My favourite anime 3x3:
(actually a 3x4 but don't worry about it) (as of April 24, 2018)
——————————
I am but a simple farmer tending to my animes. You can call me Nix.
I only really got into anime in 2017, I did watch stuff like Naruto and Fairy Tail before that, but I never really got into the nitty-gritty. Watching Bleach in early 2017 got me back into the flow, but I still haven't watched a lot of stuff yet, hence my relatively gigantic plan-to-watch list. [insert popular anime here] isn't on it because im a contrarian haha
I started off as a shounen fan and wouldn't have even dreamt of picking up something like a SoL or romance series, but as it stands right now, I think I don't really have a preferred genre. Shounen still holds a special place in my heart, but I think what I appreciate most about a show is interesting character writing and character interactions, regardless of what genre it may be.
When it comes to my ratings of long-running shounen anime, I don't account for filler within the ratings. After all, I can't rate something I didn't watch.
I rate almost everything that I'm done watching (with a few exceptions, such as music videos and recap episodes) - that includes dropped series, since I don't tend to finish stuff I don't like, and I don't wanna have an anime list full of highly-rated stuff.
I don't tend to write full reviews, rather I put mini-reviews within the tags of the given anime in my list. Mouseover an anime to see tags in my fancy pants layout. If you're on mobile, you're probably shit outta luck though.
If my tags are in proper sentence case, they're serious opinions. if theyre in lowercase and without proper punctuation like this then theyre more just for fun and snark. pretty much every anime on my plan to watch list is tagged this way so give me validation and read them
If I have an anime on my Watching list with no completed episodes, it means that anime is very high on my priority list and I will most likely get to watching it soon.
Regarding my favourites list: If a show has multiple seasons, I list the season I enjoyed the most. Its position on the list, however, is more or less meant to represent how much I enjoyed the show as a whole, that is, all of its seasons.
I will always keep Heiwajima Shizuo on my list of favourite characters, not necessarily because I like him that much, but more to represent how much I hate Orihara Izaya. I mean, I do actually like Shizuo as a character. A lot, actually, he's a really great guy, but the point here is that Izaya is my most hated anime character. I just have to convey that somehow, so putting Shizuo on my favourites list serves as a bit of a middle finger to him.
My avatar is the protagonist of a Czech kids' cartoon, Krtek, aka the Little Mole. Basically my childhood. I change my Krtek in accordance with the current anime season.

I had no issues with this at all, or close to none. Any tiny imperfections this might have are drowned out by how perfect everything else is. Probably speaks to me on a deeper level and sticks in my mind for months after watching. These series are masterpieces in my mind, ones that I'm able to recommend to essentially anyone and that I'd be happy to revisit at any point in time. - 9 -
Had some minor issues issues thanks to which I couldn't justify calling it "perfect" or a "masterpiece", and/or it just didn't quite have the same level of profound impact and poignancy that a 10 would've had. All that being said, it still left a fantastic impression on me and was all-in-all a thoroughly enjoyable experience. I would recommend these without a second thought and even though I'm not generally much of a rewatcher, I most definitely wouldn't mind going back to them every once in a while. - 8 -
Greatly enjoyable. Probably left a relatively lasting impression on me, though not really anything as profound as a 9 or 10 would. It's possible that it tried to, but just didn't realize its intent to its fullest potential. It's also possible that it had a few noticeable issues that bugged me throughout. With all that in mind, however... I still greatly enjoyed this series. It was a worthwhile experience that I'm happy to recommend and, on the off chance, even rewatch. - 7 -
An alright piece of media all things considered. It either didn't do anything out of the ordinary (but what it did do, it did well), or maybe it tried to, but it still ended up having its fair share of problems, although all these shortcomings can be overlooked with the right attitude. I probably wouldn't rewatch this, but I still liked it for what it was. - 6 -
I would call this good, but just barely. The problems with it were quite apparent, and/or I probably got nothing out of watching it, other than a mild amount of momentary enjoyment. But I don't regret doing so; it wasn't a bad experience per se. At this point though, I probably wouldn't recommend it. There are better things to spend your time on. - 5 -
Average. Not bad, not good. This show is either inoffensively mediocre with not much to it, or it has a lot going for it, but the good and bad balance each other out leading to a messy and lukewarm result. ------- I will generally drop all the series I rate below 5 ------- - 4 -
Not really enjoyable. I'd refer to it more as underwhelming than bad. Not terrible and not of no value, but I still didn't enjoy it for one reason or another. It may have just failed to strike a chord with me personally, or something just didn't click; either way, I can, to a degree, understand why people like this. Not for me, though. - 3 -
This is bad. It probably has some potential and perhaps a nice premise, visuals, or sound, but fails to deliver on it and just falls flat. Few redeemable qualities, maybe some nice moments, but overall definitely not an enjoyable ride, either deeply boring or with numerous inexcusable flaws in its execution. - 2 -
This is not only bad, this is straight up terrible; a thoroughly, profoundly unenjoyable experience. May have hints of something good in it, but that's all ultimately buried under how crappy the rest is. - 1 -
A special kind of bad. Not necessarily because of inept execution, writing, pacing, or technical issues, but moreso for what it represents, what intent it was made with. Something like Black Clover doesn't belong here, since, terrible as it is, it's at least a passion project of the manga author. He put his best into it, even if his best is completely subpar. Something like FLCL doesn't belong here, because, as much as I disliked nearly everything about it, it still had passion and artistic vision put into it. Fate/fuckin' Extra doesn't belong here, because for how absolutely abysmal its first episode was and how much I hate Red Saber and everything to do with her, the same still applies as mentioned above. But, as I said, the intent is what counts, so a 1 is something with none of that good will and earnest effort put into it. A 1 is something so completely soulless and pedestrian, so completely devoid of any substance, artistic vision, and passion for the craft, so shamelessly pandering, that it would be more fulfilling to watch paint dry on the wall than to watch this. God help me if I've watched more than one episode of this show.
Also, a note that I shamelessly stole from my pal gensogrips: While I'm trying to be somewhat critical, my ratings can be and are swayed by emotional impact. That hopefully explains some high scores. Rating with your brain is important, but don't forget your heart.
got a lot of high ratings, that's not because i have low standards, it's just because i watch good shows and not seasonal shit :D
Counting every anime as part of the season in which it began airing. Additionally, only anime that I rated 8 and above count.

Maybe I'll say it when something really, really, REALLY pisses me off. It has to be worse than witnessing the Alfheim arc in all of its glory, and I don't think it has happened yet.
Just a fyi, Urobuchi is not the one who made the Fate series. That was Kinoku Nasu. Urobuchi DID do Fate Zero though. Just saying this because I saw your review on the Emiya cooking whatever
Ousama Game is a high school death game made by a hentai studio and involves a plot where, most of the time, the kids have to engage in sexual activites or get hanged.
Take that as you will.

Take that as you will.
So you're watching Gintama that's great.
Well let me give you an advice.
Just for the information.
The first Episodes and the following first Episodes can be quite average.
I know that it can be for many people. So maybe for you as well.
But it will improve a lot afterwards.
So I hope you will keep on watching Gintama.
