There are $$$O(\infty)$$$ different things that have mentioned in some problem statement on Codeforces and not only it. This is the top of the most interesting and common ones. Place distribution based on my observations

Thanks to creative problemsetters for so various and interesting world of competitive programming problems!

I'd place "love and romance" much higher, since the arrays that Vasya and Tanya give each other because of love seem to appear in every other contest

Fact that there are more crimes than fun in problem statements is quite unnerving

    About 5% of contests have anime characters in all its problems. Almost always they are young girls. So about 5% of Codeforces problems have anime girls

    For example, this round — Codeforces Round 635 (Div. 2) — even with pictures!

How is Chess & (Kings, Knights, Castles, etc.) are different category? Anyways I believe problems statements involving color, flowers, and candies are fun to solve.
