Overall, do you rate anime generously or harshly? Why?

Neither. I score in a way that looks like a Bell Curve (aka normal distribution)
For every anime that gets a high score, there's gonna be one that ends up with a low score and viceversa.
Basically a fair system that is neither too harsh or too lenient.

It sounds like it would be too much or a bother, but once I figure out what average is for me and rescored some shows once, it got really easy to do.

I am VERY generous, that is because i easy enjoy stuff. Love to watch any type of shit out there and i don't see myself stopping any time soon.

I think I have become more harsher over time. Though I've probably watched more shows I liked than disliked, hence my 7.18 average rating. So my ratings are not because I was being generous but because I genuinely enjoyed the show. However, I won't rate an anime 4 or below unless I feel it deserves it. So yeah I believe I am a little generous.

I think my rating system appears harsher than it actually is. To me, ratings are sort of arbitrary and more so a reflection of how much an anime means to me on a personal basis. 1/10 represents anime that I actively dislike, 5/10 represents anime I somewhat like but am not HUGE on, and my 10/10s are the most impactful experiences I have had with fiction. My scale is universal as well, so all fiction is compared with one another.

I don't do ratings anymore. I would always have a stupid inner monologue about what score I should give while watching... It's pointless and distracting, so I quit worrying about it.

Generously. I've given more 7s and 8s than other scores combined. Most anime are just good.

Definitely harshly. I feel like I'm middling out, though.
