(A Certain Magical Index)

Oh my goodness do I hate Last Order. Really hope she gets less obnoxious after her character introduction is done or something because I was just starting to get into this series again.

*Actually remembers to listen to a song when he gets home from work*

Oh I really like that one, though maybe that shouldn't be much of a surprise at this point in the list. The gongs are nice. Reminds me a bit of Beat the Angel. (Yes, solely because that is also a song that utilizes gongs...>.>)

Did most liberals freak out over Gorsuch? I don't think that they did, and even if I'm wrong about that I'm confident that it wasn't near the degree that they did over Kavanaugh.

Ironically I have read some of Umineko also, and while Higurashi is either my #1 or #2 favorite, Umineko is actually one of my least favorite VN's.

I am in the middle of attempting to reread Umineko from a slightly different perspective, but I haven't really gotten far enough to re-form an opinion yet.

Anyways arc ranking of Higurashi because why not: 1 > 2 > 3 > 4. I have read a bit of chapter 5 and it was shaping up to be one of the strongest though, especially if my suspicions about chapter 2 are correct (I'm somewhat confident they are).

Any thoughts on whether the registered user bonus is already included?

The percentages appear different in the hub page for the day compared to the individual results if you click "view detailed results".

Until evidence suggests otherwise I'm going to assume the counts/percentages in the individual results pages are in terms of raw numbers, and the percentages on the hub page are after taking into account the registered user bonus.

Edit: Ok nevermind I think they may just be updating slower on the hub page.

Death Parade is kind of a weird series for me.

I found the overall plot to be extremely boring, but I think generally the episodes as standalones vary between "pretty good" and "top tier anime". It's also sort of weird because the series is apparently about death games, but I actually think the best episodes are the ones that don't have the sort of dark psychological drama you would expect from that label. (The bowling, Old Maid, and ice skating episodes are all absolutely fantastic)
