This season's spring anime had a very large number of sequels to major and popular works, and the trend can be seen in this rating ranking. Of the top 10 works, a total of 7 are sequels, indicating that the popularity of these works remains strong. Among sequels, "Knights of Sidonia: Battle of the Ninth Planet," "Nisekoi:" and "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders, Egyptian Arc," which currently ranks second, have particularly high ratings, and are highly rated by many fans for their stable drawings, story development, and emotional involvement of mecha and characters. However, sequels to these popular works are not always successful.


However, the latest work by Kyoto Animation, "Hibiki Kake: Euphonium," is currently in first place, beating out sequels to popular works such as these! Euphonium," Kyoto Animation's latest work. Euphonium," an anime adaptation of a novel, has struck a chord with many fans with its detailed depiction and human drama woven by high school students, as is typical of KyoAni. It is a straightforward coming-of-age anime, and it is no wonder that it received a near perfect score.

Also, "Arslan Senki: The Heroic Legend of Arslan," which will enter its second season in July, has already received high praise from many fans at the end of its first season. This is a major work by a unique tag team of a fantasy science fiction work by Yoshiki Tanaka and a comic adaptation by Hiroshi Arakawa, known for "Fullmetal Alchemist" and "Silver Spoon," and it can be said to be off to a stable start.
