Hi, roy here...

I just wanted to make this thread sole purpose of opinions on this matter.

Does the representation of opinion when it comes to a certain anime matter to you?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Personally, I divide opinions on anime into two categories:
One being:
Oppressive opinions/ Here's what I consider an oppressive opinion:


OR



I personally dislike such opinions only when they are abused or done for self satisfactory. Or done to bait fanboys into starting unnecessary opinionated arguments.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Second being:
A well-presented opinion. Here's what I consider a well presented:


I personally prefer these types of opinions only when they are produced in a well mannered way.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, does the representation of opinion matter to?

Yes I agree with you but I figure everyone would prefer the latter.

It helps but generally I will watch what I want to watch.

However at least 9/10 opinions on an anime at least here will be the oppressive type you mentioned. I'm just as guilty sometimes but I try not to be.

I don't like arguments where they say "this is the only good show in this genre/demographic"

Seems like they're trying to piss people who actually like that genre/demographic.

Usually I don't bother with others opinions of the show.
But if it comes to the point were i cant decide whether to watch and not.
I typically prefer the person who has a more well-mannered opinion like you stated above OP

frankly NO, after being on MAL for some time i realized, that tastes really differ, some might like this but others wont .... an opinion "might" interest me if it measures/gauges solely the amount of effort put into said anime (of course basing on his opinion) and those are kinda hard to find on MAL, because most of them believe that this is impossible to accomplish, however I AM setting a very high standard here, so not expecting mush from a bunch of 18 year-olds.

A well thought out opinion is always going to be in my considerations when looking for an anime. It shows that someone took their time to write out their thoughts so that everyone else can see, but since this is entertainment we are looking for whether anime or manga in the end it really just counts if you know what you're looking for. Someone can say anime X is not great because reason Y, but I would think most people would still try to give some anime a chance because entertainment is something that can be judged, but not be judged for you. At least I hope so.

Look, judge me if you want, but I am not always up for backing up my opinions sometimes you just want to yell out ''I hate (anime b) so much'' of course if it's done to lure fanboys, that is just pointless in and of itself. Toolazy7argumentation.

I don't care, same goes with games. Maybe only if I know the user and I think he or she has good tastes.

If there's one thing I have learned from being here on MAL it's that it's impossible to state your opinion without being shit on like if someone says I love Naruto an asshole will come in and say you got shit taste but what they fell to realize is that everyone has there own opinion and they make themselves look like dumbasses without realizing it so yes it does matter to me but it's hard to find good opinions these days

Say you like naruto but people will just provide arguments as to why they don't like it ignore them if you don't like their opinion. I think naruto is shit personally but if you like it then enjoy it.

Opinions in the first category are a piece of trash. The ones in the second category are much better imo.

When it comes to subjective media like anime it's hard to have a "right" and "wrong" opinion.

I personally much prefer the latter opinion you depicted and than the previously ones you depicted.

oh it happens allright :)

you have no idea the shitstorm i got when i sad i didn't like death note :D (my mesage box was filled to the max and still comming in saying i had "shit taste" that i'm a clannad ... and stuff like that :)

some fanboys go to great lengths to defend something if they deem worth it ;)

and there i was... not even hating death note xD i personaly just couldn't watch it :) but that was a long time ago (around the time i joined MAL haha)

it's the internet ;) the internet is filled with trolls, fanboys, haters and people who just want to discuss their hobbies... and even in those you have haters, whiners, fanboys, etc. :D

But when I posted my opinion on Haruhi (it wasn't even that insulting), ppl started flaming me and of course the usual clannad-is-shit-taste here on MAL.

It's just, even if you're opinion is tame there's no way people in MAL will really agree with it.
