Although it differs slightly from my game scoring system, my Anime scoring system (or ASS) is basically the same: a five-level system including an Overall Rating.

[Edit Dec 1, 2024: I have updated the system just a smidge, and rewrote the Art / Acting section to include music. CD is now out of 10, and Overall Rating is reduced to 10, which gives the show a total of 50 points – there’s still an F through S grade at the end.]

• Plot / Story. Out of 10 points. Describes how well-thought out the plot was, and how the story arcs build into the series as a whole.
• CD (short for Character Development). Out of 10. Rates how well the characters and their relationships with each other build over the course of the season / movie.
• Art / Acting / Music. Out of 10. Based around the flourish of the art style(s) and acting; character design, clothing, environment, and how well-placed little details (easter eggs or Chekhov’s Gun moments, or acting details like choking voices during crying scenes) are done. It also includes musical direction in media where BGM or insert songs have an effect on the flow and atmosphere of scenes.
• Rewatch Value: Out of 10. This is my opinion on how often I would watch it given a clear schedule, or in some cases, how many times I recommend rewatching to catch all of the small details. It is also affected by how much of an impact it leaves (A Silent Voice, for instance, leaves a heavy impact for me, but I wouldn’t watch it for a while afterward because it’s a little depressing for me).
• Overall Rating: Out of 10. This is my final opinion of the show as a whole, and is based on all of the above elements, as well as any other feelings I need to mention going into or coming out of a watch session.
