Why do you guys even consider these "user-made" polls news-worthy? You realize that:

a) You don't need to be registered to vote in them.
b) You don't need to have a Japanese IP to vote in them.
c) You can multivote with little to no effort.

Are you guys going to be making news posts for every single online poll some random user makes?

Stop rating anime. it harms a bunch of people. idolm@sters had alot of hard work and effort put into it. Dont throw it down like it was worthless and say it was the most disappointing anime.. I believe that all the summer releases are really good. Dont rate them good or bad until THEY ARE COMPLETE.

I complete disagree with this poll completely, people need to realize that all these shows just started and they are only on their 2nd and 3rd episodes, do you really expect them to be any good and jump straight into action or into their storyline.

~The Idolm@ster is seriously not even that bad, I really really liked episode 2.

~Natsume is doing REALLY well from what I've heard.

people need too do these polls AFTER**************** the shows ends.

Baka to Test is WAY TO HIGH on that list. I mean really. And I love the IDOLM@STER anime, they did an amazing job on it. I believe this this poll is pure bull shit.

If you look at the favorite new July anime Natsume is pretty high there, higher than in this poll. Being disappointed in an anime does not mean it is bad. I can't say why some of these shows are disappointing the fans on Biglobe, all the poll does is show numbers with no explanation.

Idolm@ster the most disappointing? I thought the first episode wasn't so bad albeit a bit boring.. Maybe there wasn't enough fan service for the rabid hordes of otaku? Razz

Maybe this should be a poll about "high/low first impressions".

INTEREST: Biglobe Poll: Most Disappointing New July Anime


Interest: The feeling of a person whose attention, concern, or curiosity is particularly engaged by something.

News: Information about recent events or happenings, especially as reported by newspapers, periodicals, radio, or television.


And what did we learn here today, boys and girls? The words Interest and News have completely different meanings!


On topic:

This poll is rather silly considering most of these shows only have 1 or 2 episodes. They hardly deserved to be rated so early.

I got a good laugh from this. How can Manyu hikencho be up so high on the list? What else did they think it was going to be?

My guess is why Idolm@ster is considered the most disappointing is because the fan base got butt hurt when Project Jupiter guys were confirmed to be in it.

It is not really rating. The poll is just a gauging the impressions these anime have left on fans and whatever expectations they had.

These some of shows were already rated by ANN as early as week 1. It might be hard to rate an idea but a finished 26 minute anime is easy to rate.

Yes, and people should treat it as such and not treat it so seriously.

Guys, this is just a snapshot of their current state of mind, like those devices that track where people approve or disapprove during a Presidential debate (it doesn't say what overall they think of the debate - it's just a snapshot).

Plus, disappointment just means it did not meet their expectations, i.e. if expectations are higher, there's a greater chance of disappointment.

Just have fun - these polls don't matter! Laughing
