| I usually don't take the score very seriously, and especially if the anime has less than 100,000 overall completions. From the 53,000 completions of the series you mentioned, 60% of people consider it to be an 8 or higher, which is still pretty damn good. Even all the top reviews praise it. I haven't seen the series, but this is all just based off the stats. |

scottpilgrim10 said: is the same amount of weighting for the overall score given to drops or people that put the show on hold? I still think the rating is pretty dam low, since most things on Mal have a 7 rating, and if it’s below that you’d think it’s most likely trash. Yup, every rating out there factors in to the score. |

| Holy shit, has it really been almost 3 years since Flip Flappers was released? Time sure flies right by. But anyhow, it had a much higher scoring when it was released. It was around something like 8.05 at the ending. I have no idea why it decreased so drastically. |

I haven't heard of this before. Do you have a source for this information? (no I'm not doubting you, I'm just curious how you know that) |

| I personally didn't think it wrapped up as well as it could have. Some of the characters also weren't as developed much at all. On the upside I thought the visuals were super cool and the ending song is definitely one of my favorites. I rated it a 7, but I still consider myself a fan. This is coming from someone who watched it subbed weekly and then bought the domestic bluray and rewatched it with the dub. I felt the same way about it after both watches. It was a fun ride, but definitely not as great as it could of been. |
| It's a magical girl show, which is a genre that doesn't exactly have a huge fanbase outside of Japan. Even in Japan, it's a genre whose main demographic are children and otaku, with some exceptions |

Did you get the standard license from Sentai or the deluxe version (if you’re from the US). I got the premium edition and the packaging and art book is dope |
| I don't usually give a flying fuck about ratings-I'll just try an episode or 2 of a series to see if I'll like it or not. |

| Because it looks like a lolicon yuri bait and it isn't that edgy like madoka. It's a nice show and very entertaining, the final boss and the past flashbacks were cool. |

| It's a very good show, don't get me wrong, but there's much that could've been improved. The whole "pure illusion" thing is never really explained, same with the secret organization and the twins. Its all left vague. But the worst part are the characters: most lack a backstory, clear motivations and development throughout (Hidaka, Sayuri, the twins, Nyunyu). There's also, in my opinion, too much of a clash of styles. Sometimes the show's laid back and artsy, with the girls enjoying their adventure and cooperating with the other kids, while other times they're fighting to the death like some sort of battle royale. I think it'd have been better to just stick to the cute adventure style from episode one (or from the ED, which is awesome) all the way through. It's an 8/10 for me, btw. |

| Personally I like Flip Flippers because I'm kind of a sakuga-person. But I understand why it's unpopular. Because if you want a good story and FLFL just can't give you one. |
