'Apoyan' (TBS)

The biggest improvements in terms of season-average were recorded by ‘Itsuka Hi no Ataru Basho de‘ (NHK) and ‘Shotenin Michiru no Minoue Banashi‘ (NHK) again, although they both lost a tiny share compared to the previous week. ‘Share House no Koibito‘ (NTV), ‘Otome-san‘ (TV Asahi), and ‘Kasouken no Onna Season 12‘ (TV Asahi) also polished their overall ratings a little.

‘Aibou season11‘ (TV Asahi) didn’t air this week and therefore avoided going against the strong live broadcast of the World Baseball Classic match between Japan and Cuba. The highest episode-ratings were achieved by ‘Kasouken no Onna Season 12′ (TV Asahi) with 12.7%, ‘Otome-san’ (TV Asahi) with 11.4%, and ‘Last Hope‘ (Fuji TV) with 11.4% as well. The latter also experienced the biggest increase compared to the previous week with a plus of 2.2%.

‘Hancho 6‘ (TBS), ‘Otasukeya Jinpachi‘ (NTV), ‘Apoyan‘ (TBS), and ‘Saikou no Rikon‘ (Fuji TV) lost more than 1.0% or even more than 2.0% compared to the previous week or episode.

(NTV is the only network that still discloses all of their ratings on a daily base. If anything, the other networks only reveal the ratings for their dramas regularly.)

NHK, TBS and TV Tokyo usually don’t disclose the ratings for their shows on a regular basis, therefore they won’t be included in the list below. Certain dramas or drama specials that aired on those channels and might lack ratings are still included with a ??.?% rating. This doesn’t mean that the ratings were too low to recorded.

An orange color means almost no change, while a red color means the ratings dropped, and a green color means the ratings improved.
