Funniest thing I've seen all day. Not as funnier as the person who said that Gintama is underrated. |
| Evangelion is overrated! Not gonna lie, I'm an hardcore Evangelion fan and will say it is one of my favorite anime, wherever I go. It IS a masterpiece and I feel like it's a valuable contender for the top10 anime of all time, disregarding the MAL ratings, but people like me overexaggurate it and make it seem like the best show of all eternity because it has a deeper meaning. Eva fans keep saying that you need 200IQ to understand the topics of escapism and... stuff. That's not untrue, but that makes the fangirls feel like they're entitled to call themselves the superior audience when compared to fanbases of straightforward shoujou anime. That's my observation anyway. Serial Experiments: Lain is underrated! ...because no one understands anything, no one likes it but everyone loves Lain o_0 |

| Most overrated I can think of off the top of my head is Toradora. It basically just takes Shakugan no Shana and Zero no Tsukaima, and strips out the magic/supernatural/fantasy, and leaves you with a pretty mediocre romcom. It kind of blows my mind to see how highly people regard it. I thought it was decent, but it tends to top many people's lists for top romance, and I can't for the life of me figure out why (except maybe that it's just what everyone watches because everyone recommends it, so people don't end up watching stuff that's better...idk). Also Blue Exorcist. I was honestly pretty surprised to find out how popular it is after I watched it. Can't think of anything it does particularly well. As for most underrated, Requiem for the Phantom is super underappreciated. Great show |
| Overrated: Bleach Naruto Gintama One piece Tokyo Ghoul. Underrated: Blade of the Immortal Beast City Soul Buster. Generally I consider underrated good shows with score under 7. |

Even the creators of the series admitted to it. Is just fans that give it those deeper meaning that simply do not exist. Is just make belief. |
| Overrated: BNHA Underrated: Suisei no Gargantia |
| "Well, she's flatter than a pancake" -Mimi Alpacas |
| Oh shit, this thread is still alive, I'm kinda surprised. Might as well contribute, Endro this season is definitely underrated. Bait and switches done in this manner should be treasured more in anime. It was Ga-Rei:Zero all over again instead there's much less blood. |
 |
| Uma Musume is underrated, it is close to perfection if I had to be honest |
| Death Parade, I can't believe it's rated in the 200s and it's popularity is in the 50s. |
AzorAhai said: In my opinion, every aspect Mob Psycho 100 is made to perfection. The animation is absolutely amazing, the characters are all great and are more then just plot devices (with Reigen being my absolute favorite), the story is unpredictable and has a strong emotional impact, the humor is a great display of ONE's diversion of expectations and it works woderful. It really seems I am fanboying over this but I am 100% honest (HA!): This anime is the closest to perfection I have ever seen. I can't think of a single huge flaw that ruins it. It is even better the One Punch Man due to its stronger story.When it comes to my personal opinion, this season, Mob psycho is hell overrated. I can't find a reason why this show is so popular, I just have no clue why people see it as a masterpiece. There's nothing original in there, not even "esper" part... Well now with that being over, I think that recently Dororo is overrated. It is still a good anime, but I don't feel the emotional impact the anime tries to give me and it ends up being unintentionally hilarious. |
| Overrated: Shield hero. Like, really? Do ppl actually think this is above other isekai waifu shit? Yet another blank slate main protagonist who builds his harem off saving them. He is an otaku who stay at his home all day. But has perfect hair for some reasons. Gets betrayed by everybody for no reasons at all. Villains, who are supposed to be like irl ppl not npc in games, seems to be evil for the sake of being evil. Their motives are unknown for first several episodes and our mc doesnt even question why and decides to take revenge. The whole situation speaks "incel anime" to me. I get it. You are oppressed by the society which hurts you for no reasons. The story is not trying go a tad bit subtle/nuanced about it. Female mc sleeps on the same bed with our mc for no good reasons at all when they are slave master relationship. And our mc just acts like he is too asexual to understand boundaries between opposite sexes. You can see the writing is not even unintentional just by looking at how the scene where they hug each other is framed. Anyone with the right mind can sense there is a romance story going on despite them having this brother sister, hero victim relationship. Also, there is loli, naked on debut, who competes with the other waifu for the mc. Is it not gross enough? |

| Definitely that time I got reincarnated as a slime. A massive lack of character development really lets it down. |
| Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen Looking at the MAL score and being Romance, one of my top genre. Being into a few episodes, I can see it being unique but at same time a bit dissapointed as I had high expectations which did not met. Just a love battle until one admits they like the other. |

Got you. no boobs/panty shot = 1/10. You watch anime for the plot and I can totally understand that stand. |

| most overrated: all the fate stay night routes (and every single other fate, except fate/zero - but these are slightly less overrated) reason: the most annoying and trashiest characters ever, very average boring plot, adapted from a hentai novel, random plot armor bullshit at fights 2. most overrated: bnha reasons: most generic shounen in human history, annoying whiny MC, loud shouts 'SO MUCH EMOTION OH GOD', literally nothing good about it 3.most overrated: shield hero reasons: again, very generic harem isekai, exactly the same as the previous 1000 harem isekai shows, edgy self insert MC, and again, nothing good about the show, its just the same trash as the rest of the harem isekais most underrated: grancrest senki reason: sure it was rushed, but other then that it was solid edit: nice to see that many people list bnha and fate, tho shield shit hero should be listed more too |
| For underrated series I would say Cross Game. While it has a pretty good rating here (8.48) I don't see people talk about it that much. Probably not the best example, but I went in expecting nothing and came out pleasantly surprised. Can't really get into Hero Academia. Decent watch, but it doesn't compare to FMA:B or HxH. |
| Overrated: Highschool DxD. It's not a bad series at all. It is decent and entertaining, but I would not say that it is one of the best anime ever. Some of the characters seem a bit bland or stereotypical and the writing feels a little rushed sometimes. Underrated: Gravitation. It is by no means the best anime ever, but it did deal with some very serious issues that are not often addressed in anime at all, and I think it deserves some credit for that. |
Yeaah sure, a show with 6 entries in mal's top 15 shows is going to be underrated.... |

A blank slate MC would be someone like the Sieg from the Fate/Apocrypha. No personality, character depth and development as deep as a kiddie pool. Anyways; a truly overrated show has got to be Konosuba. I understand that it's meant to be a parody of the isekai genre and all, but I just can't handle how annoyingly stupid all of them are. And their personality tropes are cranked up past the point of being tolerable. |

| Uma Musume is underrated in the West. Close to a masterpiece in all areas |

Even though I've rewatched it a couple of times already, but just cant seem to get past episode 4 without getting bored to death. Underrated : Densetsu no Yuusha no Densetsu |

| I've finished Trigun and it is a shame how barely anyone talks about this series anymore. I found it a true 90's gem and I think it should get more attention. Funny how people complain about Eva being garbage (without any argument ofc) or not having likable characters. They seem to miss the point of the show. |
Psytrance said: Your Name. It was a good movie, but it wasn't the cancer-curing miracle it's absurd success and community adoration suggests it might be. The final 3rd is an eye-rolly disaster movie, the romance is last-minute pushed with nothing but pretty visuals and the epilogue is so desperate to become emotional that it forgets the rest of the movie. absolutely agree as i'm still trying to understand what's so special about it or the reason it got high ratings the way it did, when a movie like koe no katachi outsold in every way possible, kimi no nawa was a waste of time for me i genuinely can't understand its popularity at all |
