List of All Anime Genres, Ranked Best to Worst
Not every anime genre is created equal - and there's plenty of room for debate about which ones qualify as the best. Maybe you're a seinen fan who left shounen behind years ago because you realized that it was starting to feel kind of predictable. Maybe you love shoujo and iyashikei but find mecha to be utterly boring. You may be a huge harem fan or you may find the genre distasteful. Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to anime genres - what are yours?
