[From GWS.com] JUJUTSU KAISEN is officially the world’s most in-demand animated TV show, taking the title from Attack on Titan which held it since 2020.
According to data-science firm Parrot Analytics, JUJUTSU KAISEN has a global demand rating 71.2 times greater than that of the average TV show.
Parrot Analytics calculates ‘demand’ based on how much attention, engagement, desire, and viewership is expressed by consumers for content.
Their system captures billions of new data points each day, including video consumption (streaming and downloads), social media engagement (hashtags, likes, shares), and research actions (reading about a show on IMDb, for example).
Actions which require more effort on the consumer’s part, such as watching or downloading a show, are weighed more heavily when calculating demand.
Based on Gege Akutami's manga series of the same name, JUJUTSU KAISEN follows the story of high school student Yuji Itadori, who joins a group of Jujutsu Sorcerers to defeat a Curse named Sukuna, of whom Yuji becomes the host.
The anime fought off close competitors One Piece and Attack on Titan to claim the top spot in 2023’s rankings.
One Piece enjoyed a boost in interest due to the release of Netflix’s live-action adaptation, which brought in new fans to the series as well as inspired older fans to rewatch earlier episodes.
Attack on Titan, which concluded its final season in November, remained immensely popular but narrowly lost out this time.
Side note: Congratulations to Akutami sensei and MAPPA animators who made this possible 👏🏼

Electric Light Orchestra - A New World Record [UK Release] (11 September 1976)

This is kinda relating to my last post but I think some of you are mistaking Shen for an albino peacock.. cause he’s not
I mean, I don’t really blame you if you mistook him as one cause honestly I’m just a weirdo who reads wikis.
(skip everything and just read the bottom if you don’t wanna read my explanation)
.
.
Shen is a peacock with leucism, not albinism.
(Leucism definition on the left, albinism on the right)
Here’s him compared to an actual albino peacock. As you can see, the albino has a pink and white pigmentation due to a lack of melanin, whereas Shen despite being mostly white is still full of color.
(And no, it’s not because it’s a silly cartoon. The creators of KFP had originally intended to make him albino to make him look “sickly” which would explain why he was neglected by his parents. They made the decision to scrap that in favor of having him be a peacock with leucism so there was no excuse or tragic backstory to justify his entitlement and actions)
.
.
And if you REALLY don’t believe my explanation, here’s the KFP wiki page backing me up!
#also… my post was a joke if you couldn’t tell??#it’s cause when looks like a carbon copy of his father just white instead of blue#also if we put it into context#would the characters even know what an albino was??#if we use real world events as a point of reference gunpowder.. which was relatice new in the kfp story.. was created in 1044#albinism was not recorded or known about as much until 1908#so yeah maybe shen’s father is justified in being slightly iffy about whether Shen was his son or not 😂#AS I SAID THOUGH- I was joking#I didn’t think anyone would take me seriously#the amount of people trying to dm me on Instagram and ‘correct’ me was a bit obnoxious so I didn’t want it to get to that point on here#lord Shen#peacock#Kung fu panda#Kung fu panda 2

Why I hate Golf
This is the Takapuna Golf Course in Auckland, New Zealand.
It is in the middle of Auckland's north shore suburbs.
According to their website, they are one of the most popular golf courses in Aotearoa and have an annual visitor count of 60,000 people. They don't clarify if that is individual unique visitors or recounts, but lets be generous and say its unique visitors. 60,000, not bad.
This is Eden Park Stadium (the little square on the right) and oh look there's another golf course on the left there, ignore that one for now.
(the above two images are at the same scale)
Eden park has a capacity of 50,000 people. Ed Sheeran was here earlier this year and sold out the two nights he performed. That's 100,000 people in a weekend all in that little red square. 60,000 in a year no longer seems so great.
60,000 people per year is also only 160 people per day. 160 visitors to a golf course that is 470,000 square meters in area. Now the average property size in Auckland is 500 square meters. So the golf course takes up the area of 940 houses.
940 homes worth of land for 160 people.
And that is Auckland housing sizes. Auckland is horribly designed and very spread out. Let's instead look at Barcelona, considered one of the most well designed cities in the world.
This is Takapuna golf course side by side with Barcelona
(The scale is as close to being equal as I could get them, I don't have ArcGIS data for Barcelona so had to use google maps)
Each red square overlaid on Takapuna Golf Course is exactly 133m in height/width, the same size as each city block in Barcelona, road width included.
There are 23 Barcelona blocks worth of space in Takapuna Golf Course with room to spare. About 640 people live in each Barcelona block, that's 15000 people.
15000 peoples worth of homes and living spaces, sacrificed so 160 people can play golf in a day.
Now this is just one golf course in a big city, what's 15,000 people to a city of 1.6 million, who cares right?
Here is a wider shot of Auckland City.
Those red dots? They're golf courses.
There are 16 golf courses inside the metropolitan area of Auckland City (4 not pictured as Auckland is too spread out to get one clean screenshot). Keep in mind these are not rural golf courses out in the country, these are right beside housing developments and shopping malls. And for the record I could not find a single golf course in the Barcelona metropolitan area, you had to go out into the country before finding one.
So lets multiply that 15,000 people by 16 golf courses?
240,000 people.
With Auckland City's golf courses you could house 240,000 people comfortably with some good urban planning.
That is why I hate golf.
#For the record I'm not 100% against golf I just think if you have the time to play the most boring sport in the world#Then you also have time to drive 30 minutes out into the country side to play it#golf courses water usage is a whole other story but they aren't uniquely wasteful so thats why I havent mentioned that#golf courses in dry areas with water shortages are even worse than a waste of space and it doesnt matter if theyre urban or rural#but for golf courses in a place like auckland theyre water usage is generally fine and its the waste of land use that bothers me so#Auckland#New Zealand#Aotearoa#Golf#Barcelona#Why i hate golf#golf hate
