I Honestly hope this is an early April fools joke. If not, i'm not a fan of the emoji's because they inaccurately show my opinion of a show i've seen. Also the average is now just a picture, meaning my 7.93 average is now just the photo meaning good(a 7). Also very inaccurate. If this stays for the next few days, I'd assume this is permanent meaning I'd have to completely re rate all my hundreds of entries lower than what the picture symbolizes. Honestly if this stays I'd probably discontinue using MAL altogether and use a new site moving forward. This would be unfortunate since I've been using it for years

I completely agree, the number system was way too complex. However, I think if you went with a metric that involved some form of oppai or thighs the clarity in the scoring system would improve significantly. If this is introduced please credit me.

All the best

Yes I also just realized that it's not April Fools for Americans yet. In Europe it is.

This reminds me of something a middle school teacher would do to be more "hip" with the kids. To be honest it is hard to understand these new emojis, I think what people wanted was a decimal system more than just emojis. Emojis do not help when rating. When you put together a number rate and a comment it is more logical to understand what kind of anime people are reading about. I think this is not the way to get "younger" people to come onto this website to rate anime. In fact I think everyone who is not in the 3rd grade thinks this is a super cringe decision. I just joined this website literally 2 weeks ago, and enjoyed it very much, but now that there are emojis for rates it makes me want to not use this site anymore and go rate things on Crunchy roll or something else. There are much better ways to get younger kids on here and if you have questions / need ideas for that please contact me. Other than that this is not a very good system and I also agree and pray this is a April Fools joke. If not I feel like you would lose customers more than bringing them in because this idea is just so ridiculous.

Man, here in my region isn't April Fools yet. I hope that update it really April Fools joke kkkk.

But, if it isn't, give the users an option to chose the system. Each user would choose the best system for its interests.

Yikes, they really got me with that one... totally forgot it was April Fool's Day, what with the corona virus, and not being able to move around. I guess what really gave it away was the fact there's no choice to go back to the OG scoring in the settings. Hope this isn't around to stay though, I kinda hate this emoji system. Besides, it took me all of two years to get used to the numbers and how to use them, so don't take that away from me!

While this is a good idea, might I suggest that we actually refer to online braille in order to rate series? Everyone knows that you are easily able to read by touching a smooth screen.
