MAL is the most popular anime listing site and its ranking shows more credibility than random youtube list, should I use it for arguement as well about How F/z is better because it is rated higher than UBW?

| Code Geass...I guess I just don't like mecha anime. |
| Took an hour to find this signature |
| Here's my list of anime series that IMHO doesn't actually live up to the hype: 1. Angel Beats! Many people loved this anime, especially Kanade. But I seriously think that AB! and Kanade herself isn't as godly as people make it out to be. Don't get me wrong, the characters and their backstories are quite interesting (such as Otonashi's past). But... no, everything else just didn't really appeal to me. So I ended up following my friend's suggestion to drop it after Episode 10. Furthermore, I only saw Kanade as an okay character. Dull, but still okay. The problem is... she is overwhelmingly overrated! 2. Sword Art Online Yeah, here comes the big guy himself, the grand-daddy of ultra-overrated anime series (I might be exaggerating there). While I found SAO to be rather enjoyable the first time I watched it, I began to pay less and less attention to that anime as time goes on, especially with those Sao Fengs (SAO fanboys) in the mix. I eventually ended up being a guy who likes to mock SAO for being a bad show with its many-many flaws and near-zero redeeming qualities. Man, if I already figured out about all that from the start... 3. Tokyo Ghoul Yeah, once again, I'm raising hell about Tokyo Ghoul. People were hyping this anime like crazy. Uh, not just the anime itself, but especially Kaneki, that one pathetic protagonist who's so loved by fans just because of how he looks (with his black ghoul outfit, white hair, black nails, and a creepy mask - not counting his ghoul powers) while totally overlooking his other aspects. I braved the whole 1st season just to see if Kaneki was that awesome and if the anime was actually good. And I was wrong... really wrong. 4. Kyoukai no Kanata I only watched about 1-2 episodes of that anime. Many people seemed to love it just because it was made by KyoAni, and Mirai was notorious for her "fuyukai desu". But, to be frank, just watching those 2 first episodes was enough to make me say that Kyoukai no Kanata wasn't all that great. 5. Damnachi err I mean Danmachi Thanks to Desta err I mean Hestia's gigantic hype, I ended up watching Danmachi. And, well, after just one episode, I could already see where this anime is going (especially with its main character voiced by none other than Kiritod's voice actor). Hestia herself is... well... not so good, and not so bad. She's just OK, but she is definitely OVERHYPED. |

I do not think MAL ratings are credible as you can just read my post above your last post, I am just showing you your logic. VNDB listing site ratings = credible Anime listing site ratings =/= not credible Why is that, because fuck logic? opinion de facto? Some kind of magic? Also lets say for one minute that MAL ratings are not credible and VNDB ratings are(which might be true), then what? Why Tenshi_ is using ratings as to shut down minority opinions then, contradiction between Fate/ fans? Last time I checked I never attacked VN fans or VN in general. |

| I don' t think I am trying to shut down anyone's opinion ,"minority" or not.I just sated the reasons why I mentioned about those links in my previous post. People are free to criticize what they want and I am perfectly alright with it as long as they are constructive. |

But as the supreme fleet admiral who leads entire fleets, he's really a godly person. Don't you think so, too? Müller said: I think he's quite godly as a groom, too. |
| I can't speak for the second season since I haven't watched it yet but the first season of UBW was actually more enjoyable than reading that segment of the VN. But I guess people were also hyping up UBW like it was the second coming of christ so ofc it was never going to live up to the hype. |

| i have to say that's too many for me. maybe because my taste wierd. just look at my drop list. soo many famous anime in there. and only for this season. Owari No Seraph: Over shounen cliche, even black clover better than it in cliche. animation suck even it art good, character development are week, and it joke are not funny for me. Oregairu: this is just Antisocial people fix his problem, add romance, add little friendship and done. soo many dialogue meaningless, not like season 1. and every problem simply fixing quickly and forced for me. it story character start annoying with too many flag on it. Arslan: have too slow paced, the antagonist is annoying and childish, revenge cliche is strong in this series. Yamada-kun: all character other than yamada become useless. dont take me serious, as i said, i have wierd taste. |

| I really don't know why Kill La Kill was that hyped, it was boring, had pretty bad animation and was just stupid. |
 |
| I don't keep up with new releases or hype or whatever, so it's hard for me to be disappointed by it. |

"If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| UBW has the problems that: 1. It was WAY overhyped. 2. While some VN readers wanted EVEN MORE dialogue/thoughts, anime-onlys wanted less of them... can't please everyone it seems 3. The most recent episode was probably the worst of the whole series and now quite a few people use that as an excuse to say that the whole series is bad, as if the most recent episode had been the whole series. I mean look at the ranking! Just because of 1(!) episode the ranking fell by about 10 positions on MAL. |

Tenshi_Shura said: A lot.AzureDaora said: There are a lot of things that live up to hype. For example... Most monogatari, most recent madhouse stuff, Railgun S, Nichijou, Madoka, etc. In this season, Arslan Senki, Kekkai Sensen, and Ore Monogatari come to mind. |

Unyilkdr said: The only part of Monogatari so far that is notably worse is Nisemonogatari and its still head and shoulders above most of the dross that comes out. Neko:Kuro seems underwhelming because its not completely self contained, all of the resolution comes from Hanekawa's arc in Second Season and Hanamonogatari is excellent, its my 3rd favorite arc so far.Monogatari series other than bake and second season are suck, madhouse give use death parade and mahou sensou, nichijou never get hyped from the first place. |
DejWo said: F/SN UBW the most obvious contestant,Akame ga Kill! ditto. Gintama was hardly funny. Kingdom is cliché shounen. Rainbow is shounen trying to be seinen. Magi is quite bad.HxH movies are terrible. Eureka Seven AO is terrible "sequel" to good series. Zankyou no Terror did not have much besides good animation and OST. You imply like shonen is inherently bad. And you're wrong. |

Heck, most Kyoani stuff get hyped. |

Feaor said: hanamonogatari have self centered story and annoying antagonist. Tsukimonogatari is very predictable and have annoying dialogoe, especially that dollsgirls. and again, i find nekomonogatari is best arc outside main series. because it explaining how hanekawa feeling towards araragi really good. as i said, my taste really wierd.Unyilkdr said: The only part of Monogatari so far that is notably worse is Nisemonogatari and its still head and shoulders above most of the dross that comes out.

Imaishi said: Yes boring. I didn't take any enjoyment out of the show whatsoever. It tried to be way to serious when it was just stupid. I fell asleep on multiple occasions while watching it so yeah. The only redeeming factor of the show is that guy with his pink nipples.Milk_is_Special said: I really don't know why Kill La Kill was that hyped, it was boring, had pretty bad animation and was just stupid. >boring >bad animation are you sure you talk about Kill la Kill? i can understand it not being to someone's tastes, but boring? |

DejWo said: robis798 said: You imply like shonen is inherently bad. And you're wrong. Nope? I rated HxH quite high and FMA:B is good as well. One Piece would be better if it did not have such slow pacing. Rainbow feels ridiculous because it tries too hard to be mature and dark and comes off as bad. Kingdom on the other hand is...well,cliché shounen. From characters to fights. I personally do not enjoy shounen clichés much and the execution was lacking and seeing the same thing over and over,there is no wonder person gets fed up with it. But Kingdom is seinen. |
AzureDaora said: but, that CGI bro?Death Parade is generally receiving positive responses, especially during when it was airing. Mahou Sensou is the only one I know that is in negative light. AzureDaora said: I remember Nichijou being hyped. Heck, most Kyoani stuff get hyped. nope it's not. i still can remember how few viewer in it trailer on youtube compare another kyoani stuff. and it disc doesn't sell well, even almost stopped in the middle. |

DejWo said: Inferno_Cop said: But Kingdom is seinen. Yup,I saw the tags But it is shounen at heart I would not consider it seinen anime if by seinen we mean more mature anime/manga. Like K-On. |

DejWo said: Seinen has nothing to do with maturity, it has everything to do with what demographic a manga is marketed towards, K-On! is every bit as much a seinen manga as Berserk is.Yup,I saw the tags But it is shounen at heart I would not consider it seinen anime if by seinen we mean more mature anime/manga. |
