Titles that contain characters who suffer from depression would fall into this category if this is of significant importance for the storyline.
Acquired Taste: These are titles which may take a while to get used to. As such, you should watch several episodes before making up your mind. FLCL, Di Gi Charat, & Serial Experiments Lain are examples of such titles.
