Maybe Demon Slayer S2 or the new jujutsu kaisen movie could do it... if not AOT S4 maybe?


I feel like both S2 of demon slayer and jjk movie will maintain close or above a 9 rating while it's airing and then drop a little while after.

Yeah, heard that whenever an anime gets higher up and close to the #1 ranking, AOT s4 for example, it dropped down partially because of the FMAB fanboys that purposely rated it a 1 to try and lower the overall score and prevent it from being #1.

Usually animes that are airing get to their highest ratings for a while, then progressively drop down. Who knows though, Fruits Basket does seem like a good anime, hoping for it's success.
Not in every case......
Example 86 is anime which had 7.8 while airing bit after it ended its 8.23
N fruits baskets got great stuff in it so hopefully it beats but will not stay long due to FMBA fanbase TCH


I think it's specifically more mainstream anime that quickly becomes popular and enters the top 50 leaderboards, they tend of have the largest changes when it's airing and a couple of weeks/months after it has finished airing. 86 only has around 250k total memebrs and only 60k people rated it.

Well jjk shibuya arc has the potential . Aot S4 part 2 will take the crown for first 5-6 ep and then fall rapidly . Honestly there are many shows that deserve above FMAB but they aren't . Csm won't overtake fmab . Fruits basket is on its way but personally I don't think it deserves that high spot . The infinity fortress arc of demon slayer has the potential . Good adaptation of steel ball run or berserk will easily win over FMAB . Vinland saga in my opinion deserves above FMAB . Now something unlikely like the anime adaptation of good night pun pun or vagabond might happen then they will easily go above FMAB and also a remake of anime of Pandora hearts . But nothing that is planned to air this year or next will overtake fmab . Also something from isekai re zero if it's season 3 and season 4 air in future then the arc 5 and hall of memories arc from arc 6 can take over FMAB


Punpun is my second favorite manga. But if it got an anime then people arent going to give it the rating it deserves. Anime fans just wont understand the series. At least not enough to break a 9.00, hell I doubt a proper punpun adaptation would break 8.75 honestly. I don't have much faith in anime onlys nowadays if im being honest.
He died doing what he wanted, no matter what, right? I bet he was happy.

Good luck with berserk Kouji Mori, you'll need all the help you can get. We believe in you.

Fruits basket:Final season's score is rising and is currently in the top 5.It may become #1
highly doubt that coz with only one ep left to air,it's rating can reach 9.09 or 9.10 at max
Also there is this thing called aging
Every anime starts to age at some point
Like clannad:afterstory was once at 9.35 but it's at 8.96 now
It isn't easy for just any anime to stand the test of time like FMAB has

Just this winter,AOT final season reached #3 and has been faaling ever since ending up and #11 or 12(it will go even down I think)

Fruits basket final season is something that could be in the top 20 for a long time but it's highly unlikely for it to take the no.1 spot


In my eyes only other anime worthy of taking the no.1 spot will be one piece(that is if it has an ending that shunnes everbody....but we all know one piece isn't ending any time soon so let's just wait for it and see)

Also it clannad were to be airing now with better direction and transitions then I think it would have been a great contender but that's all just in my mind is all

Rejoice frail mortals, as for you have not foreseen the rise of the Chinese Gintama x KFC ad.
It's ascendance is inevitable. A day, a year, a millennium—it matters not.
Whatever contenders's striving on the top is insignificant.

Can we ever have a normal conversation or forum about FMAB in these forums that isnt about scores? *sigh* ever since aot s4 started, these obnoxious forums just keep getting spammed, oh well, I never really liked talking on mal anime forums anyway. Atleast the manga side is 100x more chill, even tho although its not #1 its still also rated quite highly there. I wonder how tired the mods are over these forums

Yeah, punpun 100% deserves more recognition. And I agree its definitely something thats best as a manga. I honestly think unless it gets a really fucking good adaptation then it would just be a stain on the mangas legacy.

I feel like an artstyle akin to "The Girl from the Other Side" would compliment punpun heavily. Its a unique manga and it needs that extra effort if us punpun fans are expected to take it seriously.

Heres the artstyle I'm talking about. The Girl From the Other Side is a masterpiece of manga and I definitely reccomend at least watching the 15 minute OVA.

Nope. I feel that people still underestimate how much the FMA:B community are adamant on keeping it number one, Every season you just hear "Oh, Mushoku Tensei looks pretty popular, Maybe it'll be number 1" Like no, It's way harder than people think, It'll truly have to be one of a kind exceptional industry breaking masterpiece and satisfy the snobs and casuals. One of the very few anime that had the chance came short (AOT) so we're gonna have to wait for something even bigger than that.

jojo part 7 will easily dethrone fmab untill the 1 bombs begin . Re zero arc 6 holds that potential too . Can't say much on jobless reincarnation as I have just started reading the light novel . Why I mention these 3 because these three have the highest potential of getting a anime adaptation in future . Jjk shibuya incident arc and perfect preparation arc have that potential too. .

I can see Fruits Basket: The Final coming up to #2, but the big FMA fans will never let anything ever overtake it, a situation like what happened with AOT season 4 will probably happen if Furuba does climb up to #2.

I personally don't think so, One, Jojo's adaptation will be pretty far, It'll be hard to animate because of it's length and the horses, And we didn't even start part 6, Two, Even though Jojo is popular, It's a polarizing show, Things like AOT or FMA:B try to satisfy the majority and reach for a wide audience, Jojo is really out there and unique and does some thing very differently than the usual, Which may be phenomenal to some people, But I think many people will get turned off by these things

Re zero maybe will take it, But I won't bet on it, The last season fell in the ratings pretty quickly and many people think that Rezero is just waifus, Regardless if they're correct or not, I think it'll pull back the ratings a bit

Maybe JJK has the best chance since it's still starting and has really good reception but stil....I won't bet on it

I don't wanna seem pessimistic but in all of the 2010s, Probably the most full decade of all time, Nothing surpassed FMA:B even though it's has been 10 years, If these shows want to get the first spot, They'd at least have to surpass Shingeki's popularity and impact

(Btw, I'm not talking about these show's actual quality, I'm talking about their popularity and reception)
