I'm a weirdo who likes bizarre and wacky stuff and dementia connoisseurs.
This list is completely based on my taste. Generally, for me, I value characters and writing the most. That being said I don't think there's any objective way formula for a "good show", and I don't believe a story or show needs to have some element to make it good, it just depends on the execution. Thus, I think rating everything by the same standards no matter what is stupid.
I watch the shows, think is good - high score, think is bad - low score.
I don't like giving decimal scores because that level of precision is too tough to pinpoint 100% consistently and to be quite honest it's just ridiculous after a bit (what the fuck is the .2 difference between a 6.7 and a 6.5? seek help).
I mostly just score similarly to the default MAL options as well as just looking at stuff around that score to make comparisons, but if I had to define all of them
10 - I absolutely loved it, and I think it's a masterpiece. The highs were just that good and I had little to no complaints overall.
9 - I really liked it, and I consider it extremely good but just didn't make the 10s list for one reason or another.
7, 8 - I liked it a lot, it was overall pretty solid and had a few flaws or didn't overachieve as much as 9 and 10s.
6 - I liked it, but it offered nothing noteworthy or had a lot flaws that brought it down.
5 - I was neutral on it, these are shows that simply exist or have a lot of things holding it back for me to really like it or dislike it.
4, 3, 2 - I disliked it, and I thought it had few redeeming qualities. Also, just because 5s are mediocre doesn't mean these are inherently more interesting in my opinion. They're still bad.
1 - I really disliked it, and I thought it had next to no redeeming qualities.
Yeah for sure. I think I might've written a little too much in my review though lol. But, it looks like we're getting a lot of anticipated movie releases this year like from Shinkai and Yuasa. So here's to hoping that those come out better than this one haha.
