So it looks like the only titles from the Preview Guide that weren't popular enough to get streaming reviews or make it onto the user rankings were:


  1. A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring
  2. A Nobody's Way Up to an Exploration Hero
  3. Kinnikuman: Perfect Origin Arc
  4. My Wife Has No Emotion
  5. Ramen Akaneko
  6. Rising Impact Season 1
  7. Sengoku Youko (Season 2)
  8. TASUKETSU -Fate of the Majority-

Between the “weird” art style and “girly” subject matter, I’m not at all surprised to see Narenare outside the top-30 in this particular outlet’s polls. I’ve been digging it so far though, personally. Through three weeks, I’ve enjoyed each episode a little bit more than the previous one. I'm hoping that if it keeps up the good work, it might win at least a few more people over.

The series I'm watching are all over the place. Some ranked high, some ranked low, some ranked in the middle, and one not ranked at all.

Based on what I've seen in the past, there have been shows that have made large comebacks in the cumulative rankings, but it takes many weeks of great results to offset a poor episode 1.

>tfw you're watching the worst show of the season purely because of a two-page beach episode spread from the manga

Feels good, man.

Looking at Elf Plus's flatline at the bottom, if people get bored and stop watching it, what happens then? Apparently there were enough who liked whatever they like about it, but even then they didn't like it enough compared to whatever else they're watching. Unless it's the only thing they're watching? I might be looking at this wrong, but the question still remains, what would happen if like 90% of those watching a series dropped it partway through?

I'm kinda sad to see Parryman doing so poorly. It's surprisingly one of my favorites this season. C'mon Noor, parry those bad ratings away! Wink

This season is pretty weak for me across the board. Usually, I think I rate at least half or 2/3 of what I'm watching at 4 or better because there are plenty of those to fill my time. This season I think 3/4 of what I'm watching can't seem to do better than 3 - 3.5 (with a few 2 and 2.5, which I rarely give). The rest are 4, with only 1 or 2 episodes so far that I gave a 4.5. I don't think I'm being harsher than usual...?

It's funny how vastly different the ratings are here in comparison to other sites. Nokotan, Vtuber, Narenare and Alya being at the top with other places but mid or bottom here, lol.

Sucks that Ramen Akaneko isn't ranked, it's really fun.

Also kind've surprised at how low Parry Everything is. I was expecting the gag to get old by now, but each episode still feels pretty decent to me.

I understand My Wife Has No Emotion not being everyone's cup of tea but it's a pity to not even see it ranked. I think the manga is a lot of fun and also thought-provoking once you get over the awkwardness of the initial premise and the first four episodes of the anime were quite faithful to the source material. (I know there were some quibbles about Mina's height in the first episode compared to how short she is in the first chapter of the manga but it's based on a manga from an artist who is very inconsistent when it comes to character heights so I can easily overlook that.)
