My rating system loosely follows a
Normal Distribution with Mean = 5, X = 1,2,...,10, Standard Deviation = 1.8. My scores correspond to a percentile, with 5 being average = 50th percentile. To determine exact scores, I use a weighted average based on my personal taste: (.30*characters)+(.20*story)+(.15*art)+(.15*sound)+(.15*enjoyment)+(.05*historical value). As always, scores are subjective.
10 (SS-tier)(99.7%) -
Masterpiece. Among the very best of all time. Strong in every category, with deep, powerful themes, and singular artistic vision.
9 (S-tier)(98.7%) -
Elite. Superb presentation with very strong themes. It may have a couple minor flaws, but is otherwise head and shoulders above almost everything else.
8 (A-tier)(95%) -
Excellent. High quality in most aspects. Handles themes deftly, efficiently, and with memorable flair. Few flaws.
7 (B-tier)(87%) -
Very good. Solid structure with memorable characters and/or story. May be missing one or two key pieces. May have some inconsistency in quality.
6 (C-tier)(71%) -
Good. Above average material that leaves at least a passing impression on the viewer. Usually lacking in one major area.
5 (D-tier)(50%) -
Satisfactory. It does an adequate job exploring the premise, but is otherwise unremarkable. This score is also reserved for anime that were strong in one category but very weak in another.
4 (E-tier)(29%) -
Mediocre. Has a few redeeming qualities--often high production values at the expense of writing or solid story structure. May have played it too safe or too ambitious.
3 (F-tier)(13%) -
Inadequate. Far below average. Likely sub-par in most categories, especially lacking in empathetic characters and/or logical plot progression. Has few redeeming qualities.
2 (G-tier)(5%) -
Bad. Painful to watch. Has at most 1 redeeming quality. Can make fun of it at the expense of your sanity.
1 (H-tier)(1%) -
Failure. Mind-bleach. Terrible in almost all aspects and fails to deliver in any meaningful or entertaining way.
