Should this be in the horror genre

Honestly, the way it portrays physical and mental health is more terrifying than almost all the horror I’ve watched. It does body/cell gore really well and it shows how the psyche of the character get torn apart. I’d personally put it in the horror genre but that’s just me.

No? It doesn’t have any horror elements.

Yeah, seeing so many waifus died in your own body is quite depressing

I’d say no. It’s like a disaster film over and over but in anime form. It may have a scary part here or there but that wouldn’t make it part of the horror genre.

I would say partially - not principally, but as a veteran horror fan I can recognize horror and it definitely has those elements. I would say it is more of both a Drama and Action, which are the two genres already listed, but if some series can have four, six, eight, 10 genres tagged, then why not Horror for this one? I also concur it has a legitimate enough presence and should be recognized for it. It does feel quite akin to a number of "adventure horror" and "survival horror" I've seen - the kind of horror which comes from more naturalistic causes like ordinary man's savagery or extreme weather - either from a deadly trek and expedition to some chaotic destination gone wrong, from a natural disaster and its fallout and aftermath, or from a war.
