i used to visit animenfo.com to get the info of animes and the viewer reviews. i am surprised when i found out that there were no "review submit" button on the info page of each anime. there are few reviews that are very long and objectives. but i think we all want to see something primitive, more primitive reviews may sometimes surpass a long objective one (exclude the spams, Smile).

Go to "My Anime" and select "Edit Comment". Thereafter, once you've made your lists public, everybody can see what you have to say about a particular anime.

Check the public lists to see how this looks in practice. Or, for a specific example, see my list of anime (seen all).

As you can see, the functionality that you desire already exists in the setup.

thanks for your help, it's actually harder than i thought. but is there anyway, to see what others' comments for the anime in one page, not to search everyone else's lists.

another thing i found awkward is that one anime i watched happened to be a Chinese subbed, because i am chinese and i read chinese so half of my collection are chinese subbed. i think when a user "choose version", there should be something like "other language dubbed", "general dubbed", or even "others"

This could be an interesting function for the encyclopedia: to view comments of a specific anime made by other ANNers. Current system allows you to see the ratings; I'd say it's good enough for most users.

Well I've mentioned this problem before. For the time being, just choose "English subbed." After all, the purpose of subbing is letting you watch it with a language you can understand; it can be English, Chinese, or any other language(s).

BTW, which type of Chinese are you using: traditional or simplified?

thanks.

i have learned few more things Smile

i download animes from both english sites and chinese sites. the chinese site i go is in main land therefore the site language is simplified chinese. but many of their collections are actually traditional chinese subbed. most of chinese can read both simplified and traditional chinese (at least in mainland, other than that i don't know). the one i wanted to rate.... sorry i forgot Smile

I don't think ANN wants user reviews.
