| 7 is by no means a bad score so I don't know what your talking about OP. Also why does it matter what other people score shows, its their opinion. |

| because people didn't like his movies as much as other ones, I guess. 7 still means good either way, and i haven't really watched much ghibli myself, so i can't tell. |
| No idea at all. I think the man is a genius. He is my in my top 5 of all time animation creators and easily my favorite guy in the anime business. I should make an effort to look up the names of these guys that make the shows that I love so much. anyway dude is awesome and is as good as Chuck Jones and Danny Antonucci. |

| It's because most people nowadays don't understand classic animation and are addicted to pointy angles, moeblobs, or oppai shenanigans. |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| I'm not sure what you mean. I'm pretty sure Ponyo is Miyazaki's only feature length film to have a mean score lower than 8.00 on MAL. Spirited Away is also in the top 50, and is the third highest rated movie on MAL. |

| I don't know which score system are you using but according to MAL 7 means good. |

 If you have the time to make a thread commenting about their ratings you should have the time to read their reviews. But in any case... many of Hayao Miyazaki movies are in the top animes. And Hayao Miyazaki has 26060 favorites, so I don't get why you're asking "Why is Hayao Miyazaki always downvoted?" as if he is being underrated. |

| Downvoted? Heh.. 7 is 2 points above the rating called average ( 5) so why would that be Downvoted?? ( not that anyone uses mal scales anyway) Anyways, "Hayao Miyazaki was a mistake!" - Anime |
 |
| probably because that man is the original anime elitist lol |
   |
| Maybe out of spite that he hates or community? |

 |
Well I don't like him because of this.... ok now joking aside I was unaware his movies were down voted but if they really are isn't it because of this meme?  |
 |
| Mostly it's because the movies aren't as good. When it comes to his movies, they are never compared to all other movies but to all of his best movies, which are usually masterpieces, so the other ones do tend to get a little bit underrated, but it's not by much. |

| Almost every Miyazaki film is over 8 imo, tho some are better than others (Kiki, nausicaa, wind, spirited, porco rosso). |

| My guess will have to be that Princess Mononoke holds two key points that the rest of his other films lack. (or at least doesn't reach the same scale as Mononoke) - Popularity - More exciting story Spirited away and Howl's Moving Castle may have just as much if not more popularity, but they have a more family friendly theme which ultimately results in a less impactful journey and ending compared to Princess Mononoke while Nausicaa which may have an equally impactful ending, simply is too old for the modern anime view's to tolerate. |
 |
| 88% of people who have rated Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi have given it a score of 8 or higher, what are you talking about? |
 |
| because surprise... people have different opinion.. (i have no right to judge it since i don't really like movies in general) |
 "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." |
| Still trying to understand the point of this discussion. The oldest ones are generally ignored by the "10/10 BEST ANIME EVER" crowd who overrates everything that gets released, so that's a factor. Maybe there's also the fact that most of his movies are quite similar and target an audience too broad to really hit the nail on the head for anyone. |

 You're never too old to watch anime. If I ever stop watching anime, check my pulse I'm likely dead. I wake up with coffee & anime, I go to sleep with coffee & anime. Sorry if my sarcasm is bad, it's not my first language. |
| He has set the bar so high and has so much hype for his work. Had a Miyazaki film just landed out of nowhere and into my blu-ray player (which would beat the crap outta Crunchy Roll) and I watched it with no preconceptions or knowledge of what it was or what it was about or even that he was involved, odds are I would go 8+ in my rating. But when a lot of my Anime friends tell me "You gotta see this! You gotta see this! It's the best thing since the water slides, ice cream, ribs, and fan service!" I'm gonna expect a lot. And I'll probably say it was just good, not great,. i.e. a 7 rating. And I have to admit, it's one of the reasons I have avoided most of his films because, like cookies fresh outta the oven, they're still too hot to touch. When they cool down, I'll watch them. Now I'm gonna go check for a mystery disc in my blu-ray player. |

ExpertoCrede said: Clebardman said: >Whines about people's scores >Has set his list to private I smell a trolling attempt here. I have a right to privacy, anyway. Also, I'm not whining. I'm just wondering because I find it surprising how people tend to score his movies lower than an 8 or 9. I always found him to be a nice guy with amazing concepts but I am surprised to see how some people rate him with a 7, seeming him average. Also, if I were trolling, i would be too busy contemplating how people who rate him with that specified rating have "shit taste." Everyone has their own taste and I respect them for it, so before you judge someone by saying something simple, think twice about it. Exeunt. Ummm, 7 is seeing as average? 7 is a GOOD score. |
 |
| Cause some of his stuff is overrated? |
| Miyazaki, as great as he is, is a very inconsistent man. He's got some 10s (Castle of Cagliostro, Castle in the Sky), and he's got some 5s (Ponyo). Luckily, the good far outweighs the painfully mediocre. |
 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |
You don't have a spare 2 minutes to read a review but you had time to create this thread and respond to comments? |
 |
| Not everyone likes his films that much. I mean, this is kinda common sense, but everyone has different tastes in anime (and well, any media), and Miyazaki films are not an exception. IMO, Kiki's Delivery Service would be a greater film if it focused more on just Kiki's life instead of bringing that forced "romantic" plot with that annoying guy. Though I have to say I respect him a lot for his really good treatment on female characters. |

Luckily, the good far outweighs the painfully mediocre. If you have a long career like Miyazaki i think it's normal to have some mediocre works. Imho his masterpiece is Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind manga. |
|
| Because he said that anime was a mistake. |
 |
| are we considering 7 a bad score? and the most universally praised by critics anime director is being dwonvoted now? |
| I have no idea what you're on about, Miyazaki easily has the biggest circle-jerk in the anime community and all of his movies besides Ponyo have a mean score above 8/10 (hell Ponyo has 7.93 so it's pretty much there too). I also fail to see how a 7 is "downvoting" someone since it literally means good. |
| '7' is not a bad score, not at all. 5 or lower is a bad score. ...Unless you are one of those people who only use a 4 or 5 point rating system. |
