<p>I usually go <a href="https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/search/genre" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> to find new anime to watch, the genres are not sort able but it has a lot of themes to select other than just genre and it helps a lot when you want to find something you like, it also has a button in every anime page to search based on that anime's information.<br>

going by your last sentence this might be related: [Are there any anime suggestion engines?](https://anime.stackexchange.com/q/7337/1587). i would assume they also have lists of genres

@Darjeeling precisely! I could copy paste all of those into a nice list but it feels kind of wrong for me to take credit for it when I'm not the one who found it

I usually go [here](https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/search/genre) to find new anime to watch, the genres are not sort able but it has a lot of themes to select other than just genre and it helps a lot when you want to find something you like, it also has a button in every anime page to search based on that anime's information.
