The most common character stereotypes found in anime include, the yandere, kuundere, tsundere, to the wimpy harem male protagonist. What is the most gut wrenching anime stereotype that you can think of?

Mine personally is the yandere and specifically the character Yuno Gasai. Her psychotic infatuation for Yuki is not only a sign of her depravity, but she in turn has also become the face for the disturbing archetype itself.

Anime girls that say nya, it's not cute damnit! Neko girls in general I despise. Heck, any character remembered by their catch phrase gets on my nerve. Mayuri from Steins;Gate is a prime example.

Lucy in Elfen Lied is well known for saying nya...Lol. I think Mayuri says desu at the end of every sentence.

Any overly ditzy / cheery ko-gals tend to annoy me.
Also, any over-emotional teen male characters.
Also... any characters who act like a badass because of their intelligence, but are actually really weak. (such as Yagami Light from Death Note.)
Also, any characters who are just big, dumb brutes, and nothing more than just a bunch of muscle without any brains.
Also, I hate Yanderes, Kuuderes, Thugderes, and Himederes

Tsunderes are fine with me, but they can also be done poorly.
I think Danderes are usually pretty cute.

However, the most interesting characters are obviously the ones that don't fit into an archetype. The kind of characters that are varied and complex, just like real human beings, not boring, predictable, and one-dimensional like most of these archetypes.
