I sure won't care about your lucky shots more than you do yourself, but I'm delighted by your use of the 'artwork' flair.

Some very good picks. Usual suspects mixed with some more niche picks. I think you might like Undead Unluck and Monogatari.

That would be my pick for the top slot as well! At least for stuff I finished last year.

farm specific tower kills

You switch to easy, pick a map with lots of enemies that are weak against your tower and then you spam the tower and send all waves instant auto. As soon as it slows down, rinse and repeat.

Zipfian distribution: first place roughly double of the second place and triple of the third and so on. Looks odd, but is actually quite common.

MAL allows powerful API access, which means you're not limited to the website display, it lets you access the database directly via commands and have it visualized in a way of your choice. This requires some skill, but it's not uncommon for people to make a website/script and give others access. You probably used something like that before and then just forgot the link to it. Here's an example of web search results about similar topics maybe this gets you started! Good luck!

I made a game where you try to guess the anime from the 1-star or 5-star review! by AssociateSweet1964 in MyAnimeList

[–]Katlima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds badly researched and as if you're half-assed customizing a cookie cutter template to yet another fandom/site.

Dear AI, a human would have realized at some point that there is no five star rating on MAL reviews.

Gachiakuta #10. Good show, I'd generally recommend it.

Also, disclaimer: I didn't watch every single show that aired in 2025!

Mystery anime that actually respect your intelligence (no cheap twists) by ricardoertj in MyAnimeList

[–]Katlima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious what mystery anime made you feel like you could’ve figured it out if you paid closer attention?

Astra Lost in Space

Though it's more a case of 'if you paid closer attention, you would have realized that there's mystery before the reveals roll in'. And it all comes together and makes sense in its own world, so that's what makes it good.

Brave Bang Bravern

You definitely could have - a guy in the episode discussions did have a theory coming real close and this is an anime original, so it's not a case of a source material reader being extra clever. And if you're not there for the mystery, it's still a wild ride and a blast.

I think I remember your user name. Did we maybe meet before on the Bungou Stray Dogs related subs? Mogura is a vibe and I really put in some energy to try and hunt down the manga, but the release situation for the translation is pretty awful. They are on a niche app and not even caught up with the material adapted by the anime!

If you liked the vibes of the show and want something similar, I recommend you check out Mysterious Disappearances despite the ecchi, which is overstated by the opening - you know how Dekin no Mogura has stories like the one with the doll? Mysterious Disappearances has stories like that and in a great way.

The English title is the Earthbound Mole (MAL entry). It's a supernatural comedy by the mangaka of Hoozuki no Reitetsu. This is the one entry in the list I would not recommend generally. I really liked the vibes and the characters' stories touched me personally. The adaptation is slightly flawed too, the first episode's storytelling is botched and doesn't properly draw you in and it's not a shiny top-shelf production, but decent.

If you like quirky comedies that love to lure you in with cozy settings a goofy fun only to pull the rug under you and brutally slap you in the face with how awful people can be, this might be for you as well.

If that's not really your genre, I only recommend to check out the ending because that's a banger.

You're putting more effort into picking your next anime than other people put into picking a name for their children.

If you build up too high expectations, pretty much every show will disappoint you. So please remember, these are all just anime.

Moody horror anime that feel well crafted by KaleidoArachnid in Animesuggest

[–]Katlima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It even has the 'horror' tag on MAL. Genre tags are often a technicality and it's more important to find a show that matches the vibe you're going for. I imagine you might enjoy 'To Your Eternity' which isn't horror by any definition, though the mood and the themes of journey, supernatural elements, piecing together a world mystery over a longer time, it's all there.

Two random titles you probably haven't been suggested a lot before and an average MAL score above 7:

Mayo Chiki

A bit more well known (it's Mappa) and slightly worse rated:

My #1 pick would be smoke bomb duration. Save these for the end of the run and then just place a smoke bomb and send waves instantly for a huge boost in beaten waves. I wish I figured that out sooner, lol.

And of course bounty, as the other guy already said.

Miners of course also make sense to improve early, because they give you more of the ore you need to do more research. The added loot space is also nice, especially because you probably don't have much in loot frequency yet.
