— State the character and specify which tag applies. The character must have at least one of the above tags on aniDB AND be listed on MAL for the series. Can be a main or supporting character.

least-watched genre

Maybe you just haven't found the right series showcasing that genre yet. Or maybe you're very aware of your preferences but can fill some gaps in challenges with that anime you've been putting off.
— Go to malgraph and enter your username. If you've used malgraph before, update your profile by clicking the flashing "Click to update" button on your malgraph profile page (it may take a few minutes to update). Navigate to the Favorites page, and scroll down to the "Favorite genres" table. Sort by time ascending (see example here), and the genre at the top of the list is your least-watched genre. If your least-watched genre(s) are Hentai, Yaoi, or Yuri, then you are allowed to skip to the next genre on the list. A screenshot of your favorite genres table, including your username in the URL, is highly recommended!

least-watched type

Maybe this is the beginning of a new per-day challenge for you. Or maybe you can get closer to filling out that series collection that's been on hold.
— Go to malgraph (see instructions above) and navigate to the Favorites page. Scroll down to the "Favorite types" pie chart and select the type with the lowest number of entries. If your least-watched type is Music, then you are allowed to skip to the next type with the lowest number of entries. A screenshot of your favorite types table, including your username in the URL, is highly recommended!
