And one question: who's making these "late night slock" anime? I bet it's not the consumers. |

Enjoyability. Popularity equals haters and fujoshi. Quality... I can't imagine recommending anime to my friend with, "This is a high quality anime." I mean, it's just an entertainment. Sure it would be nice if it has a nice and complex story, superb art, and stuffs, but I don't think that's what I look for from an entertainment. Quality in anime is like, download the highest quality 1080p super HD-version. And I prefer 480p... #okay But if I have to choose, I'd go with popularity so I can get another season. I'm happy if my favorite anime is in top ten sales but not really happy if some elitists praise it. |

Quality of course. To like or dislike something purely because it's popular is foolish. |

While I admit popularity does attract me into checking out some series, I would rather have it be a quality show. When I see people who don't regularly watch anime really praise a certain series, it gets me interested, especially the people who I know watch anime fairly regularly agree with them. For example, it took me a long time to finally watch Fullmetal Alchemist because while I was intrigued by its massive popularity, I also shied away from it for that very same reason. I wasn't sure if I was going to like it and despite so many people liking it, I wasn't fully convinced if it was truly amazing as some people made it out to be. That's why popularity doesn't always equal quality - people can like it and praise it, but that doesn't mean it's truly a quality show. The nice part about popularity is more merchandise, more people to discuss it with, and easier to show it to others. The nice part about quality is something truly worth watching and possibly rewatching and discussing it with people who have seen it or may be interested in seeing it. There are some shows I'd like to see gain more popularity, but I'm also happy that they are what they are. |

Quality. I found that "mainstreaming" made me shy away from most anime that I would potentially like. Granted I was naive at the time thinking anime was just a bunch of kawaii desu ne archytypes and little girls doing pointless stuff. (ohwait sliceoflife i kid) Still I like finding anime by myself because I don't have to base my expectations off someone elses reviews. |

Quality, of course, is more essential. What's the point of watching an anime if the quality is lower than lowest depths of hell? But there's a "but". Sometimes, popularity makes a good anime rise. You can discover good anime based on its popularity such as Fullmetal Alchemist, Steins;Gate, etc. etc. Also, popularity rises some "not-so-good" animes overlapping some brilliant unpopular animes which we call "hidden gems" such as Gin no Saji (here I am again) and Hajime no Ippo (not popular because it's a long running and majority of viewers are loyal fans following it from the very start). So yeah, it depends on circumstances but I recommend picking animes based on their quality by checking reviews and source material and analyze the premise/prologue with your own judgement. |

5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |

Most of the time I just try and watch something that looks interesting that I happen to find, only later do I discover if it's popular or not. In fact I tend to avoid some of the notoriously popular series but find I get to them eventually. I'm not sure if I'd say quality is most important then so much as enjoyability, but popularity usually has little to do with it. |

Quality. Too much popularity can actually make people turn away from an anime and detest it. |

Quality. If it's overly popular I usually just avoid it. But there are a few exceptions where an anime with quality is also popular. Best example is probably Death Note. I was forced to read the first two chapters, and what a surprise. |

Disagree, watching something because it's popular and liking something because it's popular are two very different things. |
