I think it's a great show and it doesn't deserve such a low rating. Sure, the animation and pacing is not as good as Hozuki's Coolheadedness but it's really fun, it has smart interactions and unexpected mysteries. I find it quite unique especially since so many anime center high schoolers or are set in fantasy settings.

In my opinion it didn’t really get good until around episode 5. So if people are just rating the first three episodes, and then dropping the show after the third, it would make sense. It does suck that those people haven’t seen the good parts. :(

I was thinking the same, went to check dropped rate compared to other airing shows, it is high comparatively, even with similarly scoring shows. I haven’t watched it yet, but keeping it on my list.

This anime isn't exactly "easy to watch" or "easy to like" for many people. It's not a rom-com, nor a shounen battle or action series, and it's packed with elements of Japanese culture and beliefs, which makes it very easy for viewers to drop it from episode 1 or even just after reading the synopsis. Personally, the more I watched, the more fascinated I became, but for many others, the more they watch, the easier it is to get bored. It also doesn't have cool, handsome male characters or charming, beautiful girls to keep viewers engaged, so I'm not surprised its rating is quite low. Additionally, since many MAL members are from the West, it's even more reason why anime like this aren't well-received. On the positive side, in Japan, the anime has helped boost the manga's sales, which makes me even more hopeful for a sequel.

I don’t know, this seems kinda like an average anime in my opinion. It’s also a type of anime I could do without fully completing really 😭.

Because plebs dropped it early due to being not action, rom-com or cgdct and there is no youtubers to shill it.

I sometimes regret that there is no script or choice in the options to turn off these ratings that are given at random, either because the first three episodes are not very good, or because there is too much talking in the anime, in which all the charm is in these very conversations, or I saw a more stupid reason - too much fan service, the drawing is not right, the subtitles are wrong, etc., so asking this question is useless, the problem here is in the rating system, so this case is not isolated and there are hundreds of such examples.

Checking the author was enough for me to know I will absolutely enjoy it. And I was right.

Besides the fact that it came out in a season with a lot of popular titles, the anime has a lot of references to Japanese folklore and culture so it could throw some people off.

Personally, it is one of my favorite anime from this season. The atmosphere is unique, and the characters are fun. I hope we will get a second season.

Shounen action fans when anime doesn't have a high budget fight every 5 minutes to stimulate their fried dopamine receptors. If it makes you feel any better, people don't take MAL reviews seriously, because they let people rate anime they haven't even watched, for lousy reasons. The anime is #2 for anime of the season Summer 2025 in Japan, if you look at anikore. jp

This drama is about eastern culture, most of the users on mal are probably western. So maybe it's not culturally appropriate.
The first episodes people said it didn't seem interesting, but I was excited (I'm eastern).
