Bro, then why Kirito is in top 20 most favorited characters and why everybody talks about SAO? SAO's rating in MAL is good but it's one of the most favorited animes in MAL. Check the list that Most Favorited Animes. Ok now i get it that you don't really know the meaning of overrated and underrated That's why you think that high rated animes are underrated |

| Overrated -> Anime I hate and are popular. Underrated -> Anime I like and are unpopular. |

I remember this anime back in the days is at least a 8 score. Times have changed but it is still one of the most talked about series. I dont find anything special than your average shounen series. |

| @CuteAssTiger, yeah its more of 5-7/10. I think its a 6/7/10 its not bad but its not brilliant. :) |

| Overrated: Haikyu!! I've struggled through this series twice now. It has a massive rating of 8.5+ for the first season. The animation is nice and crisp but that's about the only positive I can find for the series. Little to no character development. Yes the 2 main guys don't get along in ep 1 and by ep3 they are p much best friends, also the one dude who quit watches two dudes he doesn't know play one time and suddenly is inspired to start playing again. I mean I don't know much about volleyball but I've watched many other series about sports/games I know nothing about and have enjoyed them. It plods along at a snail's pace with all in all very little happening. Not hating at all on this show, I have tried to watch it twice but always abandon it after S1 just generally confused about how highly it's rated. I'll throw in an underrated also. Underrated: Devilman Crybaby The unique art style and the generally pretty tragic story kept me entertained from start to finish. Would highly recommend to anyone who hasn't watched it. |
| Kakegurui is a very popular anime to hate on here and a few other anime websites. There are valid and fair opinions and criticism towards the series (especially the final episodes. I didn't like those either), but quite a lot of the things that people disliked about it are either exaggerated, such as one popular negative review stating that there's tons of blood and vomiting IIRC when neither of those happened much or even at all as far as I remember, but other complaints are also within other gambling series that they much prefer over, such as Kaiji and No Game No Life, therefore showing hypocrisy. This is especially prevalent to the type of people that I would like to label as "gambling elitists". The "OP protagonist" is prevalent not just in Kakegurui, but in other gambling works such, especially in NGNL. I've seen many hate on Kakegurui just because the protagonist with the most experience in gambling is female while the inexperienced one is male. So with that being said, No Game No Life is definitely what I find overrated. Splashy pretty colors aside, the outcomes are even more predictable and there are a number of moments in certain games that had nothing to do with gambling whatsoever, and were just very sudden deus ex machina moments. It is simply very well loved due to a rather good-looking (in a way) perverted otaku male protagonist with a cutesy otaku loli sister that are both video gaming masters that like to take advantage of Stephanie's inexperience to sexualize her. |

That is because ngnl isn't a gambling anime. It is an ecchi isekai first and gambling second. Also I find it interesting you rated ngnl a 6 despite the critisism, my rating of no game no life is just 1 higher than yours and I loved it. |

That is because ngnl isn't a gambling anime. It is an ecchi isekai first and gambling second. Also I find it interesting you rated ngnl a 6 despite the critisism, my rating of no game no life is just 1 higher than yours and I loved it. Well, NGNL is not necessarily something I dislike. It's pretty enjoyable despite all I've said. My real rating would have been a 6.5 (I'd give it a 7 too if it wasn't for humiliating Stephanie). I mean, I listed Kakegurui as one of my favorite mangas, and I gave that and the anime a point higher than a 6 because there are still some things I heavily disliked about them (maybe I should change the anime to a 6 as well since the ending for the 1st season was that disappointing to me). Anyways, NGNL being ecchi isekai first and foremost, yes, I knew that, but I still remember many stating it as an example of what a gambling series "should" be. Many who disliked Kakegurui liked to compare it to either that or Kaiji. I would have been much more fine with their views if they weren't either so contradicting or exaggerated. Saying that the faces are ugly, that's fine. Saying that the anime-only parts of the episodes and the finale are terrible, I can definitely understand. Having opinions like the protagonist is overpowered or that series is either very predictable, repetitive, or unrealistic is fine as long as it's not compared to other stuff like I listed above, because that's contradictory. But that's what I've seen from far too many people years ago when Kakegurui was being successful, and they like to make these paragraphs as to why their much preferred anime is far deeper while shortening the basic formula of Kakegurui, when what they prefer can be summarized the same way. A few people even on Youtube tried making whole videos of it and they got called out by many as being hypocritical. |
| Overrated: Neon Genesis Evangelion. I didn't understand the gripe behind this particular show. Was not expecting a psychological twist to this mecha show. And its hidden religion troupes to this (especially to christianity). It was all over the place for me. This show was also too deep and philosophical. My head hurts trying to understand it all. Having think through this really staled my enjoyment to the show. Underrated: March Comes in Like a Lion. Really underrated show. The slow pacing of shogi in the first season 1 may have turned off a lot of people. But I personally found those shogi matches to be therapeutic and relaxing. Then when it got to the slice of life stuff with the Kawamoto family, I really enjoyed it. It honestly made me appreciate life more. It kinda sucks that many people are sleeping on this show for its slow pacing. |

Koustubh said: Why in heck does BNHA S5 has such a low starting rating? The stupid trolls are at it again, spreading their hatred as usual lol. While true there are many hating trolls, there are many that legit do not like the first episode and thus rated it on that episode alone. lol There are also many who immediately rated it a 10 and gave instant 10 reviews just to counteract the instant 1 scores/reviews or because they are fanboys. A lot of trolls on both sides. Later on when things settle down as the next few episodes air, the more "real" ratings will show itself as many of the alts are removed, but this is why I mostly stopped caring about scores alone, and this is why I think both ratings and reviews for any series with at least 10 or more episodes should have the ratings and reviews disabled for the first week, few weeks, or month while it's airing. The final season of AoT was ridiculous with many making instant 10 ratings and reviews when only the first episode aired. |

The real ratings will hopefully show up by the time the second cour starts, which is gonna be intense af. Yee. It'll likely be around an 8. It always is, so this one should likely be fine. And on a side note, ironically, it's the anime that fixes some of the biggest problems I have with the manga, so I'm pretty stoked with how this season will turn out. |
| mappa is overrated. redo of healer is overrated. overflow (hentai) is overrated. rem is overrated. AOT s4 animation is overrated. ready, I already spit out real facts. |
 a wise user of MAL said: Just to clarify, adaptations should absolutely stand on their own |
| Re:Creators is very underscored. It should be given more love imo |
 |
| Gintama's other serious arcs are also masterpieces imo but always get overshadowed by shogun assassination and farewell shinsengumi arcs since most fans consider them to be the best in the series. |
 ManWild |
| Everyone talks up dark tournament from YuYu, but I think chapter black was way better and one of the best battle shounen arcs of all time. |
ManWild said: Gintama's other serious arcs are also masterpieces imo but always get overshadowed by shogun assassination and farewell shinsengumi arcs since most fans consider them to be the best in the series. (2) Also, Yugioh GX Darkness Arc (4th season) is pretty underrated since not a lot of people actually watched it. And some of the flashbacks arcs of SKET Dance is pretty underrated too. Also, some of the fights/arcs in Hajime no Ippo since most people consider Takamura vs. Hawk arc to be the peak of the series. etch. |
 I wasted all my time in rewatching to the point of my rewatch total is higher than my overall anime total lmao |
kazzekaami said: endless eight is highly underrated from haruhi Lol. The arc gets nothing but hate and I feel bad for it |
ManWild |
| I too like Greed Island arc a lot. But, it's overshadowed by chimera ant and phantom troupe arcs. And, I liked the search for the akatsuki members arc (Or Shikamaru arc) from Naruto Shippuden. |
| Bleach's Gotei 13 Invading Army arc This one right here sure is a filler arc, but it's one hell of a fun arc to watch. This arc contains a story where the "evil clones" of Gotei 13 attacking the real Gotei 13. Some of the fight scene's animation quality here is just good-looking and pleases your goddamn eyes. I could even say it's on-par with the main battles from the canon arc's quality, especially that climax battle of Ichigo vs Yushima |

| G8 Arc in One Piece. It's a filler arc so there are people who skip it, but it's actually a good arc. It's how filler arcs SHOULD be done... it's the arc right after Skypiea for reference |

In the manga, the arc was MUCH shorter but in the anime there was bonus rounds and such so it does have filler parts in it. StrawhatAJ said: duchessliz87 said: I know, right?
