by On the 2nd, video streaming service ABEMA released its “mid-term rankings” for the new anime season currently airing in October. In the view count category, the otherworldly dark fantasy “Assassin, My Stats Are Clearly Stronger Than the Hero’s” took the top spot.
This ranking compiles viewing data from the first episode or premiere through the week of October 27th, combining live broadcasts and on-demand streaming, and compiles the top 5 works in two categories: “view count” and “comment count.”
The popular series “Stetuyo” is receiving praise for its stylish battle scenes and the protagonist’s “hidden strength,” with comments such as “The animation is seriously amazing” and “It lived up to my expectations!” Coming in second place was the sequel to the popular series “SPY×FAMILY,” Season 3, which maintained its popularity with comments such as “Anya is so cute” and “The Spitz song is great.” Meanwhile, in the comment count category, “Higashijima Tanzaburou Wants to Become a Kamen Rider” took first place.
The original work is a manga by Shibata Yuko. The theme of “playing serious Kamen Rider” seems to be a perfect match for the comments, with the comment section buzzing with comments such as “It’s full of style from the opening to the ending” and “It’s been a while since I’ve seen such a good anime.” Coming in second place is “Nohara Hiroshi’s Lunch Style,” which is also popular on Nico Nico Douga, and has received reactions such as “Hiroshi is super popular” and “I’ll definitely watch it again next week” as a “food terrorism” anime that depicts a passion for food. The current ranking results are as follows:
1st place: “As an assassin, my stats are clearly stronger than the hero’s.” 2nd place: TV anime “SPY×FAMILY” Season 3 3rd place: “I was almost killed in the depths of a dungeon by my trusted companions, but I got a gift, the ‘Infinite Gacha’, and got level 9999 companions, and got revenge on my former party members and the world, and got ‘Serves you right!'” 4th place: “A Material Gatherer’s Travels in Another World” 5th place: “Can I make one last request?”
1st place: “Tanzaburou Higashijima Wants to Become Kamen Rider” 2nd place: “Hiroshi Nohara’s Lunch Style” 3rd place: “Chitose-kun is in a Ramune Bottle” 4th place: “The Unemployed Hero: I Didn’t Really Need Any Skills” 5th place: “The Ghost of Grief Wants to Retire” Season 2
