Shiki. I liked the show but definitely wouldn't rewatch it because it's tedious to sit through like 7+ episodes of characters being clueless and the latter half of the show is too damn depressing.

Every show that I give a 7 or above is re-watchable to me. Even some my 6s are rewatchable.

Decent to me is a 6, but if your cut-off score for decency is a 7 then I'd mention (among others):

- Kimi no na Wa
- Madoka Magica
- Fate/Zero
- Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas
- Bakemonogatari
- Nisemonogatari
- Slayers Try
- Jigoku Sensei Nube
- Ghost Sweeper GS Mikami
- Tetsuwan Atom (1980)
- High School DxD

All these 7/10's... I don't consider 8+'s because to me anything 8+ is actually worthy of a possible rewatch.

Witchblade. Watching MILFs bite the dust hits me to an irrational degree in the feels.

I don't think I could watch Blood+ or Monster all the way through again, either, simply because there are stretches of the two series that are intolerably slow, despite the quality.

For me, any slice of life, unless it's Non Non Biyori.

I think slice of life in general is the easiest genre to rewatch. Obviously it depends on the anime, but it's so easy to just put on a random episode and let it absorb you all over again.

A recent one would be Texhnolyze. Although I rewatch pretty much everything that I consider a favorite or good. Give enough time and you've forgotten a lot from point A to point Z. There are times when I've finished a certain series, thinking I'll never revisit it again. A few months goes past and I sit in my couch watching/reading it all over again. I am more compelled to rewatch series than indulging myself in new ones.

Toradora. It's the only anime that I rate 9 or above but I haven't re-watch a single episode of it. Maybe it's not especially comedic and episodic enough?

Also Hyouka, I have a habit to re-watch anime rather than watching something new when I'm not in an optimal environment to watch anime because I treasure my first experience with an anime a lot. So I rarely re-watch Hyouka too, because it's one of those anime that would be a lot better when there is no disturbance around, but if I'm in that circumstances I might save the time for something else.

I used to re-watch a lot of shows even if I didn't liked them that much that kept airing on TV since i had nothing better to do I kept watching the same thing again and again lol unless it was a trash I didn't bother to, but then I enjoyed watching some animes which I rated 8+ when I joined MAL, but now I don't feel like watching anything anymore, but my mood may change years later(?)

This was actually really difficult for me because most of the shows I have no interest in re-watching are either low scored, or not scored at all, because I forgot everything about them. That said, I did come up with 3 titles. 91 Days, Just Because and Re:Creators, and all three for basically the same (underwhelming) reason. I just think they're 'meh'. I liked them enough to give them good scores, but not enough to have any particularly fond or even strong memories with them. They're just.... meh

Ansatsu Kyoushitsu (second season)
Clannad
Free!
Inuyashiki
Magi
Nana
Tasogare Otome x Amnesia
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0
Zetsuen no Tempest

All of these animes I rated 9 or 10 so I really enjoyed it, but I don't think I would watch them again. I think these are great if you watch them for the first time. Rewatching them won't give the same impact and would be pretty boring.

I consider "decent score" to be a 9/10 or above. I've scored 63 anime a 9/10 or above (64 if you count SAO Abridged).

There are only 25 of those I haven't re-watched.
- Hidamari Sketch and SAO: GGO Alternative are anime I'm yet to finish.
- Welcome to the NHK, Kill la Kill, Tatami Galaxy and Haibane Renmei are anime I have decisive plans to re-watch in the near future.
- Neon Genesis Evangelion, Sayounara Zetsubou-sensei and Ore Monogatari are anime I'm partway through re-watching now.
- Youjo Senki, PaniPoini Dash and Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru are anime I have an urge to re-watch eventually, but not right now.
- Hyouka and Azumanga Daioh are anime I got part-way through re-watching and didn't finish (Hyouka because I was re-watching with the dub and only half the dubbed episodes were out at the time. Azumanga Daioh because the comedy didn't land the second time around).

That leaves a total of 11, here's my reasons for each (ranked by probability I'll re-watch it):
- Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight (Want tor re-watch it eventually, but I'll never find the time)
- Mushishi (I get the sense that Mushishi was never meant to be experienced twice)
- Wolf Children (There really isn't any value in watching this movie twice. The broader strokes are of the most value)
- Kino's Journey (If I ever want more Kino's Journey, I'll read the far more expansive light novels)
- Chuunibyou (Second season made me doubt the quality of the first, making it hard to find the motivation to re-watch it)
- Kemono Friends (I'm sure the problems with the series will become more pronounced on a second viewing)
- Princess Principal (I have no idea why I haven't re-watched this, nor why I don't plan to)
- Akagami no Shirayuki-hime (I don't like it enough to watch it twice)
- Mahoujin Guruguru (Feels like the cheerful atmosphere will be less potent the second time around)
- Plastic Memories (Didn't like it enough to watch it twice)
- Shirobako (Too much "nothingness" for me to watch this twice)

Lots of people said Grave of Fireflies and I will concur. I tried to rewatch it to make myself cry but I couldn't do it. The level of heart wrenching pain inflicted from that movie is just too much...

I don't rewatch full seasons but just rewatch scenes that I spontaneously remember and want to laugh so I rewatch a certain episode. I recently remembered the funny scene from Handa-kun when he got a confession letter so I rewatched that episode. Nagi no Asukara, Clannad, Gintama fall in that category.

The other reason would be I don't want to ruin the initial emotions of joy and wonderment I felt watching a show the first time. You get bored after you rewatch it so often. Kimi no Na wa falls in that category. Black Lagoon, a lot of Shoujo anime, maybe even Ergo Proxy, belong in this category.

Everything else is fair game if they're memorable.

Noir, Madlax, and other assorted slow-burn "yuri-bait" shows (Canaan is one that pops immediately into my head) are definitely on my list as well. I can enjoy them once, but the relationship blue-balling prevents me from re-watching them.

I very rarely rewatch anything regardless of what score I've given it. Most of my favourites are quite long, too, which makes them even harder for me to rewatch.

Grave of the Fireflies and Barefoot Gen, based on skimming through what I've rated.

I feel like the effect of something packed with so much "real-world drama" is lessened by repeat viewings. I liked them for the most part (Barefoot Gen was iffy in places, but it pulled itself together in the second half). Both of them made me cry at certain points. They were that affecting.

But I don't think they would have the same emotional impact if I saw them again. I feel like I've already gotten the most I can get out of them, and therefore have little to no interest in seeing them again.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

Don't get me wrong - it was a solid show, but I don't need to watch it again.

I have been meaning to finish watching the original Fullmetal Alchemist, but since I know what happens in Brotherhood I have barely any desire to finish it.

Bakuman.
Fate.
Monogatari series.

Basically any anime that is somewhat successful, with exceptional plot, characters, and a memorable/satisfying ending, also leaving no plot holes, cliffhangers, etc.
As well as animes that bypass the typical 24 episodes are not worth re-watching.
Like would you watch the entire 500ep Naruto anime again? I think not.

Especially an anime that puts you into the eternal void(Post Anime depression) for a week straight. Yeah, don't ever re-watch them.

I don't re-watch anything. Even if I do, It's just some EPIC clips from certain episodes. I'll still name one which I'll never watch again and that is "The Tatami Galaxy" Even though I loved it.

Yea. I've tried with Madlax, Noir, and Cazador de la bruja, but I just couldn't, they were just slow af with the pacing and like you said about the relationship. Canaan I may be able to re-watch mostly because there is a bit more action (I thought) than in the others I just mentioned but after my first watch It didn't leave me with the impression of wanting to go back to watch it again like other anime have left on me after the first watch through
