I'm not speaking about popularity rankings though. I'm just saying they're not going to be as hard pressed for him coming back because they'll be able to accept it better.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.
Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
I don't think it has anything to do with them accepting Gohan's life choice. It's more that they don't really care if he's in the story or not, much like most of the secondary cast.kinisking wrote:I'm not speaking about popularity rankings though.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
Well, we don't know that. The fact that Gohan's new design and ultimate form returning was so hyped up makes me think they do care although I'm not sure.HeroR wrote:I don't think it has anything to do with them accepting Gohan's life choice.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
Toei may care because of money. The general audience, however, have shown that they're perfectly happy with it being the Goku and Vegeta show with guest star Trunks. They also seem to really love Krillin since his episodes got higher ratings than Gohan's Saiyaman episodes or even the Gohan episode from the Future Trunks Saga.kinisking wrote: Well, we don't know that.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
The ratings fluctuate like crazy when it comes to the percent. The placing is what matters (7th most of the time ) because if the ratings go down or up for everything then it can't be based on what super is showing. Besides , even if you ignore that the krillin episode that had a high rating had Gohan advertised in the NEP. Plus the Gohan episodes got a higher rating than the Goku versus hit rematch so I guess that means they don't care about hit and Goku? Besides the general audience is what'll give Toei money obviously. Lastly, the high Trunks rating also has to do with the return of a villian, an evil fucking Goku, and the start of a new arc.HeroR wrote:Toei may care because of money.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
The fact remains that all Gohan central episode don't score that well compared to others. Also, the Goku vs. Hit rematch, Episode 72 - TV 5.6% (5th), happened during Christmas in Japan. Even then, it was a .3 different.kinisking wrote: The ratings fluctuate like crazy when it comes to the percent.

And this new arc is billed as the return of several character who haven't had spotlight in years, yet the audience don't seem to care about that.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
Like I said, its the ranking of the episode that shows how popular the content was, not the actual rating. If every show is down the weak a Gohan episode airs, is it really a negative for Gohan ?HeroR wrote:The fact remains that all Gohan central episode don't score that well compared to others.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
No. I said that the Japan fandom don't care about Gohan in that way. They may like seeing him, but they're seem perfectly happy just having Goku and Vegeta run the entire show. And the ratings are important since, like I said, almost every Gohan focused episode has seen an overall down turn in ratings, outside of this recent episode. It isn't just all about rankings. And speaking of which...kinisking wrote: Like I said, its the ranking of the episode that shows how popular the content was, not the actual rating.

Good ratings for this new arc. Although, everything is up this week. I guess even the Japanese fans wanted to see Gohan do something at least over Buu.Khin wrote:These are TV share ratings for February 20 - February 26 (ep #80 of Super):

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
I'm saying that the ratings went down for other series those weeks too, so there's no way Gohan caused the ratings to drop. It's just a coincidence. Just like this week was a coincidence that it rose. The percentages are good because it means more people watched that week, but the ranking is what really matters. It shows how good it did in comparison to other shows. If the percentage dropped, but the ranking stays the same it means that there was an overall change amongst all the shows. That means what happened in super that week isn't the cause of the ratings dropping.HeroR wrote:No. I said that the Japan fandom don't care about Gohan in that way.

I'm with you here, although sometimes the numbers aren't big, the position is what matters, I remember when Super reached 2nd place but the rating didn't reach 7%. Not many people watched it but it was the 2nd most watched anime that week, and that is what matters at the end.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
Max placement of Super was 3rd place in Episode 47 and 25. 25 only had 5.7
Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
Seems nothing changed. Guess the new arc didnt attract more people. In japan anyways.
But anyways, DBS is mostly about seeling stuff, so even if it will have poor ratings, but still sells merchandise it wont be canceled.

Nothing's changed since the beginning of super. You guys expect too much. Besides it's in the top 10 of all anime since it's conception, it's ratings are great.buutenks wrote:Seems nothing changed. Guess the new arc didnt attract more people. In japan anyways.

I don't see it. Unless you are talking about DVR ratings, then DBS even reached 1st place. Info is on the first page of this thread.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread
Good rating. I hope that the ratings continue upwards slightly, but with how unpredictable the TV viewers can be, nothing is guaranteed.
Spoiler:
