| You should probably look up the definition of "Masterpiece". |
| I would think it has to be a 10/10 to be called a master piece, and this show is a high 8/10, so no. |
| "Equivalent exchange. I'll give half of my life to you, if you give half of your life to me." |
| I think it's a pretty great series, a 9 for me. |

Nah dawg, once a piece in any medium passes a threshold of personal enjoyment, it is objectively the magnum opus of that medium. Duh. Well, apparently, a piece of medium is called a masterpiece, when it's very highly critically praised. And I haven't seen much critics praise it a lot. Like, I've seen the show, I enjoyed it, it was great, but not a masterpiece. And, personally, I call a show a masterpiece, only when it's flawless (Gintama is a masterpiece in my eyes). |

Hmm, I suppose I should have thrown the /s in there. No, it probably isn't a "masterpiece". In an actual denotative sense, that word itself is pretty vague and leaves quite a bit to personal interpretation; it's certainly arguable, I suppose, whether any piece of art, fiction, etc., is indeed a "masterpiece". Sure, you can go with critic consensus. I'm not sure how much more justificatory that is than any other human beings' opinions, but it's an easy route at least. My point was merely that these forums are plagued by shitty takes with poor justification and support, often boiling down to "well, I enjoyed it IMMENSELY, therefore, masterpiece". And such posts are fun to lightly ridicule. |

And such posts are fun to lightly ridicule. Oh, I apologize then. I actually took you seriously back then. So, what I said about the critical praise, is how "google" defines a "Masterpiece", and I only used since it was the closest to most of the audience. And, yes, I agree. If I was to save a dollar every time someone says "X show is a masterpiece" on mal, I would be rich as fuck. |
| Did not like Koro sensei's backstory, it ruined the whole thing for me. Along with some other twists. |
| It's Morbin' Time! |
| For me the show overall is just pretty good, with some stupid subplots and poorly written villains getting in the way, but I'd be lying if I said the last half of S2 and it's ending wasn't great. To this day, Ass Class's ending remains one of my favorites to any anime. It just hits all the perfect notes. |
| Are ya winning, diners? |
| if you don't think it's a 10/10 it's not a masterpiece in your opinion, have you looked at the names of the ratings on here? |
