For me, they are unnecessary lolis, plot armors, incest, and fanservice out of nowhere.

The seven sins of anime.

1. Terrible story writing. Examples include fillers, rushed/horrible endings, and when an anime suddenly spends half of their episodes on that one side arc that is apparently "important" to the main story.

2. Uninteresting plot. These are things such as forced romance, an extremely predictable plot, and shows that take themselves too seriously.

3. Boring dialogues. Most commonly found in shows that like to infodump random crap or talk about some stupid morality issues.

4. Overused jokes. The old "tsundere beats up MC" or "MC accidentally does some perverted act". Even worse, it gets reused throughout the show which makes it painful to bear watching.

5. Cliched character designs. These are characters that have no detailed background information about themselves and can be described with just a word or two. This is so common it's not even funny. Luckily, it's not something that can detrimentally ruin the quality of an anime as many great anime have gotten away of this, but it's still a problem I see.

6. Annoying characters. When you got a character whose designs are not only stereotypical but irritating as well, that is a red sign that I should just stop watching. These include main characters who lack common sense, bipolar tsundere brats, and Mary Sue/Gary Stu.

7. Unnecessary sexual themes. Fanservice in perverted and ecchi anime are fine. The problem is when it starts being present spontaneously out of nowhere in anime that shouldn't have these to begin with.

Definitely it forced fan service and incest (you know what I mean....) I just want to rip my head off when I see this

IMO, lack of incest (Oreimo)

A lot of factors can make an anime go bad, it's really down to execution a lot of the time.

My personal pet peeve seems to be a common trend in shitty LN adaptations lately, though, which is overusage of exposition to world-build instead of taking advantage of the fact that animation is a visual medium. Why tell the viewer about the exact circumstances of the world when you can showcase the complexity of the world through on-screen action? Usage of exposition also takes away a sense of there being anything at stake in the actions the characters make, which makes the show a lot less compelling to watch.

That and to just hear someone lecture you about a world created to justify an escapist power fantasy is extremely boring.

(also don't defend it as being "faithful to the source material"; when you're adapting something to a different medium, you need changes to be made to make it not be absolutely boring)

Maybe it's only a problem with me, but I just get annoyed when a character is standing in front of another person and cannot thing what to say, so the character has a self conversation in his/her own mind for about 30 seconds and the other character is just ok with it.

Listening to other peoples' reasoning for not liking something helps you understand different viewpoints and makes you a more critical viewer. It's healthy.
Ikikaera
Oversized breasts.
Horrible main character.
Childish 'design'
Boring plot
Yaoi, even when it's just for a few seconds in the whole Anime
Shitty ending. Not looking at you, Mahou Sensou (At least if it doesn't get a 2nd season.)

Animes that try too hard to be good are usually bad~
MrPop
An idiot and clumsy guy who have a harem :roll:
yurunneram
stupid ending where the SIDE CHARACTERS ARE LEFT UNCONCLUDED
kagaminelenz
Too predictable / straight-forward plot
Too many episodes (In my case, I dislike anime with more that 25 episodes), except it splitted to few part like monogatari series
A perfect and/or stupid MC, dense MC
Anime that have too light plot. I can say, children plot (exclude comedy and yuri of course :3)
Over popular anime (because so many fags that like that anime, and denied other anime)
Bad artwork
Lewder
filler
airhead girl character
bones
kyoto animation
trying to do what another anime has done but adding yuri to it (fuck off akuma no riddle)
yuri as the main plot device
late for school jam on toast run in first episode
tumblr

Generic plot.
Excesive use of generic jokes.

I dropped Durarara. The plot progression feels slow. I dropped it after I watched episode 3

That's why I won't dropped every anime (including some shitty ones) if I already started to watch It
*always doing some reviews first before start watching a show

if you watch every shitty anime tho then you know that all the other ones are less shitty thus increasing you appreciation of them
why does nobody understand this
