I am only giving 10s to my favorites. It's just that there's many anime I consider to be my favorites.

Here is the thing. A show to give 10/10 means that it's a show that I really enjoy, more then the 9's and the 8's I give out. I rate mostly on enjoyment, but other factors do include in my scores, but there is just SO MUCH GOOD ANIME OUT THERE.

If you have an optimistic attitude to watching anime (which I do), you'll enjoy it more then if you are actively out there trying to find plot holes and lack of character development, etc. Sometimes those things are noticeable, that's why I give shows lower ratings (like 9's or 8's), but in the end, anime is amazing.

10/10 is the best anime for me that it touched me personally and really, really enjoyed my time watching it. I have given a lot of 7s, a few 8s and a 9s here and there but there is only one anime that i have given a 10/10 and its Kimi no Na Wa (Your Name).

There's only 10 ratings so there's naturaly going to be decent variation within each rating. There's a big difference between my favourite and a low end 10 but I still think they deserve a 10 and changing anything would sacrifice accuracy elsewhere.

I personally can't fathom the idea of giving anime other than my absolute favorites 10s. Shouldn't 10/10 your ultimate standard?
Because why would I rate anime a 9 if it deserves a 10?

This statement and your profile don't exactly match up, you made it sound like a show you enjoyed was good enough to get a 10.

Spamming the 10 bucket is like giving every kid in the class an A. It does a disservice to the best ones.

There are 10 rating buckets and you are unnecessarily constraining yourself if you dont use utilise all of them.

Because I just happen to like lots of anime quite a bit. And a score of 10 is the only thing I could give them if I just fell in love with them. For me it was never the score that I give few and far between.

I rate the animes that I personally love and enjoyed all the way a 10/10. If the opening/ending is a banger, made me love the characters, and made me feel something that other animes can't.

I have written my thoughts on this topic in my Profile under "Ratings". Essentially, I think MALs linguistic classification of anime means that people end up only using 5-6 buckets when they should use all 10. Part of the problem is that the jump from "Average" to "Bad" is just one bucket. Good is too high up as well. If they named a 2 lets say, as Bad; then that might encourage people to differentiate a bit more. I personally have a hard time dropping 600 titles into 5-6 buckets, even 10 is still a bit coarse in my opinion but it helped when I did so.

If I watched 600 shows (500 or so being full length series) then perhaps I would have more bad shows mixed in as well, but I'm not picking shows out of a hat, I watch things that are higher rated, and that I am likely to personally enjoy. That's why my average is around a 7, because the average show I watch is "good". There's probably a huge difference between me and someone who just watches every seasonal show.

Thats fair enough. I went on mission to watch the top 250 of MAL (+ many others) and so I have plenty of animes that I would consider legitimately bad mixed in. I also dont drop, so thats another factor. Still my point is the same - regardless of how one internally justifies not utilising the full 10 point scale is incidental to the fact that it isnt being used. One step towards freeing myself from the self imposed constraint in my mind was to abandon the linguistic descriptions that MAL suggests for each bucket.

They either don't know the real meaning of a 10/10 score, or they simply never had an experience that we could consider "life changing" with anime. But it's a shame no matter what.

I don't give out 10s that easily but 8 and 9s are pretty common from me. The simple fact is that I watch Anime for enjoyment more than anything. If I enjoyed it well enough and I didn't feel it had grating issues then I give it an easy 7-8 at the least.

For me, anything below a 7 is harsh criticism and I'm pretty generous lol An Anime would have to be mind numbing or rage-inducing bad in some aspects for me to have the guts to put that rating on it.

i'd say i give a 9 to a show i really enjoyed and 10 to shows that made me really care for the characters or made me feel certain feelings, for example for hunter x hunter while the whole anime is like a 9 the cimera ant made me feel genuine concern for gon and kilua and i guess some kind of fear feeling that i really didn't know how are they going to win or get out of the whole situation.

If we're being technical, I score 10's every 23 animes which is pretty often. I have 5 10's and have watched 115 anime including sequels.

The thing is, not all my favourites are 10's.

Favourites for me are anime's that I really enjoyed and are memorable, but 10's are anime's that actually impacted me.

I gave up on character of the week since it takes too much thinking. I'll just change my forum pfp to whoever I want every week lol.

I tend to give it to something that I both really enjoyed and consider to be objectively great, or they are my childhood favorite shows and have a special place in my heart. It has to be something I would gladly rewatch and usually something I don't have too many issues with. However it's not something that special for me I've seen like 180 series and I gave like 14 10/10s

No, not me. I believe that a 10 is simply the anime I think is the best. And it doesn't necessarily mean that it is without flaws. It just means that it is better than the rest.

I'm not a critic nor a pro weeb or smth like that. I WANT to enjoy anime, so I'm not searching the bad parts nor the plot holes whenever I'm watching anime. That's why i give 10's so easily.

The fake is of far greater value. In its deliberate attempt to be real, it's more real than the real thing.

I don't think having a particular score distribution means that one is trolling. There are multiple reasons why one might have an unusual score distribution:

- Maybe I only list the shows on MAL that I either really loved or hated.
- Maybe I have a different scoring system than the one that most people use.
- Maybe I just have really unusual tastes.

And so on.

I agree that his insults were uncalled for though.

Well, I am EXACTLY like you in this. I don't criticize anime for superficial things that self-proclaimed critics on this site do. But still, a matter of "10/10" is beyond the case of a show that can be simply labeled as "a good show", to me.
