Even OPM never got to #5.
OPM never got that far, because many haters dowvoted it (butthurt gintama fans), this show appeals to a larger audience.

Mad cause Gintama is better than OPM?

I'm not salty cause it outranked everything in my favorites a long time ago, but how do people think a shitty time travel plot with characters that act way more deep then they actually fucking are and forced drama everywhere is in any shape or form good?

God, the way the English anime fandom circlejerks around hype so hard is just hilarious. I think the show is good entertainment but there's no way it's going to tie everything left open in a neat little bow in the last 4 episodes.

I mean jeez, only 8 episodes of this series currently exist and it's skyrocketed past proven classics. Just loving it, let's hope it reaches #1.


The Japanese community has it's share of problems too but they never seem to do this to quite the same extent. Really though it's only the English (and I use the designation loosely as most people seem like they can barely read and write in the language) online fandom and really then even only MAL and Crunchyroll as far as I've been able to see. Crunchyroll even has the same problem of hundreds of reviews for shows that barely seem to care about spelling and coherency and feel more like some random dude blogging about how hyped up such and such got him.

I'm pretty sure I remember the prologue to Fate/Stay Hype being temporarily #1 here but it only lasted a couple of days. Maybe I'm thinking of some other Aniplex produced hype show though (One constant is it's them as the producer 95% of the time some show gets ridiculously hyped through the roof after barely being on the air for a month or two), they all start blending together after a while when they're all apparently the greatest thing ever conceived by genius writers and animators with their beautifully beautiful flawless work.

Anyway one of the other extremely weird things about this place is I swear almost everybody seems to have the exact same list of favorite genres, people, shows and overall tastes. I don't think I've ever seen a community come off as more homogenized and curiously samey from person to person and one day I'll have to get to the bottom of what is up with that exactly.


I swear u shitting on this show 24/24. In each thread you are in I only see you bashing. So why don't you gently fuck off if you don't like it?

Honestly I don't get why this is getting so much shit foe being number 5 but it's all fine and dandy for the new Gintama show is number two, not hating on Gintama as since it's so highly rated, it's number two for a reason, can't people just like what they like without everyone making a big deal about it being overrated.

Gintama has a way lesser fanbase/community activity. The more people actively watching a show = the more people that'll shit on an anime and or talk about how bad it is.

There are 168,000 users watching this. 48,000 of them can't help but give out 10/10's when they enjoy a show, and that's understandable, but there are still 3 times more people that haven't rated this at all. It looks like the score will be majorly influenced by how it ends.

All in all, I'm just hoping it'll permanently be above Clannad.

It will be higher than Clannad, but not higher than Clannad After Story. I think that's the most predictable outcome though.

The anime is making Detective Conan one of the greatest anime ever. It's really struggling to set up the core plot even from the start. Like a lot of recently adapted anime, it is rushed.

If an episode sets up an event, that event should be fun explored. Kayo's death isn't even explained or why she was killed (or why her mother is abusing her to begin). I suppose it will be the same for the killer unless we have a confession in the end (which probably wouldn't happen).

The most I would rate this would be 7.

This anime could have been a masterpiece if it had stick to reality than this time traveling stuff. Maybe in the ending, we'll see Satoru before he was being hanged coming to his sense, showing us that he was just imagining everything from the start (He become convicted to death over her mother's death) and realizing that he can't do anything and that life is very unfair and unjust. After we saw him hanged, we realize that his conclusions are actually wrong and based on his own opinions. That the crimes were unrelated and the culprit he was looking for simply doesn't exist. (Based on the facts, Kayo's could actually be explained very easily even without the supposed serial killer). That would be a nice reality check for people.

to be fair anime fans always loved forced drama that is why clannad and ano hana are so highly rated
and i also despite that it has a higher rating than hxh the best long running shonen ever created

Except it just proves all the more that none of that stuff matters to modern anime fans as long as it has a cute girl and some tragedyporn storyline surrounding her. That's how you make an instant masterpiece and this show is far from the first that has proven that that's all that matters anymore.

I expect people to forget about it a month after it ends until it comes time to give out those arbitrary year end "awards" to the usual same old suspects yet again at which point it'll re-enter the picture with the other mediocre seasonal hype shows that came out in the other 2016 seasons, probably all by a lot of the same producers featuring a lot of the same old people.

Its almost like a baby, its nice to see an anime you are really liking to make it up in ratings to say the top 10!

I feel like it may be worth of being in the top 10. It will NOT make it into the top 3 though. Its really great, but I saw a comment saying that based on the pacing in order to cover the rest of the manga it will have to be rushed which may lead to this shows downfall.

I think in order to secure its spot in the top 10 it will have to:
1. Explain why Kayo is being abused by her mother
2. A solid ending (People are saying at its current pace it will have a rushed ending soo....)
3. Have a decent explanation of Satorus power.

I am no critique, but I feel if these are addressed most people will be satisfied with the anime averaging around a 9.0

I think people want that all anime are shit,when an anime just decent comes here that parts the shit-storm:"Ehhh but it's overrated!!!...the plot is forced,there isn't action,it's predictable,this anime is only hype,the hero doesn't go the toilet with regolarity.

Anyway if some rules are unexplained and just you can time-travel like that, wouldn't that create inconsistenties? If ppl found plotholes in s;g time travel, would they have rated it ten?

1. Revival can be used only to prevent harm from happening to characters other than user.



2. Revival follows ontological inertia to certain extent, so even when past is changed, events coincidental to the previous timeline will still happen, even if earlier participant is not here.



3. Revival is repeated until Satoru saves the person in danger (what was kinda neglected in anime).

4. When Satoru cannot rescue someone from a fatal encounter, he is sent back even further to the point, when he can protect him/her.

I think, that the second revival happened because Satoru noticed the killer and he knew, that there will be further murders, which he wont be able to prevent from prison.

What's with the sudden influx of people with less than 10 posts all calling out regular users for being butthurt and trolling like they own the joint? Literally where did all these people come from all of a sudden and what makes them feel so important and self-righteous to act like they've been here forever and know exactly what's going on? Looks really bloody suspicious, like somebody even alt accounting or something. Like there's definitely something out of the ordinary going on with this show around these parts.

Anyway this place is just too fucked regardless. I really need to get out for real at this rate cause it's just not helping matters trying to rationalize or argue with any of these people around the anime community anymore who are just so petty, self-absorbed and take everything for granted. I'll probably even start enjoying anime again if I get away from it's ridiculously nasty fanbase for a significant amount of time cause right now it's literally impossible to enjoy it fully while having any sort of contact with it's fanbase that makes everything a political fanboy hype affair and are just insufferably obnoxious to the point where they suck the fun out of anything by sheer proximity. It's making my personality worse too being engaged in it.

And that goes for "fanboys", "haters", "trolls", whatever cause there's clearly no people that have much of anything in common with me anymore in the online community. Just officially tired of it all lol, like it really should be funner and enhance the enjoyment of something or not but it's the opposite with all this my anime is hyper and better than your anime seasonal BS and it's just clear it's never going to get any better again at this rate. I've kind of realized that while I've had my ups and downs with the anime community over the years that especially this decade interacting in it has not improved my appreciation of the hobby even one iota and literally only detracted from it more and more as time goes on even with limited contact. Honestly I'd suggest to anybody else interested in anime to just leave the online community too if they want to enjoy it more or even just get away from the bullshit that politicizes and compartmentalizes something that should just be a fun pass time, not an identity. Not making any guarantees it helps, but if others feel the same way at this rate I think there's everything to gain and nothing to lose the way it is nowadays, how ridiculous everyone acts now, and how it's frankly been sucking me down the same hole of misery and annoyance probably for several years now.

I'll probably even start enjoying anime again if I get away from it's ridiculously nasty fanbase for a significant amount of time cause right now it's literally impossible to enjoy it fully while having any sort of contact with it's fanbase that makes everything a political fanboy hype affair and are just insufferably obnoxious to the point where they suck the fun out of anything by sheer proximity. It's making my personality worse too being engaged in it.

And that goes for "fanboys", "haters", "trolls", whatever cause there's clearly no people that have much of anything in common with me anymore in the online community. Just officially tired of it all lol, like it really should be funner and enhance the enjoyment of something or not but it's the opposite with all this my anime is hyper and better than your anime seasonal BS and it's just clear it's never going to get any better again at this rate. I've kind of realized that while I've had my ups and downs with the anime community over the years that especially this decade interacting in it has not improved my appreciation of the hobby even one iota and literally only detracted from it more and more as time goes on even with limited contact. Honestly I'd suggest to anybody else interested in anime to just leave the online community too if they want to enjoy it more or even just get away from the bullshit that politicizes and compartmentalizes something that should just be a fun pass time, not an identity. Not making any guarantees it helps, but if others feel the same way at this rate I think there's everything to gain and nothing to lose the way it is nowadays, how ridiculous everyone acts now, and how it's frankly been sucking me down the same hole of misery and annoyance probably for several years now.

Leaving this here as it pretty much says it all.


I found that to be my feeling towards the online anime presence pretty quickly after I got into this hobby. Like you said, the fandom doesn't do anything to enhance my experience one bit. I actually have to give an effort into making it so I don't let all the nonsense get to me.

But, at the end of the day, most of the vocal people are the problem. Most people with some decency and common sense just either never post anything at all or ignore the anime community altogether. It's that way in any form of entertainment or media. The loud vocal ones are going to control the image.

It's been a rough battle of sorts being into this hobby. I love the actual content, but I can never share my enjoyment properly because it always turns into a mess because of the anime community. I really don't give a shit about appearances and stuff irl, but it's gotten to the point where I try to keep this hobby really low-key because having someone think you act like the complete morons in this fandom online, can actually really make a relationship suffer.

I don't post much here, or anywhere. I only do when I'm bored and feel I can laugh about all the nonsense instead of let it gnaw at me. I've been to many a place on the inter webs trying to find a good place to share my interest in this medium, but all have pretty much failed and been a similar experience. MAL, CR, ANN, reddit aka the liberal mosh pit, 4chan aka the scumbag mosh pit where people's vocabulary consists of the words 'autism, faggot, and weaboo'.

It makes me sad, too, that a lot of these people are actual adults. I'll give you a pass if you're 17 or younger, because I certainly had an edgy idiotic phase that lasted a few months around that age. But, I find it kind of pathetic for adults to be acting this way. I really just have to trick myself into thinking that all these people who act that way in this fandom are just young teenagers. I don't have an explanation if you are an adult.

I hope not, people are just giving this anime way too much credit than it needs.

nah, it wont after the final chapter coming out and basically spoiled in many manga sites...

fanbase is practically 50/50 on the ending, some of the salty will give it 1/10, me personally the manga is 6/10 because of poor characterization, the anime i don't know, i'll see where the pacing goes

Actually, it was S;G, Ginga, and Clannad fanboys. (This went Vise versa as well.)

Lololol
Yeah, I'm Clannad and Key in general big fan, I love Steins;Gate too, but you really think that me, or someone else rated OPM low because I didn't want it on top list?
You made my day, or rather night, it's 1:47am here. Seriously.
I rated OPM low, because it was ridiculously not funny and repetitive like nothing else. I was bored as hell and it took me eternity to finish it.

I don't get it how can you OPM consider boring and repetetive and at the same time you like one of most boring girl ever - Onodera.

It's pretty hilarious to re-read the first pages where everyone was saying it would never make it to the top ten.

Look at its ranking now! Haha
(It would definitely be entertaining to see MAL's reaction if it went any higher)
