Do you like the top 100 ranking?

Do you agree with most of the rankings? Do you think they are good indicators of quality and something worthy to take into account when deciding to watch something?

What are your thoughts in general?

Even though I don't necessarily agree with the rankings, I gotta say I enjoyed most of the highly rated anime.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

As for their specific placement, some I don't agree with. The ones that I've seen are usually well deserving of the place they're in.

It sucks. Gankutsuou, Kuuchuu Buranko, Kaiji, Black Jack 1993 Ova,Noein should be in the top 100. Also why is Steins Gate no. 2 while Noein is 761?

I haven't really seen all the top animes, so I really can't answer. But, I know they are put in that rank for a reason.

Everyone has their own tastes, but the top 100 is the majority consensus.

And I do not agree with it.

I don't even agree with the top 20 really (and this isn't even Gintama related), but I've never gone through the first 100 to see my entire opinion on it. I assume based on the top 30-40 alone there's lots of movies and sequels to things I probably haven't seen though.

No I don't use it to determine what I'll watch, I generally look at my friends stats and other people's lists/opinions on here I respect and secretly stalk to determine the quality of a show.

Nothing really. I never care for rankings most of the time, not anymore at least. And especially not in a western fansite like MAL.

I don't use them as in indicator of any sort of quality, especially not when stuff like (Fairy Tail, Rainbow, Clannad, Kill la Kill, Ano hana, One Piece, Gintama, Steins Gate movie, Haruhi's movie, Chihayafruru 2, Hellsing ultimate, SnK, TTGL, FMA:B,) are in it.

I hate the fact that neither Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, nor Dragon Ball Kai made it into the Top 100.

However, I find it very interesting (and am glad) that both Hunter x Hunter 1999 and Hunter x Hunter 2011 made it into the Top 100. Even Fullmetal Alchemist 2003 isn't in the Top 100, while Brotherhood ranks #1. Also glad that Samurai Champloo makes it into the Top 100.

Too many Gintama's in the Top 100. It's pretty much the only anime franchise I have a problem with being in the Top 100. I also don't like how Howl's Moving Castle is in the Top 100. I haven't watched every anime that is in the Top 100, so I cannot really comment on every anime that's there.

Haven't seen most of the top 100 but that's because my taste is too different from general opinion. Most of the time I can see why people would enjoy the shows up there, but a lot of them don't do it for me.

You can disagree with some. But if you do with most you should look in the mirror very closely fast. I acknowledge most anime though. Even those who i rated a 7. It's like i can see it has quality but while watching for me it felt a 7. Still does not mean i think it does not deserve it's place on this high rating. MAL is the biggest internet rating site after all. All people should look in the mirror before they judge a anime in the top 30 since humanity is not more crazy than the disliker.

I enjoyed quite a few series on that list so I'm fine with it. Though quite a few anime there are movies/sequels/OVAs of existing anime on that list so you've got around 50-70 different series there.

Not to mention the fact that it's a sequel of a long runner, which gives it an even bigger boost (look at Fairy Tail 2014 and you'll see what I mean).

That's only for people who don't watch it past a certain episode. What's the chance of someone watching DB, possibly DBZ, DBZ kai, and then not watching all of DBZ kai 2014? It's low. Won't really raise it.

My bad, I might have misunderstood it at first. But still it's not going to be a much bigger boost, it will probably be the same as kai.

That is true, and I would say that most, if not all, of the top 100 anime are at least above average, however, airing shows do tend to sometimes quickly make it to the top 100, mainly due to popularity/hype.

If you disregard the inherent bias of the bump in ratings sequels get for weeding out many of the people who didn't like season 1, it's a solid list. Nothing perfect, but no "top 100 ____" list ever is. Think of it as a litmus of good anime. The grand majority of what is in there is very good stuff... with some exceptions... seriously guys, Rainbow? Are you kidding?

I think it has more to do with viewership and popularity. Steins Gate isn't that much better than Noein but Steins Gate is a lot more well known and more people have see it than Noein. If everyone who watched Steins Gate also watched Noein I doubt there would still be such a big gap between their rankings.

Not that much better in your opinion. And appeal affects it. To most communities, Steins;Gate has more appeal most likely.

Steins Gate just has teenaged characters and a better ending, that's it. Besides the characters there is nothing really that makes Steins Gate more appealing.

Great first half, terrible (mostly) unnecessary second. I'd be fine with it in the top 100 on the first half alone, but the second half drags it way down.

I guess that makes me one of the few here who actually liked the second half. Some might deem it unnecessary but it did serve as a good "extended aftermath" in my opinion. The tone was different compared to the first half and as such the change is annoying to some.

I don't really mind them in particular. I haven't seen half of them so I shouldn't get mad about the ranking anyways. Although I think Bleach should be there. I can see why it's not there. It's just my opinion and of course a lot of people disagree, but it's just what I think.
