I am more interested why is school days in this list? Funny fact, it's quite respected by more critical viewers and really hated by newcomers so idk that's a weird choice considering the point of this topic.

@Fang There is still diference between subjective and objective in art, implying otherwise raises quite a few problems tbh, there is nothing wrong to like show for subjective reasons even if it's not that good objectively tho.

I'd rather talk to someone like that than with someone with The Tatami Galaxy, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Mushishi, Texhnolyze, Rose of Versailles and Aria The Origination...

First Impression? Just someone who primary like arch heavy Shounen anime based off of Bleach and Naurto on it. But also isn't bothered by how many people have literally panned SAO, School Days, and Tokyo Ghoul - they just like what they like and couldn't care less about other's thoughts about them.

I mean not everyone likes the super niche anime that people always seem to list on their favorites.

Why do I should care about the favorite list from someone else?I don't care what kind of taste other people have.Everyone have they own taste.If I don't like any Animes of their favorites,it's nothing bad.


I will not believe that everything is controlled by fate.

I'd think of neither, if it's anime they have really enjoyed then leave it be. Everyone has their own tastes in anime and anyone criticizing or making fun of anyone's favourites in general is just childish.

I wouldn't give a fucking shit. People can favorite and like whatever they fucking want in my sincere opinion. I don't automatically/subconsciously judge someone's taste if I for some reason find myself in their profile and seeing their favorites/rated Anime.
It's more of an "Oh" thing.

"Oh, he gave X a rating of 10" "Oh, Y also has a rating of 10".
"Oh, bla bla bla bla".

Not "Lol, fucking shit taste, look at this normie cuck, mainstream noob"

Part of my thoughts on this are influenced by my opinion that taste is the most fucking irrelevant thing you can talk about to me. Unless we're talking about taste in genre, what type of genre someone likes, do they prefer Action-Packed Animu or prefer that edgy shit? No way in hell are they watching CGI Anime or can they cope with it/like it?.
That's what I'd like taste to be.

I'd first assume that they were a troll because I typically don't even seen School Days in the #1 spot.

If I'm sure they aren't a troll, I'll just assume they're relatively fresh to the medium and may find series that they'll enjoy more as time goes on, or they really love themselves some long-runners and harems.

I would exchange School Days for Mirai Nikki/Akame Ga Kill!/Elfen Lied in that list for the sake of consistency.

The first impression would be WHY would anyone have both Naruto and Shippuden in their list, and even more WHY is Shippuden over the OG. I would probably think that those are the only actual anime the one who made the list has seen because of that, or at least the only ones that he/she liked.

Most of my classmates who like anime.
Don't talk with them not because they like those shows, It's that they are unapproachable, at least by me.

I can't care less what they like, but if I'm bored and if they want to talk to me about it, I wouldn't mind, it's a nice way to kill time and I have knowledge of some of the ones in the list.

well as soon as you have Sword art online in your favorites i already don't trust your opinion and tend to shrug off their opinion. This is only excused if that person is new to the community and haven't seen many other series.

...But other than that, this list is pleb teir

TG and Naruto are both enjoyable shows, maybe they aren't the best adaptations, but they are still far away from beeing bad.

Besides that, to say mainstream generally sucks is just plain stupid.

First impression? They like battle shounen. Good for them, nothing wrong with that. It's their favorite list so they can put whatever they want. It's their taste and I'm not going to judge. Though, as others have mentioned, the inclusion of School Days seem out of place..

There's people who have watches hundreds upon hundreds of anime and still have entry level stuff on their lists, likewise there's those who haven't watched much and have lesser known anime on theirs, not gonna lie if I saw someone with those on their favourites I'd think they're a pleb with poor taste but at the end of the day they can watch what they want.

@Fang There is still diference between subjective and objective in art, implying otherwise raises quite a few problems tbh, there is nothing wrong to like show for subjective reasons even if it's not that good objectively tho.


If only art was as simple as 1+2 = 3. Of course there is objectivity in art, for eg, plot holes, but it is surely limited.

Art is mostly subjective, and is meant to be interpreted differently by each individual through there own perspective, the very fact that you think art should be looked at on a one dimensaional view, irritates me. Discussion would not even exist, if we all have the same perspective.

I can proof to you why art is not objective, all your friends on mal including @Marrone that was praising you on your statements, all rate anime differently from you, where each one of you, even if you guys have similar taste will still have different opinions on some anime than you, you know why is that? because we are unique beings, with different thoughts and perspective.

Answer me this, have you ever not have a intelligent discussion with someone where they explain why they like a series that you didn't, and even though you don't agree with him, you can at least understand the reason why he liked that series? Isn't that proof enough that art can be interpreted differently? Not only that, a person can like the same series as you, but for a completely different reason.


Art not being objective does not stop you from disliking or liking a anime, the whole purpose of all of us here, is to discuss anime with each other, and give reasons why we think this anime isn't good or vice versa.

It honestly seems like to me is that, if you guys let go of this objective none sense, your entire world will come crashing down. I know that the main reason why you guys want to believe in objectivity in art is because you guys want to feel a sense of superiority.

I'm not telling you guys to like every anime, I'm not telling any of you to change your opinion. All I'm saying is to stop using the word "objective" to try and put your unique opinion above someone else unique opinion.

Instead of using "objective" as a way of saying you are right, use your arguments and your own opinion on why you think these anime are bad.

Guess what? I too can go around spouting the word "objective" and claiming my opinion to be the truth. Anyone can do it, not just you.

I guess my first impression would be that it's probably someone who is new to anime. Most likely male, and probably in their teens. But people can like whatever they like. Everyone starts somewhere, and having a few entry level anime on a favorite's list doesn't necessarily speak for one's overall taste.

Those look like a compilation of the gateway entries for most of the anime fans that started in the mid/late 2000s, excluding Tokyo Ghoul and SAO. Just lacking some Elfen Lied in there and bingo. Nothing much to be said from the person in any case.

Lack of experience, bad taste; I don't particularly mind. If anything I'd just have very little to talk about with that person about anime, in spite of being a hobby we 2 might share from the moment we have an account in here.

Also if anyone with those favorites interacts enough with the website I'd assume they'd end up watching and liking more recent shows as well.

I don't really care what anime people have in their favorite list. They can just like whatever they want to like.

And if they happen to like something I dislike more power to them.
