| This rating only includes titles that have at least 4 votes. The bayesian estimate is a statistical technique used to reduce the noise due to low sample counts. In effect, the less a title has votes, the more it is pulled towards the mean (7.8523). In other words, these are the titles that many people agree are great. bayesian rating = (v ÷ (v+m)) × R + (m ÷ (v+m)) × C where: R = average for the manga v = number of votes for the manga m = minimum votes required to be listed (currently 4) C = the mean vote across the whole report (currently 7.8523) | |||

In other words, the popularity is the straight average score of a title (the value in the rating column) multiplied by the number of votes. | |||

Those who plodded through the cutesy, frilly content of earlier volumes while hoping that something would happen will be partly rewarded here. Greatly increased fan service, decided relationship advancement, and a semblance of a developing plot all speak in this volume's favor.
