The low ratings being assigned are dragging down its overall score. I’m not here to question other people’s ratings, but this is clearly unusual. Even shows with a 6 average don’t get this many 1.
I’m not seeing anything similar happening with other popular anime.
Isn’t the MAL staff going to do anything about it?"

They can't look at an anime that isn't shonen at the top?

Nah if those were counted then the score would be much lower. You can calculate it yourself. They already implemented a system that is doing it's job in the background. Maybe some of the one spams get by if its not a brand new account, but yea it would be much lower if all those were counted. It would be another thing if it was being actually brigaded.

yes there are a lot of haters. But complaining about this doesn't make it better. Every post whining about some scores only polarizes the community and resulting in more haters. Just accept that those ratings mean nothing as long as you are enjoying the series.

Uh-huh... literally who cares??

All anime that gain massive popularity go thru this while they're airing, what never seen anything similar? We saw it with AOT, we saw it with Oshi, we saw it with Frieren

That % goes down once it finishes airing and more people rate it (cuz not everyone rates while watching), the binge-watchers join in, and the trolls move on to the next popular seasonal

It's a pretty normal thing on the website, if you go look at the stats of top shows they all have a big deal of 1 ratings from people who partake in the pointless rating war to get top spots on the site.

If you are just discovering it now, just move on, don't get dragged into it trying to fight for your favourite show and creating threads is what led to this anyways specially when FMA:B was vs every other new hype show and half of the fcking threads (over exaggerating but there were a lot) were about rating and toxic fandoms.

That happens with every popular anime in the high ratings in this site. Nothing new. The MAL rating system is flawed anyways.

Who cares about MAL scores? Rezero is in the number 1 spot in "ABEMA" and "d-anime store" anime Japan ranking site. I'm just glad that Re:zero is so much better and successful that haters think they need to sabotage it.

the rating usually rises actually because they dont count the dropped rating for the first 20% of the eps

Oh my god man. Im starting to see why people dont like the re zero fandom. This happens to literally every super popular returning show. Look at the Bleach ratings. Same exact thing. Bots/people who have fap sessions to spamming 1s and "fell off" comments are nothing new. Can we not pollute the discussion boards with pretentious BS? Let's actually have positive discourse and maybe you won't notice the bots. The worst thing you can do is give them attention

Thread locked for breaking the Anime Discussion Guidelines:
2. Please refrain from creating threads that do not encourage meaningful and/or civil discussion. An example includes:
    e. MAL community data
      e.g. Questioning the score/ranking/character favorite counts
      e.g. Saying that series X should have a higher/lower score/count
      e.g. Specific reviews, moderation of data/community content/reviews, etc.
As already mentioned in this thread, there is a system that detects illegitimate accounts. Even if the "Stats" page show multiple low or high ratings, the system will exclude accounts that it deems illegitimate from the calculation of the MAL overall score. You can read more about it here.
