I kinda went the other direction where I had to cut out all anime. Too many fascist undertones and sexualizing children for it to be comfortable to watch for me.
Obviously not all shows/movies from anime do those but it's difficult to really know until you've already started watching and so it's safer to just cut it out.
I do like some of it, but far too often the story is going along fine and then it's like SURPRISE HAREM! SURPRISE SLAVERY (and the main character is fine with that). Too bad Crunchyroll doesn't have a tag for "not creepy".
I take extra care to avoid harem anime. I hate them too. Eventually, you learn to identify them from a distance. Harem anime tend to have a pretty identifiable look.
