No.2028
Honestly I really don't have any preference. Do all of them?
Well, actually, I've been meaning to try that Birdy one...
No.2029
>>2028Oh huh, the only other vote was for Birdy. That's weird.
No.2033
>>2032>anidbHuh? I thought it was Anilist that had MALshitters, not anidb. Anidb looks so old you'd think it would be a filter to those types.
No.2034
>>2032about the insanity I expected.
The shows are rated lower on MAL because the demographic(who likes these things) is older and rates things on a more critical scale than the younger crowd gives most things a 10/10 because they don't have as much knowledge of media
No.2036
>>2034Not true. Fanbase wars are very common on those places. Just read their forums and you'll know what I'm talking about. The battle shonen tards downvote (modern) moe-focused shows for example.
No.2037
>>2035Hmm. It's odd since Anilist also seems to have those kinds of people on it as well, which is why I stopped using it. There's people who alternate between it and MAL. I think anime ""review"" sites end up having shit userbases regardless.
No.2038
>>2036I posted and read MAL for like a year in some period after 2012. I didn't notice any of this. I did notice however that there were a lot of people who give everything 10s and then the more hardcore fans are regularly giving things like 5
No.2039
>>2031>why is barely anyone voting?In my case because I'm not completely sure I can be there (depends on the date/time), and I would feel bad about breaking a tie when the majority who show up might have preferred another show. I don't have a strong preference either way. These OVAs are all fun.
>>2034>>2036This is why I always ignore aggregate ratings. Just glance at an anime's top reviews, dismiss the ones with a 1 or a 10, dismiss reviewers with battle shounen profile pics or a username/pic of the show being reviewed (fanboys), and read the reviews that remain. That usually gives a much more accurate impression.
No.2040
>>2038I saw a guy there that fit your description indeed, but he also gave 9s and 10s to older shows/movies that the typical MAL shitter wouldn't.
No.2041
>>2040what are you even ranting about
No.2047
>>2042Nobody's score is "reliable". All it reflects is the opinion of the person/people the score came from. At best, it's a semi-okay heuristic for whether or not you should purchase a thing, but there's better ways to find if something will interest you, and nobody here actually buys anime so it doesn't matter anyway.
No.2049
>>2031>So why is barely anyone voting?You should give it some time, but also a lot of people simply don't vote because they're fine with anything because the fun part is to watch things with others.
Though, I would point out that a thread getting angry at people and calling them tards and shitters is less likely to inspire voting as well.
No.2050
>>2049I dunno. It looks like it helped. There were only two votes before I started ranting about 'review site' scores.
I sure hope the average kissu user isn't like the average MAL user. They would avoid an older show simply because it's 'dated'. Being like Otaking is bad, but being like that is too.
No.2051
I've seen Iria, CCO808, VGA, Gunbuster, Megazone, before but they were all quite good oldies so I wouldn't remind a rewatch even.
No.2053
