| I honestly don't understand how this anime is rated so poorly. Is it really just cause people can't get used to the animation? Btw you do have to admit the OST is actually really good. I mean the show is meh right now but still not deserving of this low of a score. Are you actually trying to compare this to the trash called Big Order which is honestly, the WORST SHIT I HAVE EVER SEEN. Also, I'm actually very picky about my scores so I find my stance quite reasonable... Basically these are the stances I see why the anime is so hated: -animation -holding hands power (honestly I agree, wtf is this shit but still 5 is too low) -the terrible treatment of the first pair of handshakers from ep 1 |

| The first 30 seconds of the show. |
 |
| If it's just cause of that... that's a terrible reason |
| I'm wondering the same; i didn't watch the show yet and probably i'll never watch but based on PVs the show doesn't look THAT bad. Anyways airing scores are meaningless at this point. |
 |
| 5 is supposed average based on MAL's scale that no one uses. If anything, I'd say 5 is way too generous. This show is terrible. Usually I can get over ugly animation/art (I even found Berserk 2016 to be mostly watchable), but it's awful here. It's such a visual mess. Lots of awkward moving shots, the CG is really poorly implemented, and putting all of that together literally made me a little sick while watching it. On top of that, nothing in the first episode convinced me that it'll be worth watching beyond that. Main character is boring. The waifu he has to hold hands with didn't seem very interesting either. The people they fought in the first episode were really cringy. And it did nothing to make me get invested in its plot or premise beyond spouting some random chuuni nonsense. And yes, the hand holding thing is dumb. Yeah, they soundtrack is pretty good, but I can't give it too many points for that since it's supposed to be the icing on the cake, but I won't force myself to eat this horrible cake just for the icing. Worst thing I've ever seen? No. But it's bottom of the barrel. 1.5/10, maybe 2/10 if I'm being generous. Yeah, I've only seen the first episode, but this is probably the fastest a show has ever made me want to stop watching it. |
| Really interesting signature |
| Art? Nah. Animation? Yea, the ugly ass CGI. But the true reasoning and we all know why, is because they couldn't handle bondage girl having orgasms during the fight. |
| For me it has become the kind of farce similar with Comet Lucifer where nothing makes sense, the whole thing became hilariously terrible. XD I can't take this show seriously. I rated it 4 so far because of the bondage and bathroom scene. Those two are what the show tried very hard to convey the most imo. |

There's no redeeming factor. 3 episodes are up and none of them made any sense in ANY way. The "best" episode was probably the third and it had completely useless scenes that didn't give any valuable information or progress in the plot. This show looks AND feels autistic at best. Even if you are TOO generous, giving this a 5 is a huge stretch. Regardless of MAL having most shows overrated in general, a 5/10 is still a passing grade and that is NOT what Hand Shakers deserves. |
 |
Okay if you want something serious from me as a respond. There's a certain scene where there's a lens flare on a lamp. There's NO light facing on that one direction that can possibly do that.  There's a lot of things in the show where something really simple is done wrong. There's another scene with this.  Her face is so wrong and the grass looks like it was made from Mario Paint or the grass texture from Half Life 2. EDIT: Also, in the first picture. It looks really unnatural how he's sitting. |
|
| yeah why 5 should be 3.5 |
| firstly this anime is a mess and is the worst thing Go Hands have made, they also made Seitokai Yakuindomo, K and Princess Lover and they are all watchable. Simply put for this season, it has a lower score than Spiritpact and that anime is a mess and it's animated by a very new Chinese animation studio so they have an excuse to be mediocre. Hand Shakers is in one word a "clusterfuck", an unwatchable mess of bad CG, cringey voice acting and unnecessary jiggle physics. |
ThePlasticGuy_ said: the grass looks like it was made from Mario Paint or the grass texture from Half Life 2. What grass? That's pavement. Jryou said: cringey voice acting What's wrong with it? |
 |
| The first minute of the show is all it took to realize how awful this was. Literally the worst CG I've ever seen in my life. How can anyone sit through that? You don't have to be Ufotable, but at least be competent. |
 |
| What can you expect of a website where the highest rated anime of the season is a shitfest of fucked ups irrational characters fucking and hurting each other whenever they can? Because yeeeah that's like deep stuff man! Considering that you could see the first Hand Shakers trailer 4 months before the anime started, if anything, the rating shows that MAL users can't watch a trailer to save their lives I really really like Hand Shakers. It's one of my favorite anime of the season. It's funny and sad at the same time. I like the art and colors the producers are using. Also, the seiyuus and music are seriously awesome |
 |
| The Anime Is Good. I Rated It 6,But It Doesnt Deserve A 5....The First Episode Was Okay But The Recent Episodes Are Good And The Opening Is Also Good..... |
 |
| This is a 5?! Are you people crazy!? Lol, this is probably the best anime this season~ |
| Because it is shit in every conceivable way. |
 |
| I'm giving it a 6 for now, will have to see what happens next |
Paul said: Art? Nah. Animation? Yea, the ugly ass CGI. But the true reasoning and we all know why, is because they couldn't handle bondage girl having orgasms during the fight. The CGI isn't even half of the problem. The characters look wonky most of the time and the color palette is diarrhea flavored. The animation is some of the worst I've seen in recent years, and yes it's worse than the worst DBS episode. Just look at the battle at the end of episode 3, and the preview for episode 4 showcased even worse animation. But yeah, I disagree with the rating. 5 is too high, should be lower than Kemono Friends. |

 |
| You're right, it deserves nothing more than a 1. This doesn't even have pretty visuals to cover up how absolutely inept it is in every conceivable way. |
 |
| Oh yeah 5 scores! It should be 2.21 scores because I watched Hand Shakers 3 episodes after the animation is crap and give me cancer. I really hate the characters and soundtrack like Forest Fairy Five. The episode 1 is worst animation! |

Yeah, I've only seen the first episode, but this is probably the fastest a show has ever made me want to stop watching it. I have no idea how you think this has nice art or cool animation. There's way too many conflicting visual styles. Everything that isn't part of the scenery looks like an awkward rendered object they just placed there. There's nothing noteworthy about the character designs, and they a look way too shiny, which does not at all compliment the drab palette of the environments. Plus the directing is way too sloppy. Watching it ends up being a chore on the eyes. Unique premise means nothing. Just because it's unique, doesn't mean it's good. I'm sure a lot of people ignore MAL's scale and think 5 is bad. But if you don't think of it the same way as a test grade and more as each score indicating some level of quality, then it makes way more sense. You don't see people getting upset when a good movie gets 3 out of 4 stars even though mathematically that's a 75%, which from a test grade point of view is about average. With 5 as an average, that means 6-10 is considered good, which makes expressing how good you think something is a lot easier. Whereas if you think 5 is very bad, then you probably only think 8-10 is good (or maybe 9-10). It's pretty unlikely that you'd view two things rated as 8 as being equal if you look at it that way. |

Looking at it that way, I'm sure it has a lot to do with the fact that people just don't watch shows they don't like for the most part. There's a lot of stuff that would be rated lower if there wasn't the rule where your score doesn't count here unless you've seen a certain amount of episodes (I believe it's 1/5 of them). So it would be a bit skewed towards lowly rated stuff being short things and stuff the people watch because it's bad. Might as well wait until this show finishes airing before getting into big discussion about the score people give it. So, I wouldn't worry about the numbers too much. Especially on MAL. Bottom of the barrel is stuff like Mars of Destruction and Utsu Musume Sayuri. I do think this show is awful, but I wouldn't exactly put it on that level. |

It's a bit much. I'm sure there's some good looking shots, but I found it really hard to look at when things were moving. For example, the shot composition of the scene in the classroom in the first episode really stuck out to me as being unnecessarily busy and hard to watch. |

| Atleast it's enjoyable unlike some anime I've watched, I also don't find it bad nor good. Although this show doesn't even deserve a 5, a 6 maybe? |
| cant even fap to this |
| Yeah, but the good candidate for it |
 |
| You do realise that there are people out there who liked Big Order right? Just like you don't agree with them, the same way not everyone will agree with your opinion of this show. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| This is an anima from GoHands and Angela isn't doing the OP/ED. That is a sin that cannot be forgiven so therefore this anima is shit since it literally has no redeeming qualities. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| yeah i kind of like to say i ignore mal scores when deciding to watch something but for everything rated 5 or below they actually represent the lack of quality in a show really well |
| The first 5 minutes gave me massive headaches. Imo that animation is the worst tango blend |
88expert said: PizzaWarrior said: Yeah, but the good candidate for it No not really. I actually make a first impression in MAL. So if you are free go and check it out Unlike you, I didn't like the characters (all of them), so music is the only good point for me in this series. I think that plot is the weakest part of Hand Shakers, but graphics... I remember K, where GoHands expressed its beautiful visual style through high-quality animation, and their work in Hand Shakers disappointed me a lot. |

| Agree!! Why 5? Should 2 or 3. |
