Many of you may shy away from hentai, but for those like me who fap proudly into beat of our own drums may know that most hentai ratings are substantially lower than anime ratings.

But I dont believe that its simply due to hentai being shit.

I believe the recently relieved and possibly heavily relaxed mal poster who is rating said hentai might make a more open minded and objective decision.

Most hentai probably hovers from the 4-6 point range, whereas I bet most anime on mal hovers from 7.5->9.2.

Are hentai fap masters a more objective crowd?

There's no such thing as objective ratings, just conflations of consensus opinion as fact.

Is there anything that proves that hentai raters are not simply using a different rating scale? I wouldn't even know what to rate by (story vs fappability)

Ratings can be objective, or at least intended to be objective.

I dont see many people rating hentai 9.5 because "Really smart animes changed my life, would recommend"

Actually now that I think of it, hentai is quite amenable to objective ratings. I'm sure we could devise some sort of system based on how long it takes to do the deed while watching each hentai.

Because is fucking porn, it's totally irrelevant to me and I use it for self-pleasure only. Do you have a better reason to fap other than orgasming?

Now that you mentioned, I have a few exceptions that I actually don't consider as hentai since they focused on story, messages and other elements (I treat them like I would treat good eroges).

But no, I don't think something that only serves to make you jerk off even deserves to be rated seriously. It would be rather strange give a 10/10 (5/10 in my porn rating) to... Oni Chichi for example, while I have Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu with the same rating.

So I basically did this:
Just for "fun" and highly "entertaining"? It's like an enjoyable flat trainwreck or a stupid but funny ecchi series: 5/10 : Really Enjoyable Hentai
Bellow this there are good, regular, bad and horrible hentai series.

And then, I treat those as I would treat normal series on MAL.

If you fap ten times, then it's a ten. If you fap nine times, then it's a nine. Anything below five faps is shit, and anything above ten is ...

Definitely. People are gonna give bad hentai bad ratings and vice versa but when it comes to anime theres fanboys who will religiously give a 10 to everything that has to do with the anime no matter how bad/good it is. Doesnt work the same with hentai imo

hentai
a. still suffers from sequel syndrome (sequel is higher rated than the original cause people who didn't like the original didn't check the sequel durr hurr), tho the only example i know of is Oni ChiChi Rebuild
b. doesn't seem to attract users with top heavy lists (just like ovas and other short anime in general actually)

but this poster gets it right:

Most hentai are shittier in terms of characterization, production values, so on and so forth, making the viewing experience worse in turn, and thus are usually rated lower on average, at least in my opinion. There were some good ones with higher ratings, but they remain few and far between.

For the record: H manga > H anime

All ratings are based on your personal enjoyment and thats why these are based on opinions and are subjective.

It will be hard to have an objective rating, because then you really need a base of rating. You need criteria where you can look at and which you can compare with the anime media.

Thats said it will always be a subjective thing.

yes but the overall scope of the ratings can be more realistic.

anyone who thinks an average rating of 7.5 on mal is "normal" is quite honestly an idiot.

Doesn't really matter for the most part. I'd get it if it were VNs but it isn't.

Yeah adding an extra 60 hours does that for you.

Are you aware that not all VNs have sex in them? And a lot of the ones that do barely have any in them?
