How do I rate anime?

  • 10 - Near Perfection It is my belief that true perfection doesn't exist but usually when I rate something this high I think that is close to what I think perfection might be.
  • 9 - Amazing There may something keeping it from what it could be but shows with this rating are nearly flawless and get much due praise.
  • 8 - Great It may not be the best thing I've ever seen but it is certainly worth the time I spend watching it.
  • 7 - Good It is above the standard fare but not much sets it apart from other anime I've seen.
  • 6 - Above Average There is something here that makes it stand amongst the herd but not enough to make it truly special.
  • 5 - Average There is nothing particular too special about this show. Everything that was done here has been done elsewhere and probably better. This is simply a sheep amongst the herd.
  • 4 - Below Average There a few things good things to say about this show. This isn't even trying to grab for my attention. I definitely wouldn't be in a rush to watch it again.
  • 3 - Mediorce It begs the question why was the even made? Show like these are usually there to make a quick buck and nothing else. They didn't even attempt at making something competent. More than anything else, these shows are huge waste of my time.
  • 2 - Awful The show is in a league of it own and certainly not in the good way. These shows often are laughably bad.
  • 1 - Irredeemable Why? Just why? If a show were ever this terrible then why even bother the people who made it obviously didn't. Why do I rate things the way I do?
    • I rate newer shows but most of time they are gut reaction and fluctuate over time. Usually only after the show is over is when the ratings will hold more weight. This is because I had time to actually think about the anime as a whole.
    • The highest rated anime on my list may not always be my favorite anime. Ultimately it comes down to whether I enjoy one anime or the other.
    • It should be noted that rarely rate things under a four as I haven't since that many anime that I think are that terrible. As with everything ninety percent of it will be crap, so I generally try to avoid that other ten percent.
    • I usually have a quick comment about my overall general thoughts on a particular show in my tags. If you want to know my full thoughts feel free to ask.
    • I always try to find the best of something even when it otherwise doesn't deserve it. So even if I do watch a truly bad anime I would at least attempt to find something good about it.
