So tell me what's your favourite anime genre and why is it?
You can mix these genre as well

Also, what kind of story plot or characters that you would like to see in an anime?
For example: Someone that is badass and never gets beaten by everyone or someone that is funny but does not speak much at all

These are the example of genres :

Action, Adventure, Cars, Comedy, Dementia, Demons, Drama, Ecchi, Fantasy, Game, Harem, Historical, Horror, Josei, Kids, Magic, Martial Arts, Mecha, Military, Music, Mystery, Parody, Police, Psychological, Romance, Samurai, School, Sci-Fi, Seinen, Shoujo, Shoujo Ai, Shounen, Shounen Ai, Slice of Life, Space, Sports, Super Power, Supernatural, Thriller, Vampire, Yaoi, Yuri

Agreed, it's the first LN I've ever bought and it's great.

Did you buy all of the LN of Youjo Senki???

Pretty much action, sports, mecha and things like that. It's easier to say which ones I don't like that much: which is drama (most of it it's too overdramatic and slow *corf *corf Clannad *corf) and slice of life. Comedy... depends.
I don't like ecchi either because it's purely fanservice and I personally find it quite childish. I don't mind scenes where characters are naked or whatever, it's just the way ecchi anime treats that kind of thing, you know? I don't know how to explain it; yeah, childish, puerile.
Ah, yeah, and there's harem which it's either like this: 1. full of girls = tons of silly fanservice 2. full of boys: boooooooring zzzzzz (except Hakuouki, lol, Brothers Conflict was utterly boring for example though).

There are exceptions to everything, obvs.

So you like fast paced action animes? I see

Ah i see, but do you have any anime title as an example?

Oregairu, Hyouka, Noragami, chunnibyou, k-on, a lot more.

I'm currently watching Hyouka and I stopped watching chunnibyou as it got too weird :v

Cyberpunk, action, psychological, sci-fi, and super power are the ones that I enjoy the most. Now I did watch small bits of anime when it came on Fox at about 5 a.m. on Saturdays as a kid. However my experience with these shows was extreamly limited at the time. I tend to miss most of the shows because it was way too early in the morning for me.

Now flash forward a few years when Sci-Fi channel became a thing on most major providers. This was the time that I found anime. Now this is a few years before Toonami was a thing, and at this time Sci-Fi was having regular theme week anime movies every night for the month. It started with cybepunk anime week. The first anime movie I ever watched was Ghost in the Shell, and right after that was Galaxy Express 999: The Movie. These two classics were the start of my love for not only anime but the genre as well.

Wow that level of dedication of actually waking up at 5 just to watch anime as a kid, i salute you hahaha
Yes tv channels premiering animes are getting quite common nowadays which is great because it increases the productivity of new anime as they would get profit easily now

yes and no. no to the "no cliches" part because art will always have tropes; which is its structure.
although what does matter though, is the creativity embraced in the subversion of tropes & ideas.

Ah sorry, I got the wrong idea haha. I do agree on the structure point.
So the 'metamancing' you meant was the creativity of the plot
I see

For anime / ecchi, i prefer if there's romance mixed in with tsundere-ism

For hentai, i like anything, apart from goru and scat

Tsundere characters are increasing, although they are mostly not the main character...

I rate that anime a 7.9/10. Although, Cory Baxter is quite an ideal anime character

Ursprünglich geschrieben von kundie:

I guess umineko's genre is 'mystery'

Ya same here (both on the action and avoiding harem)

If I had to pick an absolute fave genre, Sci-fi, particularly with an action or psychological sub-genre. Examples? Ghost in the Shell, Trigun, Ergo Proxy, Psycho Pass, Gun x Sword, Bubblegum Crisis.
