Hi everybody. I'm a little stuck on what anime I want to watch next. I'm newish to anime still, so my completed list isn't uber long yet. Anyways, I'd like to shorten my PTW list and would like to know which ones on there I should watch next based on my other ratings. Dark, bloody stuff is normally my favorite type, but I can watch a variety of genres.

If you see something not on my PTW list that you think I'd enjoy, go ahead and post that here too! Thanks again, everyone!

I'd go with "Another" if you like dark bloody type.

Btooom! is also very good, so is Sword Art Online.

You know, I've never heard of SOA, but boy, these statistics are undeniable!



I mean, it's so good that someone that doesn't even think it's "great" gives it a 9/10. Hypnotism?!

Hey OP, want to watch SOA together? I think it'll be really fun!

I don't understand. Why don't you want him to like it? If he likes it, he likes it.

And really, an anime that's scored by 86413 users and gets as high as an 8.35?! And with a distribution like this:



only 7.3% (3.2+1.9+.9+.6+.7) of MAL don't like it or think it merely average. Why should we listen to only this small percentage of users with bad taste?

92.7% of 86413 people here like or love it. Why shouldn't we?

Popularity =/= quality, that is one of the oldest fallacies known to mankind. Especially when you consider that most people who rate SAO highly lack a sufficient basis of comparision within the genre to judge it accurately.

But it's not just popularity, it's the scores too. Anyway, I think I'll trust what 86413 people have to say over what one single hater has to say. And boy, you should get off your tropospherically high horse, telling 86413 people that they don't know how to rate anime!

Whom do you trust more when asking for good book recommendations? The 14-year old girl that has only read Twilight and recommends it as the best book ever written or the 40-year old literary critic that recommends you a dozen titles that are considered classics? It's the same with anime.

Who do you think you are getting off telling all 92.7% of 86413 people that they have immature taste?! How do you know all of them? Do you have proof? At least I was able to provide sound statistics. It's as if you believe almost everyone in MAL are likened to those that "only read Twilight". Does Sturgeon's Law also apply to people? So you're saying 90% of people are "crap"? Seriously, listen to yourself! Absolutely ridiculous.

*sigh*, we're getting off topic. I'm through talking to trolls. Sorry OP, I just can't stand the amount of hypocrisy in this thread. First we have LanaNi saying SOA is "not that great" yet he/she/it rates it 9/10. Then we have this troll telling people that "he might believe you and like it", as if liking an anime is a bad thing. I mean, I don't know what his problem is against SOA, but being of the incredibly low minority in MAL, only 7.3% of us, he really shouldn't be recommending jack on SOA.

But the fact of the matter is, we all know that fans of Twilight and Bieber are 14-year-old girls. How do we know that 86413 of SOA raters on MAL are like that? MAL's not only targeted toward those with immature taste, people. *sigh*

Then how come most people who recommend SAO or ask for similar anime on MAL fail to grasp the basic rules of English grammar?

Bieber is marketed to 13-17 year old girls, henche why this population like it.
SAO is a shonen, wich is targeted at 13-17 year old boys, wich we can say is most of its fanbase.

Just look around in this subforum and click on any thread that ask for "animes like SAO" "anime's similar to sao". There are more than enough examples, some are even on the first page.
You are an easy target. You should chill off and don't take this so serious. I mean, look at my signature...
