-Which is the reason why shows like Steins;gate and Samurai X are in higher rankings because critically they are rated higher.
However, KLK and KNK dominate LB:R and Magi in popularity/ratings, and will continue to do so until winter or spring series arive.(sorry i guess this isn't obvious, TV RATINGS, though it should be).
(though to be fair, monogatari wins as well, especially on those blu-ray sales).
Point being: yeah, you were wrong. KLK and KNK definitely surpass all other series right now in popularity.

:/ You do know KLK doesn't have anything to sell yet right? 4 episodes in and all.
