OK then, if wee count from when I watched a bunch of new releases from Fall 07:

Clannad - 10/10
Da Capo II - 8/10
ef - a tale of memories - 10/10
Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun - 6/10
Kimikiss Pure Rouge - 7/10
Koharu Biyori OVA 1 - 8/10
Myself;Yourself - 5/10
Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei - 10/10
Shigofumi - 10/10
School Days: Magical Heart Kokoro-chan - 8/10
Sketchbook ~full color'S~ - 9/10
True Tears - 6/10
Zero no Tsukaima: Futatsuki no Kishi - 6/10

Statistics won't tell the story here.

I dropped:

School Rumble
Lovely Complex
Prism Ark
Shion no Ou
Cowboy Bebop
Persona - Trinity Soul

- Prism Ark, Shion no Ou and Persona - Trinity Soul were newer series.

I'll probably try Prism Ark again, I can't clearly remember what went wrong there..
Shion no Ou was actually pretty good, but the story got bland quickly, and a bit repetitive.
Persona just got really freakin slow AND boring.

Keep on record - in my next update I'll add the following "keep up with new" titles that have finished.

Da Capo II S.S.
Bamboo Blade
Hayate no Gotoku (I have no idea why I haven't added this yet)
Kanokon
Minami-ke
Minami-ke Okawari
Shakugan no Shana II

Keep in mind most of these are follow-ups from 2007 series, with the exception of Kanokon.

I don't follow everything that comes out - I said I wanted to watch a lot of the Spring anime but I just couldn't.
Plus I wanted to watch a few older series that I've been meaning to watch.

Assassinator Wrote:errr.... actually, you're the keep-up-with-new-releases kind, rather than the selectively-only-watch-good-stuff-on-recommendation kind.

Nah, that's wrong, keep in mind I picked up mosre series.. i.e. Hayate no Gotoku & School Days earlier simply cause Zero wanted more on the bandwagon.

Assassinator Wrote:So besides for the starting batch of old stuff (that was probably on recommendation), everything else has been new releases. And among the new releases, your average is still biased to the high end. Which kinda counters your argument.

Also wrong, I was a ton of new stuff in 2007 because that was my choice - in the meantime I've decided I couldn't and wouldn't do as I did then, I just don't have the time capacity.
I've been watching older series constantly, simultaneously whilst watching something else. The only exception of this was Fall 2007.

I know right?

Sadly the consistancy of both turned for worse after the beginning....... boringz...

I'll probably give them a second go.

Oh really?

Lets see, the mean of the stuff you listed is 7.923076923. The median is 10.

I wouldn't consider a mean of 8 to be average, and what about the median of 10? (Median=10?!?!?!? ... ... ... 10?!?!?!?)

But you did say that drop stuff you don't like. In that case, maybe it's not as bad as the statistics show.

But if you take everything into account (not just the ones you listed), then it's worse.

When I was at 'hacks.

Seriously, there is nothing to prove here other than I wanted to watch good Anime and that I've seen most of Fall 2007..

If I just have higher ratings than most people, I don't care, I've just seen more that I've enjoyed.

And thus I said I don't really want to argue with you on that again.

(btw, it's more "I enjoy more of what I see" than "I see more that I enjoy"). <- the main point of our last massive argument.

I'm not sure what happened to the previous discussion, but meh, if you just happen to like everything, then I can't see any fault in rating everything high. You just need to scale your ratings a little, that's it.
I think Senseito Sakura maybe should increase the spread a little, but that's his choice, and sometimes, it's really difficult to say whether one is better than the other.......

oh lawd, how can I like everything!?!?!?

its not like I have 8+ ratings for everything on the list!

do I have to repeat myself that I've been lucky enough to have seen some very good anime during the time I've watched Anime??

If any of you want to recommend any bad Anime just for the Balance of the Universe, tell me some. I'll watch them just for the sake of it.

You're misunderstanding him. He means to just spread your ratings a bit. (i.e. more variance, rather than all clumping on 8, 9 and 10). He's not telling you to dislike stuff.

Senseito Sakura Wrote:do I have to repeat myself that I've been lucky enough to have seen some very good anime during the time I've watched Anime??

Read that really little comment in my last post. Because "very good" is a subjective thing (that is, depends on the reviewer).

But really, do whatever you want. Wee're not imposing anything on you.
