Big thanks to (the almighty) kuroshiroi and (the chosen one) vindemon64 for helping out this week.

Points Criteria
Every week:
  • +1 point for each user who has anime under "Currently Watching" or "Completed" that week on MAL
  • Double the anime's "Currently Watching" points for the week if 4 or less players have it on their active team
  • +25 points for each forum post in the anime's episode discussion threads in the previous two weeks (counted every two weeks)


Scored Only Once:
  • +2000 points for each group that fansubs the anime in English (starting from 1st episode) Joint projects count only once. Fansub groups MUST have an IRC channel or a website to be counted.

  • +1500 points for each group that fansubs the anime in English (starting after episode 1 of the anime)
  • -750 points if dropped by a fansub group that started in the middle
  • +10000 points if licensed in America during the season (restricted to 1 (one) license per anime). If anime is licensed before season begins then points are awarded in first week. (Licenses shall be defined by AnimeSuki's License Database excluding Crunchyroll "licenses", which are counted as a sub)
  • +1000*(unweighted score) points for score ratings on MAL upon Week 7
  • +2000*(unweighted score) points for score ratings on MAL at the end of FAL season

Will the SubsFuckingWhere subs for Senkou no Night Raid be changed to the full 2000 points instead of 1500 next week if they release episode 1 sometime this week?

If they release the first episode before the end of the season, we'll un-half-way it.

Nope, they used Rumbel's subs, i.e. the translator is the same. We go by individual translations. If Rumbel happens to drop while Pretentious has released more episodes, we might give Pretentious half-way points.

How did you guys get 98 discussion posts for Kiss x Sis? I'm looking at episodes 2 and 3 discussions, both of which began after the week 2 and that's at least 120 something. Unless I'm not so clear on how you guys count discussion points?

Damn, should've aced after all. Oh well, it would've only bumped me up another place. If I'd not been so stupid in Week two I'd be first right now. Meh, 5 places up this week, hopefully another 3 next, and then keep going with the perfect team till final week.

Not much to do these weeks for me since I already aced Angel Beats and Kiss x Sis is failing on the bench.

By the way I noticed Chinlamp is not the only one with the "perfect team", there is also Kentai, who incredibly is behind him despite his mistakes ;P

I was really sure that Hakuoki would suck, and Mayoi would not be as popular as it is due to there being a cat related harem last FAL season (Nyan Koi!) but that doesn't seem to be the case. Though, they still aren't as good as the ones I've picked, even if not by much, so that's good.

Also, I chose KissxSis because it intrigued me, having both an OVA series and a TV series running at the same time, and I was sure that there couldn't be that much difference. And it seems as though I was right, as it's had a lot of people drop it to watch the OVA, but more people also dropped it cos it's not spectacular.

I am right on your tail :P
The first four places all have the same active team at the moment, so you're not getting ahead of me, I can tell you that ^^ As a result, I'm not getting any higher and have essentially lost, which is why I'm close yet so far :(

Of course, there's the mildly possible chance of Heroman getting licensed in week 8 or so, which might propel me to first place, since I'm the only one out of the current top four with that, but that's extremely unlikely and won't make up for the fact I'm lacking Ichiban. 5 weeks of Ichiban would negate a license, so I really need Mayoi to be licensed too, lol

All things being equal, Chinlamp should win this thing.

Can I just say that I was right about Kiss X Sis. I said it right in the opening team thread that people are totally overrating it. If the fanservice is that steep then people won't watch it. They'll watch the lighter ones like B Gata and Daimou

Of course, I was an idiot and didn't pick either of those two....

Just ecchi = Fail. Ecchi + comedy = Mild to good success. Ecchi/Harem + comedy + romance = Gold.

Guess I'll have to remember that ecchi + comedy + magic = Gold for the next FAL.

Why do people keep saying this? I know I can probably scrape top 3 again, but I'm damn sure I won't win. I'm damn sure that what really screwed me up, apart from not swapping KissxSis, was that I didn't pay attention to things and missed that Sentai had licensed Ichiban in week 1. That threw 1000 points away as well.

You should've remembered that from last season kuro, Nyan Koi! was ecchi/harem + comedy + magic. Though, the fact that Nyan Koi! did so well last time was why I didn't choose Mayoi, cos I didn't think anyone would watch it, note to self: just cos I've had enough of cat-harems, doesn't mean everyone else has.

On a side note, Heroman is unlikely to be licensed due to it being taken by CR, but then again... Ichiban.

Why do people keep saying this?
Because you have the perfect team and you're only 6k points behind? Ichiban is 1600 users ahead of the next anime, Hakuouki, which means you'll probably be first in about 4-5 weeks. Ichiban also has a low drop rate and a high score and a decent amount of favorites. Nothing even close to Angel Beats or Meido but still respectable for its genre.

As for Nyan Koi!, it wasn't really magic, it was a harem rom-com done by really talented people. B Gata was a whim, I picked it for some easy points at the beginning of the season, did not think it was going to do so well. It turns out the staff behind it is awesome so naturally it'll be popular. Ichiban was just a huge miscalculation on my part due to Shana prejudice. Magic is always Poplar ^^

The only real disappointment this season is Mayoi Neko, in almost every way. Heroman was a complete shot in the dark which is why I went with Mayoi Neko as a "safe" backup. Boy was I wrong :|

All in all, fun FAL is fun.

So, I was right in not choosing Mayoi, just wrong in the reasons for doing so, well, that makes me feel slightly better XD

Also, you're wrong about Nyan Koi! not being a + magic. It's got a cat talking curse, magical girls and a pissed off over graffitied statue. I honestly don't see where there isn't a reason to consider it having magic, but then again, maybe my definition is different to yours.

And yeah, Heroman almost got picked by me over Ichiban because I enjoy Stan Lee's other anime venture, 'Ultimo' and this looked like a mixture of anime and the Iron Giant before it started airing, but then I decided that Ichiban interested me more, so thankfully I chose right there.

It's good to know that people have more faith in my FALing abilities than I do. Thanks for the confidence boost kuro.

Don't forget that much of the success of some of the shows comes from very strong voice acting. Arakawa I tried betting against since I felt it was going to end up too out there...and I was proven wrong. Ichiban and B Gata, though, definitely strong VAs (Itou, Horie, Tamura can't be beat). Other little tidbits are out there, but I don't want to give away too much strategy on choices. Learned my lessons last FAL season.

You forgot another 500 - 1000 points during even number weeks for its episode discussion posts. So, yeah, you'll likely be first in about 3-4 weeks unless something awesome happens to Mayoi.

Yep, though I think you meant the sub points. I could have been up there with you if I aced and swapped in the first two weeks. If Mayoi is my only bad choice this season, I hope that means I can get a top twenty finish. Hell, if Youju-han can get licensed, maybe any of the other animes can later on this season.
