I'm here mostly to just keep track of stuff I've seen and read, and I don't claim to be a pro critic of anything, neither am I here to engage in MAL community.


About my ratings.
I try to stay somewhat "objective", but many shows and movies I rated have from 1 up to 3 points of personal enjoyment added.
Some of the ratings are really old, and don't reflect my current opinion.


What's "objective"?
Well, since different shows/movies/manga series are trying to achieve different goals, usually I try to understand what is it that creators wanted to do first, and then judge how well they executed certain aspects - such as presentation, writing, sound design and music, etc. - in order to achieve those goals.
I can give 7 to a show that has a great plot, good dialogues, decent art style and shit animation, - if it's the intricate plot that creators want to put the biggest emphasis on, - and at the same time give 7 to a show that looks so good you want to watch it forever, has fantastic music, but has horrible plot, cliché characters and meh dialogues, - that is if it was trying to be just an eyecandy, and not much else.
There is, of course, a lense of subjectivity that I look through when I judge the animation/art quality, realism/depth/cleverness of dialogues, the quality of music/sound design and voice acting. I consider myself a person with a rather diverse taste, so most of the time I'd say I'm not an unfair judge of things, but keep in mind that at the end of the day I'm just as biased as anybody else on the planet.
