| 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 (7.8088). 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 7.8088) | |||

| Titles with less than 4 votes are removed from the listing but are still counted in the ranking. This explains why there are gaps in the "#" column. The rating is an average of the scores given by voters, weighted to give less importance to users who tend to only rate very high or very low. | |||

| The most popular titles are determined with a simple summation of all votes. Titles with many votes will tend to be at the top, but this is modified a little by the ratings. 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. | |||

The rating displayed here is the same weighted average as the Top 10 Best Rated by weighted average, but is only displayed for reference and doesn't have anything to do with the order of the titles. | |||

Final Fantasy XIII is an experiment in some ways and a throwback in others, streamlining combat while indulging in the glitzy theatrics of its predecessors. It's also a test of just how much bland introduction a player can take.
Fourteen episodes (and one OVA) of elegiac beauty that soothe even as they mourn the franchise's passing.

Starting Point: 1979-1996 (book)
This collection of essays, interviews, and speeches spanning 17 years should be required reading for any dedicated Miyazaki fan or prospective animator, but one need only have a respect for animation (and those who make it) to appreciate the insight it offers.
Legged fish attack Okinawa in this admittedly silly horror story that saves itself from becoming a joke thanks to Junji Ito's freaky art and understanding of the horrors of mutable flesh.
