From the official MAL list: Avant Garde is my least favorite genre. Harem is my least favorite theme.

BL, most of it is filled with rapey shit that gets romanticized

I'm not a fan of BL [but I do wouldn't call it my least favorite - it is close tho], So I will say CGDCT - there's nothing wrong with it, there's just nothing for me in it. [and that's for the best I already watch nearly everything anyway XD]

If it is based on what I do watch, I would probably list either Team Sports, Reverse Harem, or Romance that is not a Rom-Com as my least favorite genre. If it a least favorite genre based on what I don't watch it would probably be Boys Love.

Battle shounen. There is nothing wrong with anime catering to teenager boys with trips of power fantasies, there is a high demand for that and that is fine but I pretty much just got irritated by them every time I watched them for some reason. Western super hero tropes do the same to me so it is not the problem with anime itself, I am just clearly not the target audience.

I dislike Dementia (Or Avant Garde now, i think) because of how weird and stupid they are. No offense to fans.

Of real genre's, i'm gonna go with Mecha. Seeing giant robots fighting has never appealed to me and i'm kind of glad i didn't grow up in the 70's or 80's when it was the primary genre

Shonen as well. Aside from the nostalgic ones like Yugioh, Pokemon, Naruto, etc., it's a genre i kinda just avoid.
My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine.

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

IDGAF whatever category these are in, but I pretty much have watched and enjoyed at least one anime for each... but the fewest I've liked are from:

[Female] Idols
Mahou Shoujo
Isekai

An anime from any of these^ categories can make me scream "SHUT UP!!!" in about 3 seconds, and the squeaky, giggly, busty girls spinning around in frilly skirts and all the PINK makes me get nauseous. Yes that includes even in isekai. It's stupid. I'll pass.

- Comedy

- Harem (and Reverse Harem)
- Hentai
- Battle Shounen
- Idol-Related Music
- Yaoi
- Yuri
- Mecha

Of course there are exceptions I like or am interested in from all of these, but generally these are the ones I'll find myself liking less or be less interested in seeking out to watch to start with.

It's not really a genre, but I'm bad with Gag Humor (and for similar reasons Parody and sometimes Ecchi)
Not all Gag Humor is the same, but it quickly blurs the line between what's part of the story or the characters and what's just a joke without any consequences. It makes it hard to empathize and to immerse myself. I also dislike gags that are simply "hey, this person got hurt/is forced into an uncomfortable situation for no good reason"

Probably military or War based anime. I have seen some that I've been able to stomach, but other than the side from those handful I find them painfully boring.

I think I had originally deemed the below to be my least favorites.

  • Action: I see this on an anime, and I generally hesitate to watch it. Action heavy anime are normally too boring for me.
  • Avant Garde: I'm too damn stupid for this shit. If you don't slap a CinemaSins-paced scene-by-scene explanation in front of my face, I won't understand it.
  • Ecchi: I'm too damn gay for this shit. If you don't slap a cock in front of my face, I won't understand it.
  • Gore/Guro: Nonononononononono.
  • Harem: Still haven't tried to soften up to this, with only one real exception.
  • Hentai: Nah.
  • Idols: Refuse.
  • Mecha: Not enough exposure to it to have much of an opinion, but fighting-centric anime generally bore the fuck outta me, so that makes mecha pretty hard for me to find an entry-point into.
  • Space: This one's no longer valid, since the Ginga Tetsudou 999 movies were easily some of the best Toei movies I've ever watched. Clearly this genre must have some other anime that I'd also love.

Harem. No woman I've ever met acts like a harem female character. It's purely a caricatured fantasy for master debaters.

Even worse when it takes over a previously female-only series by introducing the boring male equivalent of Poochie.

Hentai, Ecchi, Harem in that order. I can tolerate SOME harem though, but it's rare. The other two genres are just a no. To me they're just cringy as hell.

Hentai, never did and never will care for it.
Besides the obvious answer, Avant Garde. I actually like Avant Garde to a certain degree but I feel like it's almost always overstaying its welcome in anime.

A few years ago it would have been Sports, but then I watched 'Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru' and since then quite like it and have watched a bunch more such as Slam Dunk.

Hentai. All forms of it. Just a definite no.

BL is full of r*pey tropes from what I've heard and seen so probably that. Of course there are exceptions I'm sure, but it doesn't interest me much on average.

Sports. I'm not someone who enjoys watching sports much, I find it pretty boring a lot of the time.

Overall though, I try to be pretty open-minded and give different things a try.

The answer is always ecchi. I don't understand why people watch ecchi, do people goon to ecchi? Why not just watch hentai then? What's the difference?

BL / GL are okay, I used to love GL and watch BL but I've cooled off on those, got really sick of the fandom forcing BL/GL ships in normal anime, like MHA fandom going hard on the BL ships.

Just a year ago, I would have said mecha shows. However, I've been watching a lot of Gundam recently and this shit hits hard. So, maybe isekai? Actually, probably gay/yaoi romance shows. Don't have any real interest in watching those kinds of shows. Or maybe horror.

Gourmet and Sports don't do much for me. Isekai has to have a real good story and characters and unfortunately 95% of them don't. And CGDCT get's very tiring soon.
