Seriously. Failtacular.
I'm with you brother.
Avoid season two. I have it. Its not great. Passable I guess, by my standards, but don't waste your time!
Also Haibane Renmei is an absolutely incredible anime series and you owe it to yourself to watch it.
The only thing I've ranked as 1 is one of those worthless 80s OVAs, Dog Soldier.
Heres my list of 10's.

Toriko 72 (funi/hulu numbering)
I think I would never eat any sort of insect, just seems creepy and disgusting. Anyway emotional episodes but not much else to say about it. Oh I do love Komatsu and Toriko's close friendship.
I love to eat certain insects and critters. Scorpions and crickets in particular are my favorite.
tempting...
emunoz gave me his copy.
Thats why hes awesome <3
Watching Cat Soup is like eating happy mushrooms and glee.
Looks good. That ED is god-tier though.
10 doesn't mean perfect.
By the way, I finally got to show my friend Puella Magi Madoka Magica and not only did he enjoy it, he proclaimed it one of the greatest animes he has ever seen, and he's seen a LOT.
It is my 5th time marathoning the series to completion and I never really tire of it. The show is still as beautiful, disturbing, refreshing, and adorably messed up as it was the first time. It is truly in my top ten anime of all time and looks to never leave it. I believe it even brought my friend to tears at one point. Absolutely fucking incredible series that deserves all the sales and accolades it got. I truly hope it becomes a staple of peoples collections and favorite lists. Its really one of a kind.
Interestingly enough, I had never watched the dub before, so that was an interesting take on it. I feel they did a pretty good job with it, although the japanese voice acting was better in this case. Madoka had a really cute voice as expected and Sayaka sounded appropriately slightly sarcastic and playful. They did a good job with it.

Well, its mean it perfect for me if I give that.
You guys give too many 10's. This is anime not video games.
For me, a perfect ten means I enjoyed the series to the fullest extent that I possibly could. Yami is actually a horribly produced show with awful writing. but it is so incredibly awful that it is really REALLY fun to watch, so I gave it a 10.
In other cases, Fate Zero and Puella Magi Madoka Magica are well deserving of tens on their own merits, but I also happened to highly enjoy them as well.
Haibane Renmei is a show I consider to be actually perfect as well as the movie Millennium Actress.

I use the " What would you take to a desert island?" question and a 10 means just that's something I would take to a desert island.
SHE IS SOOOOO ADORABLE!!!

Binocular vision has some pros, although an eyepatch is incredible moe.
So they put Black Lagoon episodes 1 through 10 on Hulu and I finally bit and I'm feeling kinda mixed towards it.
Revy seemed cool but when Rock finally stood up to her I think she folded way too easy. I thought she was going to start crying or some shit. But anyways, I'd have shot rock my damn self, it's kind of insulting when someone says they've been sucking up to people their whole lives and all of a sudden are picking you to stop sucking up, how the fuck should a person take that? Revy shoulda' capped his bitch ass.
And the maid shit, damn that shit was BAAD. All in all I'll probably finish it though.
Also, that fucking Campione make out scene was terrible. It was awkward as shit to watch, more so than the usual awkward shit I watch yp make myself fall asleep.
Started Nadesico, Ruri rules.
That is all.

Nadesico is a total treat. My favorite of the space adventure sci fi shows of the era.

The amount of time you've dedicated to watching outright bad shows is incredible.
I'm too lenient with my grading.
Still no achievements
Maybe you just avoid bad anime.

That's what I tell myself when I look at my top-heavy MAL. Now I'm condemned to a lifetime of watching crap just to balance the scale.

Wow, I'm working my way down there lol
I probably need to fill in like 45863958643 shows, but it seems impossible to fully update MAL when you're a latecomer. Too many shows. :/
Seems like you really like the 80s
Wings of Honneamise a 10? Respect malgraph revealing tough truths
Even worse, it says one of my least favorites is SHAFT. Totally wrong.

No MAL is best MAL.
I think it gets skewed if you watch a lot of stuff by one studio. I thought someone on here last time we did this had the same studio in their most liked/least liked but that might've been genre now that I think about it.
Yeah, I think realistically, if you really like a studio or a genre, you'll tend to watch a lot or everything that falls within that spectrum, but there'll probably be duds along the way.
Its funny because its wrong =p
right? *runs*
Its mostly accurate for me tho, maybe you two just need put more entry.
It doesn't REALLY reveal the truth, though.
One of duck's "best" studios according to that list is Asatsu DK. They're not really an anime studio, though, but an advertising and production support agency. The main reason they're on there? For whatever reason, MAL lists them as being production studios on Wolf's Rain and RahXephon - both Bones shows, both of which duck has rated at a 9.
Bones-GAF represent!
Probably. I havent listed everything yet. Its a lot of work keeping that site up and I have tendencies to watch the same series over and over and neglect new ones.
Do it! Then you can join me in pretending that you take anime way less seriously than everyone else, which makes you cooler than them by default.
That's also why I try to keep myself off the "wall of shame".
Nerds!
YEAH! You're right! Let's do th--
--ffffffffffffffffffffffff. Too late. >_<
Meanie. ;_;
Sket Dance 77 (end)
, and the
was really nice.
The quality of the show definitely varied by the episode, but we got to see a lot of the great story arcs brought to life, with some really good stuff in future chapters they didn't get to yet, so overall it's sad that it has to end here. The manga's still going strong in Weekly Shonen Jump, so here's hoping that they'll be able to continue the anime sometime in the future.
And though Crunchyroll didn't show it, passing the torch back to Jump's other flagship comedy series:
And so ends probably the longest series I've watched on a week-to-week basis. They picked a good story for the final episode, along with
finding a way for almost every minor character to show up for a scene or two
special ending montage with a new Sketchbook song and scenes from all the past opening animations

Lucky Star 1-10
Remarkably one note, and most characters have fairly poor range. This really isn't pulling a lot of laughs from me though. I guess I like the dance at the beginning okay? The Lucky Channel stuff wears particularly thin on me each episode.
