I'm very picky when it comes to anime and manga so here's an explanation of my likes and dislikes.

Plot Progression:

It needs plot progression. I cannot watch a show where the plot stagnates, making me hate genres like: Slice of Life's, Romance, Fantasy, genres where nothing happens. And I think that's reasonable, a show where nothing happens is no different than watching paint dry, nothing happens. No one can convince me that because a show that is "cute", or "wholesome", means it's automatically good without character progression, and plot progression.

Examples of this: Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Stars Align, Go For It, Nakamura-kun!!, Witch Hat Atelier.

Misery Porn:

This ties into plot progression, shows that are "depressing", and "sad", just for the sake of being sad without the MC striving to change themselves. Again this is a show, or a book, with no plot progression. Why should I watch a show where the entire plot is "woe is me" insted of "Life isn't going my way so I'll change it myself".

Examples of this: Takopi's Original Sin, WataMote, Girls Band Cry, 5 Centimeters per Second.

"Romance" Anime's

Now, I don't mind romance, but most romance anime's have zero romance in them. Most romance anime's is just a game of cat and mouse. No one actually gets together, the plot never actually starts, the only romance that happens that happens is the characters getting embarrassed. It's just annoying seeing an anime titled as romance, when no romance actually ensue.

Examples of this: OneRoom, Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms, Recovery of an MMO Junkie, MARRIAGETOXIN.

"Comedy" Anime's

Comedy is subjective and I am allowed to have my opinion that anime is not funny. There's like only what? 5 comedy anime's. Anime is so unbelievably unfunny, comedy in anime consists of fan service, ecci, slapstick, and poorly done deadpan humor. I don't understand how people find anime funny, and it annoys me more seeing "Comedy" anime labeled as "Comedy"

Examples of this: Blend S, FLCL, Dragon Maid, Panty & Stocking, Mashle.
