There is no such thing as bad taste, because preferences in anime are completely subjective. Also, my ratings are as fair as it gets.

When I watched Kakugo no Susume together with a bunch of other anime fans and got really into it, but then half the people silently got up and left, it gave me pause.

I watched Boku no Pico around 2008 and really liked the story. When it later became an internet meme I found it a bit weird that basically no one else thinks what I think:




It got a super catchy Opening, too.

You can quote me as many times as you want, I don't care what others think about my ratings as I rate them for myself and apply how I liked them, I don't give a single F if someone disagrees with my ratings.

The thing is, I think i'm pretty fair with my scores. of course that doesn't mean they aren't still subjective, but I don't think any of them are "unreasonable".

But the issue is, my scores don't really represent how much I enjoy the shows, they represent how good I consider them to be critically. Which yes, again, I understand that, that is still subjective, it's just a different kind of subjective.

If I went by enjoyment, I would probably give highschool of the dead a higher score than half of my 9s and 10s. which means I do have shit taste.

That said, I don't think you're going to find anything to REALLY roast me on if you went through my list. feel free to try though. oh and you may want to look at it on desktop, I have notes next to them, which may give you more ammo.

No one has bad taste, it's just a matter of preference in what you watch.
Just an avid anime watcher of 18 years, not much else I could say about myself (that I don't want to reveal, of course, just ask if you wanna know more!)

@LSSJ_Gaming No worries madam, I won't shame you for giving a Digimon movie a 10, or rating MHA S1 and S2 a 10, or FMAB an 8. Who I'm to say what you should or shouldn't watch. If you permit me to offer my opinion, your taste seems to lack discernment, as you watch content that is widely considered to be of inferior quality or lacking refinement. Looks like you've been watching a lot of hentai. Maybe that's why your tastes are a bit off.

Read this Perhaps it's a good idea to ease up on the hentai binge before things get out of hand. Here, take this cupcake ๐Ÿง it benefit the mental health.

@LSSJ_Gaming I don't really care if you rate FMAB an 8 or a 10 or a 1. "Who is the abriter of what "bad taste" is? Everyone has varying interests and that is something to be celebrated not shamed", so considering this argument, there seems to be little point in debating anything further, as everyone's perspective is subjective. Everyone can say whatever the heck they want as it is subjective yayy. Here a cucumber ๐Ÿฅ’ it good for your subjectiveness.

I don't know what counts as good taste since I consider myself more of a casual anime watcher. I rarely watch what's popular. I just watch whatever seems interesting to me.

You cant eat at a fancy restaurant you whole life

I think I had a good taste, but ofc we all have guilty pleasures or just like stuff that just aint that good. I like well written and animated animes, but Im not gonna just ignore or not watch stuff that I know is trash but I have fun watching it.

And I wont back down: How not to summon a demon lord is amazing and I enjoyed all of it. The same for Nekopara and I will defend the anime of Girls Frontline until I die. It is so bad that is... that is... is ok

"When did you realize you had bad taste in anime?"

In order to have good taste you should go under the process of "refining your taste", which means:
- Follow serious professional critics.
- Doing university courses about anime (if any).
- Doing a lot of digging yourself about artists, studios, artistic movements and stuff.
- Watching tons of anime you aren't interested in, but represent key anime historical stuff.
- Last, but not least follow what your idea of beau monde has to say about anime.


I never did any of this, so no wonder...

@Phosphophyllita Shingeki is not a bad anime. It does get bonkers but I don't think you can disregard the first 3 seasons simply because it gets a bit too wild in the later seasons.

I mean, taste is subjective in everything. xD

Take it as everyone else taste is shit and yours is always good.

Or just as consensus everyone taste in general is shit. Including yourself.

Objectively, whenever the overall ratings on someone's list falls below a 4/10 that's how you know.

When I started to have more fun with my peak-fiction memes and so bad it's good animes like KamiKatsu, Kanokari, Sabagebu!, Valvrave, Mahou Shoujo Site, etc. and slept over masterpieces like Mo Dao Zu Shi, Texhnolyze, Ghost in the Shell movie or Vinland Saga.
