| If you are going to give AOT a 3 why bother watching the second season? On a general note, if you give a low score to something in the first season why continue with the second unless you have read the manga/LN/VN (idk). |
| To piss of the fans, of course. Why else? |

| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| as a completionist I have to say that to complete the franchise. |
 |
| For fun sake. There are people who didn't like it if they are enjoying it. They would prefer to have torturous experience and thus rate anime like boku no pico 10. |

| There always is a possibility that I will like the next season more, you know. For example, the 1st season of K-On is 5/10 for me and I was reluctant to giving the 2nd season a chance but it actually turned out way better and I gave it a strong 8/10. Also, Maria Holic - I scored the 1st season 4/10 but I enjoyed the 2nd one much more and I scored it higher. |
 |
| i gave hibike s2 3 because it went from music anime with drama undertone to drama anime with music undertone. trash. |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| To me 3 is still acceptable lol. |
| I watch AOT ss 2 purely for fanservice, titans thicc af |
 |
| The AOT threads begins... On Topic....to Piss on the fans I guess. I don't give a shit about ratings. |
| So that I can rate the following season lower. Is there anything wrong with that? |

| I watch the sequels or stuff related even of the anime I gave a 1/10 because I'm a completionist. |
 |
| I can't understand to begin with why you're allowed to rate after the first episode. Sounds like a bunch of nonsense to me. |

| Perhaps they like the animation or OSTs and watch it for that reason. Even if some people don't like AoT storywise, they may agree that it is nicely packaded. Generally speaking, sometimes it can happen that you like the sequel more for various reasons. |

| i dont know who youre referring to, but if i start something, i always want to finish it. i don't like stopping myself from seeing the complete story. I keep up with tv series i think got mediocre, i watch every ova, and side story in anime related to something ive watched before even if some of these side stories are weak and a bit boring. if someone didnt give attack on titan season 1 a very high rating, that doesnt mean they cant watch to see where it goes. maybe theyre opinion will change on the series as a whole if they stay with it, even if they think the first season wasnt really enjoyable for them. (this is from someone who loves attack on titan, hanji and mikasa are two of my fave characters in an anime, and i loved seeing their storyline so i give it a 9, which is probably very high but if i enjoy something a lot i give high ratings) |

| So that people like you make threads like this, resulting in people like me making replies like this. |
| Because they are hipster and don't want to be excluded from the AOT discussions. |
| One thing you need to know. Freedom. It has become a very common thing as I remember... Paul said: Ckan said: To piss of the fans, of course. Why else? They would just give it a 1 if that were the case. Mhhh... I dunno but, rating a series not 1/10 and shitting on it just seems more genuine. It looks more real. |
| Because it's not impossible to be entertained by, or to enjoy, something you don't think is good. Sometimes watching a bad show and ragging on it is fun. |
| Because people are allowed to watch something they won't enjoy if they want to? |
| Because they hate mainstream and high score anime and it makes their pee-pee harder than Pico's when they give a low score. |
| It's a question I'm still wondering about |
   |
| Frankly most people are only watching it despite disliking it because it is popular. It's also good for discussion. For me personally, I'm rather indifferent towards AOT but the first season's animation and soundtrack did enough to warrant me giving the second season a try. |
| If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |
| I think some people just like to complete series even if they dont like it. From my past experiences I've disliked the first season of some animes, however I still watch the next season in hopes of it changing my perspective, which some have! |
| Why dafuq is this thread still a thing |
|
| A multitude of reasons. Curiosity. Because they want to be able to join the immense amount of discussion about any show as popular as this. Because people are still stupid enough to not accept any criticism from people who haven't seen every second of something. Or out of a professional duty as a reviewer. Or, of course, to be obnoxious to the fans. Paul said: Ckan said: To piss of the fans, of course. Why else? They would just give it a 1 if that were the case. You don't get the psychological aspects of scoring. 1/10 people will just assume you're trolling or baiting and not take you seriously so the goal of pissing them off will be harder to reach. 3 or 4 claims legitimacy and not just being an irrationally hateful score. Much better effect usually. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
