| I personally like the first season much more, a lot of the arcs in s2 tried to take things seriously and i think it failed to deliver. The last few episodes against the big leader guy and his army was basically a disappointment except for animation. |
 |
| in my opinion it was an improvement. i liked the first season, unique artstyle & well animated + good humour. i didn't expect this season to shift the mood so much but i loved how well they executed it. it felt really meaningful and i think they delivered extremely well |

If you cannot back up such an ambitious claim with proper empirical or logical evidence, then you're simply forcibly pushing your own opinion upon others. Mob fandom doesn't care about proper empirical or logical evidence when it comes to "AOTD" this and ">>>OPM" that. Plus, the guy is not forcing anything, he is just questioning the quality of the show and explaining why. Of course individuals generally don't care about matters of a larger scale, but they do perceive when somebody tries to sell his opinion in an obnoxious manner. Calling something "overrated" easily and persistently irritates people precisely because it carries a different connotation from wording a simple opinion. Had the OP posted this discussion thread with something like "I don't really like Mob Psycho, because...", he wouldn't have received nearly as much backlash. On the other hand, there are already existing platforms for anime-watchers to voice their opinions about the show, such as the reviews section, the final episode discussion thread, or the dozens of other "overrated" threads on the forum of every popular series. Creating a new post just to throw out a two-sentence statement is just attention-seeking coupled with lazy thinking and writing. The burden of proof lies in the OP, and they are expected to at least make an effort to substantiate their case - this applies not only to academic forums but every form of discussion that desires to be worth reading. I would go as far as to call these half-assed "overrated" threads scattered across the internet a case of social media abuse. |

| The first 4-5 episodes of S1 were dull as dishwater, but the remainder of the season and S2 have been great. Not over-rated or under-rated in my opinion. Receives the praise that it's due. The animation art style isn't my cup of tea as it's quite unique, but I can still appreciate an engaging storyline, some awesome battles and solid character development. |

I suppose I just had a bit of extra fucks to give that day to hand around some rationality on the internet, though I did acknowledge the rampant shitposting about every anime forum in my followup. Quite frankly, the crux of my rant wasn't really the lack of logic or empiricism, but the complete absence of effort OP gave to the discussion. Four years of Trump tweets congesting my newsfeed has really ticked me off to the lackadaisical hate-mongering I'm seeing everywhere. |

| (SPOILERS) Ah yes, another trash discussion. Mob Psycho is a masterpiece, no argument. Season 2 is just straight up beautiful and Episode 7 made me cry harder than any anime that i have ever watched |

| Oh shit here we go again... How many overrated discussions exists now. Just because you personally don't enjoy a show as much as the majority of people dosen't make it less rated. Have people these days completely forgot the definition of "overrated and underrated". |

| I love Mob Psycho, but while it is an inarguably well executed show, I do think it's a bit overrated. I'd have expected it to be around the lower end of the top 100. You don't have to hate a show to think it's overrated. Just that comparing it to other shows with a similar score, it seems too high up... maybe? Or should I re-watch this? Anyways based on what I remembered, after I finished the show, I was really surprised at how high the ranking was. Don't get me wrong though, it was a really good anime. |
| Overrated is a dumb word and you should be ashamed when using that on very popular anime like AoT or Mob psycho 100(barely this lol) |
