| I myself would probably give it a 6/10 now. But a MAL-Community Score of 6 is too harsh. At first i thought it was the "CGI bias", so the score would go up over time, but apparently not. Sure, the "name-throwing" might be a small hassle, but it isn't to the point of being annoying, a lot of anime that have it don't get this treatment. The CGI framerate is bad even when watching at 60FPS, but most of the anime isn't the CGI fights. A lot of it is dialogue instead of getting straight to the point, but again, MAL didn't give this treatment to lots of anime that also had that. I mean, the art and ost are pretty, and it has some nice ideas, by the "MAL-Community-Score" standart it would probably be a 7. Why is this receiving such treatment? |

| MAL scores are weird sometimes. Something like OniAi which had some great first eps sat under 7 in the beginning (although the quality of eps did drop as the show progressed) From what I observed, other than the complaints you mentioned there's also the cliche plot elements (with Marlya and Veronica's whole story) plus the fact that Marlya is a pretty boring character. MAL community standard I'd say it be high 6's, just under 7 |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Sure it has its hiccups but it's not as bad as Kenja no Mago which has a higher score. To be honest, right now, I am finding it hard to stay interested in the series but the production value is definitely better than many of the series that came out this season. I'm keeping my own score at a 5 until things get better. |

It's obvious that it will have inflated rating and more popularity than it deserves. |

| i think it deserves the score that its received, id give it lower than the 6 yes i havent kept up because it was just so boring and stale i could force myself to watch anymore. Not because of the CGI cause i dont care about that. and yeah Kenja no Mago is overrated af lmao idk which is worse i dropped that one too |
| I see this better than "certain" isekai anime, I will give my personal score at the end atleast, honest option and not brainwashed score options by some youtubers. |

| I am quite surprised to see this anime scoring so low. Although, from a personal standpoint, I get it. This anime is sort of all over the place with everything. It’s characters aren’t being developed properly, the plot is convoluted as hell, and it’s pacing is about as fast as a NASCAR race. I’m not really that bothered by the CGI elements, especially considering it’s such a big part of anime nowadays, but I don’t think that’s why other people are hating the series either. |

They would be too stupid to hate an art for its graphical part. The commoners. The simpletons. Bonjins do get a say on these forums, but their input is usually of zero value. You may safely disregard anything anyone says about computer graphic here. Well, I’m accustomed to a certain level of pretentiousness from anime fans...and I know CGI holds some contention among some. I’m rather indifferent when it comes to CGI. I watch anime more for the story and characters than the production elements, so I’d rather see an anime with horrible CGI, but a phenomenal story and characters than a gorgeously animated series that has a shit story and shit characters. I mean shoot, High Score Girl was one of my favorite anime last year and I’ll admit the animation was dog shit. |
| I think we are. The anime is not that bad. The OST os great |

| School Days is good and it has that score, so I don't trust mean scores. |

| hard to believe they can make an action show as boring as this. I only lasted up to episode 2.. before drop. The storytelling did not make me care about any of the characters at all. |
| honestly it has a great premise, great ideas and such, a great plot but very little sees to happen, the characters are boring with their developments the villains had more to them, and even they had so little.... the action is very sub-par (im enjoying black clover more than this) The music is not amazing, pretty mediocre.. This show was hyped up alot and looked great in the beginning, but it couldn't hold out... i had such a hard time even wanting to finish it, and it dragged on so much... tl;dr Everything about this show was mediocre |

| I still don't get why Sirius got 7.21 while it was a lot worse. This one should have 7.xx and Sirius 6.xx. But then again I care more about plot/characters. MIght be because of animation and vampires that more people liked Sirius. Even Kuromukuro which was a lot better than both (fomr the same studio) only managed 7.32. I mean: In Kuromukuro it was easy to understand the plot while watching weekly. Not too many chars and they could be developed nicely. Here we have t lot of chars. Not that much development ... cause ther is too much stuff packed into the anime (chars, plot, politics). Still it is possible to roughly follow the plot. (I had a bit problems at some points ... because it is weekly and hard to remember.) Sirius started just by showing tons of weird organizations and action and the plot was basically the vamp guy searching for something and I don't know about the other organizations ... basicaly action + vampires + no char development. Focus on vampires and action. Much worse than fairy gone. I wouldn't say this is a top anime. I only scored it 7 (7.4 rounded down) and I scored Sirius 7 (6.5 rouinded up) as well. (While Kuromukoro was an 8.) But clearly something is wrong nowaday with MAL. Becoming more and more unpredictable. Few years ago you'd knew how the scores would develop. (And I don't mean "similar to my own taste". I know for certain stuff that I scored 8 or 6 that it could become 7 or even 8.xx when I scored it 6 - when it was easy to see that it had stuff which could get popular.) Nowadays it is much more 6, 8 ... randomly something out of these for very similar stuff just because ... I don't know why. The 8 one had a girl some people liked to fap to? |
| unfortunately CGI and lack of fanservice didn't help this series. Even Game of Thrones had sex scenes so people would watch without caring for all names/people and places they were throwing at us. |

Didn't you know Isekai genre got an automatic boost in score in Mal's standard regardless of quality/ plot? But yeah, both of those 2 are trash in my opinion. All they are going for is have a few harem cheeks who're relatively cute in Otaku standard as companions which automatically draw a large group of otaku audience. |

AquaShldEXE said: This is a niche anime on an aggregate score website, of course it has a low score. Doesn't mean it's bad, just means that no one wants to give it a chance. Eh, I don’t agree with that statement. In my experience P.A. Works is one of those Jekyl or Hyde studios. They don’t usually produce a lot of what I call “average” anime. They usually produce either masterpieces or absolute piles of dog dung and I’d put Fairy Gone in the latter. I really wanted the series to be good, but this anime’s narrative (at least through eight episodes because that’s when I dropped) is just all over the place. When half the series is practically flashbacks, it’s not a well constructed narrative. I think if this series would have just started out with a whole episode or two detailing Marlya’s childhood and then worked it’s way up to the events at the auction late in episode 2 or episode 3, I think it would have been okay. Still, this series keeps trying to push style over substance. The series doesn’t need to have a bunch of fights or action scenes every episode. Just let the story tell itself and let the fights come where they may. I’m sure I’m not alone. I mean, you’d have to be a pretty damn cynical anime fan to think something is going to be bad before you even give it a chance. I just think a lot of anime fans saw Fairy Gone for what it was...just a poorly constructed narrative with lackluster character development and rather porous CGI. |
| certain loli harem isekai whatnot got high scores and i personally dislike em' for being overrated. ive watched fairy gone and very pleased with the story, its light and simple and non convoluted with a generous rating of 7 for satisfaction. though, i havent watch the last 2 episodes, i am sure im not going to be disappointed now that i know theres a second season. good ol fairy gone, i remember watching it every week after work somewhere in march and april and got really busy after that making me didnt catch up with the show lol |

| Weirdly low score. I personally liked it quite a bit, though it did take some time to warm up to it and a couple of episodes in the middle were kind of boring (with Marlya's self-reflection drama), but the action was good in general and in the last 2 episodes it was great, both visually and well choreographed. |
