Whenever I search an Anime that I want to watch or looking for some Anime that will my friends suggests on me. Sometimes I see Hentai Anime Series. I kinda don't like seeing it because I personally don't like watching Hentai so I want to suggest that MAL should actually remove the Hentai Series from the Anime List and create a different list for them. So I'm suggesting to have three list; Anime, Manga and Hentai. Also, some of my younger nephews search for Anime that they want to watch here and I don't want to expose them in they're early age on R18+ stuffs so I'm really just suggesting this thought of mine. Thanks for reading...

If you use advanced search and pick which genres you want, hentai won't appear.
And if you have it on your list already it's kinda impossible to hide anyway, they won't make a new list just for hentai, but if you want to search for the hentai from your list you can always use the rating.

MAL is a database. You don't exclude things from a database because of subjective preferences. Hentai is per definition anime (or manga). Thus, it should be part of it. Same reason Adolf Hitler is technically in the database due to being the original author of Mein Kampf, which does have a manga adaptation. No amount of people finding this offensive is going to change the fact that logically he should be in here, and thus he is. Deal with it. Furthermore, it's only database listings. It's not like you're actually opening up anything NSFW just by seeing a hentai title pop up in a list of search results. Hell even the covers are censored if necessary here on MAL

If you're really picky though, you can always just use Advanced Search and use the exclude genres feature and select hentai; that way they'll be filtered out. Also the Seasonal anime tab has a checkmark box for R18+ shows so you can toggle whether you want them listed or not

It's not happening. Also, all hentai anime and manga images on the site are censored so there's practically nothing R18 on the site. If they search for hentai that they saw here, well that's a whole different story.
"At some point, I stopped hoping."

I wasn't saying that I want to exclude. I just want to separate them from the non-hentai Anime Series, but what you said is actually the fact and I can't change that even in a hundred years so I'll just have to deal with it anyway.

Thanks for the advice to use the advance search though...

I asked this question years ago, specifically to just have a separate area to list and discuss hentai, and it was denied

more like mal should just add a feature that allows you to set what you don't want to see like most sites have, something like '' no explicit content'' button. i think that would be best for everybody, because i personally will always watch some hentai if it somehow sneaks into my suggestions/search bar, why not, i have no problems with it.

Last time I checked this site was about anime/manga.
