And American reviewers are pretty much the most generous out there. My rule of thumb is that a 3.5 rating by Japanese equates to a 4.5 rating by Americans. Seriously.

- em500 4y agoAnecdotally it seems that American reviewers tend to give mostly either 1 or 5 stars.
- ThePadawan 4y agoI recently started tracking the books I read on GoodReads and their rating system struck me as the most American one yet: 5 stars: "it was amazing" 4 stars: "really liked it" 3 stars: "liked it" 2 stars: "it was OK" 1 star: "did not like it" I wonder how many people, without any other context, would interpret "I'd rate this book 2 out of 5 stars" as "yeah, it was OK".
- tsimionescu 4y agoIt depends. I've seen reviews like "Excellent food, loved the atmosphere, some of the best <local food> I've had. However, when I asked for the check, waiter came directly with the POS and told me explicitly that tip was not included in the check. 1/5".
