I think its a race between  The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses and zom 100 for highest scoring this season. Early to say, but it could be very close.

done goofed in the final week last season -- and i had been in top 100 up until that point.

i'm not feeling confident about my choices this season; kinda picked everything in a rush. i saw some chatter about not picking rent a girlfriend & bsd, but i picked bsd in the end for my bench. hopefully i don't end up kicking myself for that choice

My team doesn't look bad. But I don't have high hopes for this season. Masamune-kun, Zom 100, Suki na Ko, Watashi no. I also took Jidou Hanbaiki on the bench, because I was hoping that a lot of people would be interested in this anime just for meme xD

There's just a lot to consider, my dude.

Saw you had Skip to Loafer in your team, which was a solid pick, but anyone with a similar team but with Heavenly Delusion would have over 300,000 points on you by the end of the season. Konosuba also fell off in points in the last few weeks to several shows, so having that in your team hurt your position as well.

Lastly, don't know how you used your aces or wild card this season, but the points you gain or lose from those make a huge difference. Getting an ace wrong by a couple hundred points at near the start of FAL made the difference between me being 138th and 378th.

At least you weren't one of the people who didn't pick Oshi no Ko. You'd might as well being fighting for the lowest score at that point XD

oh i see. FAL is actually a lot more tougher than i thought plus there's a little luck factor involved too with the teams we pick. let's see how this season goes.

Sequels are traps for sure on the limited selection. Even though we have to pick one, being that rent is a s3 will limits its viewer growth a lot even if it is pretty popular. Doing some research I think only Komi Can't Communicate s2 is a sequel that has been the top scoring for some reason so it was the exception. The majority of top scoring shows each season are new shows.

 Well I guess I'll just hope my back up swap is valuable. I did at least out bungo as reserve so won't waste two swaps.

The closest season that fal shall open again is obviously fall rather than winter. You can come back and register by then, or just stick close to the community by talking lots here or join malcord fal channel for a better experience and not forgetting the timeline again. Goodluck.

I ranked 300th overall last season. I paid for picking the Ranking of Kings sequel last season, but avoiding sequels this season was impossible. I took Bungou, Rent-A-GF, and McDonald's Demon because I am sure they are gonna be highly scored by the diehards to make up for less viewers. People just seemed so cold on new Kenshin, Helck, Undead Girl, and Dark Gathering which I thought were gonna be sure things. Looking forward to how things shake out. Zom 100 is def #1 this season though imo.

Good luck everyone!

Eyyyy 300's gang. I mad regret not taking Undead Girl over Seven Spellblades this season. Think that show has the potential to be the dark horse of this season. That said, sequel anime was definitely the best play just for lack of original standouts outside of the romance genre, which are pretty niche in their viewership to begin with. Agree that Zom is the standout this season, with the addition of Bungou S5 popping off after it starts airing this week. Currently tied in 23rd with 156 other players and hoping not to fall off XD

Best of luck to you, my dude 👍

Didn't expect zom to cap out so fast. Guess it really wasn't possible to ace it last week and weaken your starting roster so much though, since it finished 5th. Pretty impressive, since it only got like 12 hours before score calcs.  Obviously kind of sucks for Episode Discussions points, but that is just a weakness of a show airing on sundays.

No, you cannot. Separate, but related so do not ace zom 100 now as it is over or have already. You will lose 5000.

My first FAL was spring 2022 and i ended up picking Komi as an absolute noob and got extremely lucky. You are correct about sequels (most of the time not all) being a trap for noobies. This season was so hard to pick for though and i ended up picking masamune over spellblades at the last minute.
