What's going on? Why season 2 rating dropping like season 1? The same thing happened with season 1. First got hype, got a decent rating and in the end same rating dropped. I don't think it's that bad it's a decent Harman, Isikai. What's your thoughts?

I liked 1st season but I think my expectation for 2nd season was high. I feel a little disappointed.

Thats very irrational reasoning 🤣 I dont think anyone is comparing this to AoT or such. Its very mid show and people dont need to enjoy it.

Last 5 episodes of One Piece are meh anyway. For me both have similarities, not much things happened so far. I predict this will have 6.85 or lower on last episode.

You are giving a personal opinion but acting like it is the truth, now that is irrational
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

It's still not very good. The CGI does look better though.

What do people want?

This anime has good world building, story telling, character development, actions sequences, humor, plus good music and animation. I loved the first season and I am enjoying the second season.

The complaint people had about the art / graphics in the first season was just silly. If anything, it shows how completely spoiled many people are today, that they would complain that the graphics were not up to their own personal standard. I had no problems, whatever it was they didn’t like, it didn’t take away from me watching and enjoying this anime.

And I seriously distrust the ratings, reviews, and many of the forum threads on MyAnimeList.com. They are just filled with too much spam, people complaining about anime that are not like their own favorite anime that they personally like, maybe it’s even completing companies dissing each other, since it is not honestly reflective of the anime I have watched so far.

There are a lot of anime that I think are really good, but are completely dissed and have bad ratings and reviews, which is not right.

And when I do watch the more “popular anime” I find myself not liking most of them, but should I be surprised?

There are plenty of freaking casuals who just watched a few anime like aot death note and shit and then compare them to every new anime they watch

I have no idea. Me personally the show is ass but it's in that self aware realm where it's so bad it ends up being good. I mean you got a show that shoves in every Isekai/harem trope with a self insert fanfiction Danneo Elric mish mash, it's gotta be self aware. It's a 4/10 but I got balls to call it a masterpiece.

The first season had a major tone/theme shift half way through; it started out like a poor man’s Shield Hero with an even edgier protagonist and piss poor CGI and pacing, but then became a generic “comedy” harem as soon as they left the dungeon, which may have contributed to the score drop.

I wonder if for season 2, the “wow” factor of the improved CGI (relatively speaking) has worn off leaving behind the show’s many flaws more exposed.

Personally, I haven't rated the series, but for me is a 7 or 7.5. The first season was a mess with the animation but still, I enjoy the gaps and the story overall. I gave the series a 5 or 6 don't remember.

Now it has improved the animation. The story and enjoyment are the same for me, I don't see something wrong with the rating in MAL and besides is just a number given by the community, it doesn't affect how enjoyable it is someting.

Season 2 isn't as good as season 1. Hajime's badass character and development through the series isn't shown that much in 2nd season so.. People lost interest. 6/10 for me tho

Just off the top of my head, S1 focused on developing the main harem + Hajime.
S2 is just moving the plot forward so that Hajime can go home. The harem is there to exist.

This is MAL, ratings mean absolutely nothing here in the long run, it's a popularity contest.

Generally speaking, mal is terrible with ratings and has been for over a decade, it's best to not look at a show's ratings at face value and instead look at the show for it's merits and disadvantages from your own examples.
tl;dr the mal ratings are more like a popularity contest, and people will rate a show based on personal opinion instead of merits here.

Yes, bro i kind agree with but, it's not the fault of MAL, it's the fault of members who takes sometimes too personal.

Don't know why the rating is low in the anime but we'll probably get there. I dropped the Light novel since it's just plain stupid catfights. Everyone trying to get Hajimes attention despite knowing he belong to Yue. But also the teacher being dumb as f*ck.
As for the anime, might be because they skipped a lot? Fast forwarding an unnecessary fan service or whatever, I don't know and don't really care. Will watch this season but that probably it.

No it's not the fault of the site itself, it's just how this site works with ratings and it's not just this site, though mal and a couple of other sites seem to be the worst about it.

Basically mal is extremely popular and famous among the anime community as such it get's many different types of fans of the medium as well as ones who have a disdain for specific types of media, not to mention that there are many people who will downrate a series just because they dislike a genre, like sites like metacritic, it's generally better to look at actual reviews than to automatically look at a series rating.

Probably the best example currently on mal is uzaki chan wa asobitai, a series that is just above 7 currently on mal, mainly due to people downvoting it due to the main female being short and having a large chest.
My point with this statement is that any series with the harem genre, overpowered protagonist or a isekai have a uphill battle in mal rankings, and it's not just these 3 but these 3 along with anything ecchi especially tend to draw bad ratings on mal.
As such any title with them is likely going to be brigaded, so the rating for this series is probably best ignored here.

Tl;dr the rating system on mal is pointless unless it's really really low, at that point differing opinions merge.

As someone who has read the LNs i can say this with all the right in the world: Arufureta is trash. Now, if you add the poor animation and CGI, of course the score will be low.

This is a very accurate description of how to perceive the ratings on this site. The only thing I would disagree on is to look at the reviews, most of those are just as bad. Plenty of 10/10s on weak shows and 1/10s on excellent shows where the reviewers don't know what they are talking about. Most can't seem to find a middle ground and properly explain the strengths and weaknesses of a show.

I was more referring to general reviews instead of MAL reviews (tbh i barely even remember they exist here since i ignore them) but yeah pretty much agree with what you said.
