ZechAnimanga's Profile - MyAnimeList.net (original) (raw)

10/10: In simple words, an utmost cathartic experience. These works are the most potent and heartfelt works that I have never stumbled upon before. Not just from animanga, but all mediums as well. Irreplaceable content that holds dear to me for all eternity.

These are great series with a deep personal resonance that I have been immersed in.

They remind me of the sole reason I love this medium in the first place. Objectively, there is no such thing as a 'perfect' anime/manga but

these are entries I will ride with despite the flaws it may have.

If there is a series that is 10/10 despite no resonating effect, it means I don't feel comfortable to rate it lower.

9/10: Peak. The main difference is I might not resonate with these series as much. This is animanga at its peak, with content that is unparalleled. Themes, stories, and characters are heavily explored. They show the abilities of what it offers conceptually in a clear and convincing way. Superlative script, audiovisuals, characters, and ideas utilized to its fullest potential. I would consider these to be my favorites as well.

8/10: Profound. A series that I am passionate about and love. Engaging stories that have an endearing cast. They may be intellectually stimulating, conceptually deep, or philosophically challenging. These may still be among the best works that animanga offers on an entertaining, creative and conceptual level. They are not always going to leave a strong personal connection but they still have left a substantial impact on me. It does not have to be a complex series.

7/10: Works that I adore wholeheartedly. The difference is it might not contend with entries that I love with enormous passion. These are works I can easily recommend despite the flaws. While they are not compelling series, they were still charming and makes me crave for more.

6/10: Series that I like or admire in spite of the flaws it has. Decent/above average. Better than your average anime/manga. These titles have positives that outweigh their negatives. They had promise but may be lackluster due to poor execution or flaws that prevents it from grasping their full potential. I can still recommend these series.

5/10: Definitely not bad but simply mediocre. Not a lot stands out to me. While the show may have a lot of positives, it has just as many negatives. It may have unique qualities but the series does not utilize anything to make use of it. This is where it can be forgettable for me unless if it's a popular series.

4/10: Below average. Doesn't mean it's terrible - but rather weak where there were more flaws than positives, but not by a staggering amount.

3/10: This is where I can safely say the work is dreadful. Very poorly written and presented. They offer minuscule value. Easily digestible titles with nothing to take from them.

2/10: Egregious. It can't get any worse than this...right?

1/10: Abysmal. It does get worse and I question my life decisions as I'm watching this fuckfest. Series that I dislike with a passion.
