Because everyone has different tastes.

That's all really. I can't think of anything else.
Or maybe they are normies who don't know what good anime is.

None, because everyone has different tastes. Just because you really like this one show doesn't mean every single person on this planet should like it the way you like it too.

Hm... I would have to say Excel Saga and the Haruhi specials. I never see any love for either, and they're rated poorly, compared to other shows, but I think they rank above FLCL for pure random comedy. They're not too well known, though, so I bet that when people introduce them to another person, that person doesn't exactly know what they're getting into and rates it badly.

I don't know, really. Even with some shows I consider to be underrated, I can understand their flaws and where the haters come from. Like, I could say Aku no Hana because the first episode was almost unanimously bashed when it came out, but it has become a love-it-or-hate-it kind of show by now and even I had my share of problems with the obvious pretentiousness of its director and the way he handled some of the source material's most tense moments.

Dennou Coil or Children's Circle, most underrated anime out there and one of the best, in my humble opinion.

Anyways, giving Nichijou a low score is just wrong and you should feel bad if you do it.

None, even if my favorite were to be rated a 1 and it clearly was by some people, I do not care, it is my experience with my shows that matters to me alone.

Also I rated angel beats 5/10 (to be presise 3/5 since it is kinda a 5 star rating system)

Classicaloid, I only watched 1 ep and it was pretty harmless in my opinion, but ever since it started airing it got a pretty low score, I'll never get the rating for this anime, it isn't THAT bad

School Days easy. Not every anime needs a happy ending, a dark ending can be just as artistic. Plus it changed it up and showed us the dark side of relationships, and even if my girl Sekai didn't win, it showed us how fuckboys need to be put in their place.

Acca 13-ku doesn't have that bad of an overall score but a lot of people rate it low because they don't like the slow pacing. But it's actually very good if you like political conspiracies and world building.

The newer anime Royal Tutor Kaine has a score on the low side but I actually really enjoyed the humor.

I know a lot of people who rate Romeo x Juliet lower than a 7 due to the fact that it is nothing like the book. If you judge the anime as a separate entity, then it's actually a pretty good show.

Less than 7 is negative? No wonder why people think that there aren't any good anime anymore...

I guess the anime classics like Death Note and Rurounin Kenshin deserve a high score.

I'm not sure though what score is considered negative generally, probably is it around < 6?

Obviously shows I liked the most, duh. And 6 isn't a negative score.

But in all seriousness, I think that many people misunderstand SnK.

One anime people take too seriously is Hatsukoi Monster, ha.
It was never meant to be a good romance, just a bad comedy. Which is why I love it. It's just so ridiculous.

I don't think comedy animes (as long as they are not dramedies) don't deserve bad ratings, since they are just there for you to laugh, enjoy, etc. Popcorn anime. With that said, I also don't think that comedy animes deserve high praising, high ratings, etc.

Binbou Shimai Monogatari, Nurse Angel Ririka, and Happy Happy Clover are three anime that have mean scores below 7 and I personally think deserve higher. Obviously there aren't any anime that no one is allowed to rate below 7 because that simply wouldn't make sense. That would just make 7 be equal to 1 with those titles.

Every anime needs to have both +ve and -ve ratings as it brings out all it's strong points and weak points.But seriously though, why is Serial Experiments lain rated 7.99????It deserves to be in the top 50 easily.Even i was confused but after reading it's complete explanation, i was truly fascinated. I'm sure majority of the people didn't even bother to understand the show.

I agree with those who said that 6 and 5aren't bad scores, it's even added next to the score that they mean average and fine....

Also there isn't an anime which doesn't deserve a negative rating, you can always have a good reason to dislike something.

My picks for stuff that I cant see people reasonably rating lower than 7 would be:
- Princesss Mononoke, Spirited Away and probably many other Ghibli movies
- Mushishi
- FMA:B
- RK: Trust and Betrayal
- Berserk
- Cowboy Bebop
- im probably being retarded and listing favorites
- Rakugo
- Baccano
- I want Samurai Champloo to be on this list
- Gankutsuou
- Ghost in the Shell
- Hunter x Hunter
- Redline
- ah fuck it the list lost all the relevance it may have had
- Kiss x Sis
- Keijo


Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself.

That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes!

It doesn't matter much to me on a specific series level, but there are times when I feel people can get really stupid and reactionary about why they rate something low and that can annoy me, much moreso than the inverse. That's usually just more because of presentation than the actual thought, though, since angry hyperbole almost never feels genuine and designed for the sake of getting attention by acting like an angry asshole. It's usually easy to tell when they're being shitposty with that too, though, and that doesn't bother me much. Only when it feels like they're trying to pass that off as something everybody should listen to and respect does it annoy me, but I guess having people who act like that is still preferable to opposite of making pleasantries mandatory, so meh, all of that is still irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

But rambling aside, from a pure rating standpoint it doesn't matter to me at all and from an opinion standpoint it only matters if it's something that can actually apply to me and what I care about, and not somebody just trying to shove their priorities and standards down my throat.

Gintama. People who don't like this show have no sense of humor.
If you give Mushishi less than a 7, you're probably stuck in Shounen or Harem land.
Serial Experiments Lain should easily be in the top 20. I guess most people who watched it don't know how to use their mind. It's not supposed to be "easy" to understand.

I would definitely give mushishi a technical score close to 10/10, however I do think that it's definitely an anime which people can give a lower score only due to how it has a style of storytelling and content that doesn't and isn't meant to appeal to everyone. In my opinion it's almost a wonder that it keeps such a high rating on MAL.

While this isn't even close to true, as there are animes much worse than SAO - I want to make a point that coincides with my above statement regarding Mushishi.
I would give SAO a very low technical score due to a wide variety of reasons, but I definitely see how and why it is highly rated in comparison to what its content is worth - Unlike Mushishi, SAO has storytelling that does and is meant to appeal to as many viewers as possible, which is its main strength. It's a great watch for younger as well as new watchers, but will reveal its flaws instantly if you watch it twice.
As with Mushishi I can clearly see how people can give it a lower score than a technical review would give it, but with SAO I can see even clearer how people can give it a higher score (or a much lower score) than a technical review would give it.

Yeah those people are fucking annoying

To those who say less than 5 and 6 ratings aren't negative: Yes, they really are
Saying an anime is "fine" or "average" is practically negative. Average and fine are equivalent to saying "meh i didn't really enjoy it that much"

And those who say none
I'm asking for your biased opinions, not bullshit.
