Christmas in January is probably one of my favorite movies ever, but it only has a 5.57 on MAL. It's only 46 minutes and it's the most densely good anime I've ever seen. As in like, it's the best anime ever per-minute.
If you have a MAL account, you can plug in your username to anime.plus and you can view a bunch of stats including what your biggest score differences are. Here's everything that I have rated around +2 points higher than the average score:
All of these I would say are quite underrated, though Kare Kano and Hibike! Euphonium are pretty well-renowned. Haruhi is also very popular.
That anime.plus tool is super cool! Do you know if anything like that exists for anilist.co?
Internet search shows me this website: https://anistats.kluge-it.tech/
But I'm not sure if it includes score differences stats
I don't see it there but cool website nonetheless; thanks for sharing!
This is mine. By these metrics, Say I Love You and Akebi's Sailor Uniform are the two I love most.
