The fact that its claymation makes me question how it even got an entry on MAL. To me, that's the equivalent of having 'Chicken Run' or 'Wallace & Gromit' as entries on here. It doesn't make sense to me. Claymation =/= Anime

1) It's CG
2) That's irrelevant; anime is animation produced in Japan (with some work from Korea and China also included on MAL). https://myanimelist.net/anime/29949/Nami is stop motion filmed using a naked woman and a bunch of dead fish.

People don't think MAL be like it is, but it do.

It's nice to see Pingu with better score than Madoka and K-On! except for popularity.

Sorry, CG Claymation you're right. And yes I've seen Nami, another head-scratcher I don't understand. But it at least has a score more deserving, where as we have Pingu here ranked as the 36th best all-time 'anime'. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If SoraYori deserves a top 100 spot, Pingu does too.
If that were the case, then Pingu would deserve a top 2 place, because Sora Yori does too.

This should be removed from the database. Or at least from the ranked list.

Why exactly? It's a Japanese anime that airs on Japanese television.

Because it has a terminal troll infection. It's pointless to reset it's ratings so it must be taken out of the ranked list however it is possible.

p.s. deciding what to watch based on MAL scores is for losers



MAL ratings should be taken with a grain of salt.

SoraYori had a missed opportunity too show a penguin say NOOT NOOT when it was airing. Not enough Penguin screen time, and didn't show the Sea lion that is friends with Pingu.

I'm just glad that the show is finished. Now hopefully we'll have to wait another few years before there comes a sequel.

Top 10 anime mysteries, I always assumed that it's a sister, but then I saw people call it brother and now I'm clueless.

I just watched it and I wholeheartedly agree with the ranking it got. Any problem?

So what if we actually genuinely liked the show?

Pingu deserves all the praise it gets.
Never ignore a person who loves you, cares for you, and misses you. Because one day, you might wake up from your sleep and realize that you lost the moon while counting the stars.

It's far better than Sora Yori. I'm not joking.
And really, 12% voted this 1/10? That's literally trolling. This is unacceptable.

I've watched countless times the original series when I was young and I find this new series disappointing, it does not captures the true soul of the original.

Trolling? Ehh everyone just finds Pingu hilarious. And the others simply don't. There's either people who think its funny and the people who don't. I guess there's no middle grounds.
