I posted versions of this graph back in 2017 and 2018… Seems I haven’t updated it since then… So I thought it might be fun to do so.
The graph shows the number of shows by season, by year, and the average by season (dashed line). You might have to click and see it full size to read some of it.
Some wandering thoughts…
- I expected the drop-off in 2019, given how that year went in my personal life… But I wouldn’t have expected it to be so consistent across quarters.
- I would have expected 2020 to go up given the additional amount of time on my hands during the plague year… But instead it continued down.
Of course, this graph only shows new (current season) anime. I have no real way of capturing the number of rewatches. And I know there’s been a ton of them over the last two years…
If you keep track, what do your numbers look like? How did your viewing habits change in 2020?
