8.8? Well it might also be 7.5 for another person, you are understanding the word "overrated" wrong. It is not about that, it is about the studio. Remember how the studio bragged about Titan too much as the best thing like months ago before it came. Even I was hyped.Apex wrote:
First, of all Overrated≠Overhyped≠Worst.
Overrated means something that has too much scores. This word is often used when comparing statistics. E.g. Steins;Gate has a score of 9.17, and a #3 rank, while I was expecting a 8.8, but that doesn't mean it's overhyped or it's the worst. It just means it just has too high marks.
Overhyped means something has too much hype, fans, or focus. This focuses more on people than scores. E.g. SAO has a lot of fans, but it has a very bad mark and score, so it's not overrated, and it's not really the worst when you compare it to School Days. It just means it has to much hype.
Too much overrated is Titan currently, it was ranked #10 at third episode or so, it deserves 8.2 max. But it might get 5.0 score for another person, that's why overrated might also mean bad anime without comparing to another series.
Comparing part is wrong as well, if you are claiming that you will be the best around or you will bring something great, you have to prove your claims afterwards (titan sadly failed at this part). Series like school days didn't even have claim like that, shounens do this all the time and many anime watchers fall for their stupid drama-ost-animation traps (gc, sao, K recently; using ost animation tricks). So you can call almost all shounen anime overrated; they are not the worst but not the best either. If a person seriously gives 10 to those, it is clear that they just love DRAMA.
