DVR Rating: 16-22 of November
1st: Lupin III - 100.0
2nd: Yokai Watch - 82.2
3rd: One Piece - 75.3
4th: Doraemon - 72.7
5th: Detective Conan - 58.7
6th: Mobile Suit Gundam - 57.6

A stable week, only change was The Perfect Insider losing it's 10th place to Kamen Rider. I'm interested to see next week, the effects of the Tagoma episode.

TV ratings top 10 - November 30~December 6 (episode 22)

Sazae 14.1
Chibi Maruko-chan 10.1
Crayon Shin-chan 10.0
Doraemon 8.8
Detective Conan 8.1
One Piece 8.0
Dragon Ball Super 5.8
Kindaichi Case Files R 5.3
Go! Princess Pretty 4.3
Pokemon XY & Z 3.7

It seems Kindaichi lost steam. Yokai Watch took a break, that's why we're seeing Pokemon back in the top 10.

Well, beating Kindaichi is the best we can hope for at this point. There's no way to break through the top 6. Impressed to see Precure hanging in there.
On hiatus.

Wow difference between 6th and 7th place is pretty big. However that's maybe because Yokai watch is missing. Is Yokai Watch a toei series? Just out of curiosity.

The studio is OLM, the same as Pokemon.

Also, I was totally expecting the ratings to be higher. I give up on trying to predict high ratings. :D

Yokai has lower ratings than DB and Kindaichi, so it wouldn't change much. Only difference would be kicking Pokemon out of the top 10, but that's it.

3rd: Doraemon - 73.3 (Up 1)
4th: One Piece - 72.9 (Down 1)

Side-note: One Punch Man continues it's steady rise.

It'll be interesting to see what happens when OPM is over. It's only 13 episodes.

Depends of the shows that will premiere in the Winter Season. We had competition from Arslan Senki during the Summer Season. Most likely it will be replaced by another anime that's able to generate the necessary hype.
I can see us getting back into the fight for 5th place the moment U6 Arc begins. I find it very difficult for a new show to displace the old guard (where I include DB).
DB has been facing difficulties because of the repeated material from very recent movies. The in-between new material isn't enough for people to tune in consistently.

Well it did better then Kamen Rider Ghost did on DVR which is cool seeing that Kamen Rider is a bigger money marker to Toei and Bandai in Japan.

Show looks quite stable now, lost some of its audience after first few episodes but that's hardly unexpected. It's definitely on a way better trajectory than GT was at this stage

Definitely not. All the praise for Sorachi and Sunrise. :wink:

That seems concerning because this week One Piece didn't fall along with it.

The other week DBS had a 5.0 and One Piece a 7.3 but this week DBS is lower and One Piece is much higher.

I would guess more people probably tuned into One Piece to see Law's Gamma Knife attack animated.

Yikes. That's a really low rating. It seems as though the ROF arc is losing steam and following the leaks from the Super manga in V-Jump, maybe people are tuning out and waiting for something new.

Isn't this rating the joint worst we've had? I can't remember OP performing this well the last time our ratings were this poor either.
Hopefully next week we will see an improvement, if not people are clearly sick of this arc.

Technically it's the worst because at least last time it had a 4.7% it was 7th place. Now it has a 4.7% and its in 9th place.

This rating are depressing.
Kai never left top 10, but Super is that close. Still, its understandable.

I wanted to say Universe 6 arc, a new arc, would be the true test for Super. But hardly things get any harder than surive in top 10, retelling recent content.
Hang in there.
