Just Yes or No is fine.

Basically anime as a whole taking a more serious tone , so no more cutesy moments and such.

I'm gonna be brutally honest here. No. While I do watch stuff which insn't in this category, it isn't why I'm here. Lolis I could do without.

Heres a question for loli lovers , why are younger girls in western anime not lolis or are they?

What makes a loli?

I would watch it way more if those things were excluded. If moe includes characters then my waifu wouldn't exist and that would be a bummer.

Not cute characters but basically Characters cannot do anything cutesy.

yes, i guess? Though these elements certainly make anime what it is now.

There are series like GITS, ZnT.., also a few sports series like Haikyuu which have minimal (if not null) amount of these elements and are among my faves.

Of course. I don't watch anime specifically for those anyway; they're just some points of the greater whole.

Of course, they're not quite important anyway.

There are still many interesting anime without those things

YEAH. I don't actually have a huge thing against those, but that'd be great!

Except, I don't see why the lack of "moe, loli , pantsu and tsunderes" would mean the end of "cutesy moments" or not-very-serious anime.
If you're implying that the only way things can be cute or not serious are if they're lined with "moe, loli , pantsu and tsunderes", then I think that's the type of mentality that makes for bad writing and such in the first place. It's as if people stopped actually observing people and seeing what makes them think things are cutesy or funny. Sometimes it's the simple things that make things cutesy or comedic.
Which is why, to me, it doesn't seem like it'd be such a loss to not have "moe, loli , pantsu and tsunderes"; it's just a loss of tropes.

I don't care much about pantsu and Tsundere. But without Loli and moe, I don't think I'll ever find a happy anime anymore.

Anime without lolis, tsunderes and pantsu is like a desert without pterodactyles. This is the way it probably should be, but it would be definitely less interesting ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I would not have started anime if there were no moe loli. Cardcaptor Sakura was one, and it was the anime that got me interested in the medium.

If you're asking what would happen if some evil government would ban all anime with moe, loli, pantsu and tsunderes, preventing new anime from being made with them, and preventing my access to old anime with them, I know what would happen. I would get my axe, and go killing that government, taking its stuff, and killing it some more, until I run out of government or out of hitpoints.

There is anime that doesn't contain anything on your list that is interesting for me, but where would I get my dose of calmness and heartwarming?

Definitely yes. I will watch it even without moe.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Moe: it's subjective, so I don't know if it's really possible. If by "moe" you mean "cute", then no, I wouldn't watch it. The only way to make an anime with absolutely nothing cute in it is to make shit like Aku No Hana or Texhnolyze, and I hate that garbage.

Loli: I love loli, but if there's no loli in an anime, I'll still watch it if I like the plot or charatcers.

Pantsu & Tsundere: A lot of anime doesn't have pantsu or tsundere and are widely popular, so I don't get why this one is here.

But if anime was all angsty and gritty, no I would not watch it.

Not sure Cardcaptors counts as loli. I mean I didn't really watch it but it played on Nickelodeon so I'm fairly certain she kept her clothes on.

Indeed, Sakura didn't get any more undressed than a one-piece swimsuit.
But as far as I know, Danbooru is the only place where fanservice is necessary for a girl to get tagged "loli".
Sakura is a young, cute, small and flat, (just like all her friends) she has romance (with both a boy her age and a older guy), and she's quite popular with lolicons. So I think it is right to call her a loli.

No, they wouldn't. There's only so much good writing to go around, and writers can't become good until they make some not very good stuff first.
And by the time writers get good, they become old and start writing crap you can't make into an anime anyway.
