| For enjoyment mostly. I'd be off making my k/c-drama list longer if I was giving every anime 5's or less. It's a waste of time. |

Hakaminah said: Zehennagel said: yea I fell like nobody read it so I wanted to say it to you. writing this much isn't useless! I like to read long stuff too since most of the time it comes from someone who know his shit but this time I don't really agree with it. For example, my brother rates majority anime with 10. If he doesn't like something, he'll rate it low. So what's the reason then for such a amount of high rated anime? He's someone who is really easy to please and has very little to no standards. Last thing he probably cares about is what people think of his list. Yeah im a bit like your brother. Im pretty easy to please i i think thats the reason why my ratings are pretty high. |
| Honestly, when it comes to yaoi, I do watch just for the sake of watching it because I want to watch every yaoi that is on MyAnimeList, because it is my favorite genre *if done right*. Unfortunately, most of them suck, but I still feel compelled to watch them. But the rest are for enjoyment. |

| I watch anime for pure enjoyment! I dont watch anime for anything else. I dont want my anime trying to tell me sometype of lesson in life, just entertain me, thats it |
| There is nothing which says all animaes are good. so people have likes and dislikes . that is the main basis of the rating system.Mean scores should be upto 6-7 according to my opinion . |

| If you don't watch anime for the enjoyment, whats the point |
| I watch anime just so I can give them low scores and shit on them. |
 |
| for both, if i can't stand an anime, i used to drop it. sometimes i hope anime with bad story is getting better, so i continue watching or finish it slowly (IMHO it will also be more objective/ accurate to give rating based on full episode). i will give low score, if it is still bad until the end, |
Contable said: I look at some peoples profiles and their mean score is like 5 or 4 and then I look at their list and see a bunch of anime rated super low... but what i dont get is that they complete those anime even though they dont seem to enjoy it. Why??? Is it just that you rate anime weirdly? You want the rating to lower so you put it as if you watched it?(because for your rating to count i think you have to watch at least 1/5 of the anime) Or is it just for saying "yeah I watched it." And some people are gonna say "I dont like to drop anime" but I think torturing yourself and wasting time on what you dont like is pointless and stupid. I feel bad to elitists, they even force themselves to watch some anime they don't like example the mainstreams one, so they will score 5 and below. I don't know, for me anime is for entertainment since they're art. Honestly, there are some anime that I don't like but I don't say bad things to the particular anime; and anime isn't for everyone or the plot story isn't for everyone. |

| I have a score about 5, some time ago I even had 4. But I don't really rate anime only based on how much I enjoy them. Usually I will rate anime based on the quality and then maybe a little bit of personal opinion. There's a lot of bad anime, and there's nothing wrong with liking bad anime - they are made to be likable with their stereotype characters and mild storylines, but I don't like to include that in the score. However, there are some anime that I really didn't enjoy, but finished and that's because usually I was curious to see just how much worse it can get :) |
  |
| I watch for enjoyment and nothing else. People rating series 5 or below are just critics of their own mind. But in case for me, my lowest rating is 7. |

| I guess some like me may not enjoy an anime, but just think it's very bad and had many flaws, so they give it a low score. People have different rating systems, some rate off enjoyment only, some are more critical of the plot, and there may be combinations of those two as well as other factors that can get taken into account. |
 |
| I purely watch things because I enjoy them :) |
| I watch an anime because I want to see if it is any good. I tend to find that if its an anime I have spotted myself I will enjoy it alot however if its an anime that is either recommended or hyped at the time (tokyo ghoul, death note, One Punch Man etc) I actually do not enjoy them as much as the rest of the community does and rate them lower. |
 |
| Regardless of the reasons you have for watching anime, it's most likely because you enjoy either the medium itself or at least appreciate certain aspects... This question is ridiculous tbh. |
Reypablo1998 said: i dont get why people try to watch as many shows as possible just to raise there watched numbers on there profile . I prefer to watch for enjoyment i treat every show if it is a piece of art watching and appreciating every episode if i enjoy it . If i dont all drop it i dont wish to add shows to my coplete list. Because some of us enjoy anime as a medium so much that we want to make our list bigger and bigger. @Contable - Its not a bad thing to watch more anime than others. I actually think its a shame people with lesser completions feel the need to target hardcore fans on a daily basis since they watch more anime. @Pullman - Great stance like usual. |

| I'm an anime masochist and I will watch the good, the bad, and the ugly, but I also rate things objectively even if I did enjoy it. Like damn I love Love Live and subjectively it's a 10 in my heart but objectively it's a 6 at best. |

| I have a good amount of free time and enjoy basically everything |

I think you should rate according to your taste and not based on the weird standards that lead you to give Zankyou no Terror a higher score than Samurai Champloo or Hotaru no Haka... There is no such thing as an "objective" rating, and even if there was yours would be very far from it. got me there bitch good thing anime isn't serious and i do also rate based off enjoyment I was just giving an example |
