I only found out two weeks ago that MAL's compatibility works on the basis of ratings - if two people who've seen a specific amount of shows show a good agreement with their respective ratings, the compatibility increases. :p Always puzzled me how a friend whose average is lower by 3 points than the global average and mine which is higher by .7 or so had a good compatibility (87% iirc). I just haven't seen many shows, I guess. Pick ones which I'd probably like, too, so that keeps my average high. Not that it means anything but meh, just thinking out aloud.
I eagerly await Naruto Shippuden Episode 357's release. I want to see/hear the new OP, dammit! It is being done by DOES who did Donten, Bakuchi Dancer and Shura, after all. ;;
