Oh, comedy? Why do you dislike it? Hehehe, it's actually one of my favorite genre 😉 .

As for me, I tend to dislike harem and smut. Smut makes me uncomfortable (and usually doesn't drive the plot forward), while I dislike most harem shounen because I usually don't like the characters. I enjoy reverse harem though (a girl's guilty pleasure).

Harem. It's mostly done in a bad way with tropes instead of characters and only exists to cater to otaku fetishes. Too few good harems out there.

I picked romance, but I'm not going to pretend I'm surprised by Harem's landslide victory.

I do enjoy unwanted harem comedies where the guy is stuck with a bunch of psychopaths, & BL harems are shockingly rare, but I'm not touching the serious dramatic angsty ecchi ones or Otome stuff.

Gender bender. It's either fetishistic pandering, or an overdone way to spice up an overdone plotline. I can't say that I hate it because there has been stories that I liked with it in. However most of the time it ruins the story. It's weird to me that it's even a genre.

Probably ecchi or yaoi. Ecchi because there has to be something interesting other than boobs to keep me reading lol...and if it's a manga where I'm supposed to be taking it seriously and there's random panty shots everywhere, it makes it hard to take it seriously.

Yaoi on the other hand is because so much of it is the same. The characters aren't distinguishable from one manga to the next most of the time, and it's basically all sex (which btw a lot of it isn't even consensual so... 😔 )

Ecchi. It comes off as totally absurd to me.

If its relevant to the point, sure. But most of the time, its only for fan-service, which I deem as unnecessary if the plot is good in the first place :l

I'm with the majority here, harem for sure. The argument that there are good harems out there falls flat when you realize that they are good regardless of the harem theme. I have yet to find a manga that is good because it's harem.
Ecchi is a close second, since it doesn't do absolutely nothing for a manga, and can take the reader out of the story. But this one at least can be tolerated more easily, if it's not overdone and doesn't pop up in dramatic scenes.

Ecchi, absolutely. I can tolerate and even enjoy harem at times -if only because it means a lot of characters to explore and have fun with! Ecchi though, it's really just gratuitous.
