Sorry for the late start of the rankings this season; I ran into technical problems (aka vote spam).
Actually I'm not even 100% sure that I caught all of it, so future rankings might involve some minor retcon of those first 5 weeks.

I am surprised that Girls' Frontline is that low. I know that it is a dumb otaku show, but I thought that more people were going to like it.

Biggest problem with Girls' Frontline is it looks so drabby, and the gun action is really boring especially in comparison to the stylish, God Eater-like opening sequence. It doesn't help that the plot line of M4A1 finding her teammates is not really interesting. It's a real shame that a mobile game that's actually pretty popular gets a mediocre adaptation.

That 11 point drop for Sabikui Bisco seems weird to me. I don't see what was so different about episode 4 that would've made people tank it from how they'd been rating it. Community scores have been 4.1, 4.0, 4.2, and 4.0 (and 4.3 so far for ep 5, which isn't included). Even if people didn't like Tirol (and I haven't gotten that impression), I don't see where that drastic drop comes from. Then again, I don't understand any of this. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Very Happy

But even worse than this, I've noticed that my ratings for Vanitas ep 17 and Dress-Up Darling ep 6 keep adding half a star to what I input, no matter how many times I try correcting it. Am I the only one this is happening to? I know, "entertainment purposes only," but having the ratings widget inflate the ratings kinda diminishes the entertainment value. I reported it on the page, but thought I'd mention it here as well, to see if others report the same issue.

Also, why is Yashahime still on the list since it's no longer being reviewed?

There are other shows that are not being reviewed yet they're still on the list - like Cue! or Police in a Pod - and my guess is because you can still vote for them.

I'm interested in how Delicious Party Pretty Cure will rank next week, as the first episode aired at February 6.

Huh, you're right. I didn't notice that they changed from "popular enough to be reviewed" to "popular enough" this season.

The inflated score bug has been fixed, yay! But you should check your ratings for at least Vanitas and Dress-up Darling to see if they're what you intended. Maybe others that I wasn't rating. They didn't automatically change back to what I input, but I didn't expect they would.

I'd also like to give a kudo to the little pop-up alert for when you rate an episode when you missed rating the episode before it. Since series often don't show up on the list on weekends, sometimes I forget that I missed a week, so it's a helpful little addition. Smile

Sad that Salaryman's Club seems to be forgotten altogether. It has no discussion thread and doesn't show up here either

There's a discussion thread here. It does have an entry on the Your Score pages, but I guess not enough people are aware of it yet to make it "popular enough" to be included here. Sad Had it been in the Preview Guide that might've helped, but too late now.
