Rating A Manga...

if its like extremely shitty i give it one or two stars, but i rarely do that.
three stars is when its ok but boring
Four and five are when Ive really liked it, four - if the story is kinda iffy, five if I like everything.
But I mostly dont rate manga at all xD

Oh I see! I rate it for my future reference haha.

I do it with a point system. art, story, plot (how to tell a story, something like this. the art can be awesom but when the paneels are shitty...), characters, of course also personal enjoyment. for ok 0 points, good 1point, for awesome 2points. same in the opposit direction bad-1 or -2points. on each category. then I count ╮(￣▽￣)╭ I know its kinda compicated. but dunno lately you see every new 'thing' has a rating of 9 or higher- compre them with (for example) canis and tell me again its the same ... (mmhhh) quality(?) of story/manga.

Canis?

Search Canis on mangago :D

I tag everything i read (I have a system of what tags I use etc) and when I see tags/covers etc I kinda remember if I liked it or not. I wish my memory was that good with other things haha :D

I've put Canis in 'want to read'! I don't use tags that often. Perhaps I'll give it a try! :P

5/5 if the story is well done, it doesn’t have to be excellent just needs to do what it’s supposed to do.
4/5 if there are things I wish could have been done differently, room for improvement
3/5 so-so, forgettable. Great start but disappointing ending.
2/5 DONT READ IT. Waste of time.

I have yet to rate any 1/5 lol to be honest I wish we have rating based on 10 points instead of 5. Some mangas is not quite there for the perfect 5/5 but not that bad for 4/5, so I give them 5/5 anyway.

I do rate 1/5 sometimes. Rarely. But sometimes everything is completely agonizing from art to story and everything in between lol.

I rate depending on the story-line, entertainment, and characters. If I rate 5/5, then I'd want to reread it again and the characters exceed my expectations in terms of development and personality/behavior. A 5/5 rating in regards to entertainment is reading it all in one sitting and giggling like an idiot. I rate stories 4/5 if I feel as if it's rushed but if it's still extremely good, I may reconsider and go with a 5/5. A 3/5 rating is an 'okay' rating, it's like I expected something to change but nothing really changed and that's where character development comes in the most. Anything below a 3/5 is basically saying the story wasn't my type or it was just bad in general.

Oh! I don't know if I would re-read any Manga other than my absolute favourites! Skip Beat! and Namaikizakari would probably be the works I'd want to read again.

Highly recommend Canis! Don’t want to put your hope up but personally, I find it brilliant. I prefer the first 3 (or 2?) books, after that is the on-going spin off.

I'll definitely check it out. I'm Yaoi-biased, if nothing else.

O M G I feel you. Seems like all the new webtoons/manga with pretty characters and a lot of sex (porno in short) and CUTENESS OVERLOADED or super fucked up story get all the raves and over 9.0 ratings. Some are so bad it hurt my head to read, like Kekkon shite kudasai. Someday I remember an old gem that I want to reread, and it only has 8* rating with about 100-200 votes. Smh

Lol I thought you inserted the 'shite' but the Manga is actually called kekkon shite kudasai ,

I rate them by plot, pace, and character design/development. If a story is slightly lacking in those then they get a good rating, which is a 3 star rating for me. 3 star is average, it's good, but it's not all that. It's readable but not neccessarily enjoyable. A 4 star is if it has all the rating components or if one or two of the components is done very well and I really appreciated it but it's not 5 star because it ceases to connect with me as a reader. sometimes you just "feel" a story that can not be explained. That's the 5 stars. I felt more than enjoyment and the story actually connects with me as a reader.

Anything less than 3 stars is usually below average reading experience. It just lacks so much in the rating components it's sad.

Do you quit reading if you predict it will be below 3 stars?

its truly a great one (art, plot, story, charas)! though.... never read something like this when your head is filled- or its for me. like dont want to think about anything then just 'light food' is better.

I sometimes do if I feel it's way too ridiculous but most of the time I finish it so I can give a fair critique in the comments. I shouldn't be criticizing the whole manga based on 2 chapters.

I dont rate mangas I dont lyk, so my rating starts at 3 ☆..
3☆: one time read
4☆: gud but something was lackin ( will reread if i feel like it)
5☆: only the best ones.. mostly stories that give you the satisfaction after reading them bcz they are a complete package overall.. ones that can be reread multiple times..
