| After watching 6 top 200 animes consecutively I do not feel like watching high rated animes. What should I do? |
| If you try to find out who or what I am all that's waiting for you is despair |
| I usually watch 8+, so around top 600. But really just watch what seems interesting to you. Also watch airing anime. |
 I don't believe in the Devil. You should. He believes in you. |
| Watch non top 200 anime or go outside? I dunno, mate. Seems like a simple problem to solve ;D |
   |
| Watch anime with a score below 7 then. Surely there are anime that you may enjoy. |
| Atm i only read manga, and there are barely any low rated manga, so I pretty much only read highly rated ones. |
| It's a self-answering question. You go and pick up something that is "scored" under 7 and give it a spin. Then you decide for yourself whether you want to continue watching six of those type of anime consecutively. |
 Truly a Divine Comedy  |
| Hard to tell, once something sparks my interest I rarely take score into account. |
 |
| After watching Kemono Friends 2 and Kemurikusa from this season I don't care about scores at all. I don't know why in the past I avoided most <7 shows but if there's something that grabbed your interest just watch it |

I watched the following (not in any order): 1. AOT s3 2. Mushishi 3. Bunny Girl Senpai 4. Mononoke 5. NGNL Zero 6. Owarimonogatari 2nd Season I cant pull myself to watch Cowboy beppop, Rainbow, Nichijou and I dont watch anime series with more than 26 episodes or R+. |

| There aren't many high rated ones left for me that interest me except the newest hype seasonals. So it's less a question of feeling like it and more about not having much of a choice. If I want to watch a non-seasonal, it's probably gonna have to be something with a low-ish score. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Hm, I don't really look at rates, if something seems interesting it goes to my plan to watch and I will watch it eventually, even if it has a low rate XD |
 |
| i only check the show's rating after finishing it to see if i agree with it bc if i see it beforehand i get........expectations |

It's similar to Re:Zero I think. Well I do have plans of watching it but I'm waiting for an eng dub version |

| Ideally I would rather avoid low-rated anime, but considering that there are window-lickers out there who gave scores less than 10 to Fantastic Children and Now and Then Here and There means that the scores don't matter. |
 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." |
| I'm more likely to watch anime with high amount of members. When you realize that the anime scores are made by mal users and mal users have bad taste so you stop care about rated the amout of members never lies to you, the score does. |

| Well my PTW is filled with low rated anime that I'm gonna watch. So I frequently watch low rated anime to get some variety. Most of them turn out to be pretty good. |
 |
| i dont usually check rating before watching.. |
 |
| every once in a while i like to venture out and watch the worst shit i can find. my current biggest success was makura no danshi which managed to be so bad it wasn't even funny anymore. |

| There are some really good anime out there that aren't rated too high. If it has less than 30k members than anything rated over 6.3 is usually fine. It depends on your taste, though. Anime rated under 5.6 are pretty much always terrible and only enjoyable ironically. Two of my favourites are rated around 7.5 which isn't super high, although MAL's average is actually 6.8 which is always something to consider. If it's in the top 300 most popular and rated below 6.8 don't expect it to be good. |
  |
| Many times I find the lower rated shows to be more enjoyable than many of the highly rated and regarded shows. Popular opinion is mostly garbage when it comes to indicating quality. |

| MAL Scores have absolutely nothing to do with how I choose anime in the first place. I read plot descriptions and watch trailers, you should do that. |

| People watch things based on score? Just watch things based on whether they sound interesting or not. |
 |
| I will watch. Literally. Anything. Sometimes I even do it via putting my plan to watch list in a randomizer and see what pops up. I firmly believe every single show that is bad has at least one thing good about it, furthermore the scores on MAL do not inherently beget quality. I can name plenty of shows that had a low score but I liked them anyway. Art and rating it based off something as streamlined as numbers is like water and oil, it's all up to how you perceive the work. Don't let that control what you watch. |

| … The answer to your problem is simple yet revolutionary. comedy school harem slice of lifes certainly will never fail you! The "Ecchi" tag is a bonus! I recommend To Love Ru |
| People like different things, so there is no anime which scores reaches 10 and 1. Instead of scores, read the most positive and the most negative from the most helpful reviews. It is a spoiler risk, but it usually those 2 reviews uncover the strong and the weak points which allows you to decide whether YOU will enjoy the anime. There are good animes with total rating 6-7 and with reviews 8+. |
| I sometimes watch low rated anime to turn off my brain and just chill. Surprisingly 7+ rated anime aren't too bad. Many of them are even better than mainstream overrated anime. |
NANACHO FOR PRESIDENT |
| Do MAL ratings really matter? As long as the plot looks strong and interesting I am up for it. |
 |
| fair amount of time tbh just to see if it's really that low |
  "O kawaii koto" ( ´• ᴗ •` ) I wish i could love myself~ |
| Never understood why people even bother look at the ratings. They never helped me to choose anime that I would like. |
| if they're really low rated, some of them must be so bad they're good |
