the highest rated anime which i have the biggest score difference is
Ling Qi 2
MAL: 7.49, my rating: 2 (difference = 5.49)

but almost no one must have heard of it
so the next is Spice & Wolf 2
MAL: 8.31, my rating: 4 (difference = 4.31)

Ling Qi 2 a 2? :(

Anyway, for me it's pretty undebatable that it's Lovely★Complex.

Lovely★Complex
MAL: 8.03, my rating: 3 (difference = 5.03)

Kinda funny that we literally have near completely opposite scores for Ling Qi 2 and Lovely★Complex.

@ame I know it sounds petty, but the two MCs are just so loud and annoying. Maybe I'll give the anime a second chance eventually, since it's probably the most jarring low scoring anime on my list (Next to Angel Beats and Fruits Basket, though those I'm pretty firm on my opinions of). I do wonder if I was too sudden with my choice to drop it, honestly.

Ling Qi 2 was pretty good for me, though the fact that (I watched the original Mandarin dub, which was edited down slightly in the Japanese redub) at the end of the last episode (This was one of the things edited out of the Japanese redub), they show teaser footage for Ling Qi 3... which was very shortly after canceled, and never came out.

HEY ATLEAST WE HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON, OUR HATE FOR ANGEL BEATS !!! see people really can come together lol

i think that must be a good reason given i watched Ling Qi from a shady site in mandarin but i think the subs were fan made because it was soooo choppy i could tell!! well...
about the MC being loud, im with you - i can understand...i loved it so much because of only 1 reason = I WANTED TO SEE A WOMAN CHASE A MAN LIKE A LOVESICK FOOL and it gave me that :P

Ping Pong the Animation - MAL Rating: 8.62 / My Rating: 1 (Diff = 7.62)

Just didn't like any part of it, honestly. The imagery and symbolism is gaudy in its repetitiveness, and the characters may as well be clones of each other in everything except appearance. Normally, I would've passed it off as merely another lifeless "coming of age" award-bait anime for that, but the horrifically ugly artstyle had to bring it down further.

For the lowest I think its got to be Re:zero Gave it a 2, MAL gave it a 8.23. I cannot even begin to describe how much I hate Subaru. He's genuinely worse that most villains. I have absolutely 0 idea what people saw in this anime. Are people THAT down bad for rem and emilia? I don't usually have such a strong reaction to an anime but this one made me hate life itself.

Honestly I usually give anime lower scores than the average, but I think maybe the highest score with the biggest difference is konosuba s1, gave it an 10, MAL gave it a 8.1. Following the new season I have seriously contemplated dropping it to a 9 or 8, cause that s3 was not all that and a bag of chips, but whatever the truth may be, I really enjoyed s1 of Konosuba, I thought it was really funny and I liked all the characters. As a comedy, I think its close to the top, which is why I gave it a 10, I was specifically rating it as a comedy though, so its not necessarily equivalent to other things I've rated 10 like HxH or death note, I can understand the lower MAL rating as at the end of the day its not like Konosuba is doing anything that special (and like I said, I am seriously thinking lowering the score myself.)

banana fish is rated 8.47 on mal. i rated it 6. simply boring and wasn't my type of anime at all. the story was boring, couldn't get attachd to the characters. didn't feel shit at the ending even though while watching i knew it was sad. at that time i had read that that anime is really good whichwas the only reason i stuck with it for 24 whole episodes. i still see it mentioned from time to time about how sad it was and how people cried but it did nothing for me.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

Pokemon Movie 7: Destiny Deoxys
MAL rating: 6.97
my rating: 1
score difference: 5.97

Destiny Deoxys was a really underwhelming movie for me that left a lot to be desired, but my main problems with it would have to be the story, plot, and the new characters; they were just very uninteresting and forgettable to me. The setting was new, and the legendary Pokemon were different, but the story and plot still felt hackneyed and lacking in creativity. Team Rocket was also stalking and doing predictable things like usual, which further adds to the triteness. Overall, I wouldn't say that I "hated" this movie though, and I do like Deoxys and Rayquaza as legendary Pokemon; it's just that the story, plot, and new characters could've been written so much better.

Also, my rating for it is actually a 1.5, but since there's no decimal option on MAL, I just gave it a 1.

probably my neighbor totoro, i think its rated higher than an 8/10 in mal. I rated it 1/10, simply bc i thought it was the most boring thing i have ever seen and not just in anime. And honestly, that movie has made me avoid any ghibli film.

For me, the first is “The Detective Is Already Dead". It has a score of 6.40 on MAL, but I have it at 1, so a difference of 5.40.

The second would be, “Don't Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro”. It has a score of 7.23 on MAL, and I have it at 2, so a difference of 5.23

Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju second season(6/10), because of the ending.

Steins gate(6/10), i hated the entire cast and im not big fan of time loop stories, unless it’s rezero

Gintama first season (5/10), could have been good if it isn’t for 200 episodes. Idk why people say the serious arc are good when they are most generic thing i’ve seen in shounen anime and also, why gintoki have such an obvious thick plot armour? like i get it’s a shounen anime but thats just way too obvious.

I also don’t like some ghibli movies as much as I thought like ponyo, the cat returns and howls moving castle.

There are probably more if i check my list, but I don’t want to.

Ouran Koukou Host Club. It's the only anime I dropped to this date.
A difference of 5.16 in score. Rated it 3, MAL rates it 8.16.
I know it's supposed to be a comedy, but I found myself "cringing" (for lack of a better word) at most dialogues. I don't usually dislike stuff, so got me a bit surprised.

Gundam unicorn is rated above 8, I gave it a 4
The show is fine on its own but works really badly with context to the rest of UC with the ending being a slap in the face (pun intended for any gundam fan asking) for the message of Tomino's UC, the only interesting characters are Marida and Full frontal and the show would've been better as a AU
There is also a show I gave 2, but I don't wanna talk about it

There's a handy feature on MAL that lets you check this, and also check the reverse. Turns out Evagelion Remake, Attack on Titan and a Ghibli film are the ones on my list. Most of those I gave a 5, but the standing score my majority is mid to upper 8s.

The first season hooks you and is entertaining. Then it falls and never gets up again. It costs a lot to finish it. And it's not such a long anime.
The characters are flat, they never change, the fights are boring, you don't feel empathy or affection for any of them. A tremendous "meh".

I found the show so bland. I don't get why it's so popular.

I think horror doesn't work much on me in anime.
Also, I think segmented watchings didn't help building a scary atmosphere. Maybe a movie would've worked better on me.

Berserk (1997)
MAL: 8.59, my rating: 3 (difference = 5.59)

(Dropped after episode 13) I don't really know what to say - there was nothing I hated and nothing I liked. It was just boring - not even funny trash or anything like that. The characters and dialogue were boring and therefore I wasn't particularly interested in the war or the titles either. After I dropped it, my friend briefly explained the rest of the anime and manga story to me - I think it had some interesting themes, but I honestly don't see how you can appreciate them when you have to endure the whole rest of the series.

HunterxHunter (2011)
MAL: 9.03, my rating: 5 (difference = 4.03)

(Completed) If I focus only on the good story elements, it could easily be a 7 ... but the rest (like 80-90% of the series) I just never liked. Who the *#! thinks 40+ episodes of Killua running into the same (metaphorical) wall over and over again until he suddenly removes a mind control needle from his head or remembers he had a brother he loved is good character development...! The fact that I don't enjoy lots of long battles didn't help much either.
To be honest, I kind of "hate" this series - not because of the anime itself, but because I don't understand 95% of the positive reviews. After wathcing/reading them I felt like they and I watched a completely different anime. At least I found a YT video analysing the anime that I could actually understand and mostly agree with, so I'm partially over it.

Movie = Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion (Overall Rating = 8.55/10... my rating 1/10): And it's all because of Shinji, to be honest. I mean, he was annoying in the TV show but he grew on me and had his moments but boy, the movie... he became SO UNLIKABLE. He was overbearing to point this angered me plus he doomed the world. It went WAY beyond abstract to annoyance. While the art and animation were great but I can't overlook everything else. Sorry, Eva fans... this was so frustrating to watch.

TV = Attack on Titan: Final Season Part 2 (Overall Rating = 8.76/10... my rating 6/10): This the one with the Rumbling. This part of AoT... I remember that nothing special really happened only for Eren became the giant thingy and kept walking. AoT went the Death Note route at this point and started to lose interest with the whole thing.

Yugioh GX: I've rated it 3 while the score is 7.21. I absolutely hated every episode I've watched, the characters were horrible, the graphics and character designs were awful.

Yugioh: my rating is 5 while MAL rating is around 7.49. Nowhere near as bad as GX but still kinda boring and meh.

Pokemon: I gave 5 while MAL is 7.39. It's clearly for kids, over the age of 12-13 it is became childish. Visually very low quality.

Dragon Ball Z: my score is 6 while MAL is 8.18. The pacing is horrible, there many episodes when characters are just screaming at each other maybe throw a punch here and there. It has some epic scenes but has many problems as well. If it aired nowadays its pacing would be memed to death. Dragon Ball and Yu Yu Hakusho are way better.

Promised Neverland 2nd season: my score 3, MAL is 5.27. I really REALLY loved the first season and was really happy when they announced the second. Oh boy how gargantuan let down was it.

Boruto: 4 vs 6.01. It's a disgrace for Naruto, inferior in every way.

Dragon Ball GT: 3 vs 6.50. It's a disgrace for Dragon Ball.

Parappa the rapper: 3 vs 6.26. It's a trash. I wouldn't call it an anime, it's a bad quality cartoon for small children.

People don't dare giving bad shows low score while many great shows are downvoted by haters. This is what I hate about MAL ratings, difference between bad and good shows are too small. Only very few anime reach 9.00, and anime higher than 8.50 are also rare, many great anime are just above 8.00, while many awful shitshow get around 6.00-7.00 and MAL rating under 6.00 are rare, only disgustingly bad animes get them. Don't tell me the difference between a trash, cliche isekai (usually rated around 6.50) and a great isekai like Mushoku Tensei or ReZero is just 1.5 maybe 2! Masterpieces like Frieren's, Steins Gate's or Attack on Titan's MAL score is just 2 maybe 3 at most higher than a trash with plotholes, bad graphics, badly written characters, etc.

Movie:

Revue Starlight: The Movie
MAL rating: 8.52
My rating: 4
Score difference = 4.52

The movie failed to address the shortcomings of the main series, and ignored the complaints people pointed out. Instead, the movie is geared towards the show's die hard fans with a spectacle that feels like an excellent example of "flash over substance."

--------------------

Series:

Link Click
MAL rating: 8.73
My rating: 5
Score difference = 3.73

I liked the show far better when it was just two dudes helping out people in the past. It went downhill for me when the series turned into a serialized thriller to stop some generic bad guy with time travel powers. It didn't help that the main characters aren't as well fleshed out as the side characters that they encounter.

Madoka magica, which I gave a five . Mostly because I didn’t like the story or characters too much, and it felt too over the top that I couldn’t take it seriously, heck I’ll even say it’s not that dark. It did have some good stuff, like the soundtrack, art style, animation, and character designs, but everything else wasn’t my cup of tea
