ok , i have not watched Ikkitousen yet . I usually watch anime with rating > 7.5 . But it looks like fine anime with cool fights and sexy girls , atleast that's my conclusion after watching few AMV , synopses . And i don't mind fan service :D .

Current rating of the show are 6.6 , 6.95 ,6.94 , 6.94 , 6.81 , 6.79 . Their average is 6.83 < 7 . Not even one sequel is above 7 .

This post is also meant to help other otakus who come to check out Ikkitousen , so leave your opinion below !!!

I enjoyed it for the "cool fights and sexy girls". Don't watch it for anything else. I recommend it if you want to see your favorite Chinese war hero's panties.

I've always thought after seeing peoples scores "I wish people had different standards". To know that people like this, it makes me think "I wish people had standards".

If you didn't drop this before the end of the first episode (like I did), something is seriously wrong with you. There are MANY better anime you could devote your time to, and if this is the only anime available, you could always watch grass grow.

The "greater than 7.0" rule is pretty widely held, and rightfully so, considering Tamako Market, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Season 2, Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru, Yuyushiki and Hidamari Sketch all have a score below 7.5 despite being some of the greatest anime ever made. Although with that said, Black Butler Season 2, Kimi ni Todoke Season 2, Chuunibyou Season 2, Psycho-pass Season 2 and Amanchu Season 2 are all exceptions to that rule, you shouldn't watch them no matter what (There's an entirely different reason for Haruhi Suzumiya Season 2's low score).

I've never found myself liking an anime with a global score below 7. The only reason I even gave Ikkitousen a shot was because I'm trying to watch the first episode of literally everything. Ikkitousen is the only anime so far that I couldn't finish the first episode of, and that's a very harsh criticism.

(I've come here because I was curious what the responses were on the obligatory "dub or sub?" thread).

1 . Standard of people totally depends on perspective , so no comments on that from my side.

2. I continued with it because of only one reason - "Oppai ", and i got bored with it after 3-4 episodes . This is a very old post which i made after watching an AMV of this anime ( with Linkin Park Music ) . I wanted to know should i watch this anime. After that i tired it , but it had a very bad story, so dropped it at ep 3 or 4 .

3. Ya , there are many good anime , but sometimes you have a craving for a specific genre , Martial arts for me . Having watched almost all popular martial arts anime , i wanted more , so i came here .

4.Hey , I loved few anime which you said are exception of greater score but poor anime . See , it all depends on the perspective , something good for me can be bad for you.

5. There are so many anime ,so score is just a way for me to filter out the most popular ones which people found good. whether or not i complete them depends on my mood for the genre , time available and my analysis after watching it for few episode.

Wow , you have 5.5 mean score . That's pretty mean LOL

No comment either.

Good stories are hard to come by these days. The nail in the coffin for this is definitely the animation quality. It's awkward, ugly, poorly implemented and not portraying of value. There are other glaring flaws with this series too (which I could discern after mere seconds) but I'll put them aside for now. A action anime with a bad story can still save itself if the combat is well enough animated and directed, this clearly isn't.

I guess finding a good martial arts anime is an impossible challenge. The only one in existence is Katanagatari.

There's a difference between bad anime and bad second seasons to good first seasons. A bad anime just lacks qualities a person demands from an anime. A bad second season lacks the qualities that made on inclined to watch the first.

Well, MAL scores are more or less meaningless. The "greater than 7" rule is the only thing to be derived from said rule that has any value. The "greater than 8" rule should generally also be followed for genres you don't like.

Look at my MALgraph. I give out an equal amount of each score. I want to bring up my scores a bit, so at some point I'll score more of the anime I've only seen one episode of (AKA, anime for which I typically don't score because I drop too many anime after one episode, and my score won't count).

If anyone has an average score lower than mine, I'd take issue with it.
