| yes as simple as the title just wanted to know why people like certain genres, what do they see in them !!! for me, its slice of life and supernatural (two poles haha) and i think i like SoL because maybe i am not an Overachiever so i really like to enjoy the daily minute basic things and supernatural because its like an escape from the rotten reality <3 pretty cringe reasons but yeah. |
| Mine is slice of life because it makes me very happy and relaxed while watching it. |
 |
| My favourite genre is comedy and my second favourite is slice of life, they're my favourites because I love the type of comedy and humour you get when the two genres are mixed. Plus I've always preferred light-hearted shows. |
| Thriller because they are extremely rare and Deconstructions because they depict realism |
| If you want to reply to my posts, come up with valid arguments instead of ad hominem HIGHER LEVEL THINKERS ONLY |
| Slice of Life is the most enjoyable genre. It's easy and relaxing to watch. |
 |
my favorite genre in anime is ecchi because I like to look at hot girls doing hot things |
    |
| No idea but according to Anime+: Highest Weighted Score - Drama Highest Mean Score - Reverse Harem Highest Amount of titles - Action Highest Time Spent - Action Highest Mean Score in Titles from: 1998 and 2000 with Mean Score of 9/10 Highest Mean Score for a Decade from when are titles: 2010s with 7.89 |
my favorite genre in anime is fantasy ecchi because i love seeing sexy girls in BIKINI ARMORS fight and fondle each other. |
| Drama and comedy. these two elements are basically essential for me to have a good time. If not outright comedy, a little bit of light hearted-ness helps to soften the drama and make the sad times more poignant. |
 |
| action im a simple fan anyway and i like to see more rule of cool |
| Slice of Life. I can't really say why, it just feels good and soothes the soul. |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. |
| Isek*i because I'm a filthy self inserter. I also like SoL, specifically cgdct, and Ecchi. |
 |
| definitely slice of life comedies those are literally my life force u know those make me laugh, cry, giggle like a child throughout the day, like im overflowing with happiness im so glad this shit exists for real |
 |
| SoL because it's calm and soothing. Not much plot or central flow of story to follow. Each episode can be enjoyed distinctly. |
 |
| Girls Love One girl in love is great. But two girls in love with each other is even greater. |
| Romance. because I like to see 2 character (male and female) get attracted in any form of feelings. |
  What Does Pot of Greed do?  |
| My favorite genres are idol/music/mahou shojo/shojo, I just like anything that is cute |

| Mystery... As you never get bored and always trying to figure out how and who before the detective does.. Plus you learn various things like forensic science and other scientific informations and learn new tricks.. As a mystery fan I'm always wanting to see the perfect crime and secretly hoping the culprits doesn't leave any clue behind.. Also the motive and reason behind the killings and the back storyline of the culprit makes you wonder what if you were in the culprits position.. |

| This is kinda hard to answer. As I like all kinds of genres. However, if I have to pick one it either mystery or psychological. I’ve always been a fan of mystery, All thanks to a certain show that I grew up with. I feel like mystery is an important quality to every piece of fiction. A good mystery satisfies the curiosity. It allows you to interact with literature like no other genre could. It also helps you develop good critical thinking skills while simultaneously keeping you entertained. I believe humans were programmed to be curious. That’s what makes us intelligent in the first place. My second favorite genre is psychological. If you think about it psychological fiction is a vague term. There are many sub-genres stemming from it. You got psychological thriller, drama, horror, etc. however, what draws me in towards this genre is my fascination with the human psyche. It’s always been a mystery how humans behave the way they do. We’re complex beings with contradicting emotional stimuli. What I love about this genre how it generally explores the concept of self. And what I mean by that, is it explores the different perspectives of the characters self and the contradicting nature of who they are. Dissecting their identity, and unravel Whatever darkness resides deep in their psyche. Which leaves for an interesting watch. An extra favorite of mine would be Avant-Garde/Experimental fiction. This is a genre that I’m currently fascinated by, for reasons I cannot explain easily. Its complex & confusing. Often unorthodox with the way it’s presented. It’s a very strange genre that leaves you thinking, wondering what you’ve just experienced. It can be both cerebral & a visceral trip. Often leaving you with more questions than answers. It’s a genre that’s entrancing to the mind. A hazy dream of some kind. Shows like Bakemonogatari, Mononoke, Serial Experiments Lain, Angels Egg perfectly Incapsulate this feeling for me. With how out of touch the directing feels, coupled with psychedelic visuals & an eccentric sound design leaves for a peculiar atmosphere. |

| Mystery, supernatural or detective stories? Yes, please. I also love psychological stuff because it makes everything more entertaining when it's done right. |

| Drama, any form but kudos if it’s family drama. Political thriller too! |
 just wanna feel wanted by someone other than the police 😫 |
| I don't have a particular favorite genre in anime. My favorite manga genre is erotica. I like the plot. |
 |
| Mecha by far, it consists themes and genres I like too i.e. politics, military, sci-fi, space etc., it have giant robots and a lot of interesting technologies. Space almost on the same level, but this genre in anime is pretty weak compared to western media, so it's just second place. |
 |
I like romance and comedy. I also like fantasy and action but I am pretty laid back with the types of animes I watch so I mostly watch animes that can be categorized as 'wholesome'.  |
| comedy. maybe because i'm always so stressed and anxious all the time and just need a good laugh. |
