my rating system(I rate borderline entirely off of enjoyment as i feel otherwise feels robotic, though i make exceptions of course and do recognize flaws as well as hold show back due to them, but i do believe shows can make up for their flaws)
10: doesnt need to be perfect, its impossible to accurately describe but it needs to not only have no huge flaws but needs to do something extra that makes the anime stick with you months after its over, it needs to lave you with a special feeling permanently to get a 10/10, because of this over time many 10/10's turn into 9's on my list,
9: fantastic in every way, like i said many of my 10's become this, can get this for a plethora of reasons, great cast, amazing writing, fantastic twists, it goes on
8: great but flawed, something is holding it back but nothing to big that it takes away.
7: good but could be way better, while the show is enjoyable and does things right it may be held back by things such as fanservice, bad endings, or just never goes into the quality range of a 8-10 such as shows like special A
6: ok, may do some things right but its countered by the stuff that it does bad.
5: meh, boring, hard to sit through or the flaws overtake the pros unlike in a 6/10
4 straight up bad, it does do maybe a couple things right that i need to give it credit for but its still a drag on my mentally and is just all around awful
3: anything it sets out to do it fails and falls flat on its ass, the characters are beyond annoying, every episode gets worse and worse, overly filled with fan service to a extreme level, or most common, all of the above, this is for the shit of the shit, not just shit of the shit its the shit with more shit sprinkled on top.
2: this was just only recently added, basically these are saved for the shows that piss me off from how bad they were, this is an accomplishment on their part, especially since as writing this i have only seen 2 shows this bad
why i do not give out 1's
plain and simple, A: its unfair and seems like a drastic exaggeration of how bad a show is, but B: i simply have not seen a single show that could be that bad. I feel like the only shows people use 1's on usually seem to be form being butthurt or biased over it for whatever reason. If i see a show that bad then i will maybe reconsider but its going to be hard to find anything worse than Kimi ga Nozomu Eien and school days. So that day will likely never come.
last tid bit about me is that i never drop shows, i used to but i find that its just isnt fair, how am i going to honestly give a show a verdict if i cant even complete it, I always find the time to finish shows and i hope i always will.
everyone else is posting music so fuck it i will too
I always though killswitch was just another metalcore band, man was i wrong
"Being a fan of something is like having a penis.
It's normal to have one and it's nice to be proud of it. But for the love of god, don't pull it out in public and don't wave it in other's faces."
Having a pussy protagonist seems like part of a recipe for success this days, but shounen don't usually have them. They do, sometimes (I can think of Claymore and Hitman off the top of my head), but usually they're this badass dumb Goku-type character.
Eh, I'm guessing those characters weren't very important in the first place. Killing them gave you the notion of how dangerous the setting is, something which One Piece for example pretty much never did.
Hm, that might be the problem I guess, I mostly talk to PC gamers and only a few of them played the earlier ones. I played pretty much every single one, even for PSP...
Hm, which one is it exactly? :'D Too many NFS's coming out...
Also, since my favorite element of Burnout is road rage, I'm probably gonna miss that a lot...
Well I did ask for it. It's just that pretty much everone, including reporters/critics were praising it, so it kind of took me off guard when I read that someone who likes Burnout games in general, dislikes it.
'Bout the music, luckily you can turn tracks off, I turned of the damn Avril the first minute I started the game. Otherwise the soundtrack is fine by me, nothing special, but guess that's just personal taste. I think that the classic music was an interesting addition tho.
Well... Ok, I won't go over all your points, I agree with a lot of them, but the game was still pretty fun to me. Guess I'm a sucker for open world. Honestly I remember I was more pissed off when Burnout: Revenge introduced traffic checks, and I was like "What, you don't even need to dodge the cars anymore? This shit is for noobs...", but eventually I got used to it. Same with the flaws here. It is pretty much for casuals, but heck, it's still a good game when you wanna empty your head.
Can't say I played Criterion's NfS, that franchise felt like shit to me for ages now, so I didn't even bother to try...
I just wish a new Burnout game would come out, preferably on PC or PSVita...
Yeah, Lust had more character in 2003 because that's exactly what that version was, an expansion of the content that was out at the time. Oh, I love Ling. He's awesome.
Was the World's Most Despair Inducing Incident explained yet? I was left unsatisfied when that didn't happen in DR1.

Me too, not only his motive was really touching, it was somewhat relatable. I mean, if I was in that situation I would be desperate to see my family too.
Nagito is the absolute best. Also there is much more to his character than what meets the eye, unlike Junko, who's just batshit for the sake of it. When the LP gets to his latter free time events you will see what I mean. SDR2 beats DR1 to death in terms of character depth.
Sorry for not replying for so long. I have been a lazy asshole and the only things I do are going to school and listen to music when I'm at home.
As for SnK, I wouldn't go in expecting a solid ending. Maybe if it deviates from the original source it can have somewhat of a closing ending but I don't see it happening if it's complete adaptation.
Yeah well, I still haven't listened to anything from the Pumpkins besides their 90s stuff until Adore and some other songs. But, sure, new album still sounds awesome.
wat, so Urobutcher isn't teaming up with Dexter to kill all of his characters this time around? That sounds wrong.
It was obvious DR0 was going to have some twists in it that would change your views on everything that happened so far. Me is not surprised.
Hole shit, that opening looks awesome and respectable as fuck. But yeah, I'll wait like a always do. I have all the time in the world... not really.
Welp, Madoka also had a generic start. Maybe not as much as that one, but it did.
But wait, did Psycho-Pass do bad? I thought it was selling like crazy.
Yeah I like Teruteru too, it's kind o a shock that he'll be the first one to be executed because his character reminded me of Yamada ("different" design, perverted, etc.) and Yamada lasted 3 chapters
and what you hate Hiyoko? I like her, her mean comments are hilarious. I really disliked Tsumiki the nurse at first, but she grew on me.
But well, at least Komaeda is alive and know we better vote for him for every single available free time event. We need to see more of his creepy awesome side.
Yeah, the trials can't be adapted as they are or else they'd be repetitive as fuck. Then there are those moments like Kirigiri asking Naegi questions like "What is it that proves blah blah blah blah?" which would just be retarded as hell.
