I am an amateur anime reviewer, as well as an animation enthusiast. I currently work as a writer for Anime Maru. I also like to do makeshift TV ratings for the anime I watch. I started watching anime on Toonami and Adult Swim when I was younger, and now I am a huge fan of the medium. I used to partake in writing for the now defunct Toonami United. I make videos analyzing anime now on YouTube.
As far as my scoring goes, I just follow MAL's rankings. There's a math to how I score things, but I won't get into it here. I used to score based on how much I liked a show; however, it grew to be a pain ranking my tops based on scores. So, some shows may have high scores, but I might not like them as much as shows I have given lower scores to. Keep that in mind.

I have a rough life almost every day lol, and you're fine i'm not offended I just don't think that we're going to change each others' minds. It's not that I don't understand you and i'm sure you understand me to an extent but we just don't agree on it so I feel that we may just have to agree to disagree.
I'm allowed to have a problem with something and have my own opinion on it. It had nothing to do with you, you stuck your head into my comment about it man lol
Can I then say that as an anime and without any bias to the game, that i feel that it's poorly written and executed in many ways than one and that I don't like it?
It's a lazy, unpolished, and poorly directed anime. There is nothing about it that appeals to newcomers or that has really appealed to fans either so it has almost no purpose than to be sold as a promotion of the game. The all out attacks in my opinion have only gotten worse, for the poorly animated first one, and then ann's which was missing an entire frame and the main sound effect with an awkward build up, and the third one which just rips the background straight from the game and reuses the animation from the first all out attack by ren in episode 2 and adds a delayed sound effect. I understand what you're saying but sometimes these things boil down to pure laziness. Having to wait for a Blu-Ray release is isn't something I would do when i don't enjoy what there is anyway, I don't want to waste my time on an anime series that only upsets me
I understand it can't be perfect and it doesn't need to be in the first place, but disregarding how rushed they were and whatever anything else is, the actual direction of the series and the way they decide to do certain scenes blows my mind with how awkward and random they seem. It feels to me like Ishihama never played or saw much of the game at all.
That's unfortunate but when they're having to condense a 90+ hour game and they can't capture the essence of the game or the characters but instead make them seem like underdeveloped idiots, maybe they shouldn't have adapted it if that's all they had to work with.. I've beaten the game 4 times and for as much as it means to me the anime disappoints me greatly. I can be understanding but it doesn't make it any better of an anime when so many other anime with busier work schedules and smaller budgets make something good out of it
I can see some Genocyber as well. That name thing is pretty weird. I doubt we'll ever figure out why that is, but it's fun piecing together everything he worked on. Also, he wrote on LOVE HINA WTF?!
Speaking of uber-violent anime, you just completed Shoujo Tsubaki; isn't that the anime that one guy made because he couldn't get a studio to do it?
