These Categories were killed for good:

  • Rivalry <-- Nearly every anime has some sort of rivalry, could've been used as a placeholder, but no point, really
  • Characters <-- contained too specific cases that were mostly useless
  • Genre <-- was fully replaced by Elements
  • Black Comedy <-- too few examples for that in anime
  • Satire <-- too few examples for that in anime
  • Intrigue <-- same as Thriller
  • Mystery <-- seems rather pointless with it's subcats moved
  • Drama <-- redundant without it's subcats
  • Presentation <-- just a classification cat and not used anyway
  • Plot <-- just a classification cat and not used anyway
  • WWI <-- i have serious trouble thinking of a ww1 anime ww2 is a common setting, but www1 O_o maybe one for the time period around the beginning of the meiji era/bakumatsu and stuff. that's a common reused setting
  • Western <-- too few anime in that cat, Early Reins being the only real western, others have elements of it, mainly gunfights, but are fantasy/sci-fi in theme: Trigun, Wild Arms, Gun Frontier, Cosmo Warrior Zero and possibly some other Leji stuff.
  • Priests <-- not important at all.
  • Magicians <-- Magic -> people using magic -> magicians useless
  • Detectives <-- Detective -> Detectives duh
  • Reporters <-- pointless
  • Vehicles <-- classifying cat and useless after subcats are gone
  • Soldiers <-- if there is military there are soldiers -> pointless
  • Pilots <-- if there is military there are soldiers -> pointless
  • Office <-- h setting cat, but rather pointless IMHO
  • Hospital <-- h setting cat, seldom played out in regular anime to an extent where it is useful
  • Mansion <-- h setting cat, but rather pointless IMHO
  • Prison <-- o_O why was that added?
  • Moon <-- rather pointless. How many anime that are set on the moon are there? 2? 3? who cares
  • Straight <-- pointless. it's the good old "other" cat
  • Wilderness <-- pointless as well
  • Desert <-- pointless as well
  • Jungle <-- pointless as well
  • Wasteland <-- pointless as well
  • Scientists <-- uhhhh right
  • Teachers <-- at school there are teachers... so i got told
  • Astronauts <-- if there is space there are... yeah you get the drift
  • Faeries <-- never really used as an important part of the anime. at most some ignoreable sidechars
  • Spirits <-- never really used as an important part of the anime. at most some ignoreable sidechars
  • Princesses <-- unimportant
  • Monks <-- unimportant
  • Space <-- doublecat

  • Mechanical <-- rather pointless
  • Space Opera <-- probably not needed
  • Steampunk <--- probably not needed
  • Justice <-- I dunno why/where this has gone lol?
  • Slice of Life <-- half covered by coming out of age, but stuff like ykk stays unclassified, replaced by Daily Life?
  • Comic Fantasy = Fantasy elements / appropriate fantasy setting + comedy
  • Character Development <-- just a classification cat and not used anyway
  • Gore <-- pointless as well, can be covered by weigh using Violence
  • Monster <-- pointless as well, was abused and added to anime with no horror elements at all
  • Assassins <-- pointless as well, very rarely used
  • Submarine <-- doublecat
  • Artificial Intelligence <-- there is rarely an anime centred around this. usually you just deal with androids
  • Pirates <-- too detailed and too lil' examples of useful usage. covered by Underworld
  • Thieves <-- too detailed and too lil' examples of useful usage. covered by Underworld
