| My Overrated Anime is --> Sword Art Online Because for me the characters are vert stereotypical specially like kirito. And there's no actual character development at all, the part of it which is the ALO part is really disappointing with all this saving asuna. And what's with suguha ? It's like she just become the female main character and asuna is forgotten and the last part of the last episode which kirito and suguha dancing ! like really ?? It was so awkward for me because asuna is there ! It should be kirito and asuna dancing. And what's with the creator of sword art online or is it nerve gear ?? It's like when kirito ask him why he created it he just says " I DON'T KNOW", come on what kind of answer is that ?? I don't know if sao is just popular because of the mmorpg theme of it and the famous 16.5. MY MOST UNDERRATERATED ANIME IS : Steins gate, Madoka Magica,fate stay night I think it needs more love ! because the story of it is more complex than sao.. and every characters got a chance to shine. In FSN I think people don't watch it because fate zero just really freakin amazing and the animation of it looks fabulous while the FSN don't really have that kind of animation because it's more older. But i hope people would watch FSN because the characters like rin, shirou, and really stood out to me. Although in the novel sakura really played a big role. |

DYRE said: That's all... pretty questionable as evidence of Madoka being a good anime. The thing with other "deconstructions" is that they tend to actually have something to say about the things they're deconstructing. Evangelion is partly a criticism of escapism through anime, for instance, and Perfect Blue harshly criticizes fetishization/objectification of celebrities, as well as otaku culture and whatnot. But with Madoka Magica... there's really no meaning to it at all. It's functional as a story and it's pretty tightly written and it doesn't have any filler episodes and the characterization more or less makes sense and the action scenes are good and it's totally reasonable for people to like the show, but ultimately its differences from other magical girl shows don't really do anything except make it seem different. Which is fine and undoubtedly contributed to its popularity but I do think it's a little bit questionable to call it a deconstruction. Well I cannot really speak a lot about it, this is true, only basing it off from users that see Madoka in a different light. I myself did not really like Madoka Magica when I first watched it; the characters didn't feel fleshed out enough for me to really 'care' what would happen to them. Only until I started reading about posts from people that watched a lot of magical girl anime expressed how this really took magical girl anime in a different approach did I take note of what this anime's purpose truly was. Not the first for being dark, but one of the unique anime out there to show 'realistic' characterization toward their circumstances. However, I appreciated it a lot more after reading the manga called The Different Story which really offered some character interaction that I felt was lacking in the anime. |

| Let's ignore the high ratings and popularity in Japan and focus on the west for this one. Precure. The entire franchise. Not a single part of the show has an average rating over an 8. Now I'm a huge fan of Madoka Magica, but the one thing I don't like about it is that now people think there's something inherently wrong with doing a straightforward genre piece (Like Precure with magical girls). Is Precure a brutal subversion of the genre? Not at all. It's very family friendly. Is there anything wrong with that? Absolutely not. Does that mean it can't be good? Nope. Is it good? Yes it is. I'm halfway through Heartcatch (Ranked 7.97) and I'd say it's significantly better than most of the shows ranked over 9 including the number 1 anime. Apparently the final episodes have dragon punching so I'll look forward to that |

johnyjohny said: I'm not trying to be a smartass here but, aren't there countless of that kind of animes choices come with sacrifices. The point being though it's a huge factor within the magical girl anime genre to do this sort of thing with a dark twist at hand. However, I'm not the best to consult about this, just merely pointing out how some people appreciate this (nor am I saying it's the only reason to like Madoka Magica). It's similar to saying that Evangelion is a deconstruction of the mecha genre because of the immense importance placed on the character's psychological despair in reaction to the situations they are placed in. Though, I have discussed with ZetaZaku about this and he points out that Evangelion definitely isn't the first to deconstruct the mecha genre. |

One of the things that I found compelling about the series is that despite being a deconstruction, Madoka does not present a criticism of its genre and surroundings like Eva, but rather exemplifies some of the most important messages of the magical girl genre. |

| Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita is overated. I mean the anime is not bad at all. I think want to express it's message but it make it hard to catch... I thought it would be far better. I like the voice of the protagonist, the fairys, and some of the messages, but it's a totally mess show. I think it's a little overated just because it's original, but I found it a little boring and without sense in most of the cases. Underated: Aku No Hana OMG the story and feelings are intense, i feel it every time and feel the pressure of the situations, I think is good. The art is shit as hell, I know and I'm agree but... I don't say is a masterpiece but it's quite good, not for having a 6 in MAL to be honest! |

I don't think Gintama is overrated (Maybe on this site) but overall I think it's position is fairly justified. Wait a minute.... one episode.... what.... You watch one episode and drop it and are now qualified to call it overrated!? It gets better you just need to see it's true colors, very few anime start off amazing from episode 1. At least watch to episode 10 or get into some serious story arcs before you make a judgment, then you can hate on it all you want. Thank you, that will be all. Mod Edit: Removed insults. |

johnyjohny said: natssuu said: Don't judge a anime you dropped man.Fairy Tail and Angel Beats! Both have the same rating 8.59 which is ridiculously too high By that logic, would it mean that a person who dropped an anime on it's last episode should also not have the right to judge it? I didn't watch it to the last episode, but I know enough to say that Fairy Tail is overrated. |

natssuu said: Fairy Tail and Angel Beats! Both have the same rating 8.59 which is ridiculously too high Agreed with Angel Beats!, i don't like it much, and fortunately isn't a Kyo Ani produced anime, if it was, maybe can would have even best rating, this anime deserves an 8 but no more than 8.3. About Fairy Tail in a previous post gave my opinion about it. |

Chakaara said: To me, every anime in here is either over or under rated. Agreed, Chakaara! Screw Berserk and Ghost in the Shell; let's talk about real classics, like MAPS! (Because there's no way that we could like something that came after the beginning of the 90s, am I right?) |

KillJoyMafia said: An underrated anime in my opinion is perhaps one of my recently picked up ones: Yumekui Merry, pretty cliche plot and all, but I have a strange attraction towards the series. :X Don't forget to check out the manga it's based on too! The actual author is definitely less clumsy than the anime's staff when it comes to the plot and characters, and personally I don't think that the anime gives enough credit to Ushiki Yoshitaka's art style... |
