| I really expected this update to be an April Fool's joke because the old system is much better. |
 |
takkun_ said: I wouldn't really say it's believeable. It sticks out like a sore thumb. Also it was 31st for you but it was april 1st for most of the world. But anyway yeah its nothing serious.It ain't that serious bro lmao. Posting an April Fool's prank on March 31st is lame, but kudos to the MAL staff for making it believable. After terrible updates, such as using emoji to rate user reviews, anything is possible on this website. Despite the joke bring poorly worded, its believabilty is what makes it better than prior year's pranks. |

| The real joke would be if this was an actual update. |

| I think they should just keep it that way B) |
 |
| 100% based peak skibidi update |
| Ruining your site for a whole day just for a joke is such a stupid move imho, esp. when the season starting today. Wish people stop wasting time and resources for this dumb day. |
| @TheDefCrypt My company's domain and server are also in US simply because it was cheaper, despite it being EU company started and ran be people here. By your logic we should use US times etc? |
| @TheDefCrypt Honestly, majority of our userbase is now from the EU and SEA, the North American portion is only 1/3. English will remain the dominant language, but North America is no longer the dominant geography served. |

| Gotta love how MAL still manages to troll some people |

Gotta love how MAL still manages to troll some people
| @terminador_2397 They really do . They have released so many bad changes to the website that we don't know what is April fools joke or not |
| I was looking around on MAL with a friend doing the Easter hunt and saw this change without seeing the forum post update about it. Was losing it like this has to be a clue?! LOL |
| lol thanks for the April fools laugh as always, this site will always be mykittylist in my heart since last year lmao |
| I hope this is a horrible April fools joke because this is absolutely a dog water update. Please revert this trash. |
| Lmao a lot of people fell for it. |
Echidna best waifu :D |
| Was about to rant about how the new score system is irritating af but it's April Fool's, well played. Just subtle enough to go under the radar. |
| We need to petition MAL to make this April Fools update stay for good. This is better than the numbers, the emojis are easier to understand! |

Oh doy, I feel like an idiot. I hadn't even realized April Fool's was tomorrow, probably the same for most of the detractors here.

| @Extremo888 Yea, I came here to write my first non-anime post I was so upset. Thanks for catching this. |
| Anyway, we’ve all had our laughs (or not), but April Fool’s is over for most of the world, so it might be time to change it back- |

You are a disgrace of an Admin. You remove features in an attempt to make the experience better. And replace simple design that work with something that might be used by children application or something. First, you came for the comment under authors/staff which was infuriating, then you added emojis with reveiws were downright non-sense, and now this atrocities.
How long will it take for this sh!tshow to stop. Not until this site drown or when this person finally accept they are doing as bad of a job as diversity hire with no qualification.

| @Y3337 Thank god it was a prank. Given how bad she have been doing it was consistent to her actual decisions. |
| Thank God it was a joke. That percentage was really driving me crazy... if was true, it was the worst change MAL could make. |
 |
| Peak? Bro I know I'm late and this is April fools and all but this seems like lazy story writing kinda shiz. Fellas out here thinking adding :mountain: is good content |

| I guess |

| @N1ghtsh4de For me, this was consistent to the previous decision of adding emojis to reviews and removing the comment section under staffs profile. It is almost as if she is subconsciously aware of what we dislike about the current changes and made it into a joke without realizing it or they sadistically know that we dislike the current things and purposely torment us wishing it was a joke. |
Reply to Light-
when it's no longer April 1st and the site still hasn't changed back
| @Light- They eventually did. Maybe because they were either slow or maybe they tried to sadistically mess with us. |
| i'm still saying they shouldn't have changed it back to normal, new one is too good. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| I honestly really liked it! Someone please make it into a browser extension |

| i saw some peak 🗻 during the easter hunt and i only realised it wasn't a legit update lol |
