They shouldn't even be allowed to watch anime since their scores are too low, we need a law that makes it mandatory to have an average of at least 6.

Hey, some of those anime in the 6k-7k rank are pretty good. ;)
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process.

I am inclined to say that they might hate most of anime they have watched with a very low mean score they have. Then again, that is not always the case here, maybe they just have different way taking how to score.

@kamisama751
the majority here use the 7-10 scale
so anything below 7 is so bad
(maybe you will find a good one of them but after watching a lot of shit)
and yes , you need to be a masochist to endure all this shit !!

Still not really. Some old shows are nearly only watched by people who are more into this medium and got critical thinking. So the average score of certain old/not well known shows will be under 7 even though they are better than many above 7. For exmaple: Denshinbashira Elemi no Koi.

A lot of people derive their scaling from the scores in general. They learn to "feel" the rating, so to speak. When you see a lot of anime with, say, score of 6.something, you can say, oh, so that's what they mean a 6 rating means. Then you watch some 9 rating shows and you say the same thing about the rating of 9.something. Basically, you watch a lot of anime and you find that you like or dislike some shows with a certain rating, but you come to grasp the general idea of what those ratings are.

That's why many people use the 5-10 scale, where 10 represents really well enjoyed, or anime with little flaws, 9 is really really good stuff with a medium flaw that makes it not get a 10, 8 is generally okay, enjoyable, 7 is pretty lacking in some aspects, but still okay, 6 is borderline bad, and 5 is just "why did I watch this, it's really bad".

Basically, when you observe average ratings, and then try to make sense of them, you naturally start rating that way. That's why I'd find it weird for somebody to have an average of 4. I have an average of almost 8, but that's because I actually rarely rate something I didn't really like, so it's biased towards "greatness".

Well they probably don't hate anime as much as they hate seeing the same old repeated story lines and tropes with no new twists. Diamonds are rare these days so I can see why some people would have a low overall score.

I honestly think if a person rarely rates over a 6 that maybe they should find another hobby cause anime just isn't their thing anymore and its time to move on.

I don't think so. You can enjoy an anime and acknowledge its flaws. For example, I gave Fairy Tail a 5 for its deus ex machina, repetitive storylines, and generic characters, but I love watching the show! It's especially good after watching something serious. I can just turn off my brain and enjoy battle sequences and friendship speeches.

No. Everyone has different taste and just because they have a score like that doesn't completely mean they hate anime

My score is 6.3 but I just walk intk pretty much any anime with average to low expectations no matter how there rated

It would depend on how much anime they've watched. Maybe they watched a lot of terrible anime, I don't know. Hmm, or they could be notoriously picky.

Exactly what I wanted to hear/say. Even people with over 9 mean ratings are just spammers.
dont't watch that anime if you are going to give it 1* and cry 10000 words in review about it.

Like I just don't get why they still keep watching anime if they hate 90% of the animes out there. How do they manage to keep watching only to end up getting disappointed most of the time?
I am 90% sure he was being facetious.

No. Also, I can't say that people with mean score above 8.50 'love' anime.

My mean score is still pretty close to 5.00 but if i were to continue watching seasonal anime for a few years it could certainly drop below 4.00 also maybe they just use a very harsh rating system.

They just rate strictly based on critical standpoints. It's really hard to think on anyone who rates by raw enjoyment alone and have a mean under 4.

I used to go through my list by calibrating the scores against a certain criteria. I have 600 entries so now the process is just cumbersome to me. Once I complete a show, I never look back at the rating as it's still fresh in my mind.

I know people with average scores less than 5 but there are still just as passionate as us folk who are more lenient with our rating scale. They have a tendency to dislike more stuff, that's all.

I'm not actively seeking out bad shows to watch, who does that? Time is short, spend it wisely.

Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength.
