Does anyone else think this anime is underrated and under popular for whatever reason? Only 20k members with 3k scoring? Seems kinda low for no reason ngl

Underrated? I don't think so. Underpopular? Maybe. These kind of shows don't really attract much attention, since they're kind of like a weekly break from the hype other shows create. Don't expect anyone to come here and talk greatly about SoL. I mean, look at Kawaii Dake Ja nai Shikimori-San, people are bashing at it just for the sole reason that it turned out to be a SoL. Really, it's for the best for SoL shows to not be popular, just to avoid the hate they get from fans of different genres.

I agree. It is better that the people who enjoy the SoL keep it that way, no matter how few they are, that makes the genre more special, I say this from experience.

Totally. But, sometimes, I still do wish there are more people like myself who enjoy all kinds of genres all together.

I heard people thought it was generally a depressing show with the cute entities being a source of comfort for a black company worker.

Amen my dude. My top franchises include everything from Non Non Biyori to Kingdom to Mushishi to Kuroshitsuji to Gintama to Lupin to Gundam.
My musical taste is just as all over the place. I’ll never understand people who have that one kind of thing that they enjoy, and find some elements to dislike in everything else in the medium.

Shikimori is getting bashed because it’s super average. Not because it’s a SoL.

If people didn’t hype it to the moon before it aired about being the best waifu of the season and better than last. And all we got was a mid story, a pretty awful male MC and a female MC who only has a redemption when she’s being “cool”.

SoL are supposed to be super average. You can't come to an SoL and and expect the suspense from an Action, or the sadness of a Drama... SoL were never special (and they'll never be), but that's exactly what makes them special. But, I'm not going to argue about Shikimori-san here, as this is not the place for it.

I think its pretty niche in some ways. Because not every Slice of Life Fan is into the super tiny Moe characters and not every Moe fan is into Slice of Life thats not Comedy...
I'm happy it gets as much love as it does!

RPG Fudousan is probably more underrated this season because not many people realize its a Slice of Life Comedy too!

The score is actually above average for what it is. Not that I'm complaining.

Switching a dragon for a ghost is a reason.
If you know what i mean.

The less popular the better in my opinion. Don't let the mainstream taint it! Also bruh now suddenly everything is "overrated", "underrated", or a "hidden gem".

To be fair hidden gem and underrated are synonyms. Seems to be there is no "just right", something is underrated until too many people like it and then it becomes overrated. Although did anyone expect anime fans to come to an unanimous conclusion about an anime?

Not really a big surprise because this is moe/SoL. They rarely become popular.

I feel like Senko-san was more popular but that might just have been that I was in a different community at that time.

Simple reason. Don't expect all people to watch all the aired anime. After a few episode I decided to drop this show as well after comparing what anime worth to keep to continue watching on.If the anime really good people will pick up later just like how last season Kotaro did to me.
