No, I only recommend series that I rated 8, 9 or 10. Because for me, when I give a 6 to an anime, it means that it was just ok, not that bad but not that good too !

It depends if the person im recommending it too is looking for something specefic. If I don't like a specefic show, but the other person likes that sort of genre, I'd recommend it too them

Example.

I finish watching Gyo. I think that shit is the worst anime I have ever seen in the history of ever. My friend likes wierd shit like the stuff that goes on in the movie. I'd reccomend it too him

Maybe. Everyone has different tastes. While I rate "girls doing cute things" anime as being 6 or 5, I'm sure some people love them and would rate then 8 or so. Most anime I watch are rated 6/10 anyway, so I have to recommend SOME of them, at least.

If I think the person I'm recommending it to would be interested in it, then why not? I have this friend here who likes guns and I recommended her some Survival game anime that I scored 5,6 and 7 lol. I think she'd love it cause guns and all the other factors lol.

No, I usually recommend stuff that I rate an 8 or above.
For me that means I enjoyed it.

Yes, of course. A 6 is pretty good Everything 5+ has good quality's.
I rated KnB season 2 a 5/10 still recommend it to people.

6 is still "Fine", not bad.

Of course I would, but recommendations by ratings are worthless anyway, what is good/bad for me might not be the same for you.

Depends. What I think is bad or not enjoyable might be the exact opposite to someone else.

Generally I don't go around recommending them though.

I guess I sort of could.

But generally I drop anime that I think I'd rate a 6 since I'd rather look for even better stuff.

A 24 ep anime that I'd rate a 6 (e.g Darker Than Black) is probably going to be subject to my hatred too. Even though it was enjoyable.

It's not something I would actively recommend probably but I wouldn't tell people to stay away from it either. A 6 would mean I thought it was fine, but you should still be able to find something better to spend the same amount of time on without too much problem so it's not worth putting on the top of your PTW

If the things from the show are things that the other person likes, and there's nothing better to rec, yeah, would do.
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; What is essential is invisible to the eye.

It depends on what their taste is and what anime it is. I don't consider 6 to be a bad rating so I have recommended 6s in the past.

I don't recommend unless I know who I'm recommending to in which case I could recommend a 3. I specifically don't recommend my favourite anime to most people and my initial interest in that anime came from a friend with the EXACT opposite taste giving it a 1

To me, 6s are the hardest to recommend (aside from superior sequel seasons to bad/mediocre shows) due to them not having much for me to say to get someone sold on them aside from premise, but nothing to make me recommend them to masochists, avid flaw finders, or anyone wanting something so bad it's hilarious.

Yup. I find many action shows quite repetitive and not memorable so sometimes 6 is how I am going to rate them, but if someone likes action shows maybe they're able to find something in it that I wasn't.

Or course, I've recommended things I've rated as low as 3 and would recommend lower, it depends on the person. I hated One Piece for example, but many love it, and after talking to the people who do and finding out why, I now know when I'd recommend it. It depends on their taste.

A rating shouldn't matter when recommending something. What should matter is who you're recommending it to, and what their preferences are. Something I dislike, someone else might love.

I'd recommend anime with 6: I enjoyed most anime with that score. They're already good-enjoyable for me while anime with higher score have better characters, development, story etc. I even recommend anime which I rated lower than 6 if I know that certain person has different taste than mine.

Well, for me a 6 is that show that was only OK. Had some redeeming qualities and I considered "worth the watch". But I wouldn't recommend a 6 rated show myself, like, if someone asked for good mecha shows for instance, I wouldn't recommend a 6, but a 7 or, more likely, the 8-10s. BUUUUT if someone asked "should I give X show a try" and X = 6 for me, I would say, "it wasn't the best, but you might like it better than me". So yea, speaking in a generic way I wouldn't recommend a 6, but if someone asked especifically about it, I probably would say to give it a shot.

Sure, why not? Maybe I wouldn't recommend it as heartily as an 8, but since a six for me still means it's above average, with a greater number of positives than negatives, then I wouldn't consider it a waste of time to watch. But I'd probably want to tailor it a bit more to the personal tastes of the person I'm recommending to.
I'd have a very hard time finding a reason to recommend a 5, on the other hand.
