Anime News Network's reader poll ranked Akane-banashi at number one for the weekly episode ranking, with Witch Hat Atelier and Nippon Sangoku: The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun rounding out the top three. In the cumulative ranking, Witch Hat Atelier held the top spot, followed by Dorohedoro and Nippon Sangoku. Anime Corner's separate poll, which collected over 6,000 votes, showed a different leader: Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Season 4 took first place for the seventh consecutive week with 12.63% of the vote. Wistoria: Wand and Sword Season 2 climbed to second place at 5.88%, narrowly beating Witch Hat Atelier at 5.85%. Anime Corner noted that Marriagetoxin achieved its highest placement of the season at sixth place, and Akane-banashi entered its top ten for the first time this spring.","whyItMatters":"The divergence between the two polls-ANN's preference for Akane-banashi and Witch Hat Atelier versus Anime Corner's continued Re:Zero dominance-highlights how different voting populations and methodologies produce distinct pictures of the same season.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eAnime News Network\u0026#39;s weekly ranking is based on user ratings of individual episodes from the current season, using the Ranked Pairs method, and only includes titles legally streaming in North America with enough votes to qualify. The site also publishes a cumulative ranking that accounts for all episodes aired to date, where Witch Hat Atelier has held the number one position. Anime Corner\u0026#39;s poll is a straightforward vote share system, drawing from over 6,000 global participants each week. The gap between the two polls\u0026#39; top results is stark: Akane-banashi, which ANN readers placed first for the week, ranked ninth in Anime Corner\u0026#39;s poll with 4.48% of the vote. Conversely, Re:Zero, which won Anime Corner\u0026#39;s poll handily, did not appear in ANN\u0026#39;s top ten weekly list. Both polls agree on the competitive nature of the season\u0026#39;s middle ranks, with Anime Corner noting that less than a percentage point separated second from sixth place.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAkane-banashi\u003c/strong\u003e: ANN weekly rank #1\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWitch Hat
