| Eromanga-Sensei is generally slated as a bad anime in the western anime community. Now, obviously it has its defenders, but the general consensus is that this is not a very good anime, though its popularity keeps it above an average rating of 7.0 On Japan's anikore site however, there's no evident disdain for this anime. It sits comfortably at no.2!! Granted, these rankings don't align exactly with critical rating, but it's clearly a big part of it. It's rated 3.8/5. For some context, here's some Spring 2017 TV anime ratings, based purely on critical rating: Tsuki ga Kirei: 4.1 Attack on Titan Season 2: 3.9 Uchouten Kazoku 2: 3.9 Natsume Yuujinchou Roku: 3.9 Eromanga-sensei: 3.8 Saekano flat: 3.8 SukaSuka: 3.7 Re:CREATORS: 3.7 My Hero Academia 2nd Season: 3.6 Berserk 2017: 3.6 Hinako Note: 3.5 Shingeki no Bahamut Virgin Soul: 3.5 Rokudenashi: 3.4 Zero Kara Hajimeru Mahou no Sho: 3.4 DanMachi Sword Oratoria: 3.4 Sakura Quest: 3.3 Sakurada Reset: 3.3 Clockwork Planet: 3.2 Sin: Nanatsu no Taizai: 2.9 A look at the Spring 2017 listings: https://www.anikore.jp/chronicle/2017/spring/ All of the ratings are very close (It really does make better sense to adopt an /10 rating system rather than /5) but there are some clear differences! I think some of these ratings are REALLY weird (the notion that Berserk 2017 is just as good as Hero Academia 2nd Season blows my mind), anyone else surprised? |
Punpun3 said: because it's a good anime. y'all still bitter because he chose kirino I didn't post this to say that I hate Eromanga-sensei, just to say that Japan has a higher opinion of it that the Western audience. I don't care at all about how oreimo ended (it was a bad ending but I don't care), and I've seen 4 episodes of Eromanga-sensei so far and not been impressed. |
| The score's relatively low actually. The entire season is shit; Eromanga sensei just happens to be one of the less shitty lmao. |

A lot of the anime listed below Eromanga-sensei in Japan have a much higher score than it in the west. And these scores do all seem bad but if you look through the seasons in Anikore there aren't many anime that get 4.0 or higher in a season. 3.8 is quite a high score on Anikore. YayaChibi said: That english though lol lmao There was worse in the Spring 2017 season lmao lol A lot fucking worse lol lmao I don't understand what you're saying but I agree there were plenty of anime worse than Eromanga-sensei in Spring 2017. |

Better to look at the points. 73 and ranked 400ish is pretty bad. What you said about Japs liking it is pretty true though; their taste is just as shitty; though they're a bit less blind and deaf than non-japs. |

| Westerns have shit taste in chinese cartoon, what did you expect? 2 decades laters and they still think Cowboy Bebop is the best animu evaaaaa Eromanga Sensei is a masterpiece in its class #ochinchindaisuki |
| I also think it is a good anime However, I do disagree with japanese audience in many of the other anime. Uchouten Kazoku is garbage for example. No idea what people like about it But I'm glad that Berserk 2017 is not too low, because it is among the top 3 in last season in my opinion. People hate animation, but it does not matter for me because I enjoyed it more than most of the other anime. I would even say that deserve even higher on this list MortalMelancholy said: The score's relatively low actually.

| MAL gave it a 7.02 or 3.51/5 which isn't a whole lot lower, and yet we know the west dislikes it because of words of mouth. I don't doubt there's plenty of Japanese anime fans who also think it's garbage. Idk why popularity would boost the score in the west but in Japan it's somehow a sign of thinking it's a quality show. |

I don't doubt there's plenty of Japanese anime fans who also think it's garbage. Idk why popularity would boost the score in the west but in Japan it's somehow a sign of thinking it's a quality show. You can't compare the 7.02 on MAL to make 3.51 on AniKore the exact equivalent. There are other factors to consider. Well, it's probably close but the MAL tends to have a larger range mentality (people vote differently when it's /10 than when it's /5) and MAL is a more popular website than Anikore. Anikore is a website almost completely unaffected by surges in popularity and extreme biases. It's a website for otaku, people who are really into anime. Whereas you'll find many casual anime viewers on MAL, Anikore is a small community with almost only people who are really into anime. Eromanga-sensei has no boosts for the good or bad: Though I would like to correct myself, saying that a high popularity took Eromanga-sensei above 7.00 on MAL is misleading, as it can't be known if this were the case. Both love and hate for an anime increase with popularity. It's just that people who watch less anime tend to be more generous with ratings, so anime with very high members often have a slightly inflated score because they've reached the causal viewer who might have 8.0 as their mean MAL score. |

If it's hardcore otaku then it's probably the fact this show hits all the right otaku fetishes and the girls are reasonably cute that it's rated highly. They're also probably not ashamed that this show appeals to them if they've accepted their otaku status. I'm more curious as to why Berserk isn't rated lower since it looks like someone ate Miura's artwork and vomited it back out into an anime. |

Valaskjalf said: Westerns have shit taste in chinese cartoon, what did you expect? 2 decades laters and they still think Cowboy Bebop is the best animu evaaaaa Eromanga Sensei is a masterpiece in its class #ochinchindaisuki Well, it's not the best anime ever but it is the best directed episodic series in the last 20 years. Modern anime directors don't have enough skill, experience and creativity to make something better than cowboy bebop and samurai champloo. |

| False advertising title ! I came to learn about Japan's important opinion about a little animated show watched by a few people there and got only a score coming from an internet gathering of otaku? Thanks... More seriously, this website is probably even less representative of "Japan" than MAL of "the west". |
| Japan: it's an ecchi anime, and i love those! this series is fun as an ecchi fan, and the jokes were funny! West : wtf too much fanservice. i was expecting something like Berserk. what is this crap? 1 / 10 |
| You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/. The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish. Show your support to your favorite artist if you can! ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name.

| because it is a good anime, that's obvious |
 |
| if u want to prove ur opinion that japanese audiences love it, u should probably list the bd sales and original novel sales rather than use this lame scores that anyone can make it higher or lower deliberately with no cost. edit: they do sell really well, so im not against u. |
| CAUSE JAPAN IS GREAT !!! EROMANGA-SENSEI GOOD ANIME !!!! |
