Mar. 28th, 2022 08:50 pmThinking about doing the "unpopular positive opinion" xkcd challenge for anime, using MAL scores. How hard this is depends on what criteria you use.
"Below an 8" is very easy- basically every show I genuinely like (unless it's super popular) is rated in the 7-7.8 range.
"Below a 7" is kind of medium difficulty- for me a lot of stuff that fits here is older BL/shoujo that not a lot of people are fannish about anymore, anime adaptations of otome games/idoltrash, and, weirdly enough, Otherside Picnic. I imagine it's easier the more obscure your tastes are.
"Below a 6"- now this is real hard mode. I mean, I'm the kind of deranged pervert who unironically enjoys Diabolik Lovers, but most people are probably going to have trouble with this one unless you're into obscure 80s OVAs (one of the only other things i like that's below a 6 was Kimera) or specific kinds of weird fetish porn. Anyone else is kind of screwed here.
EDIT: oh fuck i forgot about the "had to have come out/had to have first watched it when you were an adult" shit. that makes this harder.
