Sazae-san losing to a late night anime airing past 11PM is not a sight I thought I'd ever see.

I was most surprised by Lupin's audience.

Well, if you have been keeping up with the Demon Slayer news about awards, sales and rating, it kinda makes sense

If anyone asks why they keep milking the series, this here is exactly why

I think I've seen it come in #2 like, twice before. Ever. I think the shows that beat it might've been Chibi Maruko-chan and Detective Conan.
There's a universe somewhere where a teenager's posting a laughably implausible story on Narou where the mangaka character's success is framed in ludicrous superlatives like "sold ten times as many volumes in a year as the second-best-selling manga" and "volumes 7 and 8 adapted into the highest-grossing Japanese movie ever" and "season 2 aired in a late-night timeslot and got higher ratings than Sazae-san". We live in the universe of that teenager's story.

Wow! I can't remember the last time Sazae-san didn't come in at #1. It's incredibly consistent as the anime ratings champ. Usually the only time it's not at the top of the charts is on the rare weeks when it's not airing. That's a huge win for Demon Slayer, especially when you factor in that this episode is mostly reused content from the movie.

I'll say it again. Can we finally have a discussion about why the show is hitting such a perfect chord? I think beyond a shadow of a doubt that it's more than the animation. It's popularity has even appeal beyond Japan. I'd just be accused of loving the show - because I do - but I don't think my bias is speaking when I say it deserves looking at.
