I watch a ton of anime. I prefer to watch in marathon sittings rather than once per week. I will watch almost any genre of anime and will usually watch an anime all the way til the end if i pick it up regardless of how bad i think it is. My rating of anime is 6 or lower terrible, 7-8 ok, 9 great, 10 epic. I prefer subs over dubs in 95% of the anime i've seen. If i could watch the episodes raw, i would, but sadly i am not anywhere close to being able to comprehend most of what's being said without the subtitles. Although I like a good story, character development, soundtrack, etc, i'm also susceptible to moe, fan service, nice character designs, plotless stories (most slice of life), etc. Just because an anime might have one of these or lack something else, it doesn't mean i'll immediately write it off as unwatchable or deplorable like most others. I couldn't care less what others think of an anime. If i enjoy or hate the anime, i'll rate it accordingly to my tastes. I've also noticed that as i've watched various different kinds of anime, my opinions of previously seen anime have changed. So, the score shown is the score i gave it when i first watched it. If i were to pick my top few anime and base all the rest of the anime i've seen, the scores would probably be a lot lower. I also noticed recently that animation/character design isn't everything. If I can watch enough of the episodes and the anime does well enough on its own without good animation, i'll continue to watch it. The most recent example would be xxxHolic. At first the incredibly lanky unhuman figures kept me from enjoying the show, but after a couple of episodes, I started to enjoy the flow of the anime and eventually stop caring about the character design. I probably have a lot more to say but can't think of anything right now. Also i don't expect anyone else to read this so i don't even know why i typed it lol.
