No Idea, I just finished the second episode and I enjoyed every single second of it. A Series that at least seems that well created and thought out comes rarely and is simply a bliss.

Maybe but the problem is not many people will accept that age-gap relationship subject so yeah they will try to avoid it anyway.

Totally agree. I read the synopsis and thought this anime wasn't for me, but I watched the first episode anyways and ended up really liking it. More people need to give this anime a try before deciding not to watch it.

To be honest, I thought this was going to be a well thought , well-written story,right from the get go, which would tackle age gap topic which is, as you probably know, sensitive and very controversial, but so far... it hasn't been that great. Not to mention that one thing this show didn't need...is another Asta from Black Clover :/

Popularity is a negative social construct that does have correlation to quality of art but usually is merely the trend of grey mass. It does not deserve any popularity. All it deserves is an appreciation of quality it is worth for. M'kay??

The premise may be not everyones cup of tea.

Also, currently it's ranked 9th by popularity this season,not that bad. And shows with higher scores like this gain usually more attention once the season is coming to an end.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

I don't think it need any more than it already has.

Look at Made in Abyss, both manga and anime are very good but what happened after anime was realeased ? there was flood of "its overrated" reactions acros the whole internet, for no reason. I dont want the same for this one.

Just keep it down and thats good, can't care less about popularity. Leave popularity for CR popularity polls, thats where it belongs.

"Why are they watching crappy anime when this anime exists"
Because people have different tastes in anime, thats why~

Tf does that mean? She's a teenager. It's not considered pedophilia.

As mentioned above, it's not everyone's cup of tea. I personally don't enjoy it a lot, I just find it fine or mediocre.

If this was really about the love between a 40+ year old man and a teenage girl, I would have found this creepy asf. But the thing I'm enjoying so far is the fact that Kondou is trying to get Tachibana to change her mind and doing it in a nice way.

My problem is that I don't find the characters interesting at all. If I did then I would have probably would have rated this higher than a 6/10, which is not even bad. The visuals are fantastic I must say

Yeah I'm sure this anime should get more attention. Cause the grafic,mucis, story building, character and anything in this anime is really completely wonderful.

Anyway I suprised when I saw the rating... IT JUST 7,82!!! It doesn't deserve that. It must be 8,00 above surely

It definitely should be more popular. It's much better than Violet Overrated.

Should make a bot that will input it whenever YET ANOTHER of this thread is hosted...
"Popularity is a social construct that does not neither anyhow impact the value of art nor define the art as valuable." What do they teach during literature classes now? Prominent authors? Schools lack philosophy greatly.

Personally I think it's overrated. The development was so painfully slow I ended up watching the last 4 or 5 episodes at a x1.5 speed. Endless scenes of the MCs ankles, shoes, coffee, key ring, pink bubbles, what a load of bull! And flashbacks from the same episode, rly? That was the next best thing to fill 23min with, flashbacks from 6min ago?!
The story is so-so but the way the anime is made is what I'd call crappy

First half was pretty good with funny, cute and awkward moments. Second half is really boring and was difficult to sit through honestly. I think people tend to be much too generous towards this show and think it's good because it "subverts expectations". No, no it doesn't. It did exactly what I expected it to do.

I’m surprised too guych, this is my favorite series after Steins;Gate and Barakamon and it’s definitely on their level. In the process of rewatching it now, the music and art are great as is the story, but I suspect the ending is polarizing: people either love it or hate it because it didn’t go in *that* kind of direction. Deserves a higher ranking.

So I recently recommend to a friend of mine and I came across this discussion in the forum. Here is my opinion for why it is not as “popular”. (I am judging this based on anime only)
On the surface, After the Rain looks like a romance story where a teen girl fall in love with a older man. This will of course turn off many viewers already.
Then for the romantics, the ending will of course disappoint them.
However, you shouldn’t watch it from a romance perspective, but from a coming-of-age narrative (similar to Honey and Clover for those who watched it). Why did Kondou give up on his dream of becoming a writer? Why did Tachibana give up on running even though she had recovered? That is why one of the highlights to me was episode 8 where Tachibana was answering questions on Rashomon. “What did you think of the servant actions?”
