I just think it's funny how after almost 2 years someone decided to make 600-700 accounts to upvote the positive reviews. Guess not everyone can handle people disliking their favorite anime. Anyways cheers to the reviewers who got their reviews on the front page.

MAL is never gonna be able to do anything about it properly. With individual rating bots, it is much easier to handle. However, with upvote bots for reviews, I guess it’s hard for them to trace and track them down because anyone can just press “Helpful” on a whim.

As for the show itself in question, it’s fine....s1 at least, imo.

I guess I can't really say much because I'm one of those reviewers but I did find it odd that my review which had been sitting at 36 upvotes for nearly 2 years suddenly shot up to 699 upvotes within a month. It had to be someone thinking "MUST MAKE SURE PEOPLE KNOW THIS IS BEST ANIME EVAR!" and vote up anything that is a 10, case and point. I mean I love The Promised Neverland and it's one of my top 5 favourite anime but you ain't seeing me going to every forum going, "YOU MUST LIKE THIS SHOW YOU UNCULTURED SWINE!" That would just make me come across as an obnoxious d*ck.

Haha, just realized this happened. Well, there goes my top 4 review on the show lol.

It's funny and I'm happy for the people in the top now. But it just goes to show yet again how broken the MAL review system is. Oh well, we're just reviewing for fun anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

But hey, Mr. Bot-San! I gave the show an 8 you know? Isn't that high enough to gift me 700 helpfuls too!?!?!? XD

Lol the same thing happened with me and my SAO Alicization WoU 2 review. Some crazy fans went on a rampage. It sucks for the other reviewers but it is what it is until MAL begins to recognize it's a problem.

LMAO when I saw that they didn't upvote your review I was though the same thing. Bot-san didn't even touch it, guess it's all or nothing.

Yeah but isn't it still a hip thing to s**t of SAO XD. You're basically letting the floodgates open for it to happen. But like you said, it is what it is.

Bot-san doesn't respect you like I do. Wish I could give them a stern talking to.

Mass botting to force an agenda is cringe no matter what. The day Promised Neverland ended, the negative/mixed reviews were upvoted by bots (about 300 helpfuls) then all of the accounts got deleted. I don't know why the mods prioritized fixing the issue two years ago--yet they don't seem to care today.

Nah, we shouldn't really do something illegitimate, even as a person that doesn't like Re:Zero.

Using alt accounts to force an agenda? That is seriously pathetic bro, no way people do that :S
