| Idk, Sankarea is my #1 and it's tagged as horror and ecchi. Though debatable in both cases, I'd say. I think a horror/ecchi could work, though, because blood and titties feels like a good combo. Dunno about psychological horror, probably wouldn't like that approach to an ecchi anime. ---- Errrrrr, idk, I haven't really came across anything I'd say can't go well together somehow myself and can only really postulate, which would be psychological horror/ecchi, I guess.

I heard it's quite average :D I'm watching it atm and I think it's great Wasn't expecting it to be quite as fanservicey though, which I guess is just another case of "the ecchi tag on MAL is a joke," but then again I'm still kind of early into it so it might town down that sort of thing later |

| Rokka no Yuusha is the only work I know that manages to combine epic fantasy (the kind of fantasy about Chosen Ones and saving the world) with a classical detective. It's hard to be a proper detective in a world where anything is possible with magic, after all. AyameTomoko said: What combonation of two genres almost never work together?

Never seen those, the closest I know of is Irresponsible Captain Tylor, but it's a stretch to call it a harem. Still though, if they are.. we've got what, 3 possible contenders for that cross of genres? Pretty rare I think? |

| Psychological + ecchi. It doesn't work. |
 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |
| Horror & ecchi can go well together. 2 of my top manga's are horror ecchi and I really liked Sankarea & HOTD anime. Ecchi moments and Lust murder work pretty well for me. -- thought about action and SOL. I think thats the biggest one that almost never works. but Kino no Tabi was extremely enjoyable. |

Still though, if they are.. we've got what, 3 possible contenders for that cross of genres? Pretty rare I think? Geneshaft isn't really a harem. But their scientists determined that for a harmonious society (even on a warship) there should be 10 females per 1 male. Among many other silly things. Vandread is, however, a proper harem, about a guy (from a planet populated only by guys), getting into a battleship from a planet of women. They win the war by combining their mecha suggestively or something. |
CoolNameOmoenai said: Slice of life and action are like water and oil except for some few exceptions . Actually, I quite disagree with you on this. I think the majority of action anime have some slice of life. And here are a few good ones. Hunter x Hunter 2011 Magi the Labyrinth of Magic Grimgar SukaSuka Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Toaru Kagaku no Railgun MAL might not give most if not all of them the slice of life tag but they all use it to some extent. Some more than others. Plus I trust MAL on nothing. HxH and Fate Zero PG-13? Silly MAL. |

The serious part gave me goosebumps |

| Hentai, Kids. You can't legally aim hentai at a child audience, though Fairy Tail certainly tries. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| Yuri and yaoi. These two shouldn't go together for obvious reasons. |
 |
| yuri + harem a dense girl surrounded by hot girls it exists? |
 |
Yes. Hidan no Aria AA is an example, including the main girl being dense. But it's rare. |
| - Mecha and Ecchi/Harem (will never work in my book) - Psychological and Ecchi - Horror and Mecha - Sports and Horror - Comedy or even Ecchi and Horror |
 I will not believe that everything is controlled by fate. ll X ll |

Darek said: None. A show can mix different genres and it is always plausible to be a good combination when used correctly. I agree with this. It's all about the execution (and people taste.) Though, if I asked the least one that could work. I think Horror + Sport? |

| I can't imagine an anime with yuri and yaoi together .. that would hilarious ybh |
  "elles sont bien noires les pensées des nuits blanches"  |
| " A series can never be deep if it's harem/ecchi" |
| Someone mentioned a series with Yuri and Yaoi... it can work, like we got a couple, the boy is gay while the girl is also gay, the only reason why they started dating is because they're the most popular students at their school and people wouldn't stop bugging them on how they seem perfect for each other (also revealing their sexuality would cause many to frown upon them) so they ended up dating, but not out of love just to get people to stop being annoying but they still promise each other if they can find a partner for them who is also interested in the same sex they'll be fine with breaking up. I dunno, just gotta think a bit hard to make this stuff work (also I think there's an online manga series that features both Yaoi and Yuri couples...) |

ThatCynicalOtaku said: Iyashikei and horror. Seriously. How do you combine a genre that's meant to relax the audience, and a genre that's meant to scare them? Well, you get vampires, elder gods and a token human girl (all of them looking like cute girls) to meet, drink tea with cakes together, and find out the horrors aren't that bad after all. Also, I wonder if Gakkougurashi fits Iyashikei genre. It sure is a CGDCT anime. CoolNameOmoenai said: Slice of life and action are like water and oil except for some few exceptions . My favorite is Strike Witches franchise. They spend half their time being cute, and the other half fighting alien invaders. |
| Eroguro manga is a thing but it'd be hell to adapt. I'd love to see some serious attempts though. |
Well, it's horror. And it's a rare fetish. Not much in the way of intergalactic Space, but Regalia has loli and mecha. If you aren't particular about quantity (of lolis) and prefer quality, Demonbane has loli Necronomicon as the main heroine, and her fight is lovecraft-level epic. |
It isn't really cringe - but I would also neither call it a "true harem" nor "ecchi" (but the ED). It plays with situations known from such genres, but it doesn't play them straight. Still it shows how easily harem + ecchi + mecha/scifi can/could be in the same show. (I did not watch season2 because hated the drop in art&animation too much, but season 1 I found it entertaining, sometimes funny, sometimes interesting. and quite impressive 3D for a tv-series from back then - makes me wonder about their budget.) -------------- rarely done, but at least 2 out of 3 were successful: mecha + shoujo. |
