| Why is everyone hating on this show? The rating is super low for a show with only like one episode. What could possibly be so bad that you'd immediately dislike it when the story hasn't even fully started? |
| It was probably the first episode that had lots of bouncing melons and 400 pages of ln material crammed into 20 minutes Second episode was a bit better although most people rated the show as a whole a 7 so far which means average on mal; I'm not really sure if you can conclude just yet that most people hate it |

| Chill dude. Most people have not seen this yet or the anime is still not finish so I would say the rating is not yet final. And it is still starting just like when Mob Psycho 100 is starting it gets 6 point something rating. |
 |
| Because it's not Steins;Gate tier, and people came in with high expectations of a show made by A-1 for reasons I don't understand. I personally think this rating is an over reaction so far since there is a lack of content to make a fair judgement against the series so far, and the show will end up around a low-mid 7. First episode sucked until the end, and apparently covered an entire volume, but I personally think that of I sat through that uncompressed I would have been bored out of my mind. |
| Signatures Suck |
| Expectations getting destroyed thanks to hype+ Horridly fast pacing in ep 1 + Tits that's bigger than my future + A-1 picz That's all I could think of but maybe that will change in the future eps except the tits part who knows |
 |
| Mostly because the first episode was absolutely horrible and so rushed it was almost incomprehensible Second episode was a lot better though so if it maintains that kind of pacing moving forwards I'm sure the score will rise again |

| bad first impression |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| So the other day I started to watch the first episode, than that big boobed bitch waltzed into the room, that whole moment was just too fucken cringe for me to handle and I dropped it. If later on down the track it's worshiped or some shit then maybe I'll give it another go and try to overlook the cringe, but right now that's impossible. Don't get me wrong, I like me some ecchi. But that big boobed girl who walked into the room just annoyed me too much, i hate characters like that ;-; |

| "You can't spell slaughter without laughter". |
Since when was fast talking a bad thing? Some anime are literally built around that principle |
| Signatures Suck |
| I dont hate it but I had to drop it. The first episode felt like the talking was done in fast forward. Then they try to distract me as I try to read the subs with huge oppai. I had no idea what was going on. |
 |
| Probably because of trying to summarize a work in little, and does not meet the hype because it was given. |

| It just wasn't worth it. It was too fast paced. And "Oppai girl" *ahem* let me respond to that with a video.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZxzJGgox_E Edit: As of now, I have now I gave this another shot and honestly even though it's slower paced it's still pretty bad. |

| Yeah, there's like maybe 10% actual plot content, 20% bouncing melons, 10% random shit, and 60% pointless and annoying random shit dialogue. Dafuq do you expect? "Ooh, I love people yammering about completely pointless random shit and bouncing melons! 10 10 10!" |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| It's funny that people are being this harsh on occult nine, but yet didn't give keijo nearly as much shit lol. And if you thought this was going to be as good as steins gate, then you set yourself up to be disappointed . Who cares if a character has abnormally large tits lol, it's anime. It's a norm. I think it's interesting so far and i'm really enjoying it. |
| The first episode was a little... odd, and the enormous boob thing was kind of weird [mostly bc I can see that they were going for a more realistic thing with how the breasts were animated, so why is she so damn tiny/skinny? It doesn't look right.] but the second episode was much much better. I'm really enjoying it, it's different than Steins;Gate but that's bc it ISN'T Steins;Gate. Plus only two episodes have aired. So.. I don't understand the overreaction either. Then again, that's a rather common thing here on MAL. :/ |

| i think the people don´t hate the series, the problem is that don´t get the attention. It´s a bit complicate, with more misterys!!! |
| Not going to dive into the comments to avoid possible spoilers, but I was very suprised. When looking at sesonal anime I think this was the most "popular" however it's rating is below 7 which surprised be quite a bit. Wondering if it will make a comeback, though I doubt it. |
 |
| Well, saner people (like me) probably hold off giving it a score until the story comes together. This show is the complete opposite of episodic, after all. |
| I agree with most people here, the main reason this show get's so many bad ratings was the terribly fast pacing of episode 1. The titty-thing is something I couldn't care less, I've seen worse, haha, so it didn't affect my first rating (gave it a 6 for episode 1 bc I had to download the vid and slow it down, but changed to 8 after ep2, where the pacing became normal). EP2 was already a lot better though. The rating will change over time, so don't worry about it this early. Frostbyte98 said: Many people rated it low and dropped it in the first ep, so it's obvious it will have low ratings like what happened with handa kun last season. Don't think that's too hard to understand. This a 100%. I love the Handa-kun manga, but the first episode was incredibly bad, like really, really bad. Worse than EP1 Bloodivores or EP1 Trickster, if I didn't know the greatness of the manga I would have dropped Handa-kun like a dead fish. The first impression is VERY important, it's sad how some producers/directors completely fail to understand this. No matter how good or bad Occultic;Nine might become in the future, there are already 1,615+ people who dropped it, leaving it with a low score and in most cases not coming back. The first episode ruined it for part of the viewers & for the overall rating of the show. The "hate" isn't there for no reason. I should also add that this was a "hype" anime for many people and the hype was killed in the first ~5 minutes. Look here for the stats: https://myanimelist.net/anime/32962/Occultic_Nine/stats |
| well the first episodes were a mess were nothing of signifance happened with lots of pointless expository dialogue and many unemorable characters were introduced making it impossible to care about any of them watch durarara if you want to see an okay version of what this show is trying to do |

I disliked the talkative MC, tits mcgee with a behavior of a 5 yro and the ridiculous pacing, although Ive seen much worse shows that get a much higher score so I dont really get it. @MissPsychoholic I didnt think the 1st episode of Handa-kun was that bad, it wasnt very good either but it made me stick around... Maybe its cause of my experience with Gintama and these type of episodes, idk. |
 Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself. That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes! |
| @Dishonest Funny that you mention Gintama! I had a hard time with the beginning of that anime too, watched 3 episodes and dropped it for months. But when I picked it up again & got used to the humor, it became one of my favourite anime of all time. Gintama made me laugh, cry and excited at the same time like no other series. Sometimes it pays to stick at something and have patience :) |
| It's pretty boring, and the only good thing I can say about it is there's boobs. |

And the content of bereserk 2016 is better. The content of berserk is better but i find it more agravating It is such a lazy adaptation that really has no purpose besides making the source looks worst |
| I dont want to be this guy, but its rated low because people gave it a low score. Why? because they dont like it. Why? Because it was very bad as a first ep. |

First impression doesn't matter all that much when you have reputation from other;titles. And those people who have dropped it? They were never the target audience in the first place. This show isn't for impatient people, by its very structure. |

Such ratings give you little to no insight whatsoever. |
| Mixture of two things. 1. The first episode was a clusterfuck, lightspeed pacing and no one was prepared for it. 2. People fapped over the semicolon in the title and expected way more than this actually is. |
DeltaK317 said: I personally didn't enjoy the first two episodes. The world thus far in Occultic;Nine is completely undefined, lacks atmosphere, and the characters seem like they belong in a moe anime (and I like moe). It might also be getting a lot of criticism from people that normally wouldn't watch a supernatural or cult focused anime. It seems silly, but people that loved Steins;Gate and Chaos;Head came expecting a psychological science thriller, and instead found bouncing fast talking unlikable characters with more silliness than a comedy anime with cultic conspiracy theories in the land of nonsense. Will fans of Supernatural and Cultic anime like it? Probably. Will Steins;Gate fans like it? Not inherently. "Occult" isn't the same word as "cult". "Occult" means something like "hidden magical knowledge", and it's used to describe stuff like ghosts, Ouija boards, fortune telling, real-life magic... "Cult" means something like "bad religion", it's used to describe groups like scientology, satanism, Aum Shinrikyo, and many others. Note that the term is meant as a term of abuse, and thus can be applied to any religious group one doesn't like. Some are just like ordinary religions, but more zealous and unwilling to deal with outsiders, and the worst ones release poison gases upon innocent people. |
