I think rating or giving a score to anime has to do with own preference or judging criteria to it. Out of 10, i never give anime a score lower than 5 when there are at least some parts of anime that i do enjoy and considering that there is still effort put in to create/product the anime.What is the lowest score you ever gave to any particular anime and why did you gave that score? Feel free to share your opinions, thank you.

I gave Shitcom a 1. There was no effort here. There was no talent here. I sat there appalled and depressed for a good hour that it existed and was in the MAL database.

3/10 to Gyakuten Saiban (Ace Attorney) adaptation.

Animation was mostly below my standards and greatly below what the game deserved.

Plot points were changed around way to much even if it was needed.

Much of those "needed" changes were due to the anime's poor and inconsistent use of it's time.

Speaking of time, they tried to adapt 2 games within 25 eps. Would've been better with they went with just 1 game, even if the pacing was slow.

Many iconic moments were either removed or butchered in its execution.

They even removed an power/ability present in the games that have a role on the overall plot. I don't care if it would have been difficult to implement the power in anime form, don't even bother with an adaptation then.

In the end, it was probably a mistake to entrust Ace Attorney to a studio such as A-1 Pictures.

I have a similar thinking.
If the animations, sound and all that is good I'm comfortable giving it a 5-6/10.
If its a dropped anime than 1-7/10

I don't go lower than 5/10, simply because people on this site won't even watch stuff that's at 7/10, let alone at 5...

Would be pointless to give something a 1 or a 2. I used to, but not anymore.

For the lowest rate in dropped anime, it's 2 and for completed anime, it's 4. I guess for the dropped anime you can't help it so it is definitely doing to be low cause u didn't like the anime.. but after the main points of what has to be good in anime is the art, soundtrack, characters, development, and PLOT.. basically if any of them is bad then the score will drop..

i gave nisekoi a 2 based on my enjoyment. i usually drop an anime when it just feels like too much, and sometimes i don't even touch an anime that i know are gonna be filled with physically abusive tsunderes and generic beta males who gets all the vaginas for no apparent reason, but since this was HIGHLY recommended to me by my friend, just thought it could make a good conversation topic. turns out, that's 20 episodes of my life i'm never getting back.

I rated Gate Season 2 a 3 which to me is equivalent to dogshit. I feel like this show should have been made during WW2 as some sort of nationalistic propaganda because of the way it tries to glorify Japan by blowing up weak and innocent people who simply have different ideals to them. Also the fact that they use fan-service to mask the truly awful and disgusting themes in this show is absolutely unforgivable.

I gave Kuroshitsuji a 3.

I had such high expectations because I loved the manga, but the anime was primarily non-cannon bullshit.

It was a disappointment :(

Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid - 2/10

I was looking so forward to this show and it turn out to be a major disappointment. It had an interesting premise, but dropped the ball. I mean come on, women who can change into weapons? I think that pretty cool, but this show ugh. The fights scenes were boring. Heck I don't even view this show as fap material because I hate the looks of most of the characters expect for Meifon, I actually like her character. Everybody else I didn't care about or dislike them.

I am totally excited when i heard there was anime adaption of Ace Attorney since it is one of my favorite game of all time. However, i dropped it after a few episodes. I think i got high expectation of it due to the game.

I gave Divergence Eve a 0. In MAL is a 1/10 but that's the lowest rating I gave it. It was so shit, that calling it shit is an insult to shit, not even trying to put it on the bad anime that I've watched.

Lowest score that I've ever given to a TV anime was 2 and those anime were Ishida to Asakura and Pupa. I don't see any redeeming qualities about Ishida to Asakura. The characters look ugly and the humor didn't sit well with me either. Nothing made sense to me in Pupa.

Eiken was an OVA that I thought was plain horrible.

I've only given a score of 1 to shitty animation that not only didn't make sense, but also had obnoxiously disgusting visuals. Most notable examples would be Shitcom, Shigeru, Mochibei, Nami, and even Aki no Puzzle. Why are these in MAL anyway?

I didn't thought it really matters so I gave a 6 to some animes.

Then once in awhile I go ahead and give a 10 to others just because.

1. There are quite a few series around that are very bad and boring at the same time, yet aren't bad enough to a hilarious extent.
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.

A 1/10 to 'Corpse Party' and a 1/10 to "listen to me girls, I'm your father" ending OVA. Corpse Party rubbed me the wrong way in the first couple of seconds. "listen to me girls, I'm your father" ending was nothing but pure trolling.

3, and that's to very short things. I haven't found anything disastrous enough longer than 5 minutes that would warrant a lower score.

People dont watch stuff that averages below 7.0 because they know there are a lot of people like you who hand out scores higher than a show deserves.

I gave 1 to all the Seitokai Yakuindomo series(I watched them all because I have a no drop policy and when I start something I have to finish it). The anime doesn't have a plot, there's useless drama, the characters are boring and the dirty jokes(which is what the show revolves all on) are depressing. Watching this was a torture for my braincells

I haven't rated lower than 3, because anything worse than that would get dropped before I'd finish even the first episode, so I can't really list it.

I gave 1's to a good amount of shows I watched. All of them were

1) Shit overall
2) Don't like any characters and/or hate main characters
3) Terrible story, concept, and/or plot
4) Bored me to death
5) Makes me want to gouge out my eyes and/or ears
6) Full of cringe

or Combo of the above

I've only given three anime a 1, and it's simply due to there being nothing for me to like. I don't really give these out leisurely because I found that even some anime considered the worst would have something of value, whether it be good animation or music, or even just unintentional hilarity.

If I could give one of those anime something lower than a 1, it'd be Gakuentoshi Varanoir Joukan, the worst anime I've ever seen, and I'm convince it's the worst anime ever made (that isn't just some three minute web anime.) It somehow looks visually worse than even Mars of Destruction and Skelter Heaven, and is twice the length. Hell, some of it's visuals are nightmarish, unintentionally so. It's more annoying with terrible voice work and irritating characters who just won't shut up, and has some of the worst, most half-assed jokes I've seen in an anime. It even has a shitty cliffhanger ending. It's not even a "so bad it's good" kind of bad anime, it's soul-draining, and you feel yourself getting dumber with ever passing second.

Without counting anime shorts like Utsu Musume Sayuri, the lowest score I gave to an anime was a 2 for Chaos Dragon, Big Order and Blade and Soul. Those three didn't had any reedeming quality (except maybe being a bit hilarious... I guess) who could make me gave them a higher score than a 2.
In Blade and Soul case, is the only anime I felt I wasted time watching it out of all the animes I have finished in my life.

uhhh I gave both Bloodivores and Hand Shakers a 2/10 so I would say that's the lowest I've gone so far. However the more i explore with anime the more terrible anime I might find. So one day I'll probably end up giving an anime a 1

Why I gave them those scores?
Well... Bloodivores was an extremely painful anime to watch, and not in a good way. The animation fell apart through episode 2, there was horrible censoring, nothing made sense, all the characters were fucking stupid. It tried to be extremely edgy and it failed so soz

Hand Shakers was also a mess. That's all I have to say. Had some expectations for it but then episode 1 happened, so I mean??

Normally, I do not give an anime score beyond "4 - Bad". Because I can't be bothered measuring degrees of bad, and because even such shows have their good sides.
But Angel Core is so soul-crushing that I went out of my way to give it 3.
I'm pretty sure people who gave it 10/10 must have done it to look super-edgy, not because they have actually watched the stuff.
