| I sometimes update my scoring, because a comparative list is like software, it rots over time, watching more anime changes your standards and all that, and like only having 10 distinct values isn't enough to really express granularity anyway, so sometimes gotta move stuff 1 score up or down. |
| I score an anime after finishing it, and I sometimes adjust them, maybe like once every three months. |
 |
| rarely but my standards are increasing slowly so i might go back one day change some of my past 10's to 9's maybe. |

| Quite often, especially if I re-watching something. |
 |
| Not too often. The only times I really change a score is when I come across a show in my list that I think I scored a little too highly or lowly, so I change it by moving it down or up 1. |
| Rarely. Even if i do it'll be after rewatching them. Btw dude i think you should specify what exactly "update your score" means coz some people are gonna misunderstand it as "WHEN/HOW FREQUENT do you update your LIST". |
| Never My score is a reflection of my enjoyment of the show at the time maybe if I rewatched more anime I would change scores |
TRC_Randy said: Rarely. Even if i do it'll be after rewatching them. Btw dude i think you should specify what exactly "update your score" means coz some people are gonna misunderstand it as "WHEN/HOW FREQUENT do you update your LIST". Specifically changing score for shows I watched long ago. Usually without even rewatching. |
| I usually update scores on re watch or if I feel a show wasn't as good or better than i first thought. |
Sometimes it takes a real man to be best girl. Gilgamesh is also chad.   |
| Yeah i had big shifts in my rating system in the past and with new anime come more perspectives, so i changed them every few months. I have since settled on something robust that i like, so i havent changed my scores in any significant way for years. |
 |
| I might change the score after re-watching. Sometimes it goes up, as was the case with Rozen Maiden and sometimes it goes down... Ima, Soko ni Iru Boku seemed extra cheesy the second time around. Sometimes sequels can ruin a show. S2 of ReZero and s3 of Oregairu were terrible and forced me to rethink the scores for previous seasons. s4 of AOT wasn't such a huge disappointment that it effects the entire series, but it was a downgrade. |
 |
| I update my scores pretty frequently. While what I think of a show at the point I finish it is important, in my opinion lasting impressions and comparison to other shows is just as important. |
| I wish I could rewatch everything I feel biased or uncertain about in one second, so that my opinions could be updated fast. Regarding your question, I updated my score two or three days ago. I moved the numbers down, but no all anime. Now any anime that was mildly good will be a 6 instead of 7. Most of my scores now are either a 6 or 5. |
 |
| That's why I kinda stopped Scoring because it becomes a hassle to change my scores every so often as I tend to find better things overtime. |
KUGEKl said: That's why I kinda stopped Scoring because it becomes a hassle to change my scores every so often as I tend to find better things overtime. It's definitely a huge hassle, and that's why my list is a mess. |
| "How often do you update your score?" 1. When I watch something it can change it on every episode. For example recently when I started Make My Day, was ready to give it 7/10, but then it ruined the interesting premise with some weird to outright stupid twists and character developments. At the end I gave it 5/10. Not sure if it deserves even that. 2. Nowadays I change the score of completed shows only if I randomly stumble upon a show and disagree with my previous decision. In the past I regularly scanned my list and changed scores a lot, too lazy for that now. |

But I really should do it at this point... Like when I only had a couple shows for the 10 ranks, I could drop the score by 1, to signify ordering, but now that just means many older shows I liked are on 7 or maybe even 6. |
| I've done it once, and that was win I hit 100 shows completed with an average score of 7.14. I watched a good 80+ of those prior to creating a MAL account and figured I'd been a little too lenient with my scoring, so I tweaked some borderline cases to get my average down to 7.00. I probably won't adjust again until I hit 200 completed, so maybe sometime next decade? |
| I've recently downgraded most of my 10s to 9s, and some of my 9s to 8s. I feel like for something to be a 10/10 for me, it has to truly connect with me on a personal level. It's not that my 9s are worse than my 10s per se, they just don't have that same "vibe" I guess. |
 |
| Rarely, but I've done it at least twice. Y'know, checking out the highest scored anime on my list and deciding whether to leave their score alone, or change it. As for series I'm still watching, then I score them on a whim, to be fair, but not later than in the moment of finishing watching a show. |

| I don't update my rates. When I give a score to an anime after finishing it I leave it forever, no matter if I rewatch it and like it less, I am not changing the initial score. |
| Every now and then, so uh every 3 months? |

| As often as I don't bother giving a score in the first place... So zero.. scores mean nothing to me, nothing... I don't care about bad or good scores as long as a anime has sexy women.. |
 |
| Sometimes I update them, yes, if I feel that I like the work more or vice versa. |
 |
| I never intentionally go through my scores to update them, but sometimes I'll look at what I gave an anime and decide that it deserves a different score looking back on it. |
  |
| Generally I don't go through my list to update scores, but sometimes I go through my lists when I talk anime with my friends cause I'm reminded of some show that I can't remember the name of or because I wanna check for recommendations for them, and at those points I sometimes notice scorings I don't really agree with anymore and change it. sometimes it goes up and sometimes it goes down. |
| I've stopped updating my scores like 5 months ago, I just keep adding more stuff to my ptw and I watch shows without updating them on here. I stopped caring about using this site for its intended purpose. |
 |
| Re-scoring anime is part of the fun... |
 |
| Randomly when I see it and think the score isn't accurate anymore. |
| Whenever I finished/rewatched an episode or more and I have time to login to MAL. As long as I feel the anime score needs updating. |

| I don't score an anime until I've completely finished watching it. That's just because I try to look at an anime holistically; there have been so many times where I thought I had an anime totally figured out, but then a single episode completely changed how I feel, and put the previous episodes into a new perspective. Or made me invested in a way that I just wasn't, before. It's just personal preference, but I'm in no hurry to try and score an anime on the basis of the first episode (or even the first three), and I'd much rather wait until the dust has settled and I've had more time to consider the anime as a whole. And I try really, really hard to utilize the full scale that MAL offers, so that my scores are reflective of my own subjectivity and whatever objectivity I can figure out, while watching. It's nice when my personal feelings relatively coincide with the score that I comfortably feel an anime 'deserves', but a lot of the times they just really don't, and I think that's okay, too. So that said, I absolutely do go back and change scores frequently, and I think it's really healthy to do so! I always want my scores to reflect how I feel + and what I think about an anime in the current moment. If an anime has had lasting impact for me, I'd like to show that, and if an anime has fallen out of favor with me over time, I'd like to show that, too. I'm not at all married to a score, so I'll change things based on a few factors: - I've just watched an anime of a similar concept and realized it just did everything the other show did, but so much better. - I watched the OVA for the anime and it gave me a new perspective on the main series itself. - I've rewatched an anime and realized it doesn't quite deserve the score I originally gave it. I do try to be careful about changing scores after a rewatch, though, because I realize that the impact of your first time watching an anime can't really be replicated, and it's not always fair to an anime to change the score based on that alone. (For a lot of them, that 'first time watching impact' is key!) But in a lot of cases, it just has to do with understanding that the anime just doesn't hold the same place of importance to me, as it did when I first watched it ages ago. Generally I'll only move scores up or down by 1, unless something super glaring makes me feel that it should have a much higher or lower place in my list. |

| TV Series and OVAs: 2 times usually. Once after the first couple episodes and again when I've completed it. Although, often the first rating was correct and don't need to change it. Movies: Once after I finish the film. |

| My scores are typically locked once i finish a series. Very very rarely, i rewatch a show and think how it was better then i remember or that it really sucked and nostalgia was clouding my memory and will adjust the score accordingly. I used to be a harsh scorer so a lot of my early anime had really low scores, even if i enjoyed them. (This was before i worked out my current rating system) |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by |
| I've been meaning to update my scores for a while now, as you said, I've seen a lot more, and my standards have definitely changed. Every time I go through it again, particularly when I go through my 7s, I have started to realize there are a lot more that I enjoyed way more then others and have been meaning to maybe drop some down to 6s, and maybe drop some 6s down to 5s. I have massive 7 bloat. |
| I change some scores from time to time as I rewatch animes, but not too often, I'm generally satisfied with the score I gave in the first place. |
