hi stalker. 99% lurker. anti-social :(

Personal Recommendations:

Action - Jujutsu Kaisen, Mob Psycho 100
Adventure/Fantasy - Made In Abyss, Hunter x Hunter
Comedy - Bocchi the Rock!, Girlfriend, Girlfriend
Drama - Vinland Saga, Your Lie in April
Romance - Rascal Does Not Dream Series
Sci-Fi/Mystery - Psycho-Pass, Link Click
Slice of Life - Skip and Loafer, Hinamatsuri
Sports - Ao Ashi, Haikyuu!!

Scoring Criteria: Obviously subjective, especially Comedy. Nothing is perfect.

10 - Left a lasting impression from outstanding execution on specific elements. Where it shines can easily overlook its few flaws.
9 - Gold standard of its genre. Time of release considered. Very enjoyable with consistent writing.
8 - It's good. Some stuff to complain about, but not much.
7 - Barely good enough to recommend. Enjoyable, but have flaws too significant to ignore entirely.
6 - Just fine. Mostly still enjoyable. Not good enough to recommend, not bad enough to dislike.
5 - Average. Generic. Forgettable. Probably not enjoyable.
4 - Disappointing. The good doesn't outweigh the bad. Either tries to do too much and missed in execution, has too much questionable/forced writing and plot convenience (wrapping things up poorly), or is just a letdown sequel with a drastic decline in quality. There are also shows where a good chunk of it is shamelessly lazy but those are rare (Isekai Cheat Skill/Liar Liar/Summoned to Another World for a Second Time).
Dropped - No opinion. Just wasn't enjoying it at the time.

Given most shows hover in the 6-8 range, I don't want to be overly harsh on negative aspects to rate lower than a 4 when it's already a low score and further tank averages down.
