For those of us who don't know much about anime, it's divided into 5 types (according to aimed age)

Kodonuke: Aimed for children aged 5-10. Usually has simple themes and morals,

Ex: Doraemon, Ninja Hattori (NH is mmy freaking childhood)

Shoujo: Meant for young girls aged 10- 15. Usually has theme which aren't very drk, but are interesting. Also, most of the protagonists are female.

Ex: Sailor Moon, Ouran High School.

Shonen: Male counterpart of Shoujo. Is divided into further types like sports and playing card themed. My personal favourite.

Ex: Inazuma Eleven (sports), Yu-Gi-Oh (trading card themed), etc.

Josei: Meant for young women aged 15- 25.

Ex: 07-Ghost, Karneval.

Seinen: Male counterpart to Josei.

Ex: Code Geass (which is my life), Hellsing.

But there are also anime which don't fit into any of those categories, such as Zatch Bell and Death Note (both of which are my favorites) which are somewhere between Shonen and Seinen and then there's Elfen Lied, which is too disturbing for humanity.

And on the scale of how skinny the art style is, here's my answer:

Chibi : Nendoroids and Chibi artwork.

Kodonuke: Doraemon

Normal Skinny: Death Note

Code Geass Skinny: Code Geass.
