Vivy has a weighted score of 8.39, and A Place Further Than The Universe has a weighted score of 8.51, which is a pretty low barrier to entry for considering something underrated (i.e., unfairly given a lower rating than it warrants). Generally, if anything here has a weighted score above 8.00, that means it's widely loved by a sizeable majority of those who watched it. But, if we're considering "underrated" as synonymous with "underwatched and/or more poorly rated than it should be", then...

1: Strange Dawn
2: Betterman
3: Bakuon!!

@Archean-Return yeah I get what you’re saying, I meant it as anime’s that deserve more recognition and aren’t talked about nearly as much as the more popular ones out there. Nice list though I’ll definitely take a look at those 3!

Latest underrated one on my to-do list is Kerokero Chime (6.42 MAL score, 697 users). But for the top three, I'll set the arbitrary requirements for something to be "underrated" as "Has a MAL score lower than 6.60" and "has less than 5,000 users"...

  1. Rikujou Bouei-tai Mao-chan (6.31 MAL score, 1,862 users, personally rated 9/10): Dumb fun, cute, and inoffensive. It's more or less a palate cleanser anime.

  2. Mellow (5.39 MAL score, 270 users, personally rated 8/10): Yeah, this one easily fits within the arbitrary "Underrated Requirements". Trashy, but incredibly funny, and despite being a 44 minute ad for the manga, it's a damn good ad.

  3. Zanting! Rang Wo Cha Gonglue (6.42 MAL score, 2,339 users, personally rated 8/10): A modern donghua, just to round things out. I love this one, and think it pulls off the look it's going for perfectly. Also it's the only one I've mentioned here that's streamable on Crunchyroll right now.

Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.

Solty Rei
Hinamasturi
Buddy Daddies
Millionaire Detectives
Saikyi series
The Daughter of Twenty Faces

@Kirika_Madeleine I was actually looking for more anime to watch thank you so much!!! I’ll definitely look into these, the only thing is the only app I use to watch anime at the moment is crunchyroll so I hope they at least have a few of these up there.
