It's not the best thing in the world, but it's really enjoyable. Why is this ranked so low?

It looks 90'ish to me, but i like it. So maybe since it looks 90'ish some people might not like it hence the rating. But, it also hasn't proven it self to be worthy of being above a 7/10, so a 7.50-7.70 would be nice at the end of the series depending on how it's adapted all the way to the end.

It's the weakest one of Rumiko's comedy anyway. And y'know, people seek "plot (I'm not sure if they really know what it means)" in every kind of anime, even in episodic ones.

7's too f-high for this show.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.

The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

The show's still in it's setup stage at the moment. After the plot kicks in, we'll see how things go.

I suspect that people who aren't a fan of Takahashi's prior works may have a difficult time getting into this series.

This thing is more like Ranma or Urusei Yatsura but with less crazy humour, Mr.pro-Rumiko-fan-san.

Past Rumiko series have a ranking around 7.85, so ~7.10 is not low.

well, it's still relatively early in the season honestly. The only people who are actually rating this are either the ones who really like it and give it a high score, or those who just hate it and give it low scores.
I think most people would wait until the end to give their final scores, unless its shows like Gintama of course.

I dunno, I think a "7" is just right for the show thus far. I'm more familiar with Takahashi's horror than I am with her humor (somewhat, I saw a little bit of Ranma 1/2 and InuYasha, but I've mostly watched some one-shot OVA adaptations), and there's some light-hearted moments in here. Does it feel fresh? No, there's much funnier anime out there and I don't think her humor's... standing out that well these days, but for what it is, it's okay, if formulaic.

Compared to inuyasha, ranma and urusei yatsura, this is her weakest work :(
It takes way too much from the others and plays it too safe, the others had something unique, this resembles bleach alot which is good but it needs more memorable characters.

Even though Yuri Kuma was more underrated while it was airing this has a low score due to low viewership and 90s style animation/humor.

What ? I do not see any similarity between Owari no Seraph and Kyoukai no Rinne.

And I think 7.75 is a little too low for a very good show like Owari no Seraph

Kyoukai is slow paced and people are judging based on that. A lot of people did the same thing with Akastuki no Yona this year. Owari on the other hand is pretty much a typical subpar shounen. There is literally nothing special about either of these series, but they have some enjoyment I guess.

Akastuki no Yona was very good from the 1st episode.

Also, I judge anime based on the episodes I've seen, and so far Kyoukai looks like sh*t. The anime feels like it is made for children below 12 years old.

So far I have to admit nothing's really grabbed me about this series yet. I remember being thrilled when the manga was first announced, just because I'm such a fan of Rumiko's work, and perhaps I set my initial expectations too high since Inuyasha has long held a fond place in my heart. I didn't keep up with the Rinne manga since I honestly grew bored with it, but I thought I'd give the anime a chance and.. mostly I've found my feelings to remain the same, but it's easier to digest in this form so I'll stick with it.

The Kyoukai no Rinne characters do feel a little washed out and too reminiscent of Takahashi's prior archetypes, and overall the story seems pretty weak. Despite that I certainly don't hate this series though. It's fun, light-hearted, and nice to watch at the end of the day when I just want a little humour and relaxation.

I'm not watching this with any high expectations for in-depth plot or characters, and for what it is, I think it's harmless and enjoyable enough. I'll take it as my "snack" anime of the season.

It really does pale in comparison to her other works though, and I can definitely understand the low rating and feelings of disappointment (I shared them as well at first). I'm not saying it deserves outright hatred, but it's not of the same caliber as some other really excellent series, nor should it be compared to them. It's a shame she didn't create another classic, but I'll live. I guess in the end what I'm trying to say is I'm neutral regarding the show. I don't particularly have strong feelings toward it one way or the other, but I like it enough to watch it casually.

I really like how this show reminds me of Ranma 1/2 (not liking Inuyasha too much), giving this show an 8 right now. Depending on how it plays out, a 9 isn't out of question, either.
I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl

The problem is this is a traditional-shonen anime that's not anyone fancy so much this day, fan nowadays tend to love aggressive hardcore shonen like Shingeki No Kyojin, Tokyo Ghoul, Code:Geass and ect. So, softcore show like this barely able to breath now. by the way, I still like this show very much, its light and heartwarming. I rate 7.

Nope. It only gets worse. If you want, watch just episodes 14-16, those are kinda good but the rest is just boring fluff with no substance.

I don't think so. I actually enjoyed this show in the beginning and I found its slowness and nostalgic feel pretty refreshing but it turned stale pretty fast. There are several problems with it but those main ones are: a) childish jokes, b) reappearing stupid and boring villains, c) overly flegmatic and indifferent Sakura whose attitude simply kills any attempts on romance. But the main problem is that they are mostly concentrating on people who tries to do harm to main character whereas it would be a lot better if their main focus were ghosts and students with supernatural problems (those were the best episodes so far).

Steer clear from this anime!! I agree with Mich666, it just gets worse and dumber each passing episode. They re-use the same problem, the greedy con father, the demon and the blue haired guy that wants revenge. The characters are just too dull. There's really nothing new being introduced. You'll waste your time. I wished I stopped earlier, might as well finish the last episode for this season.
