If you were given the chance to DECREASE the score of an anime, which anime would it be?

I don't actively dislike these shows (I even geniuely enjoy most of them) but I'd go with:

- One Punch Man
- Cowboy Bebop
- Haikyuu (compared to a lot of sport animes, Haikyuu doesn't have a soul and the characters are so empty)
- Kimi No Na Wa

Since MAL refuses to merge the Gintamas, I'd knock a few of them down a bit just to make things fair.

Decrease by an unspecified amount,or by up to -1.00 total?

I'd bring Dragon Ball Z down to a 5. it has good moments but I think it's extremely overrated.

No Game No Life (one of the worst anime I've seen from my point of view)
My Hero Academia
Kimi no Na Wa (I think this one is good but come on... the best anime movie, seriously?)
One Punch Man
Assassination Classroom
Fairy Tail
Soul Eater
Hotaru no Haka

Most of them aren't bad but I can't see any reason they're ranked so high

Any high rated shoujo ai and shounen ai (7 or more), except Rin Daughters of Mnemosyne (IMO needs to be higher)and Mo Dao Zu Shi.
Your Name
That time I got reincarnated as a slime (same isakei trash I’ve seen plenty of times)
Neon Genesis Evangelion (Good but overrated)
Gurren Lagaan (Too much like Evangelion)
Any high rated mecha in that matter
Utena (Don’t get the praises, Women empowerment and sexuality has been done before)

Don’t take this seriously because one person can’t change the ratings of the show. I think these shows aren’t worth the praises that it gets.

Totally agree. I rated it 9 but it's my less favorite anime I've rated 9, and in the context of MAL rating, I'd give it 8,8
9,24 is absurd.

I've think it's low enough, at around 8,3. If you hit into the "Big 90's Classic", it's Bebop that doesn't deserve 8,81 imo.

I watched enough anime (all the top 100 but One Piece included so there is already a lot of hella overrated stuff there) that making a list would be too much, so I will go and say Little Witch Academia and the Love Live franchise instead because it immensely annoys me how these two manage to be rated higher than... well, most idol or magical girl anime I watched despite being worse than them, especially LWA which is directly just a terrible anime that somehow managed to make me despise a clumsy genki protagonist.

Seeing Aikatsu under the 7.50 while the Love Live Movie is over the 8.00, or LWA at 8.10 while not a single Precure breaks the 8/10 zone (and most aren't even close) is borderline offensive to me.

And I know more than enough that this is just because of popularity and how it inflates scores, with most casuals rating in a way more kind way than most people who eventually watch the ones I said and already have harsher rating systems, a friend gave an 8/10 to the last season of Doremi and that's like a crazy good score from his part, but the same feelings are a 10/10 to all the people who feel that way with LWA and the casuals who dislike it will still give like a 6 or a 7 which is way better than the 3-4 they would get with harsher systems, and all that crap only makes the difference in scores and popularity grow and grow, reeee.

I'd say this as well. Pretty much the only logical reason to lower the score at this point.

- Second season of Seven Deadly Sins. I still can't understand why it has a score of 8.31. It wasn't horrible, but it was pretty subpar.

- Future Diary
- Btooom!
- Both seasons of Hamatora
- Tokyo Ghoul: Root A
I know the rest of these are below eight already, but I think they should all be lower.

A Place Further than the Universe - Characters were quite annoying at times and the drama at the ending episodes felt thrown in

Great Teacher Onizuka - It's a good show but the same pattern pretty much repeats for 50 eps

Forest of Fireflies - Had a lot of buildup but a pretty rushed ending

I agree with Made In Abyss. It's around 8,9. Not a lot happened, I can't rate so high an anime from which I've only see the very introduction. And the characters are... meh. Everyone is hyped because the show didn't have the time to show any huge flaw, we've only see the premise.

Made In Abyss is like a packaged big Christmas gift. It's beautiful on the outside but I'm waiting to see what's inside. A solid show so far, tho.

Made in abyss. Not a bad show but lacked in substance excluding shock factor and had weak characters. Not a lot happened plot wise either.

Your Lie in April. Pretty bad show that mocked whatever themes it was going for. Dragged a lot. Weak characterization all around.

Basically about any anime that's trying to win the viewers praise by trying hard to be a very emotional anime while it isn't even good. Aka the first 5 mentioned. Fairy Tail is just unbearably childish and boring.

Kimi no na wa...not like it's downright bad but one expects something life changing when you see the score (and people gushing) but the story is just so-so.

Made in Abyss...People pick it up seeing the score, not knowing they just got roped into watching unapologetically ped* piece.

Wolf Children...the characters are massively unlikeable and it's one of the 'playing it up on feelings" things, which by itself is unlikeable.

"If you were given the chance to DECREASE the score of an anime, which anime would it be?"

What's the point?
People will still love this title despite the lower score and my hatred for it.



OP I don't get the hostility towards Cowboy Bebop. Yes, it's not everybody cup of tea but it's nicely done also nobody forces you to watch it.
Maybe you hate it's fandom but we are not that vocal at least from 10 or more years ago.
