I think it deserves the low score for now, because everything that we've seen so far seems like build-up for something big. When that something hits the scene, maybe the score will go up.

Because people would rather think that the production team is incompetent than to consider that the "faults" they think they have spotted lies with their own inability to understand a story?

A simple example was the "tie" episode. That was so obviously done on purpose, but rather than think what that means, most viewers would rather think that they are smarter than the writers, the director, the continuity people, and well the entire creative staff.

That said, TenYasha does have a point, the show is attempting something big, either it will pay off or it will be a big flaming pile (my guess is it is going to pay off), unfortunately MAL doesn't work the way he states: far too many people judge a show in the first 3 minutes and then never change their score.

MaL isn't the official database for anime anyways so don't let it get to you. For me, the third episode was really good and actually made me see the first two episodes in a different light.

Well, this anime is airing. So I guess the score so far doesn't say so much.
But the Anime isn't doing great in any category. The main characters are nothing special. The romance part doesn't pay of either. The artwork tries to be unique but for me that makes it even worse. The story does have potential - but do to only build up episodes we can only guess how good it will be at the end.

6.61? For MAL standards, that's mediocre at best. I only watched the 1st episode, but i don't think the rating should be this low. unless they messed up badly in the episodes i have yet to watch..

Yeah I don't exactly know what buildup everyone is talking about because it was all mediocre slice of life, then it randomly had some action. Also the art is bad and there is practically no character development or personality. It pretends like there is romance, but then it goes way off course of that, too. It really isn't good in any category.

Just because you are too dim to understand things doesn't mean that they don't exist.

Allow me to illuminate your miserable existence. Every time the animation shows those numbers, they are not the day the action occurs in by the parallel dimension the action occurs in.

newbies are watching anime and they to prefer animes like Akame ga Kill and Sword Art Online, which is why you see those animes with 8+ ratings (which I don't think they deserve tbh). People rate on enjoyment rather than objectively.

You know, even when I was a newbie in anime (hmm 8 years ago I think) I never liked uber shits like AGK, NGNL, SAO and other hyped (in the middle of the season by kids in most) shows.
I'm searching for anime with 'something'. This show definitely has 'something'. I can't say what is that 'something', it is just a feeling, which doesn't allow you to miss any second of every episode. It is rare in general.
For me Ushinawareta is one of the best shows of this season and even this year. If someone can appreciate shows like this one, I think that this person has a good taste.

Actually I don't mind fanservice if it is well made (Nisemonogatari for example), but I just hate fanservice served for example in AGK and NGNL, it is worst of possible ways for developing fanservice. I think it is made just for stupid people, because story is a trash too.

Ushinawareta lacks in those stupid things (I'm glad) ,
so I think it is the main reason for that low rating.

PS,
I have my own technique for searching good shows(if not older than 4 years).
Rating 6-7,5 -> THERE IS 90% chance for very good or even masterpiece show
Rating 7,8-> 8,4 maybe it will be good,
but don't expect nothing special.
Rating 8,5+ =80% chance for uber shit.
Of course there will be exceptions, but in most cases it is accurate.

Oh man I died laughing. Glasslip has been easily one of the worst shows this year. The plot is nonexistent, the drama is forced and out of nowhere, and it was overall bad. You basically discredited everything else you said by implying Glasslip was anywhere near good.

There's nothing really to understand. There's just random slice of life, then a forced and incoherent plot featuring characters spewing incorrect bullshit that isn't even in their field of study. He literally was just saying nonsense at the end of episode 9. Secondly, "Allow me to illuminate your miserable existence"? Are you in eighth grade? Also, I don't really know what your last sentence means, since it was so grammatically incorrect. Can you rephrase it so I can tell what you meant to say?

Not nonsense. The who idea of a "save point" was in keeping with the theory that this show is using a Galge to explain quantum physics. Also, there is a reason only Yui can travel into the past.

Fugicara said:

The problem with my last sentence is that I typed "by" instead of "but". Does that help?

Though crap, in re-watching the end of nine, I noticed that my theory about the numbers is wrong. A small point in my overall theory, but still, damn I should have noticed it before.

Your ratings for NGNL and AKG are 9/10 and you have the nerve to talk about how bad Glasslip was? ROFTL.

I think the problem there is that you compared my scores to your scores, rather than seeing that I generally rate things highly. Our scales are going to be different, so you can't really say I "should" rate things what you rate them. I typically enjoy all kinds of anime, so I rate them highly, but if I would rate them lowly, I would drop them. I'm honestly surprised I've gotten this far into this anime, so I'll give you that. But to criticize my ratings for specific animes without criticizing my scale doesn't really make sense in this case. You don't see me bashing you for rating Non Non Biyori a 10, so why do you bash my other ratings? I've only said points for why I think Ushinawareta is bad, and everyone else attacks me personally instead of saying why they think the show is good or why one thing I said was invalid. Talk about the show; don't attack me as a person.

AGK and NGNL aren't stupid shows btw

as someone who loved every second of NGNL, and enjoyed AKG enough for 9/10 scoring(I am slightly generous, part of being MAL doesn't have .5 raings(AGK was more of a 8.5 for me))

I am enjoying this to, I enjoyed glasslip(sure it was no masterpiece), don't call things stupid or shit just because its not your cup of tea

the score affects if I will pick up the show at times, if I don't know much about a show, and check the score, if its to low I would generally just skip it

personally I wish MAL would show the score of those who completed a show, and those who didn't seperately(basically brining everyone who finished its score seperate from the rest)

Because this show is bad. If anything 6.61 is generous. People rate shit way too high nowadays.

You can justify all you want, but this show sucked. It was executed poorly compared to the VN, and only like 4 episodes contained information that mattered. The animation was also atrocious.

You can hate on all the hyped up shows too, like NGNL, SAO, and others that you named. But those shows are still universes better than this was, and they earned their ratings.

This show is the Glasslip of fall season. Don't even blame the "newbies rating other shows higher". That's a fucking pitiful excuse. You just have shit taste.

I feel like even if you hate SAO, you have to recognize that the production values are way higher and at least give it that. Like rate it higher because the animation and soundtrack are far superior. But that's just me; you don't have to change your rating because of my opinion.

Honestly this anime deserves this score. There are a lot of things not right about it.

Though, a lot of other anime on MAL are overrated... honestly this anime isn't as bad as half of anime on MAL.

So what I am saying is that 6.6 or whatever shouldn't indicate the show is inferior to more than half of the other shows. Unfortunately, in reality it does.

I suspect that this anime is just not popular (ie. doesn't attract high scoring noobs)..

In terms of being an animated program, no way is this a 2/10. That's saying this is as bad as Titantic: The legend goes on which is known as a god awful work of animation. Not many anime hit that level and Ushina is hardly in the same ballpark. I gave it a 8, but I can understand people seeing it as a 4 or 5, but 2? Lol, funny stuff.

A scoring system only has some meaning when used to compare stuff. If we take into account that the mean score on MAL is 7.4 then this anime is considered "bad" regardless of the fact that its score is actually >6. Anime on MAL are not overrated, there are far too many haters that rate stuff 1 & 2 using multiple accounts than fanboys who rate everything 10; lots of people think that having more than hundreds of completed anime and their Score Dev. under -1.0 does make them a special snowflake who has a better judgment compared to every other MAL user; then they go ranting that everyone except them has shit taste.

Agree, mostly because they usually can't say why exactly a show is bad (or when they say it, it's obvious that they didn't understand what they watched).
The fact that different people may like different things is not even considered.
Humans are suspicious and jealous creatures. When they see something perfect, they wanna find a flaw.

Because a good show doesn't only come from one factor. Their art, dialogue, animation, accuracy, story, and any other deciding factors each plays a part on how good a show is.

Oh and a show is not overrated if it's popular.

@Takuan_Soho I just don't know what to say to you. You made me laugh by saying "anyone that doesn't like this anime is stupid" while you can't even comprehend such simple matter like the date.
And about the tie you complaint about, people saw it as a mistake because it changed color after the transition/after the cut NOT before. It's called bad cinematography.

I don't know how your taste is (You gave this show a 9 and yet you gave NGNL a 1, so I think you too are the troll here), but a 12 episode show that left a cliffhanger at episode 1 and doesn't proceeds until episode 8 doesn't deserves a good score.
And not only that, they made episode 2-7 unnecessary. I'm not saying the story is bad or anything, in fact I really loved it, but I really hate how poorly executed it was

Oh and I only give 1(hated it) or 10(loved it) to raise the overall ratings. If I give it another score than those 2, then I think the show deserves the overall score/ I just don't care about it. Unless I'm writing a review, I only give a score based on my personal enjoyment.

My biggest problem with it is that it felt like a cheap knockoff of Steins;Gate. I probably would have given it a higher score if I hadn't already seen it though.

My other problem with it was that the slow, slice of life episodes took up too much of it's airtime. Were it a 22-24 episode anime I could see it working better, but IMO the writers should have focused more on the characters' cyclical, futile attempts to save Kaori, rather than the slice of life that led up to the initial incident.
Behold! The way is clear! We're free! I, the mad scientist, Hououin Kyouma, have triumphed under a twofold assault, from SERN and the Organization, by twisting the very fundamentals of time and space! The world as we know it has been put to rights, and a future of chaos awaits us. This, my friends, is the choice of Steins;Gate!

Why is it in time loop stories only the main reason for going back in time is the only thing that cannot (or is very hard to) change? I mean Yui did all of these different things in each timeline EXCEPT for saving Kaori. Either nothing can change (one set timeline) or anything can change (diverging timelines). In other words it is stupid for Yui to be able to do different things that impact the world/timeline yet only Kaori HAS TO DIE (coma) even by mystical means if necessary each time. Lock her in a room? Oh she has an aneurism. The fate and impact of other people don't matter. That bus driver, the car driver, or nobody going to jail for running over a girl in the street...nope nobody cares about those changes so they are okay to happen...BS.

It ruins the whole story imo because the characters have to act stupid just so the same event can happen over and over which shouldn't even be necessary.

Are you out of you mind with this comparison to Glasslip?
I get it. Glasslip was watched by much more people then usual bad anime.
Both are bad but Ushinawareta at least has story and goes somewhere normally.
In Glasshit story is NOTHING and it goes nowhere, supernatural plot was completely pointless, fucking alternate universe episode for nothing and ending is vague for no reason. Maybe director tried to be deep for last time with it.
