| For me personally I really like Izayoi. He is not only a badass, but a confident badass at that. Much more refreshing than the stuttering, drooling idiot we normally get for male leads who get smacked around by all the girls and the bad guys until the last 30 secs of the last episode where they finally "power-up" and or gain some balls. Granted I don't want to see him flawlessly winning every battle with his pinky toe, but right now I'm enjoying his take charge attitude. |
| It's really preference, I agree with the comment above saying how cliche weak character they usually make the protagonist. Everyone also seems to be smarter then the usual anime characters. Now I don't like battle animes, so it the perfect amount of action for me. I actually think this anime should be a little higher (low 8's). Also the great thing about their power is we don't know everything about them yet. Why limit all their power by episode 4? |

| People see something from different side. You can says that this is bad from side a but it will be looked good from side b. Nothing can please all people. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| It's amazing how people fail to see that there can be different views from their own, you act as if it's something revolutionary that people like a series that you don't find special... |

| becuz its nice to see a character that isn't abused constantly by the girls around him?? also, no shana/nagi or other tsundereloli's a likable and bad@$$ MC. characters actually having, god forbid......fun dog days is a very similar anime to this, and its getting its third season. again; a character that isn't abused constantly by the girls around him?? also, no shana/nagi or other tsundereloli's a likable and bad@$$ MC (in a different way) characters actually having, god forbid......fun |

To each their own, though you are watching way too much anime to find enjoyment out of seeing a main character not abused, or specifically targeting anime which harrow over overused stereotypes, which ironically enough, this anime does indeed have. Really, Izayoi's insultive and demeaning arrogance, especially towards the heroine is just as bad and annoying as a girl slapping a guy for something they done in the wrong. Hmm to me you just sound pissed that Izayoi teased Kurousagi a bit, everyone teases Kurosagi she is very teaseable look at episode 4, it is kind of the joke. Or you mad he pulled her ears in episode 4 when she was on in a rage? He just stopped her from making a mistake and cracked a joke at the same time, or should he have thrown his arms around her and cried out for her to stop and shed tears of despair? Maybe he is arrogant as you say but really it is just confidence, he has no problem working with people and has mixed in with the group well, he did listen to Shiroyasha and let her test them, he is a generally kind person who is supporting Jin as well and it is not like he just fights his way through everything he stopped fighting Leticia when he was told who she was and before that he had even promised Jin to help get her back. |

| still good for me :v |
| This anime is fun to watch doesn't makes me feel depressed or something like that I like good male lead and dat blue rabbit with some meat |
| I think it's because people were expecting something different, so this series ended up surpassing expectations. Low expectations give a show more credibility I guess. I also think people like change of character types. For me, idk, I just like this show for some reason. |
| not realy liking or disliking this show sofar. its really nothing special but it also wasnt hyped into oblivion and it doesnt do really anything wrong. its kind of a brain off show for me. as it is now its 6/10 at best. |
| It's like because the main characters arent done or weak. We finally get an anime where everybody has common sense and is pretty strong. |

| I find your question a little hard to answer, I haven't rated this show. For starters I would agree with some of the thing that have been mentioned in previous comments, for example, I as most of us had really low expectations of this show when I started watching it, but it was better than I expected and that really helps, also having a tough MC instead of a weakling is refreshing. I was really getting tired of the cliched main character being lame and becoming less lame and supposedly more likable through the series. Also the MC being abused and hated and at the end being liked by most. I understand if you expect the rating to be fair and unbiased but they aren't. Most people, like me, (this I'm guessing) rate the shows by how much they liked them, not by how deep the story was, or the character development, the music, the art, etc. Like a ton of people (guessing again), I've been mislead by the ratings of more than one show here in MAL, a good example would be K-ON! although I didn't disliked it, it wasn't worth an 8 but still it has it, and i went and watched it expecting a really good slice of life and ended being dissapointed. I would suggest you read some reviews and comments, watch the trailer, ask in the forums what's to like about a series instead of taking serious the rating number, but I only say this thinking that you give some importance to this number, if you do not, please dismiss this suggestion. supermegasonic said: it's becuz there IS so much anime that have girls abusing guys that i'm finding this so much more enjoyable. the worst he's physically done is pull bunny girls ear. the worst girls have done is literally kill the MC. and that was apparently "funny" and yes, he's a sterotype, just like 99% of every character in anime. but the last time i saw this particular one is from kaze no stigma.

Currently watching everything that comes out to avoid missing something good... |
| It will go down after its end or maybe not if it's keep up. |
| I just find to be quiet entertaining overall, I don't give a darn if others hate it. I just love to watch anime and that is all that matters <3 |
 |
| the main is too cocky for me but still going to watch |

| I like this because: IMO MC's like Izayoi are fun to watch, I like when the MC is OP, I know there are people who don't like that though I love Kurousagi, she's so cute/funny lol I think the characters have cool powers, that's a plus for me cuz I like stuff like that, my favorite kind of movies are superhero movies mostly for that reason I really like both the OP and ED, can't really explain why on that one but, the beginning one is cool and the ending one is funny soo those are some of the reasons I like it :D |
| Well, I enjoy it cuz Izayoi is badass, and overpowered. Besides that, this show is just normal I think. |

A-Knight said: This anime totally breaks the abusive female-lame male lead shit that has been plaguing shounen for the past few years. It was a device made to cater to slobbering masochistic otaku, and it needs to die. Also, the plot can go beyond the terrible formula of "lose, go emo, train, win with plot armor" since the main cast is competent. This show knows how to use it's characters too. Izayoi is badass and strong, but he needed Asuka and You's help to win the game in episode 5. Each of the three mains is competent in his/her own way and gets to shine, Izayoi more so, but it's to be expected since he's the central MC. Err.. abusive female and lame male lead is not typical to 'shounen' genre, it is existed harem genre, it is existed in ecchi genre, but not on ALL shounen genre, especially in action genre where typical shining knight in a white horse cliche is still abused to this day. Also I see this series has plot armor as thick as basement cellar. Heck, that is the reason I can enjoyed this show, you don't have to make sense of everything, and Izayoi is a god with nigh invulnearability. Izayoi don't need anyone, he only needs someone or something to entertain him. Just like Zeus loathe at puny mortals that tries to defies him. Haha, Izayoi will teach you a lesson with his godly fists. |

| The most important things in life is the people that you care about |
A-Knight said: Izayoi doesn't really have plot armor. Plot armor is when a character performs way outside the realm of their established ability because the plot demands it. Good example is sudden power ups during fights or winning because you are more "determined" than the other guy. Izayoi is just a really strong established character. No, Izayoi is a god. A deus ex machina. Strong established character would be an understatement. |

| If people like the show because of how "badass" Izayoi is, then why doesn't Hagure Yuusha no Estetica have a higher score cause Ousawa Akatsuki is way more badass than Izayoi, haha. I enjoy the show but it's nothing special to me so far. Everyone has different tastes though, so don't worry too much about the ratings on this site. |

| because overpowered protagonists |

Sophilia said: Haters gonna hate. ^ |
| I think the answers pretty simple. Because most people have been dumbed down so horribly by anime cliches like maid girls, overly powerful characters, hot chix, saggy big boobs, pantie shots, etc... that if an anime doesn't have all that and more perversion, then people hate it. It's the sad aspect that has become anime it seems. No more originality. After Hayao Miyazaki dies, it'll be gone for good I'm sure. Although there's still "some" original animes produced every now 'n then. Real good anime died after the mid-late 90's ended. |

A deus ex machina. Strong established character would be an understatement. He's rather weak compared to the strongest characters in that universe. He's like a freshly dinged lvl 85(when that was the level cap) in WoW, beating up on low levels. |
| Coz it is lovable..lol Seriously,it is awesome.The characters esp. main guy is cool & kuro usagi is just too cute..Other girls are nice.plus the plot is executed properly so a lot of good points. They can do a lot with it. The ending song & opening songs are so awesome as well Plus it is a action.totally worthy of 9 points & may be 10 if ended awesomely. |
 |
| IDK. i like how it doesnt really take things seriously. It's also quite different from the usual action, since Izayoi seems invincible, and has no problems dealing with anything. I find that refreshing. But it all comes down to one thing in the end: Kurousagi. |

| The series is 'light hearted' and fun to watch, I don't really think Izayoi is way overpowered concidering how powerful the others in 'the garden, or what they called it' are going to be.. probably and I hope he stays 'overpowered', I've seen too much weak lead characters training and failing over and over again to finally at the last ep have superpowers, save the world etc.. it's just not fun. Someone mentioned that Izayoi is a stereotype and his powers and arrogance are in the way of 'good writing' really? Do people really think some character personas that doesn't fit a 'good writing' niche won't have a chance at all? I actually haven't crossed many MC's that remind me of Izayoi, by overpowered I get reminded of the MC from Katanagatari and maybe Toua from One Outs (for being such a smart badass) and both of them are really good. There's just too many weak male leads getting bossed around by the girls in their own harem in shounen anime for me to want Izayoi to be anything else than he is ._. I also enjoy his character because he reminds me of Miko hehe..+++ Now I think this show has a pretty good rating because it's actually a very very decent anime, most, not all of course, but most anime that I've seen and and has aired the last year have been.. very bad -.- |
