Because most of it uses overly simplistic characters. There’s no depth to them. They’re good because they’re good, they’re bad because they’re bad.

No nuance!

The stories are overly simplistic too.

Not all of them are like this, but enough of them are that I’m just tired of the genre.

I disagree with you but you answered the question, so take your upvote.

Still, anime is just a medium, and there is wide variety of content, some with simplistic characters, and some without.

Oh for sure, there’s some really great ones that don’t fit my generalisation.

The problem is that too many do fit it. And all the biggest ones seem to.

Anyways, you’re right.
