When a review is introduced like this:

"More Yuri loving Mugi Chan!
More Pigeon toed clumsy ass Yui-chan!
More assertive energetic Ritsu-san!
More moe moe tundere AZU-NYAN!
more importantly, more MIO SAMA!!!!!!!!!!! /dies"

... is it not appropriate to tell said person that they are a mouth breathing idiot and to stop writing reviews? I mean... for their own good?
Every time I see an English-speaker on the Internet add an honorific to someone's name, I die a little bit inside. Every time I see, "^_^," my will to carry on crumbles that much more.

No, being blunt and honest isn't mean. They'll keep doing it and one day it'll kill them, save a life.

but I'm being a hypocrite cause I can't be blunt and honest cause I hate sounding mean, lol but I admire those that can!

Well wait a minute, are you specificly referring to someone who reviewed K-On!! recently? And if so, then who?

At any rate, regarding that sort of way to introduce a review, I think it implies a couple of things:

1) It's meant to entertain, and catch the person's attention to want to read more.
2) People who are reading that review already have an idea of what that show or whatever is about or what is the obvious theme of it.
3) The reviewer is showing how he/she feels towards this show which I think is the point of a review. It's kinda like a constructive opinion unless I'm mistaken and the only way for a review to be perfect would be if it appealed to everyone who sees it.

But again, that what I think.

Even though that beginning was... (lost for the right word) A little bit over the top.
Nah, even if it was horrible, I wouldn't say anything; only if it was insulting, then!
I'd do something about it; and with my knowledge of murder and war-crimes, it ain't gonna be good.

I say you should have to pass a test of some sorts, or have a mod look over the review before posting one, that way morons can't post trash like this (2nd one) or the "review" Sick_Bastard posted for LoGH.

Hmmm I have read that somewhere before....hmmm...

In truth it is a bit childish, but that reviewer did right good info. The only bad thing is that only one episode of K-ON! season 2 is out. :/

Well if that's how they see the show then they should be able to write their review how they want, if you don't like it then just stop reading. It's not like there is a specific mold on how to write, although if I read a review like that I would be slightly annoyed too.

Critize them isn't anything wrong. You are free to speak your mind, and your opinion. But politely of course, telling them to "Get the f*ck out" is bit... too much.

But personally, I'd just ignore it.
If you don't have anything nice to say about others, just don't say anything.
The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be named is not the eternal name. The nameless is the beginning of heaven and Earth. The named is the mother of the ten thousand things.
I do not recall, Jesus ever saying "build churches, temples, and kill those who doesn't follow christianity..." nor he said "christianity is religion".

Think about it this way,

You don't know them,
if you reply to them they may respond,
and you may get to know them,
this could be bad or good,
depending on who they are,
