It would be normal since everyone praised it before it got an anime, don't worry it's just people hating the new "popular" anime of the season, nothing new.

MAL without people hating popular animes wouldn't be MAL.

Not really. The show is quite entertaining but by no means perfect. It's a good watch if you're bored but if you want something serious, look away.

I read it because of the artist who did Eyeshield

i read the original webtoon first. i got it recomendation after finishing 10th dimension boys (what do the teenage boys do), and found it funny (only some first few chapter and chapter after 20's IIRC). then i found murata version later.

OPM does not feature little moe girls doing kids stuff, harem, yaoi or yuri therefore it is shit.

Seriously tho it's funny how people's views about OPM have changed.
It had so much praise as a manga but as soon as it became an anime it gets hated on.
Haters will still be like 'me ?? Hating cuz it's popular ?!! nahhh !!111 ' tho.

So does it's thread.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

I'll watch it when I'm bored and I want to see what the hype was all about later down the road.

I don't actually have any kind of life mission to choose and pick a flavor of whatever anime season is on. There was a time when I tried to do that and it nearly ruined all enjoyment I get out of anime. I rather do stuff that I'm doing. The rest may or may not come afterwards.

I do watch OPM and enjoying it (I watched it simply because of curiosity), but I'm not joining those who ride its hype train. They're just making OPM much more overrated than it already is. And still that does NOT mean that I'm a hipster by doing so.

Reddit, Youtube, Tumblr.... Honestly it seems it's becoming the new fad in the whole western anime community. Unlike SAO or SnK I don't think it got the point of introducing anime to new people, but its popularity is far from being restricted to MAL.
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...

Really? I see it pretty much everywhere.
Anyway, I fell for it and I think it's great. But it's definitely not a masterpiece and far from being the best anime ever as the fans claim.

No Shit, of course you wouldn't complain, since you rate SAO a 7.
I hated it at first because I was one of those people. But then I came to my senses and realised what a fucking idiot I was being. But that's irrelevant.

It's not because I like SAO that I dislike the premise of OPM. I dislike the premise because the one big joke of the show assumes that you're the kind of person who whines on the Internet about how sick and tired they are of how 'overpowered' characters are as if power levels actually mean jack shit.

Also you have to ignore the fact that in basically all of those shows (Including SAO) the only people they easily overcome are grunts who you expect them to beat anyway whereas the actually important fight scenes just stack the odds so high that power becomes irrelevant.

Okay, let's take Death Gun. You know tthe guy with the best gear in the game, but he can't even kill Kirito in a low amount of hits. Now let us compare that to Kirito that can one shot him with a beginning sword, with the power of love.
Let's look at fairy bastard, there Kirito one shots him too. Because he got admin powers.
But Kirito being OP isn't all of the problems with SAO. Let us talk about the girls, especially Liz and Silica, well at least Liz is a blacksmith and gave Kirito a swrd, but Silica is just in it, so people can have their Loli, she litterally has nothing else to contribute to the show. Reki could have shown us more about laughing coffin, instead of putting it into a flashback.

I always expected Kirito to win through some bullshit way, since that was how, he won most of the times anyway, well except Kayaba there he actually couldn't one shot him. But Kayaba forgoy why he trapped people, because Reki couldn't come up with a good reason, and instead of thinking he made a cop out.

Messing up the rules Reki builds up himself, Spriggan which is the fairy Kirito became. Can only use illusion magic, well he then becomes a boss monster, not an illusion, since he uses the same attacks as the boss monster. Oh Kirito can't aim with a gun can still hit Death Gun, when a pro sniper like Sinnon couldn't.

Mother Rosario: Okay, now Asuna has problems with her mother, I'm sure the show will solve this part in a mature way, I mean the fans hype it up as the best part and there's not much Kirito and Asuna is the main focus in it. So I will give it the benefit of the doubt, even though I don't find Asuna interesting, because she has been demoted from strong female to Kirito's waifu and then to damsel in distress and rape victim.
After watching: Kirito was in the majority of the episodes and he still helped Asuna, well I could have misunderstood what the LN readers meant. Yukki, because Reki was lazy and just used Asuna's last name. I really tried to care for her, but she bassically felt like ideal Yui, because she felt like a combination of Asuna and Kirito. But I don't like the couple, because it felt like Asuna's character gets worse by it, which I blame Reki for. Asna had the foundation to become a good character , but no Reki bassically had to make her a housewife just to please filthy otaku fantasies, bloody disgusting.
Let's not forget how Asuna gets through to her mother, she just took her once with her to the virtual world and give a speech about her grandparents and everything is fine, wow all that build up for nothing, because Reki can't write a proper drama scene.

Calibur: Everyone think this is underwhelming. I mean even the fights suck

The show has good music and animation.

I rate the show 2 years worth of semen/Asada-san!

Its a funny show, but anybody who thinks that OPM is GOAT material has got to be shitting themselves. Despite what the butthurt idiots might want you think, there ARE objective values upon which a story can be judged. OPM is a good comedy that accomplishes what it set out to do, but to say that OPM is on par with shonen like Hunter x Hunter or One Piece is beyond ludicrous. The manga simply doesn't have that level of intellectual effort put into it.
