that is strictly enforced.

I don't want my list to be flooded with the multitude of hentai I may watch in my downtime, so I strongly encourage that this topic be revisited.

A lot of people usually just make a separate account for their hentai lists

I don't see the point in being subject to operating two separate accounts; it just skews your overall scores even more.

There's nothing wrong with that; that's why I proposed an option of whether or not to show it.

Isn't that the point in operating a separate account? To avoid skewing your overall mean score? I mean when adding hentai on your official list the scores are usually lower since you use a different criteria in hentai than in normal series, whilst in operating another account, your mean score will not affect that of your main list +you can rate the hentai you watch with a different criteria. I don't really see how that will skew your overall scores, unless of course you rate hentai the same as tv series

I support this possible feature. I dont add hentai to my list because I don't want people to know my dirty secret...

There is absolutely no reason why I should accept "turn your brain off" as a valid excuse to defend a poor show.

It would be nice if just hentai/yaoi/yuri were in a different clickable list for me. I am happy to share and people ask a lot about them from me... And then there are the times when I am trying to reccommend stuff to another person... and sometimes I do forget what was hentai. I am starting to tag the stuff that is so I remember but... yeah. XD It is getting harder to search my list. Half my titles are perverse. I show daring in putting a hentai in my faves list with all the other anime I love.

Would be nice if there was a NSFW ranking system for Users over 18 with those R17 titles.... I always want to know how the porns stack against other porns. All Yaoi and Yuri should be under this other list. Would also be nice if the tagging system would be functional for those titles.... if only because people are looking for kinks.

Not only hentai but option to hide any selected anime from your list would be nice. Just like with blogs so you can set it to: "randoms who visit your list can't see it but your friends can", "everyone can see it", "only you can see it".

I actually don't mind having hentai on my list but there are things such as 3D Onara Gorou ga Dance Dance Dance!! which I would love to hide.
I'm watching anime since 2012. I also play games, sometimes.

Don't bother me if you want to 'become friends' or things like that.
It's tiresome. I know you just want to collect some meaningless numbers.

I want this. I'm not really a hentai person, but I've watched some older ones for historical reasons, yet won't add them to my list because I don't want people seeing something like this, for example.

I want this. I've tried managing two accounts and it was horrible. I like having all of my shows on one account so I can see overall time spent. Would be nice to have a private section. To people who say they can't find rating trolls, trolls can already make their profiles private so what's the difference? If there's a show I don't want someone to see I shouldn't be told just "don't add it" or "make another list". What's the point of having a list if it's not reasonably accurate? we can already make our whole list private why not just allow us to make certain titles private? Maybe I want to share 95% of my list with the general public and am just more private about the last 5%? So what?

This thread is over a year old....

That being said.....NEVER hide your hentai from anyone! If you think your friends will hate you for liking some good old fashioned loli bondage, they are not really your friends anyway.

Just because it's an old thread doesn't make it any less of a valid useful feature. Mal does have a new owner so potential for actual improvements.

Lol ya,if I ever have kids I don't think I want them to see loli bondage on my list ...they might get the wrong idea about how to get what they want around the house. Not good. But no I have people I work with that took an interest in getting into anime that wanted to see my list, would have been nice to show them my mal but I had to go through the trouble of exporting and importing to anime planet just to clear the hentai. Still didn't help with the ecchi but it would just be nice to keep my time watched accurate while keeping prying eyes off titles they don't need to see.

Ok, Ok! At the time I made my post I wasn't really considering having family or co-working peer at it, unlike friends you can't pick and choose those.

I can see why you would want to keep those away from prying eyes, so I can see the "hide this title" being a valuable feature. For fun, there should be a statistic of how many "hides" a show has so we can see what titles people are most embarrassed about!

yes, would like this feature for us female watchers whereas it's more common for guys to watch them xD

people say just don't include it but I still want to put them on my list if I actually liked watching it! Some posters/covers look more obvious than others that it's a hentai. haha

Don't know how this feature isn't out yet. I tried using two accounts but you just lose so many time to be honest so I gave up the idea. I can't tell if some of the people on this thread are joking or have brain damage 'cause if someone is asking for a way to hide NSFW content from his public data, how can you say something as dumb as "mAke iT pUBliC mAn!" or "MAke A SePAraTe aCcOuNt bRO".

The truth is that if you have friend/family/gf that knows that you have an account on MAL and use this website too, I'm not sure you want everyone to knows what you were fapping to. Also, some people like using the same username on different platforms. Imagine having a YouTube channel and someone ruins your reputation/blackmail you for putting a 8 to loli-bondage (that would be a funny way to start a comedy anime to be honest).

Having no issues with sharing the hentai in your list doesn't mean that everyone is in the same case and asking for a feature where you could CHOOSE between HIDE & SHOW won't change anything to those people but will save the ass of many. It would be a WIN & NOT LOSING ANYTHING scenario.

This is kinda funny. But like previously said you don't have to mark that you have watched it. Unless I'm oblivious to something.

this layout has a built in code that hides your hentai. You have to install the layout (instructions linked at the top) and then add a Hentai tag to your hentai entries. If you have trouble you should ask in the layout topic
