Subtitle: An experiment born out of idle curiosity and boredom

So, I was thinking about how most anime on this side end up with a score above 7, and I wondered: what are the most popular anime that didn't break that threshold? I took a look, and here are the top 10 most popular anime with a score under 7:

1) Dragon Ball GT (283,438 members, Score 6.68)
2) Absolute Duo (238,244 members, Score 6.76)
3) Yosuga no Sora (220,477 members, Score 6.62)
4) Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai (217,897 members, Score 6.89)
5) Eromanga-sensei (216,242 members, Score 6.94)
6) Chaos;Head (207,321 members, Score 6.54)
7) Dagashi Kashi (197,467 members, Score 6.70)
8) Infinite Stratos 2 (185,580 members, Score 6.79)
9) Seikon no Qwaser (179,740 members, Score 6.74)
10) Kampfer (173,044 members, Score 6.66)

Any thoughts? Any fans of these shows who don't think they deserve such low ratings? Discuss!

EDIT: I accidentally missed School Days somehow. So the ACTUAL #1 is School Days (341,509 members, Score 6.06), and the rest are 2-11.

Yosuga no Sora, Infinite Stratos did nothing wrong, I protest. I could validate for Qwaser and Kampfer as well.

I've only watch 5 and 7, and I think both of them are pretty good, especially Dagashi Kashi. I think a lot of them are getting lowly rated because of the harem/fan-service hate, I mean people do not appreciate the whole genre, so they would be rated lower unless they are especially good. Anime having fanservices is like some kind of stigma in MAL at this point.

Apart from Absolute Duo I have a pretty good idea why they're the most popular. Some more than others.

IS2 were plain boring.
I don't see any conclusion for the 2nd season other than ichika being ichika with his 2nd IS form.

Also most of the tittle mentioned are popular but generic/bland as possible compared other anime.

Also I always hated that chaos:x anime.
It was so terrible that i want to delete it from my list of completed anime.

I've watched School Days, Yosuga no Sora, Dakara Boku wa, Eromanga-sesei, Infinite Stratos, and Seikon no Qwaser. I feel as if most of these are just turn-your-brain-off harems that you could enjoy if you just wanna watch trash, especially Yosuga no Sora ;-)... except School Days. That show is just plain fucking infuriating XD

I'm actually Absolute Duo has that many people watching... how did that happen? I remember watching it and pretending it never existed afterwards.

As for most of the anime up there that I've watched, I actually somewhat liked Yosuga no Sora, Eromanga-sensei and Dagashi Kashi. Admittedly I scored them lower than MAL ratings, but that's just because MAL has a ridiculously high average and a laughably small score spread.
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.

that seems quite right
you know what's going to happen so no need to pay attention much either. I'd imagine most watching it on screen 2.

Nah Yosuga no Sora was pretty good with a nice format and good characters. That you don't want to see it or you want to follow the hate train is not a reason for it being a turn-your-brain-off harem.
EDIT: the reason you think it is is probably, because you turned your brain off. You can't understand it without using your brain. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I was legitimately surprised that Dagashi Kashi is that low, it's a pretty enjoyable show.
I probably regret this post by now.

I reallyy don't...
People dislike them for being generic right? IMO there are tons of isekai animes just as generic, yet they are getting praise for changing a few formulas?

Although Ero-Sensei may have also been a big disappointment when people where expecting a sort of successor to Oreimo.

Still don't really get the hate it for Dagashi Kashi, it was relaxing to watch and just a chill experience. May have been some overhyping tho as well, idk....
Also I dislike what happened to Hotaru's eyes with the new studio e.e

Dragon Ball GT was a shitty sequel. So it's not surprising that it is rank lower.

People watch shitty anime, who knew?

But do they favorite shitty anime when they only have 10 spaces?

nope.

The Anime in the 7's in top most favorited:

Sword Art Online: 7.68, 8th most favorited.

Bleach, 7.91, 13th place

Mirai Nikki 7.93, 31th place

Guilty Crown 7.76, 59th place

Akame ga Kill 7.81, 66th place

K-on 7.86, 67th place

Aoi no Exorcist 7.86, 69th place

High school DXD 7.62, 72nd place

Inuyasha 7.90, 75th place

Another 7.80, 84th place

Serial Experiments Lain 7.99, 92nd place

Lucky Star 7.84 96th place


Top 100 favorited, only 12 anime in the 7 zone and all are HIGH 7, not low.

First low 7 that appears is Vampire Knight. 110, Free, and then Sword Art Online 2.

School Days is the first one under 7 and it is at #315 and is a low 6 at that. And there isn't another 6 for more than 100 entries #460 Yosuga no Sora. So I guess of all of them, that might be the one worth watching.
