Current percentage of Nicolive voters that gave the latest episodes of the Winter cour AND the currently airing Spring cour shows top marks, making for a decently accurate popularity ranking list.How do their tastes measure up to your own, anons?
>>287375847Note that this week's episodes of Precure and Pokemon counted as winter cour episodes for some reason. These shows will join the spring list next week.
>>287375847Looks like it's going to be a fight for last place again.
>>287375871Precure WON
Who cares what a sample size of 30 bugmen think about anime. These threads have never once had a good anime in the top 5.
>>287375847>Aipri in first>>287375871>Precure in first Little girl shows are powerful.
Where is Akanebanashi
>>287375847>Yomi no Tsugai 77Zoomers HATE it. Sad, probably my favorite of the new shows.
>>287375956Dumb isekaifag
>>287375847>making for a decently accurate popularity ranking listJust like the flat earth makes for a “““““““decently”””””””” accurate model of earth because I went outside and looked at the horizon. Drooling baby retard tier interpretation of correlation
>>287375980Not on Nicolive for some reason. It's an odd show to leave out.
>>287375847Needy girl overdose is an original story that has nothing to do with the games plot correct?
>>287375847Damn, that's a huge jump up for Kirio Fan Club.
>>287375871The ningen teacher anime getting a 74 ruins all of their credibility. It was the worst anime I've seen in years
>>287376056Sort of. It's a sequel taking from multiple endings of the game from what we've seen so far. But it's definitely original and not an adaptation.
>>287376105Well that's shit.
>>287376056original sequel to the game
>>287376105I assume people expected an adaptation, which is why it rated so low?
>>287375847>>287375871Why are the most kino anime in last? Are you sure the list is not backwards?
>>287375847Snowball Earth is getting the reception it deserves.
>>287375847>nothing above 90Fairly weak start to the season it seems>NGO at 30Lol, lmao
what an absolutely dire season of anime
Needy Girl Overdose is the Shibou Yuugi of the season
>>287376472>>287376490Most shows haven't premiered yet, it'll improve.
>They hate it.And we do too.What a fucking disgrace.
>>287375847NGO confirmed KINO
>>287375847Pretty reasonable to be honest. This season is very weak.
>>287375847I thought shit like needy girl overdose would be liked by the nip otakus, I guess I was wrong.
>>287375847Needy Girl Overdose is the most popular anime here.
>>287375956Those 30 samurai have the best taste in the world.
>>287377044As an anime only I kinda liked it.
>>287375847why are bugmen so retarded
>>287375847why is hairy pokey hat potters pulling all the way down in the 70’s, I thought you guys told me this story was loved throughout Japan and was the best most popular mangaIt’s getting dragged by the fucking maid who only eats food show, she literally only eats food the whole time, what gives?
>>287377394Looks about right to me. What seems strange to you?Or are you just coping?
very funny how people fucking hate Shunkashuutou but I think it's basically just as shit and melodramatic as VEG.Goes to show how much dogwater sakufags can stomach so long as some animation is thrown their way
>>287377407Author is very publicly critical of PM Takaichi's planned domestic surveillance program, and that is politically controversial.
>>287375847First time ever I see an actually bad anime down there, pretty disappointed by Reincarnation no Kaben, but then again you see Dorohedoro up there, what a garbage list, no real fan would rate that garbage adaptation that high.
>>287377549Takaichi being a less unhinged female trump is hilarious.
>>287377384And that's the issue since you are seeing something that frankly misses the point of the game.
>>287376052It's free on Youtube, isn't it?
>>287377000Yeah, like what?
>>287377687I doubt that's the issue, the drama around NGO was about how it shits on a certain aspect of internet culture that directly refers to NND, the retards must still be seething.
>>287375847Little girls win!
>>287375871>tfw precure might approach 100% with arcana shadow’s debutLooking forward to tomorrow!
>>287378151Globally, not in Japan
Looks like a complete meh for everything this season, and I'm completely vindicated in being very hesitant to pick up much after dropping basically everything I was watching last season
>>287375847Rough season? The only one of these I've watched so far is LuluttoLilly and that was pretty good.
>>287375847leave it to nips to have dogshit taste once againnever disappoint
>>287377573How bad is it? I would have given it a shot if it wasn't censored.
>>287375847Did anybody watch Komekami Girls? I don't even like sols but I need to ascertain how cute and funny a show is
>>287379642It's a short tourism anime with a miniscule budget and produced by amateurs in every respectIt's also untranslated so don't bother unless you can understand moon and are interested in rice recipes and rice trivia
>>287377209Why would a show that absolutely mocks smelly fat otaku trash (and rightfully does so I may add) be liked by the fat disgusting subhumans it mocks?
>>287375847>>287375871>Your show pushes boundaries >That's a below 35 Nico score for you, chumNever change.
>>287375871Could be because Precure airs on a one week delay, the episode for this week airing tomorrow will play next week on Nico.
>>287375847Once again Nicolive is missing Tensura which made it into the top 5 of anime TV rankings which none of the shows listed here for this season were capable of doing... which shows that Nicolive is worthless when it comes to representing what "the Japanese speak".
>>287380138Would make sense for Precure, but Pokemon is just delayed by a few hours.
>>287375847>no Sengoku Japan>no AwajimaDamn, I wanted to know how elevens liked those.
>>287380467I've seen people praise Nippon Sangoku on 5ch, but I'm not sure how representative that is.
>>287380217OP just lie and throw halfassed insults when called out.
>>287380603It's the same kind of audience as Nicolive, so representative enough.
>>287375871Damn, so Precure beat Rider in the end after all
>>287375847NGO really is the spiritual successor to Shiboyugi huh
>>287375847Needy girl dogshit is getting the reception it deserves
Nothing even slightly watchable this season other than JJK
>>287381146Based.
>>287375847This season is fucking dire holy shit
>>287375847No 90+Grim season
>>287375847Are the 4 episodes of Classroom of the Elite in 1 vid and share 1 rating or they somehow air only episode 1(of 16)?
>>287376161It's half "wow I watched western movies how cool is that reference" and half "we live in a society" preachy shit.
>>287376458disagree, it's a fun show
Explain how you can enjoy Precure. Every episode follows the same structure and it's been doing it for two decades. The only decent ones are Smile and Heartcatch. I can't think of a more boring Mahou Shoujo and yet it now has a monopoly on the genre and otaku eat it up like it's gold in what I'm pretty sure is just them pretending to like it to fit in.
>>287382231It's one shared rating for all four episodes.
>>287375847AiPri and Meitantei Precure have been really strong. I always worry that little girl anime will die with the birthrate as it is, but I'm happy that what we are getting is good.
>>287377549Is she against it because of privacy concerns or because it records niggas, chinks, and kurds commiting crimes?
>>287382417The current season at least changes the format up with the girls actually solving mysteries. I think you are right about there being no competition though. Other series like the Tokyo Mew Mew remake and Mewkle Dreamy were so bad that it's no wonder people stick to Precure.
>>287382943The first Cocotama series was very good and got extremely high ratings on Nicolive.
>>287382910>スパイ防止法Basic search keyword for your purposes. The intent is to create a Japanese CIA, with the focus turned inward and combine that with data sharing with the 5 Eyes countries. The justification is anti-espionage, but the enforcement is heavily directed inwards. The program is a revival of this 80s bill that didn't pass>https://ja.wikisource.org/wiki/国家秘密に係るスパイ行為等の防止に関する法律案Which is extremely broad regarding the government's ability to declare any information they don't want shared a 'State Secret' and the limitations on the enforcement methods are basically non-existent, only defined as 'not unduly infringing on human rights'. It also long had the backing of the Unification Church/Moonies - the cult that got Abe killed - as it played into their desire to get closer to America.
Holy shit we've got three flops.
Kobayashi and Luluka carrying Meitantei Precure on their own. Because of the one week delay Arcana Shadow's transformation(?) and debut should score episode 11 pretty high.
>>287383383Anything involving cults is bad, but are you sure she is against it because of privacy and cultist concerns and not because it might impact minorities?
>>287375847I didn't know Liar Game got an anime adaptation, is it good?
>>287375847I don't see the isekai shitpost and that's a shame (it should be near the top btw)
>>287383732She is against it because the law might theoretically be used against foreign liberal activitism such as ones for Palestine, BLM, LGBT, etc. It's a VERY bad law for privacyfags, but her disapproval stems from fear of it affecting her side.
>>287383732>>287383971https://x.com/SyuppanRouren/status/2039169241988153628This was the post she linked. Looks like she deleted her quote/repost (however that works). Prolly got spicey.The complaint is generally free speech.
This thread got weird
>snowball earthOuch...
>>287375847The bottom three deserve those scores. Kaben at least feels interesting enough to make you want to read the manga. Ghost concert has room for improvent. I have no hope for Pretentions Girl Overdose.
>>287376161The first episode was pretentious schizobabble nonsense that leaned on animation gimmicks to hide its lack of substance. It's potentially another trainwreck like Ergo Proxy or Metallic Rouge that tries so hard and fails to be "deep."
>>2873862747 out of 10 people think is the greatest thing ever, sounds good.
>>287375956
>>287375847Why is Needy Girl so low rated?
>maoLooks like another rumiko stinker
>>287387228Because it laughs at the regular NND user.
>>287382417it's literally no different from the average moeshit show except it's for toddlers and there's an actual story
>>287375847My favorite so far is Koori no Jouheki, but I suppose it won't be on the list. I wonder what the nips think of it.
>>287375956Then why are you here every single time to say you don't care about it? Surely you did care a lot. It must be because your favourite anime never got to the top, since you have dogshit taste. And your favourites must be isekai shit, so you're definitely brown. LOL, KYS.
>>287382417Cunny ToT
>>287387111Ergo Proxy is really good at the deep stuff though. It's just incapable of having a decently constructed framing around it.
>>287375847>wokelier doing like shit Noice
>>287382894Little girl anime died 2 decades ago
>>287382943Honestly Princession blows PreCure's last season out of the water (not hard to be fair, Idol went to shit halfway through) and in some aspects is better than any pc season.
>>287387517Someone should say it because you will have retards here believing they are representative of anything other than the dozen boomers streaming anime on Nico. At least people figured out Amazon Stalker stats are fucking useless now.
>>287387517Even Isekai occasionally does okay
Why do these always omit the viewcount of the episodes
>>287375847NGO is too preachy and condescending, even if its messages have some merit.
>>287375847NGO is kino. Not surprised bugman slave cattle japs are getting filtered by it.
>>287375847>NGO that lowExcellent taste as usual
>>287382894Modern little girls shows are pure garbage though. Children deserve better than that slop.
>>287376512Kino, then.
>>287387228They're malding
>>287389211>>287390107Otaku who gave up on life hate anime with subtext.
>>287387228It mocks internet culture, escapism etc
NGOThe thinking man's anime
>>287390268Why would they bother with this after Magical Destroyers crashed and burned so bad?
>>287391494The stench emanating from this picture...
So I take it this new Precure series is one of the most popular ones?
>>287391980Nothing on the OP's chart has relation to popularity. The rating there is viewer satisfaction. Without view counts you don't know if 100, 1000, 10000 or 50000 placed their rating.
>>287392062We do have view counts, you retarded dumbfuck.
I expected NGO to be there but Ghost Stories was not a 38. I'm not expecting anything of it but some shitty turn brain off show at least for the one or two more eps I'll give it but even if I end up dropping it.it's nowhere in the ballpark of NGO lmao.
>>287392150Point out in OP's chart where the view counts are.
>>287392170It was pretty awful, anon. >38I think that's higher than any episode of Solo Leveling, nips just don't want "turn off your brain" shows.
>>287392176Point out where in my post I said anything about the chart in the OP.
>>287392634Who cares about the content not in the OP? Make your own thread if you want to talk about your thing and not the OP.
>>287375847Is Precure really that good? The franchise has been around for like decades now and JP viewers still seem to love each new entry. Where do I begin with Precure?
>>287392690>Who cares about the content not in the OP?(You) are literally the only one going on about view counts. Multiple times a week for literal years.
>>287392730>Is Precure really that good?Yes. Unfortunately to the point very few studios are willing to make competing shows, so if you like the genre, the new Precure series is often your only option.>Where do I begin with Precure?Each series is standalone, so you can either start at the beginning of the current one, or pick an older series with a theme or character design that interests you. The current show has a detective theme.
>>287392730Pick nearly any season. I'd recommend Splash Star. >>287391980It's specifically Arcana that's insanely popular because Toei capitalised on the post Covid cutecore culture shift towards dark aesthetics zeitgeist (Kuromi went from a top 20 Sanrio character to a top 10 one during lockdown and is now a top 3 one dunking on Hello Kitty and My Melody in popularity) while also capitalising on the fandom's own desire for a proper dark and evil cure after the recent All Star movie villain and the bit of mc corruption at the end of HS. She has done literally jack shit in the anime so far and the most we saw of her transformed was a foot but her popularity exploded to insane degrees off of design and concept alone, to the point where just after the initial leaks she was already huge, she got enormous amounts of fanart before the season even started, and has kept getting more even from people who've never associated with the franchise much (Asanagi for example). She's no joke the single most popular character in the franchise's history solely because she was created at the exact perfect moment where the world was rabid for a villain magical girl.
>>287392896It's a really interesting thing to study. As you said, we barely know anything about her and she's done jackshit, and for all we know she might end up being a terribly-written character by the end of the series. Yet she's the most popular girl in the franchise. She's carried solely by people's imaginations of her.
>>287392896Reminds me somewhat of what happened to Yurika from Aikatsu.
>>287392769>YesEh. Maybe it was true once, but even the best seasons suffer from the year long yearly format, and in the last few years the show has started to decline both in terms of average season quality (Wonderful was good but both HS and Idol had huge issues) and also in terms of becoming fossilized in its own rules. Nothing post Healing Good has been as good as it and it was already a step down from Star Twinkle, though ST itself was a highlight above many previous seasons. The current era feels stagnant and while I have hopes for SD given the pedigree of its writer I do not have hopes for the franchise given how Toei is managing it. Its stranglehold on the genre has become a plague if anything. A huge reason why people who liked Princession did so is that it does so much stuff that a PreCure season would never even think of doing. There's a whole slice of life episode focused on the villain team where the MCs barely appear. It feels genuinely different and fresh. It helps that the Idol season it was airing against fumbled so incredibly hard in the second half while Princession both had an amazing final stretch and completely dunked on it in terms of songs with over twice as many as Idol had, literally having more songs than episodes, and even more if you count unreleased ones and B sides, and using a new recording for each episode. It's a shame its first few episodes are pretty rough and turned people off while Idol had an amazing first half cour.
>>287393026I just hope it means we get a hundred more manga and anime trying to also capitalise on the dark meguca boom because evil magical girls are my fetish.
>>287392769>>287392896Is her Precure show good? I like her design. She makes my dick tingle. She's got a lot of sexy fanart.
>>287382894I'll tell you this much, I don't think the main demographic is little girls
>>287393308Gee, ya think?
>>287393273It's okay, but it's hard-carried by her, Tsubasa, and Battamonda.
>>287383383>the Unification Church/Moonies - the cult that got Abe killedTo be clear, supporting that cult is what got Abe killed, the assassin was a child of a victim of the cult.
>>287393273It's only not the worst show in recent memory because last season happened, but it's not universally bad. It mostly suffers from very confused plot writing but the character writing is good enough.
>>287393352I will now watch your show.
>>287392305>nips just don't want "turn off your brain" shows.please explain the science of why an intelligent niconico viewer likes a dumb comedy like Kanan-sama then
>>287394481It's fun.
>>287376052The funny thing is that Watanare was also free on YouTube and still dominated the spoken word section on Nicovideo
>>287392305>nips just don't want "turn off your brain" showsHilariously wrong when precure is the most brain off slop ever, but yeah GC was just bad.
>>287393857>>287393621Aww, that sucks. Sorry for the late response. I went out to get lunch. What would you recommend then? I noticed that each Precure show is like 50 episodes long, so it's a big time investment. I want to make sure it's worth my while.
>>287396466Why not just start the current show, it's only on episode 10 so far.
>>287392730No, it's just a show for little kids. By this I mean that it's lazily written, cheap looking, repetitive as hell. And insultingly safe. Even in their recent attempts to make 'adult' spin-offs.Still, if you want to try, I think that HeartCatch and Tropical Rouge have their merits compared to other seasons. HC is quite stylish and serious, while TR is almost a moe SoL.
>>287391494Bitch did nothing but eat ice cream, what the fuck.
>>287383732He just told you that the law would rape Japan to Hell with a bunch of glowies and even sell out to America, and all you care about is if the author is worried that an Indian might get caught up in it?
>>287393128 Pretty much this. The franchise hit a point where it’s allergic to taking risks. You can feel the committee oversight in every plot beat now. Even when the staff tries to shake things up it’s always within the same rigid toyetic scaffolding. Comparing it to something like Princession just makes it obvious how boxed-in PreCure is - different villains, different aesthetics, but structurally it’s the same ride every year.Healing Good really was the last time it felt like they had something to *say* instead of just something to sell. I’ll still tune in because I’m too deep in the hole, but that sense of surprise is basically gone. At this point we’re just arguing over which flavor of safe we prefer.
>>287398832>You can feel the committee oversight in every plot beat nowI really think this is what fucked over Idol specifically because that season was clearly going somewhere and then it suddenly wasn't and one of its key plot points was dropped. I maintain that everything makes sense if Kiss actually was supposed to be taken over by Darkine, and once that didn't happen the writing was left spinning its wheels with no direction.
>>287396466Starting with current season is never a bad choice, except when the season suddenly becomes bad, so up to you if you want to take that risk.The very first season is still good but there's a known issue with the franchise where season 3 (Splash Star) is basically a remake/soft reboot after S2 was a direct sequel to S1. At the time this caused people to dislike it. In hindsight people kind of agree Splash Star is better and it's one I'd recommend.Heartcatch is the "best season" and a safe pick, but in its same style Yes 5 and Fresh are fine too (I like Fresh better because it's basically proto HC and the modern precure blueprint but it is pretty quality at times). Star Twinkle is one of the better seasons and one of the odder ones in terms of what it does, which is a plus. Go Princess gets the good animation budget if that's important. Wonderful is probably the best of the current era, but a bit atypical. Smile has a lot of porn of it and a distinct visual style. Or you can just look at the posters and see which cast turns you on the most.Just don't pick Dokidoki.
>>287397485>sell out to AmericaNigga, Japan is a vassal state and Tokyo was infested with every glowie agency from KGB to Stasi during the 80s. The big five still infest Japan even after the cold war ended. This law is uber retarded, but saying it will give glowies an edge ignores the fact that glowies already have an edge. >>287382910Shirahama is against it out of a irrational fear that it will affect minorities. Everyone should oppose it, but her reason to oppose this law is retarded.
>>287375871Damn people really hated Shibo Yuugi
>>287375847>Isekaid as vending machine is not bottomHoly GRIM.
>>287375847>>287375871>Kamen Rider>PrecureTOEI won so hard even if for Toujima all they did was greenlit the projectI'm legitimately surprised by how great the new Precure because the previous one by that writer was just kinda OK, I guess they're really giving the writers more creative freedom now>>287402192NGO was controversial and Reincarnation no Kaben despite the manga being mildly successful this adaptation is on the level of Tokyo Ghoul RE season 2 in terms of pacing so naturally everyone hates this adaptation
looks like NGO is the kino of this season
>>287383777Doesn't matter if it's good since the ending is still gonna suck
>>287393308The demographic is little girls just like how Kamen Rider is for little boysThe thing with both is that despite both shows being mainly toy commercials for those demographics they're also made so that the whole family can watch these shows together, so they way they accomplish this is by inserting fanservice for both mom and dad and not sugarcoating anything fucked up
>>287383732According to Japanese sources, many politicians in Japan's Liberal Democratic Party have cult beliefs and do not believe in Shinto, Japan's national religion.Shinto, Japan's state religion, is a laughing stock; Japanese people would rather believe in cults than Shinto.
>>287404345It just adds flavor to the holidays, i don't think anyone has ever taken shinto seriously in centuries
>>287377661She is even more right-wing than the Japanese right wing. Her relationship with Tarō Asō, a leader of the Japanese right wing, is extremely poor because, in the eyes of large, powerful Japanese families, she is merely a lowly commoner. To seize absolute power, she is attempting the same thing as Donald Trump: to instigate a war with China and become a wartime president. This would maximize her interests and weaken her political rivals within the Liberal Democratic Party. Even if Japan loses the war, she could seek political asylum in the United States. Recently, many news media controlled by the Japanese right wing have criticized her actions as too radical and insane, completely deviating from the original plan of the Liberal Democratic Party. Now, even Japanese right-wing organizations dislike this eccentric woman.
>>287404332They also both acknowledge that they have very sizable groups of adult fans. Both Kamen Rider and Super Sentai have done official spinoff productions aimed at adults.
>>287375847>needy girl lastseems like Carl's show, /a/ is the only place that likes it

>>287402592I feel the same way. Idol was boring but letting the girls actually solve mysteries keeps things way more entertaining. Also mother+daughter duo is cute, especially in the context of the last episode.
