Hunter x Hunter is now ranked 7th all time.

Gintama: The Final is now number 2. (Gintamas now make up 5 of the top 12).

Koe no Katachi dropped to 13th.

Am I the only one to notice this? I am not super happy about a random Gintama movie now taking number two spot when barely 50k people have seen it...

It's not just a "random" gintama movie. It's the finale for one of the most loved series on the website

of course it's gonna get high. and yes, obviously the rankings won't be the same forever

"Random Gintama movie"... lmao
Why do these people care so much about scores and rankings on an anime site

Gintama movie's high score is mainly because of the collective love the SHOW has gained over the years. Fans are going to give it a high score because of their emotional attachment with it even if it's not that good (which I highly doubt).

If you look at the movie's stats, it has started gaining quite a lot of 1/10 scores most probably from other fandoms.

The rankings will inevitably change.

probably has to do with the fact there are like two new entries in the top 5 from this year alone, also I’m pretty sure Hunter x Hunter is just dropping in score on its own since there are more and more members being added to the show

Your opinion is biased as you voted 10 for the Gintama movie. Can't trust you to be objective on this, sorry

Well, is obvious that this movie would have a high MAL score thanks to its fandom, despite the quality of the same.

I don't particularly want to jump in as third party on this convo, but this argument makes no sense.

"Your opinion is biased as you voted 10 for the Gintama movie."
- voted 5 for
- voted 1 for
- didn't watch
- dropped

^You could replace the underlined portion with any of these and it would be the same argument. Literally everyone could be equally biased in this sense?

it didn't just get re-done, been like that for a while and it updates frequently (which is a good thing).

though i am a fan of gintama, i sort of agree with you it's a bit ridiculous how it dominates the top anime list, but our opinions matter very little to what ranks where and due to how math works, along with people's watching and rating habits, you get something like 5 entries of gintama in the top 12.

personally, i think they should merge entries and have the score of the franchise be the average between all seasons or something, but i'm pretty sure many have already suggested it and MAL refuses to do so for all sorts of reasons.

so you kind of need to accept that the top anime list of MAL, is a bit less of an ideal measure of what the western community believes to be the best anime and more of a showcase of the most psychotic devoted and passionate fanbases.

Since your question is about the movie getting into the Top 10, only someone who has watched the movie can give an informed opinion. If you are looking for someone who has given it a lower score to agree with you then that opinion ain't objective either.

I guess to technically answer the question, yes, the top list did just get re done.

That's kinda how it works.

Who cares dude when did popularity indicate what should be at the top. It's the final story for Gintama and it has a very dedicated and loving fanbase they overwhelmingly liked it. What do you want MAL to artificially change ratings to suit your preferences?

The ratings are "re-done" aka updated several times per day. Welcome to the real world, where change is the only constant. Check the video, not a single title of 2006's MAL top 10 is still in it today.

Are you sure you meant to reply to me? I was challenging OP's statement that another user's opinion couldn't be trusted because of a score they gave
