I'm quite new on MAL and don't know how the rankings were a few years ago. Some days ago I was reading an article were I found out that Kimi no na Wa once had a rating of 9.39. Is that the highest rating ever achieved or something went even higher?

If you count rating manipulation attempts and trolls, there probably have been entries that were higher, at least temporarily.
I probably regret this post by now.

I'm not Rain Man, I don't remember every score every anime ever had. I would hope nobody does. If you're that obsessed with specific numbers, try search your way through waybackmachine or something.


Also, not to be rude, but are you sure you know what you said and what you asked for? Try read it again and maybe you'll realize that you did NOT ask for specific numbers. You asked a 'yes' or 'no' question:

Is that the highest rating ever achieved or something went even higher?


So don't treat me like I can't read, when you can't even remember your own words...

Nami once got a roughly 9.99 at it's first release. After a conspiracy (to this day still unknown) it has gotten the score you now see.

Every time a Gintama season/sequel gets released, it hold the top spot before people start rating it more objectively, sorta like Your Name. I expect the new movie to hit 9.3 at one point

If you are interested in how top rated animes changed throughout the years on MAL, I recommend this video:


It was cool to see how trends on top have changed over the years, at least when we are talking about animes with the highest mean scores.

Calm down bro. Sorry if it offended you. Didn't mean to do that.

not even close to the highest (including trolls), movie probably but there were a ton of boosted ratings, i believe i saw a 9.7 on a different less popular site, here that was 9.24 so excluding trolls kimi no na wa is possibly the best rated but i think it dropped to 9 or 9.05
