Though I find that average ratings of the entire community do an ok job of reflecting an anime's quality. I don't look at MAL rankings, but most things within top 500 of ANN's ranking tends to be, at the very least, watchable, if not good.

I like it, and think it works pretty well.
I give a 10 to anime that I love, and have no complaints about. 9 to anime that I love. I may have one or two small complaints or problems with it. 8 to anime that I enjoy and parts of it stand out. 7 to anime that I enjoy, but doesn't stand out. 5-6 to anime that was entertaining but heavily flawed. 4 to anime that was boring, but not particually bad. 1-3 to anime that I strongly disliked or outright hated. I don't usually finish anime that I dislike, so I haven't given that many grades below a 5. |

I don't like MAL's rating system. Rating a show in 1-10 scale isn't enough for me. But I guess universally it's the best system without being too sophisticated.
I myself use an other system by grading different aspects of an anime(Story,Animation,Soundtrack, etc.) and adding them together to get a 0-100 score. |

My official rating scale, pulled from my MAL profile, is as follows:

The MAL rating system isn't bad, though it's just a notch more generous than my own. That's the main reason I have my own system on my profile, so that others can get a feel for why I'm rating the way I am.

That's the way MAL's review system works. In it, you are asked to give separate scores for art, sound, story, characters, and enjoyment. If you ask me, I don't like it either, because my final score for an anime is usually based on my gut feeling combined with a quality comparison with other anime that have similar scores, rather than purely a sum of its parts. Because of that, I don't see myself posting a review there any time soon, but instead doing so here on AS or on my own blog.

MAL's review system isn't bad by any means, but for many anime it simply doesn't reflect the overall experience (giving equal credence to art and sound as they give to characters and enjoyment). |
