Spice and wolf is 2 cour
anime
Thursday, March 21, 2024
a cour is 11-13 episodes
so a 2 cour show will be around 24
Anime is broken up into 4 anime seasons for shows, each season a show runs through is refered to as a cour
Usually yes to both
some do not
many get multiple eds in a cour, very rarely a show has multiple ops in a cour
my one-hit kill sister got a mid season op switch for example (like 6 episodes in)
Or you can be monogatari, where every arc gets its own Ops, so you get 4-7 Ops a season
Replying to Polar_ #polar_ That's due to something in show happening to cause the change though right
Not always
I think it is neat when shows do new songs mid season since it is less common
Re:zero is the only one I can think of that basically never played its op or ed ever
at least in season 2
they really wanted to push how long those episodes were
I was thinking she'd have dog arms or something caused by mixing bones

Unless this animator in show works for Mappa, and it ends with her killing herself
it is not worth watching
Feels like it would work better as a short 3-4 min/ep
Not a full length show
lol
https://myanimelist.net/news/70737156 overlord movie is fall 2024
so +~6 months for us to actually see
also lmao frieren shot up about .15 at the finale
S2 already announced but that is not unexpected
well, they announced more, it could be Spooky's fear and be a movie
hopefully its a S2
crazy score distribution
There is a subset of people who will give 1s to things they dislike to drag the score down
FMAB has a 2.4% for the number of 1s for comparison
Here is FMAB for comparison
similar, but less crazy for the proportion of 10s
Anyways I think Frieren can possibly stay at number 1 on mal, but it depends how time goes for that
It is the right kind of broad appeal show that is well done to dethrone FMAB
So it does make sense, but only if you understand how scoring works
Sequels get an inherent boost because the people that hate it did not get to the sequel
long things get an inherent boost, because you need to watch more than 10% of a show for your score to count
so for one piece, you must watch 120+ episodes
before your score matters
frieren is not long enough to really benifit
I am mostly talking about 50, but realistically 100+ episode entries
where you have to watch essentially a full show worth of episodes in order to score it and have your score count
I feel like final seasons also get a boost
similar to the sequel thing
the only time seasons do not get a boost is if the season is actually worse in very noticable ways
like shield hero season 2 is like 1.5-2 points below season 1
for instance
Goblin Slayer S2
yeah, you have to actually fuck up. If you have the exact same quality, you usually have a 0.1-0.3 higher score than season 1
and finales if they nail the landing, people tend to vote higher
as you said
so kaguya S3 is as high as it is because only people who like kaguya made it that far, and they did a great job with the ending that season
There's some aspect of, people who only casually use MAL
coming back to rate something high after its over
yeah, there is a portion that only rates the last thing once it is over
