Look I dont really rate things. I have a different point of view and I enjored it very well. I understand you, and I know I gave Beyblade 10/10 because I loved it. And I gave Fairytail 8 because I felt like it. Clannad is a 10/10 but sometimes in a rush I forget to rate it and give it a better score. Not everyone will agree with you.
Ive seen you on other people account. Your trying to critisize other people. Beyblade with stay 10/10 forever with me. Thank you for taking ur time for being a dick. Please do not argue with me anymore.
I don't want to clutter up the thread so I'm stating it here, but as you took the time to offer your opinions, I felt it only fair to offer some clarifications.
As stated on my profile, I use the entire ten point scale. What this means is that a "6" is still considered above average. I consider it to be, as MAL puts it, "fine." Spirited Away has strong points and looks pretty, but didn't really grab me. I've not been overly fond of most Ghibli works I've seen, actually. But I'm not suggesting it was a bad film. It was simply alright.
I explain my 3 for Steins;Gate in the comments field, and I stand by it. You're right, it's a bit much to watch an entire series when I don't like it. But there's two factors at play: It doesn't really take that long to watch a series. If it's not immediately obvious that a series is going to be terrible, I'll carry through with it for a bit. And I'm a completionist, so if I get far enough in a series, I'll typically just see it through to the end. Secondly: I'd seen a lot of praise for Steins;Gate, so I hoped there was something that would redeem it. (There wasn't, though.) Sometimes I finish a series and, after reflection, realise I just didn't like it. (Sometimes I even watch a series ironically when I don't like it, but that's another story). Maybe I'm too patient sometimes.
I wouldn't consider dropping any series at all to be outrageous, even if they are otaku favorites. Taste is subjective, and no show is objectively good. I get the impression that you take issue with the fact that I don't universally concur with popular opinion. In fact, I'm sure that bothered you, because you critiqued me as somebody who dislikes things because they're mainstream. To whatever degree MAL represents the mainstream, the lowest ranked series I gave a 10 was Panty and Stocking, which ranks all the way down at #565. I gave a 9 to such unpopular, obscure series as K-on!!, and Toradora!. If I'm playing the part of the rebel, I'm doing a pretty poor job at it.
I never factor the popularity of an anime into my score. I've loved and hated titles both popular and obscure. If I dislike a series you and many others liked, so it goes. But I don't consider having a different defintion of what constitutes "great" to be a sign that I lack appreciation of great anime.
To clarify one final point: A show does not need to wow me by the first episode. Many don't. It was just raising a point that it is not a universal truism that I should feel obligated to watch through the bulk of a show hoping it finally gets to the good part. And it was stating that there are shows that are great from the starting gun, so I don't really feel the need to waste time on a show I'm not enjoying at all (even though I do more often than I should).
I hope this has clarified some things I think you've misinterpreted. I was particularly perturbed by your notion of objective quality. There are too many who seem to think that somebody could be "wrong" about liking or not liking something. After all, there are no wrong tastes, only different ones.
Thanks for the time you took to comment on my list.
Yea I'm 339 days from the attack I think. I've been buying everything I can buy. I need to sit around and let my gold collect though so I can buy those expensive properties in Millifields or where ever they were that are like 200k +. I always go nice on my 1st play through in Fable. How are you on chest in the Road to Rule? I need to do a bunch more helping quest and stuff to get some more seals. I only have 40/48 unlocked and the ones that are left are like 80 seals a piece. Going to take me a while to finish them I think.
You mean becoming king? Yea I knew that was just the midway point. I wonder how I'm going to manage the kingdom financially because I've been keeping my promises and stuff so I'm almost 1million in debt lol. Trying to make the money on my own for now.

Its my opinion, I love beyblade, if u dont like beyblade or think it sucked its ur opinion not mine.
So if u came here to just rant to me about how beyblade isnt epic or masterpeice then theres no reason to talk to you.
