What is an anime that is scored way too highly by the MAL userbase to the point of it being baffling?

My pick is Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (2009). It is somehow a whopping 7.23 yet it doesn't deserve anything over a 6.00 (I'm being generous because I know hardcore Haruhi fans will give it a 10/10 regardless) with its pointless repetitive episodes. It's been like 11 years and I still have PTSD from KyoAni's tone deaf trolling.

Also, if anyone is just going to post anime from MAL's top 10, that is lazy imo and I know you can do better.

Kimetsu no Yaiba is a 7, even though it's rated 8.62.

I would give an 8 to the second season and so on, but first season really wasn't that amazing or mindblowing to get above a 7.

Might be unpopular but "I want to eat your pancreas" would be my answer. If I didn't know the score beforehand, I would have never guessed that it was in the 8.50s-8.60s range.

It deserves to be an 8 tbh. Great animation, great music, good characters (except for Zenitsu imo) and a decent plot that will be further expanded on in S2.

Attack On Titan is way too high, but of course there are a lot of AOT fans in the world so I guess it's inevitable that it be rated so high

Kaguya Hime is the worst Ghibli film I've seen and is just outright boring. I figure it should be a mid 7.

I rated Haruhi S2 8/10, but I consider the middle episodes of Endless Eight as fillers/recaps (= you can skip them, if they really bother you).

Anime rated way too high on MAL? Most of the ones that are rated much lower on RedditAnimeList: Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, Shigatsu, Code Geass, Horimiya

Not really.
Great animation, sure. Great soundtrack yes, but the OP/ED are not memorable in any way.
Good characters? They're all cliched and generic, I'm not sure if I can call them good.
The plot? The plot is good, I won't disagree, but it gets much better after S1, the Mugen train arc, and everything after that is a solid 8.
The ending of the manga is rushed, but I still have the manga rated 8.
It's just S1 that I don't think is above a 7.

FMAB and FMA, it's so childish, the comedy destories the whole show.
Can't understand why people is taking a liking in this show.

Well, I have the same problem with JoJo so.
