why are people already giving it a 10/10 when episode 1 (the only one out at the time of writing) is a kind of boring filler episode, id understand giving it a 10 by the time all episodes are out but already rating it a 10 (and rating it at all at this point) makes no sense to me

Yeah just people being like this is the greatest thing ever is annoying it’s that special and all and considering now it’s gonna be the movie in episode format doesn’t justify it

you know how people react to demon slayer. Don’t look too much into it. Personally I think this episode was kinda pointless. Haven’t seen the movie to know how the arc will be but maybe it’s worth a 10. Let’s just wait

This kind of forum is on every new anime. There are people who rate 10 on most anime even before it airs. Let people rate what they want. They really enjoyed it and are hyped about it. Let them score how they want. You can also change your score throughout watching it, it’s ok to rate early.
The right mindset when watching an anime is hoping that it will break your top 10

You can't force people to not like something .
Are you losing money or something because of people rating it 10/10 ?
I rated it 10/10 because even though Demon Slayer is kind of generic but I still enjoy it and that's what counts.
I watch anime for fun and entertaining.
Not to find faults.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t this just the movie with some new scenes? Of course people are already rating it highly they’ve already seen it and they already liked it.

It happens with pretty much all popular shows. Same as haters scoring popular animes with 1/10s.

Every day complaining. It isn't like this series is going to do a complete 180 to the viewer in respects to the movie. Rating it a 10, hell, even before you've seen the episodes, is perfectly fine.

I gave it a 9 because the first episode was (imo) actually pretty good. I thought it was just nice seeing more of Rengoku. Plus, if this is going to have more stuff than the movie, then it’s probably gonna be really really good.

Lol.

Okay so I personally don't rate a show until it's finished (or if a cour is out for multiple cour long anime). But if I would I'd easily give it a 9 or 10 out of 10. The first episode proved that the quality of the animation and production value is on par with the previous season, so it's fair to assume that the whole thing will stay the same quality, and since it's a continuation, it's fair to give the same score as the last season.

Also, boring filler episode, really? I think it was a really good introduction for this arc and the flame hashira. But that might be just my opinion so whatever.

Also also, seeing how the score on the seasonal page (at least for me) is 7.42, I think it's fair to say that the haters reached the MAL page first.

also Sequel Effect is at work in here too meaning those that mostly remain after the previous seasons are mostly die hard fans of the franchise and that the haters are already low in numbers as more sequels comes out hence why the score of sequels are usually high

Maybe because it's pretty much just the movie with extra scenes so everyone knows what to expect and if they enjoyed the movie then obviously they'll enjoy this arc because it's the exact same thing

It’s prob cause they watched the movie and know how amazing this arc is and are just getting there eating out of the way(:

They're probably hardcore fans. I mean, this episode was good for the filler, but it also showed nothing outstanding. As always, great animation and a fairly average plot. That's what Kny is for me.I'm going to be blown away in a moment, because nothing bad can be said about this anime lol

I usually don’t like people giving shows scores after just one episode, but for this one I think it’s fine since this show is just going to be the movie with a few extra scenes. We already know how it’s going to be, so if you rated the movie 10/10 you’re probably going to think this show is a 10/10 too.

Well it's popular anime after all
Generally, a MAL rating does reflect the popularity of an anime.

You can expect Chainsaw man anime to have 9.00 overall rating when the first episode release
Hardcore fan will rate it 10/10 regardless of quality/story

Calling an episode with more Rengoku as filler.... ;(

Plus it's connected to the main story, it shows the events that happened before the movie. Wouldn't a real filler be like all of them randomly going to play some beach volleyball or something

I wouldn't be surprised that this arc has a high rating already; but then again, people have their own opinions about it and it's really nothing that unusual. Although, I do wonder how many people have seen the movie before watching this arc. It's just interesting to me how a good amount of people are convinced that Season 2 has started airing, when it's actually reserved for Winter 2022.

And? people who have seen the movie + this original episode have, literally, already seen the whole anime.
Like, people are already allowed to give the scores they want from episode 1, but this one case in particular makes even more sense.

I mean in later episodes, rates will change either ways and people can rate whatever they want based on their liking towards the first episode and so on plus out of the context but mal rating is generally quite pointless to think about it because even there are some shows that has roughly around 6.70-6.80 rating, either because the show is nothing special since people have different viewpoints or people just boycotting to reduce the rating (which doesn't mean that the show isn't necessarily bad) but in the end, it's you to decide whether the show itself is worth to watch :)

Jeez Imagine being serious about the scores on MAL...

Go outside and get some fresh air, you're wasting too much of your time and life on minor things like the "rating" of a anime. In MAL of all places as well...
