I'm rather picky when it comes to anime, but I do appreciate the ones I like, and I'm open to making exceptions and changing my mind from time to time.
The ones on my lists are pretty much set in stone, though. The ones I completed I have enjoyed, and I'd like to see more of them. The ones I have dropped I haven't enjoyed, and likely won't ever go back to them.
Primarily, though, my enjoyment of anime seems to depend my preference of art styles and the quality of animation. On one end of the scale is Ghibli - the art style is very comfortable to look at, and, being a movie studio, the animation is superb. On the other end of the scale in terms of art style is Clannad (the art style of which threw me off so much I could not get past the first episode) and, in terms of animation, your typical shounen anime (sometimes they're barely above slideshow status).
And that appears to be the general rule behind whether I enjoy a certain show or not. More specific, genre-oriented preferences are as follows:
Types of Anime I Dislike:
Shounen
Harem
Mecha
Slice-of-Life
Action
Types of Anime I Like:
Anime with a comfortable art style
Anime with good quality animation (eg movies)
I'm open to making exceptions to the dislike list, and have in the past (e.g. FMA, Usagi Drop).
Also, The fact that I dislike a certain genre doesn't mean I necessarily dislike shows with that genre's elements in it.
I also like comedy.
If you somehow dropped by my page, leave me a recommendation!
I can be a bit nitpicky and judgy, but I'm always looking out for fun shows to watch :D
