Overall - Demand VS Market Average.jpg

For the week of February 28 – March 6, Attack on Titan remained the most in-demand show in the United States, with an even 100.0 times the demand of the average series. This is a decrease of 5% from its demand last week.

My Hero Academia moved up a spot in the rankings this week. It was 74.1 times more in-demand than the average series. Demand for this series was up by 12%. This is in advance of the season 5 premiere scheduled for March 27th. With a new season of My Hero Academia premiering and Attack on Titan wrapping up its final season it may soon be the case that the top two most in-demand series in the US are Japanese animes.

The Flash returned this week, airing the first episode of its 7th season on March 2nd. Demand for the series was up by an impressive 26% from last week. For the previous 6 seasons, the season premiere has always been at the beginning of October. This season however is premiering in March due to Covid-19 delays to production.
