popular reason to give this series with 1-5 is

1. mistakenly this series as isekai just because there is reincarnation element in it

2. for LN/WN reader, give wrong prologue same to disappointed their expectation

3. some of them feel anos quote words is cool but some of them is not because how it animated and voiced is not what they expected moreover when anos show his cool part

4. the studio make anos OP scene too flashy and too much moreover there is less explanation for it only make it look very worst. at least give 1-3 frame to display short information about it like what a certain studio do to madan no ou to vanadis anime, it is still better than nothing when it come to series with deep setting

5. there is some fight scene where it is better to have simple animation but because what they have done in no 4, it is impossible to fix this point

6. don't make new drama is strict rule for anime adaptation, nobody even the author want the anime have new drama that are not in original. maybe it can take an interest for some viewers but when it come for the reader it is not weird if they give scorn gaze to the studio for it

7. "if the studio have been create bad record in the past, it can be big reason why future adaption can give same trash adaptation" is common fact and hard to make the viewers to not compare current adaptation with trash adaptation in the past

it can be more but i think these point is commonness in reviewers, still need more reason why it doesn't deserve more than 5 of 10?

People always seem to rate Anime of this type badly, usually because they are too elitist to understand the nuiance, "Power Fantasy" anime such as this, Kenji no Mago, Reincarnated as a slime and to be honest every single Isekai anime apart from Re: Zero all suffer from this problem, they want superserious anime with really in depth plots and if its a proffessional review often some kind of Political message mixed in.

I love darker more serious anime, i recently just binged the Whole of "Pyscho Pass" including the movies but i am also a huge fan of SAO its good to break things up and change to something lighter or easier to watch, most anime rate 6/7 are perfectly watchable anime, i even found "Isekai Cheat Magician" to be quite enjoyable another i found entertaining was "Knights and Magic"

Never said there was no such thing as garbage tier anime, but just because a show is Garbage dosnt mean it isnt enjoyable to some degree, in "Misfit Demon Academy" for example the guy says "Did you really think stabbing me through the heart would be enough to kill me" or when he kills the guy with his heart beat, its garbahe however its still enjoyable, expecting every anime in every season to be a wholly origninal philisophical masterpiece is just naive.

We all know why but what matter is that they are failing.
The show is still solidly above 7.5 and it will stay like that.

Au contraire. It's a mindless, fun, chill show to watch. A couple laughs, OP protagonist and some quality time to be had. It's almost a parody unto itself, and if you just let it be what it is without attaching your own half-truths and expectations to it, you'll have a blast. Give it a whirl; it's not so much that it's worth it, but for shits and giggles. That's what this show does, and it does it really well.

I don't mind 1/10 rating its just everyone has their own opinion preference and lots of other things that affect their score when rating an anime, and it's mostly case-by-case no matter how you look at it

I'm more confused on people that rate an anime without finishing it like usually after 1 or 3 episode, I'm not saying you have to watch the entire thing to form an opinion but if you stop watching midway isn't it make more sense to just not give a score and put it on "Dropped" since you don't even sit through the entire thing?.
for example, just look at ongoing anime "review", but then again reading a review on myani is a bad way to decide to watch an anime or not, so I'm kinda exaggerating a bit here so take it with a grain of salt

There's honestly not much of a reason other than the minority are just more vocal with their dislike of the show, hence why 10% of users rated the show 5 or lower while the 90% rest of mal users rated it higher.

Same goes with the current top reviews trashing on the show, more people like the show and that's pretty much it

To me it's mind boggling how someone can watch every episode and give an anime a 1 rating. How sad is your life that you have nothing better to do than to watch something you hate in its entirety. It would be different if they dropped the show at episode 4 or something, but to keep chugging along is just impressive on its own.

The show was generic and full of troupes, but it was fun as hell.

I think people giving it 1 is probably because of pure hate, and not an objective review. I personally give this a 5/6 because even though the story was not that new or groundbreaking, it is an anime that is fun to watch, and this by the fact I finished watching the anime.

Because people love to see the MC suffer and get treated like shit, and then with the power of friendship overcome all of this. I know this anime its not a isekai, but, i dont know how people like a isekai that the mc is weak and suffer af (re:zero) with the excuse of "its character development", the good point of being isekai'ed is when you have op powers.

This type of show is my jam but I see that's not for everyone, I think it's a low 7, high 6 and can understand why people would rate it even lower, although I agree that scoring one is kinda troll but then again scoring this a 10 also is. Also the final episodes was like average at most and way too cringe with the singing and shit. I don't usually say something is rushed but this show should have like 26 episodes or something to develop more of the characters and the history of the world etc....

Dunno if that will help you but here we go.

Initially I rated it 6. After final EP, that was pretty dull, I checked my MAL list to compare it with "similar" shows and the score I gave them. So I typed 'maou' in search engine:
- Hataraku Maou-sama! at 7
- Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo no Dorei Majutsu at 6

I didn't enjoy Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha as much as these two (and many other shows I gave 6), so I settled at 5 as final score. If I were to rate it any higher I'd have to review a lot of my other anime ratings. I do that from time to time but in this case I don't see a point. Tbh as I scroll through my list this show fits perfectly into my other 5's.


As for why 1s? I think most of these people dropped this anime after 1-2 eps and when it ended changed it's status to completed. You know, to expand their MAL list that boost their egos - "oh look at me, I've watched 100000 anime so I'm real kawaii expert otaku" ¯_(ツ)_/¯

SRASinister said:

Short answer: they probably don't. You can't verify if I (or anyone else) watched even 1 minute of any anime and I can still put it on MAL as completed and rate it as I like. I can give 10 to a total crap or 1 to a masterpiece. That is the "problem" with rating/review sites; be it anime, movies, music, books or anything else. That's why you usually get to see an average score, where 10s and 1s aren't really important since they nullify each other.


E:
Check list of the guy who posted below me - that's what I'm talking about. He probably never watched half of the shows on his list from start to finish. Especially the ones he gave lowest score but his edginess (in his eyes) is over 9000. I'd never finish a show that is even remotely close to 1 but he had no problems with that even if anime has +20 episodes ;)

I personally don’t think it’s a 1/10 after much consideration. Yea, it’s your typical power fantasy with an OPed MC in an academy setting and doesn’t have the best production value, either. But I personally think there was some value in terms of amusement from Anos purposely flexing. At least it has some sense of self-awareness and dumb fun context. I’m not saying it’s good at all, it’s still pretty bad, but in the end I think it’s around 3/10.

I don't understand how someone makes it through an entire show where the entire point is it whole heartedly embraces totally overpowered anime logic and tropes in a satirical way and then says "show bad because doesn't make any sense for x y z reason." You guys do realize the main character beats the stuffing out of a guy in the first episode with his heart beat. The show isn't meant to make sense. The show is hilariously broken. The final episode there are MANY moments where you can tell that they basically said "what would be the most ridiculous thing that another show might actually do in this genre that absolutely wouldn't make any sense or fit the flow at all?" "Ah yes, let's throw in a song about friendship that empowers the demon king out of nowhere, and everyone will know the correct lyrics to the improvised song." It doesn't get much more blatant than this without straight putting a disclaimer on the screen that points out that the show is satirical.

it’s really most definitely not a 1. Anyone who says it is is full of it. That said it’s not great either I’d give it a 5 or a 6. Leaning towards a 6 because the mc doesn’t make me want to blow my brains out, as well as a few other things.

V: "Haha I break your sword"
B: "Haha my mother turns into a sword"
A: "Haha that bracelet doesn't seal my magic but it activates my real power because I've only used 10% of it."

No way this anime is better than average, so 1-5 is a completely justified score to give, depends on how much they think it sucked.

Whatever they do, it's not working (at least at the time this comment was made) because the anime rating is still 7.5 and I'm pretty sure it'll stay like that. not like rating in MAL really matters anyway lol

I still think the biggest factors are:
1. It's another overpowered MC, take Godsuya for example, even though the reason why he's OP is explained very well people still don't like him.
2. They're mistakenly thinking it was isekai because of the reincarnation element.

People like showing off their big dick energy by giving shows low scores.
It has always been this way and it will never change. Just be glad you're not an elitist and move on.

This show for example won't be for everyone, I get it. But if you put any thought into your scores you should realize there is no way this can be a 1 or 2/10.
That's why you can't take any ratings seriously, it's better to ask a friend who got similar taste for a recommendation than MAL.

It's really not. But it's not anything special, either.
It's just a typical harem more or less. But the MC is above average, he's a chad and actually punishes villains, which was surprisingly enjoyable.
