Another abomination

GemLil 16 years, 11 months ago at May 14 18:35 -
A while ago Prelude and the elite did a job trying to wipe out the Narutos as the top rated movies on the site....I'm requesting that those who want to, do the same for our friend TV, please. There are 8 anime programmes on the first page alone.

www.listal.com/search/tv/1/?sortby=rating

This difference this time is, most of you must have seen a few of the TV shows...take your time to youtube a bit of it if your scruples wont let you rate without a watch. Lets get that top rated looking a bit more like the 'top watched'.

Peace out.

Actually, a few of those are actually good animes,

Basically, Rurouni Kenshin is the only one that should be anywhere near the 1st page

But, that doesn't mean I am gunna lower my scores for the ones that I actually liked(I.E. Death Note, Bleach and YuYu Hakusho)

However, I do wonder if everyone is giving 10s and junk because it actually IS one of the best animes they have seen, or if it is because they just want animes up there

They obviously havnt seen a good television show. Legends like 'The X-Files' and 'The Simpsons' should be up there; no way should there be 8 animes...they just give everything 10/10 that was made in Japan.

i put the score i think they deserve, and if i havent seen it i dont score at all. i dont care whats in the top ratings. i rate what i want to rate, and its not only anime i rate.

I doubt it Yama. I've done my piece.

Have you seen the way these kids rate? They give everything 10/10! This Megatron kid is a prime example:

Does anyone else think that the rating system is messed up? A show like The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya has only been watched by 28 people and is rated higher than Heroes and has been watched by 1031 people. More weight should be factored into the number of people that have watched a show/movie. To be fair to anime, the fact that Naruto outranks Neon Genesis Evangelion is just plain sad. If you are going to rank anime, at least make them good ones. Where is the Patlabors, Ghost in the Shell, Graves of the Fireflys, Lupin III, and the Ghibli films.

As bad as it looks having Naruto up there on the first page. I can't give it a rating it doesn't deserve. Whether its one or ten. Sorry, troll voting against idiot kids ain't my thing. Even if its for the better.
Devious Phenomenon 16 years, 11 months ago at May 15 1:43 -
I gave Naruto what I think it deserves(A 1or a 2 I think) and I gave shippuden what I think it deserves(A 3 or a 2 if I remember

no offense GemLil, but not all animes have big eyes and unrealistic junk, thats the typical stereotype, just like it being a japanese only thing, it was developed in Japan, but Americans or Europeans or Africans could make a show if they wanted to... It's just, most people here in America are too lazy to do it, and most in other places either don't have access to it, or just don't want to...

I have yet to see X-files, for some reason it always ends when I flip t the channel that may have it on

I think the problem is that animes are given 10/10 by a bunch of idiots, and al other shows are given 1/10 by those same idiots

Ok, I am going to be showing my age here...but what the heck is a Naruto? I keep seeing that term on here and I have never heard it before.
Devious Phenomenon 16 years, 11 months ago at May 15 1:59 -
Naruto is an anime developed by *EDIT* Masashi Kishimoto

it is about ninja, though... the main character is a loudmouthed stubborn idiot who acts like an 8 year old(and is 14)

they overpower everything and exaggerate everything, then they underexagerrate, pretty much every show has a different plot and there isn't much of a good plot line

And why is this something that people strive to be?

Maybe I was a confused kid...but I always wanted to be treated older than I was rather than younger when I was growing up.

dattebayo is a fansub group. they have nothing at all to do with Naruto

The maturity level of the average child in the U.S. is pretty damn low for a lot of people

I really don't understand how it is popular either

maybe because it is long enough(200 something episodes and counting) that people can catch one after a while
Each episode teaches a moral, but nobody seems to notice any of these morals, which is pretty pathetic considering they practically SCREAM it

And... I agree, who wants to be a stubborn idiotic immature hyperactive kid? theres a reason why the show is 7 and up, it is made for 7 year olds(at least, the U.S. version, the Japanese version is more... 12 and up or 14 and up)

My bad Serial Killer, I don't really care for the show, so I wouldn't know, I'll wiki it real quick
silent killer 16 years, 11 months ago at May 15 2:07 -
you were right the first time. Naruto is for kids in the age range of about 7 to 14
Devious Phenomenon 16 years, 11 months ago at May 15 2:14 -
No, the Japanese version(the way it is REALLY Translated and UNCUT) is probably about 8+ in Japan

The English version(No blood and slightly changed translations) are 7+ and probably about 5+ in Japan

The English version of nearly ALL animes is censored and a censorship of a persons Ideas, I honestly refuse to watch any animes that have been dubbed because they lack what the creator made

for instance, in Naruto, during that invasion, the guy who was hit by the three kunais had a trail of blood following him when he fell, and that teacher dude got a majorly bloody nose when Naruto did the sexy jutsu thing

but in the english, all(ALL) blood is edited out except for thelittle busted lip, or the slightly bleeding scratch

In the Japanese version, there are some things said that lead to thinking they may be doing something later(If you catch my drift) and they cuss a LOT
in the English, None

THAT is why it is 7+ in English, cuz we have less maturity, while there 7+ is completely different

regarding naruto, the manga is actually not bad for a shonen, so you have drama, action, comedy and quite well-developed characters, twists and turns in the generally quite interesting storyline. the anime tv show on the other hand consists mostly of fillers, which are redundant.

however, i don't think we should decide what's good taste and what not. if those kids only know dull and cheaply produced anime shows, that don't deserve 10 stars, let them rate those shows however they like (only make sure, as xpsuser stated, that the weighting is reasonable and that it is like in IMDB where high ratings _and_ many votes make the top spots). i'm sure they don't even know many of the greats because they lack the age or time. but one advantage of Listal is it's ability to introduce people to other tastes, and this is where the true chance is. not forcing our taste upon them, but showing them by good reviews, lists etc. that a world of good television shows beside anime exists out there.
