Hey you!!
Welcome to my profile stranger, it's existence is mainly for complexionist reasons (like game achievements are) and to remind myself where I left off, but feel free to send a friend request, especially in (the unlikely) event we have similar (dis)taste. Oh and please, do forgive me for my pieckiness.
How I rate Anime/Manga:
⁶⁶⁶ - I'm obsessed about ⮞ Shingeki no Kyojin and Fate/Zero 10 - I loved watching/reading. 9 - I really enjoyed or had very few to no negatives. 8 - Worth to watch/read, but for some reason I couldn't fully enjoy or immerse myself. 7 - Enough flaws to make it average. 6 - Too many or one major drawback that made it difficult to enjoy. 5 - Unbearable for some reason. 4-1 - The worst of the worst.

Before proceeding, I'd like to make it clear that I'm a lot more forgiving (I get a whole different vibe) when it's the source material that I'm consuming. This is especially the case with Shounen (more irritable since it's now voiced) and Seinen (if you've read any, you should know why an adaptation would never deliver the same experience).
Things that may upset/make me give up watching:
(1) - Holding Back / "Now I'll get serious"
(2) - Comedy/conversation when it's inappropriate (specially mid battle)
(3) - Too many bad excuses for plot twists, events or arcs to happen.
(4) - Fillers in a "canon" episode - Happens a lot more than it should and 90% of the time they're there just to make me mad lol.
(5) - Omitting scenes from the source material (I'm yet to find a manga scene that shouldn't be animated, unless by censoring reasons)
(6) - Changing events or whole storylines
(7) - Bad CGI/animation
(8) - Irritating characters (if MC is, there's no helping it)
(9) - Story doesn't progress as much as I'd like to.
Animes I stopped watching, rating and reasons for discontinuing:
5 - NieR:Automata: One of the worst CGI I've ever seen, animations are weird sometimes (specially their mouth), scenes are shortened and enemies fighting back (their moveset) are totally omitted. Love the game though, just play it instead or watch Nier Movies from Sora on Youtube (they have japanese dub). (Upset n. 5, 7). Edit: I gave it another chance and surprisingly episode 2 was a blast, a masterpiece from beginning to end.
8 - Tokyo Ghoul:re: countless parts of the story are ignored, which makes it confusing and lacking in depth. Also, it's a lot more shounen (specially in fights), when compared to the dark and "depressing" manga counterpart. (Upset n. 5)
6 - Mirai Nikki: I don't get why they won't just kill each other, instead they go "Oh, I've come all this way just to kill someone else, you're not on my list now, just to having to kill later", freaking bad excuses for plot twists. (Upset n. 1, 3, 9)
5 - Black Clover: The whole first episode was annoying as fk for me just because the MC wouldn't stop yelling, and his VA makes it even worse. (Upset n. 8) Edit: I gave the manga a chance, it was fun to read since the story had a really good flow, a sublte influence from berserk and character abilities were interesting and element-bound. Interestingly enought, the "holding back" didnt bother me much (most of the time) because there's mana involved. But I stopped having fun after some random necromancer attacked the town, so I stopped reading for now.
7 - Hunter x Hunter: Don't get me wrong, worldbuilding is great, but it "represents every thing I dislike on a shounen". I've had to try several times to finish watching the Testing Gate arc, finally got passed that point, but had to put a stop on the Tower Arc, to withstand dragon ball cliché was beyond me.
7 - Dragon Ball: I think this is the one anime that has THE MOST nonsense and unrealistic things (to their own world) happening, on every single episode (I even started a list, lmao). If I tried to get past that I might've liked it better, but at least it was an easy and never boring watch. (Upset n. 3, 9)
6 - Naruto: I simply hate their excess of inserted fillers even in canon episodes and shitty excuses to surprise the viewer/reader. Tried manga, was good at first, specially for the background story of side characters, but the bad excuses for plot twists were still there, so I stopped reading after the fight with Kidōmaru in the forest. (Upset n. 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 9)
6 - Fumetsu no anata S02: I had to drop the anime after the addition of a MEGA annoying nonsense exaggerated comic relief character that wanted to capture Fushi ...but not really... I couldnt handle episode 4 and had to drop it. (Upset n. 2, 8)
1 - Berserk (2016 and 2017): It's really sad how the top 1 MAL score manga had the worst adaptation it could possible get. (Upset n. 4, 6, 7)
