are the activity stats borked? i ask because looking at the "Series Stats" page, the current results seem unintuitive.

for example, if i select the "Six Month" option, "I Need a Bride" is currently ranked #12.

this series has:
- no releases listed
- a few categories with n...

Thermae Romae is a fun manga with a neat concept and if you read the author's notes at the end of each chapter (generally 2-4 pages) you learn quite a lot about both Roman and Japanese culture (often as it relates to bathing). i'd say it qualifies as some kind of a "broa...

I've noticed that there's a lack of meta poll questions (just one about when people vote):

- No

Self-confessed "yes"...
