Why wouldn't it?
Sometimes I wish text expressed tone of voice; I think you misunderstood me. I've got optimism that it will stay in the top ten.
No, I understood what you said, I'm asking why wouldn't it be in the top 10? Super's always in the top 10, so why would the last 4 episodes be any different?

Why? I don't know? Maybe a sweeps week happens. Are there still sweeps weeks? Maybe a big franchise's movie airs in prime time? Olympics?

You're asking me to debate, but I don't have a strong enough opinion on this one way or the other to do so. Please ask someone more adamant about the topic if you're looking for a debate. I'm not invested enough to provide that for you.

I'm not asking to debate, I'm just wondering why you think now of all times Super even has a chance of dropping out of the top 10 when it hasn't in its entire run.

Then I guess I just worded myself wrong. The stuff I listed were the only things I could think of to support it. I really think Super will be fine and stay in the top ten.

I think it'll be 7th for the next couple weeks, 6th for 130 if that's the big UI episode, then end at 7th for 131.

Episode 121 - TV 4.0% (7th)
Episode 122 - TV 4.2% (5th)
Episode 123 - TV 4.5% (7th)
Episode 124 - TV 4.6% (7th)
Episode 125 - TV 4.6% (7th)
Episode 126 - TV 4.8% (8th)
Episode 127 - TV 4.9% (7th)
Wouldn't be surprised if it keeps this up, though it will be interesting to see if 130 or 131 has the higher rating.
It wonder if we could hit a 6 before Super ends.

I think 130 and 131 both have a very, very good chance of being over 6.0.

Super's reaching its finale, it really should cause an increase in ratings. I still say ratings don't mean as much as they once did, but that difference between DB and OP is bothering me a little. They used to be a lot closer :(

It's be rather depressing if Ultra Instinct and the climax of the arc doesn't increase ratings. Super looks like it might end with low viewership

This forum is so over-dramatic that it's not even funny.

We are so close to a rating of a 5. I'm still hoping it happens for Super's finale.

I think it's possible the break weeks will help Super achieve that because it's during break weeks historically that Toei's twitter goes about advertising the series more heavily; like I could see them doing that thing where they post a couple screenshots each day the week leading towards.

Maybe, but I still think that this week's break will help build up hype for 129 anyway.
