Lastly... Tatami galaxy

Most of this we're under appreciate, among the fans who desire to choose Overrated and generic ones Hayzz. It's Degree are very unique that it truly even had a true plot and execution which others won't know it's high potential

Too bad, Someone are just too dumb to understand every aspects of the show by judging only the art that stand alone

Railgun is extremely underrated, especially the first season. Raildex is more deserving of making up MAL's top ten than Gintama is.

I'm totally agreed with you, specially Revolutionary Girl Utena and Serial Experiments Lain, both are excellent anime. Humanity has declined is pretty good as well, but I think is a step behind of the other two.

Innocent Venus; Both underwatched (only 10,500 completed) and underrated. I mean, it's not a masterpiece, but it deserves at least 7,30 imo.

School Days, which again, isn't THAT great, but come on, it's not bad either. It's unique and it has characters that you hate because they're just so hateable, but that's kind of the point.

Ayakashi: Japanese Classic Horror also deserves to be watched more, the score is fine.

Flip Flappers: deserves to be ranked in at least top 250, if not even higher. I can't really say it's underwatched yet since it's still relatively new.

Kingdom: also very underwatched, but score is more than fine.

Kurozuka: I could rant about this for days, but let's keep it short. Kurozuka has an amazing story, which is confusing at time, yes, but if you watch it from the beginning till the end, you will get it. Score of 7,07 is way too low for a great piece of work such as this. Also, very underwatched.

UN-Go is also pretty underwatched.

I think Tokyo Ghoul gets more hate than it deserves. It's not the best, but it certainly isn't bad imo. Also Higurashi is kinda low-rated for how good it is imo.

Yep. And same goes for Bleach.
Definitely Akiba's Trip such a fun anime. Id

Just to mention a few ones.

Katte ni Kaizou: Probably because the series just had a few OVAs instead of a proper TV series like it's sucessor Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, but the series should be more known. Is both extremely funny and over-the-top, while maintaining the cynical comedy of Zetsubou Sensei. It has also an incredible hilarious ending full of black comedy. Still has an score of 7.04, so I guess something is something.

Sasami-san@Ganbaranai: I don't understand how this can't be rated with a 7.00 at least. Is because people didn't understand Japanese mythology? It has cool battles (the one of the first episode against the chocolate monster is amazing), a cool storyline and cute girls, all by the hand of Shaft's bizarreness. It's no masterpiece, but deserves a higher score imo.

Genei wo Kakeru Taiyou: Probably rated with a 6.52 because people labeled it as a Madoka clone. While the series it's dark and the main character is similar to Madoka
, the similarities between both series ends here. This one also uses the motives of the tarot and their meaning to the protagonists (thing which I wish it was used more often in animes, since it's a legit interesting motif), who makes the series a bit more unique to me.
I also love the designs of the protagonists when they trasform into magical girls, the main antagonist is cool, the fights are good and the opening is one of my favourite songs of LiSA.
Quite a pity the series didn't ended being more popular and ended having just one season. It would have been interested seen what could have been if it would had spawned a franchise.

There are Studio Ghibli movies that are extremely underrated like Only Yesterday (Taeko is my child), Porco Rosso, and The Tale of the Princess Kaguya. I know that some of y'all will disagree with me, but I'm basing this on my observation. :/

It was funny but the last 3 episodes were just stupid which kinda ruined it. I don't think the japanese mythology is the problem.

I'm aware the series was no masterpiece, and I wasn't a big fan of the dramatic frienship subplot of Sasami and Kagami, but I enjoyed the series more than I disliked it, so I didn't find it that bad.

Before someone calls me crazy for mentioning such a incredibly popular franchise, hear me out. I think a lot of Gundam shows are very underrated.
Due to the fact it's such a well-known mecha, I feel like a lot of people don't give them a chance because of the very specific audience the shows are aimed at. However. Most Gundam series handle stuff such as political and sociological issues freaking well. The plots are often way deeper than just 'here, have 50 episodes with badass mobile suits that wreck each other while you fanboy on their designs'.
Again, not all of the shows are as good as the others, but a lot of them are very likable imo, even by non-mecha fans.

In my case, I decided to watch Oregairu after reading many positive reviews and being pressured by some friends, The truth is that I found the series really boring, and everyone was like "No it's amazing, just give it a chance!!" Then I decided to finish it thanks to its MC Hikigaya. Something similar happened when I tried to watch SAO, with the difference that I haven't continued watching it after ep 4...

Steins; Gate

Literally the whole world loved/liked it, but me. I disliked the characters, their characterization, the art, the excess of plot conveniences, how some characters were added just to stretch the show for a couple of episodes, and how the overall story potential was just so wasted.
