| Well, everyone's got their own opinions. If you don't like the fact that Gintama is currently #1, don't let that get to you. You're just getting worked up over nothing and it's not like by getting angry or arguing with pro-Gintama peeps is gonna change anything (except maybe increase your post count). |

| Oh I just noticed Gintama in 1st place. It's not April yet though... |
 |
| everyone raging just dont know how MAL scoring goes since changes happen drastically when an anime's number of episodes is set. Gintama's scores have been pretty much the same the whole time...it was just now that the scores were calculated different and gave us what we have now. btw more people need to watch Aria ;__; |

I don't think "popularity" is the word you are looking for. LoGH and Aria aren't as well-known, but they're so well-liked that they make the list anyway. |
| last week, i finally picked up (and finished twice) Sleeping with Hinako since I noticed how long it has been the top sleeping anime in MAL, but wtf, theres not anime better than Sleeping with Hinako, did someone spam account and made Gintama No.1 or something? Sleeping with Hinako is so obviously the No.1 |

I don't consider being well-known and well-liked the same thing because they can often be mutually exclusive. I consider something that's popular to be well-known but not necessarily well-liked. I mean, if only 50 people had seen something but all rated it 10 and it became #1 as a result, which you consider that popular? Similarly, if the top 10 list really does show popularity, why is Bleach not anywhere near it when it clearly has more viewers than almost anything else? |

leungclj said: Code Geass R2 - watched by 68553 ppl, 49663 ppl scored. 4th place Gintama - watched by 26029 ppl, 6857 ppl scored. 1st place still dont sound right to me tbh, I dont mind not seeing Clannad in the first place, since CG R2, TTGL and CLANNAD are all my top anime, but Gintama No.1.... bug? Why don't you actually go and watch Gintama before assuming its worthless. Baka_xD said: @technominator, i respect your opinion, but i dont like when people judge the hole series based on 8 EPISODES.

I don't think "popularity" is the word you are looking for. Now, repeat this for as long as necessary until you stop caring about the ratings. People should be doing this, though, at least to a certain extent. Looking at all the posts in this topic and the other one tell me a lot of people need this advice. it is true cause if u think about it, popularity means more people and usually more people watch generic long series shit like naruto bleach onepiece, (glad theyre not anywhere near top) most anime watchers around me havnt even seen any real shit and therefore around my school bleach and naruto is win, everything else is crap. |

You stupid noob didn't even watch One Piece. But naruto pretty much as dumb as clannad and kannon and bleach althogether ... none of those should be near the top. |

I've never seen Clannad but didn't think its fans were this pathetic. |

cyx77 said: Another person who hasn't read the thread fully. For those who don't understand why this happened, alot of people believe rating a show before finishing it is a bad move. At the end of a show may emotionally affect someone whose a big fan, especially someone who has watched a long anime such as gintama. Many people will up their ratings when a show finishes, likely overtime the rating will fall, it's just at this point all the huge fans of the series massively 10 starred the show at the same time. Once the hype dies, many people will bring the series down again to a more realistic level. What you are saying is valid, and is the reason Gintama rose from 9.09 to 9.10, but not from 8.46 to 9.09. It went up by .63 because MAL's rating system excludes people who have seen less than 1/5 of the series. For Gintama, thats 38-39 eps, and almost half of all ratings for the series (don't ask why more than half the ratings come from people who have seen less than 39 eps...). These 5000 odd votes were counted when the series had no set episode count, but are not anymore, raising the rating. Also, Gintama doesn't really start getting to the "Masterpiece" level until it changes from being mostly episodic to often being small arc-based, which also happens to be around episode 39. And yes, the rating will fall over time. But only because of trolls. |

Zell182 said: lol @ rating drama Yeah. But I do believe that people who haven't seen Gintama yet but have seen [Clannad/TTGL/CG 2/whatever] really can't have a say on this. It's not like you've seen Gintama to know and understand why it got such a high score upon finishing. |
| My brain: Yorozuya Gin-chan -> Yozakura Quartet = Yorozuya Quartet (this is how much Gintama has affected me). |

Look at it this way - suppose there was someone who everyone knew, but hated. Would you consider that person popular? Not at all - you'd say they were unpopular, even. The same thing goes for anime. Bleach isn't as popular as you'd think because a lot of people on MAL don't care for it, even though a ton of people have seen it. |

| I was so shocked when I saw this anime was #1... Clannad AS was the perfectly realistic-artful-emotional anime that touched many hearts. But suddenly this show. a Shounen/Parody/Comedy anime to b #1 is definitely "what!??!" popularity wise i'm sure it'll win but i really can't see it. |

Excuse me, but how can you judge what is better if you haven't even seen Gintama? Maybe it's not just a Shounen/Parody/Comedy anime? If you actually gave it a chance you'd see it's a unique show (with a lot of deep emotional moments too) and it deserves a 10, and believe me I don't hand out 10s freely. I haven't seen Clannad since it's not my type of genre, but I certainly won't go bash it just because ppl like it enough to rate it high. And imo there are a lot of "realistic-artful-emotional" anime out there, Gintama there is only one. Until next week I hope ^^ |

| Well, it all comes down to mods banning multiple accounts (including the main one). Static IP's only though. Some people are too stupid to use proxy so there should be some sad faces at the end of the day. It's important to remember that such drama happens whenever there are shuffles in the top 5. The last time it happened, it was LotGH I think. |

Well , there's some banning going on ( there's a topic somewhere where you can report them) but I don't know if they ever banned a main account (of the person creating those multiple). If not, they should consider it. |
