Hello,

I saw this imgur post and I wanted to know where did the person found these datas. Do you have any ideas ? I looked in MAL API documentation but can't seem to find those datas.

It would be great to be able to see the best episodes from an anime, in the anime episode page for example.


Also, I created a program to be able to see top episodes from any anime, based on MAL Discussion Polls. It uses simple_html_dom to parse the pages. You can find it here on github, everything is explained.

Here is the results with the anime "Barakamon" :

However is it very slow (16sec for 4 episodes). Do you have any recommendations for a better parsing method ? Feel free to see my github and contact me there !

Thank you

Yeah it would be cool to have that as a feature. I wouldn't mind to see what the general public thought of X episode of Y anime then see what was more memorable for people. Pretty good recommendation koluffy.

It is a good idea but it needs to be executed well.

It is unfair to compare two shows with one being 94% loved it with 1000+ votes and another show (which is mostly rated by its own fans) and with 94% with 80 votes.

A huge difference!

If the number of votes can be taken into consideration then I agree with the suggestion.

Yes of course I totally agree on that, but my suggestion was to compare episodes from one anime only. But comparing other shows would be great too !

Also, as I am needing tech support for my github program, should I send a message in the "Games, Computers & Tech Support" ?

For only one anime seems easier to do, I like it better.

I dont know, I think the site has it own tech team.

I think this is what you mean? This is manual though, and only new airing anime.

MAL should implement this feature.

I think we have an answer from the "Games, Computers & Tech Support Rules" locked post :

Not quite, they are comparing the modification of the ranking of anime from the airing season over the weeks. My idea was more of a comparison between episodes from one anime, to see which episodes are the most popular.
