SoL/iyashikei enjoyer with a soft spot for yuri and a penchant for trash. I like keeping track of writing about the media I consume helps me organize my thoughts and makes for a fun pastime. I rate based on enjoyment which is usually influenced by how wellmade a series is. Wellmade can constitute production values story elements or harder to quantify feelings memorability emotional resonance personal attachment etc. which are usually represented through dividers or mentioned in notes. Note that the order of my dividers is irrespective of rating and unrelated to my enjoyment of a series. Im a somewhat harsh critic and I make full use of the provided scale so a rating that looks low at first glance like a 6.5 or 7 is by no means bad. I at least somewhat enjoy anything above a 5 and anything above a 7 is considered well worth my time. Usually Ill clarify in my notes why I gave something a certain rating or sometimes Ill just comment on the show overall. Watch for minor spoilers in notes Scale: 10 Personal Treasure 9.5 Masterpiece 9 Borderline Masterpiece 8.5 Outstanding 8 Excellent 7.5 Great 7 Pretty Good 6.5 Solid/Satisfactory 6 Fine/Alright 5.5 Meh 5 Average 4 or less Bad Dividers: Immense Personal Impact: Incredible attachment with themes or messages I find myself returning to and trying to incorporate into my personal life. Usually accompanied by extreme emotional and thematic resonance. Profoundly Moving: Didnt impact me personally on the extraordinary level of the tier above but evoked extreme emotions from within me likely because of touching content and/or significant thematic resonance. Thematic Resonance: Contains themes or messages that deeply influenced and lingered within me usually because theyre exceptionally executed distinctively unique and/or personally resounding. ThoughtProvoking: Lived rentfree in my head usually for long periods of time. Often thanks to complex profound and/or shocking subject matter. Surprisingly Decent: Watched/Read and came out pleasantly surprised. Usually for seasonals that surpass my expectations but can be anything that is surprisingly actually good. Good Trash: Trash that no matter the score is fun. Trashy series that are enjoyable watches. Bad Trash: Trash that no matter the score is trash. Trashy series that are bad but in an unsatisfying unpleasant way. Problematic: Couldve been a lot better but is... problematic in some way. Doesnt mean I didnt enjoy it as my ratings signify enjoyment but I have one or more problems that hindered my enjoyment from what it couldve been. Not My Cup of Tea: Has qualities I respect but I personally didnt like or enjoy it as much as I expected to. Usually because the series doesnt match my tastes or because I couldnt get invested in the characters or subject matter. Indefinitely Paused: Not quite paused but also not quite dropped. Usually for series I like but am not fully committed to sinking in the time to watch/read which I may or may not get back to. This implies that Paused is anything I will definitely get back to either because Im taking a break not in the mood to watch/read it currently or waiting for more content to binge all at once. Need To Rewatch/Read: Something that I feel the need to reevaluate either because of dense or confusing subject matter the considerable time since I last watched/read or gradually shifting opinions. Sometimes also because the series was so incredible that I felt the desire to immediately rewatch/read it or I just forgot what happens lol.
