| I'm really just curious. Lately I've come across a few users - mostly those who've completed 600 anime or more - who seem to rate the majority of the anime they watch a 5 or less. But... why? Does age and the amount of anime you watch make you more critical/nitpicky? I haven't watched that much anime at all, so I'm generally easy to please, but that doesn't mean I haven't dropped any anime or don't have any anime I don't like. |
 |
| I've seen a lot more than most and I still give 7's and 8's most seasons to at least one show. The internet is just full of a lot of sour people that hate life and can't be entertained anymore unless something is 100% what they expected it to be. |
| Ideally your average rating should be 5.5, or maybe higher if you don't rate anime you've dropped or only pick up series you know you will enjoy. Because.... erm... math. You are far far too kind with your ratings. It should be 5, but MAL itself is weird and doesn't have 0 as a score so.... |
| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |

| Uh, I give 5-6 mostly. Because it's easier to try to make something great but fail or just be good than for it to be actually great or fail spectacularly. |
| Hmm. I suppose it depends on a user's personal rating system, then? I rate almost purely based on personal enjoyment, so... |

| Because there's a fair amount of anime watchers who refuse to drop something despite the fact they knowingly hate or think the show is garbage for the sake of finishing it and masochism. So clearly they will have more completed shows with a lot being rated low compared to someone who mostly just watches what they enjoy, with an occasional low rated show and drop most of what they don't like. |
| I imagine it gets difficult to find 'good' anime after watching that amount of anime. Seen a few hundred, seen 'em all kind of thing. Repeated tropes, repeated storylines, etc. The further you go down the anime rabbit hole, the more distant your instant favorites feel as you realize that most anime will never give you the same impactful experience you felt with your favorites. May not mean you're not enjoying yourself per se, but I imagine the experience is dull. Us anime watchers with low amounts of anime seen have the greatest privileges of still looking forward to watching some really great stuff. |
 Just this once, I'll fulfill whatever your wish is. |
| It's called being honest. You want us to lie about our ratings? |

49er477 said: I'd be afraid of my daughter getting gang banged if they looked like your avatar. I wouldn't, I generally live in a low crime country. So as long as you don't do stupid shit like meeting online friends in a dark alley or drinking till you are drunk alone, it's pretty safe. |

| There is nothing wrong with that. It's up to them how they want to rate it. Everyone pretty much just use their own rating system. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| Some people just aren't satisfied with anything, so giving things lower ratings makes them seem cool; neutral, distant etc. |

Xenovia said: not everyone one is like that. you just have to look for the right guy... Rating an anime on MAL is not just about the score. I generally use a 4-10 range, with 1-3 reserved for really bad fanservice OVAs and series that genuinely piss me off. My point is, having an average of 5-6 gives a better spread of scores than an average of 7-8. If you like a show significantly more than another, it's better if you let that show as a one point difference on your MAL ratings. You've never come across a show you've found much better than something you rated 8 but not good enough as one you rated 9? Sure you could rate it 8.5 logically, but MAL doesn't really support that as it lacks decimals. |

And then when some reviewer rates a series low and gives "good" or profound proof, ppl still rant since the score, which is the reflection of the proof in the series, seem to alleviate it all... I dunno.. I dunno... What I'm trying to say is... ppl nitpicks in small details that don't need to look deeper into, like, if you saw a construction site, will you go?

| By definition your average rating should be 5.5. Your average score will be higher when you first start watching anime as you tend to watch better shows, as well are not as aware of all the troupes and cliques as you are new to the media. As you watch more and more shows you will find good ones and bad ones especially if you watch seasonals thus quickly leading to the a 5.5 distribution. There are also people like me who are in an anime group and as soon as someone calls a show a dumpster fire I immediately watch it just to see how bad it is and thus have a lot more 1s and 2s, than most. Having a higher score doesn't mean you like anime more than someone else all it does it devalues your scores. A user with an average rating of 7.7 giving a show an 8/10 is worth less than a user with a 5.5 giving a show a 6/10. All having a higher average rating does it make your 10s, 9s, and 8s a lot special especially when you see users with averages of 8.5+ average scores making an 8/10 a bad rating according to their own rating system as its below average. |

LouM said: yes and thats why ratings on mal shouldnt be trusted whether to watch something or not.... Watching a show based solely on rating is a bad method. I would be far more interested in the reasoning. Whenever I rate a show highly the first thing I do is look for is reviews that rated the show poorly as these tend to be the most insightful in possibly finding a flaw I missed. Whenever I rate a show low its often difficult to find a review that rated the show good, while giving valid points beside the fights were SOOO cool, or the characters were good without stating why they were good once. |

Eh... I dunno... ppl do it they way they wanted to if you ask me, one person does not mean the entire human population. One person rated one 2/10 doesn't mean that all human will do it... I dunno... Like... Why y'all complicate rating that is just the reflection of other's opinion... Think about it. Not everyone is the same. Ppl do it because they want to, ppl do it because they can troll ppl, ppl do it because they rate genuinely on what they do and believe they do it because they do it for fuck's sake. What I'm trying to say is, instead on focusing on the score, why not just think outside the box for a moment... And consider yourself as the one who rates the series, not as a bystander, but in the OP's shoes... Y'all think too much... Why not put yourself in that position? If you think, you can get everything within just the millisecond or something like that... Consider someone's perspective... And probably, threads like "Why there's so Elitism..." "Why do ppl rate it low?" "Why is this series overrated/underrated?" "Why do ppl like this shitty series?" "Why do ppl like SAO?" Like really... It's just a score. A mean score. I dunno how ppl got 1/10 or 2/10... But they got it because, probably, they think about it as hard as you could, like "Damn this dude rated it 2/10 what the fuck is this dude thinking?" or "Fuck this dude, his mean score is 5... The fuck?" I mean, guys, I dunno... yes and thats why ratings on mal shouldnt be trusted whether to watch something or not.... I wouldn't go as far as that, to label it as " not trusted"... Basically, if someone recs something to me, I'll look it up... And @zombie_pegasus damn dude, I forgot the series you rec'ed to me.. Damn.... I just realize it... Back on what I'm gonna say, it's a hit-or-miss kinda thing... If one is "trusted" either it is "genuine" or ppl have come to terms that it is trusted like the anime recommendation panel... Or something like reviews... But well, different ppl enjoy different things so yeah... |

| Watching more anime = getting to find better anime. Your rating changes, and so does your opinion on anime. I've changed a lot of my ratings, and I've also kept some where they're at. When I started watching anime back in high school, I thought shitty harem/ecchi shows were greatest thing ever, but now I see them as a waste of time and they're just there for the fanservice for the most part. Now that I've seen all the good shows, I compare a lot of stuff to my 8-10 scores and say "Is it equal or better than this". |

| because if you aren't critical at all that means you have no standards what so ever which is why we devolved from great shows like Kanon 2006 and Clannad After Story to lower things like Angel Beats and Charlotte same with how we had the greatness of The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya but now sadly have the disappointment that is Kimi no Na wa I could also bring up how with every iteration of Rie Kugimiya’s Shana clone there was a drop of quality so to say but I still do like all 5 of those series |

Psychedelicate said: I'm really just curious. Lately I've come across a few users - mostly those who've completed 600 anime or more - who seem to rate the majority of the anime they watch a 5 or less. But... why? Does age and the amount of anime you watch make you more critical/nitpicky? I haven't watched that much anime at all, so I'm generally easy to please, but that doesn't mean I haven't dropped any anime or don't have any anime I don't like. The more shows you watch, the more cliches you notice, the more it takes for a show to impress you. Sometimes, said individual just needs to take a break, but sometimes, the shows they are watching really aren't that great. Sometimes they do need to take a little more care to make sure they might actually enjoy what they are going to watch. But some people live by the philosophy of watch everything or are like me and watch things outside their comfort zone because they run a club. Or they well, watch everything. And that is their right. Maybe they are hoping to be surprised. But it really is true. The more you watch of a medium. the more you can judge the medium on a whole. And sometimes the harder it is to appreciate the same things everyone else does. Typically, if I don't like a show though- I stop in the first 1-3 episodes. I don't force myself to march through the entire thing. That would be stupid. Unless of course... I watched it in anime club. Oh and some of the shows I rate low I actually LIKED. Just because it has a low rating doesn't mean I didn't find it entertaining. But it doesn't mean the show wasn't bad. Example of Bad show I have watched a lot: Cipher the Video. |
