This started when I compared pairings I was interested in: NicoMaki was 10 pages of images, NozoEri was 9, MariAli was 6 and BuCap was only a single page.

I checked some popular anime and didn't find anything with even MariAli's 6 pages of images, and I was also curious about the most doujin.

Is there a way to tell such statistics?

Any guesses?

There doesn't seem to be an easy way to check, but I could probably write a Python script that collects these statistics. Maybe later this week if I feel like it.

I don't have data for the other series on Dynasty, but for Touhou, MariAli (closely tied with ReiMari) is the most popular pairing:
Data was collected in September 2023.

Okay, it didn't end up being as hard as I thought it might be. Here you go!

Here's the Google Collab notebook I wrote my code in, though fair warning it's not organized at all lol.

A few things that jump out at me: the images chart seems to be overall newer than the chapters chart, which I guess isn't surprising. I didn't expect SuleMio to be #1 on images but I am happy at that result; same with Nanoha/Fate topping the chapters chart (though it should be noted I tracked individual chapters with that, including oneshots).

Amazing! Thank you thank you! I don't actually know anything about Gundam. Not that shocked that MadoHomo is #1. I always say it's a cousin to the really great Qualia the Purple,.Also Love Live! is two main couples, the RinPana side couple and a bunch of pairings that don;t make the cut (though Umi Eli has some mileage).

I definitely recommend watching Witch From Mercury; you don't need to know anything about Gundam to enjoy it, and it's a great show. I was also pretty surprised by the popularity of Umi/Eli, but I admit I don't know much about the Love Live fandom (I just watched the anime lol).

Edit: And you're welcome! Honestly it was pretty fun to do. I made a Reddit post about my results too, in case you're interested.

These are good stats. Interesting! For Gundam to overtake the rest in less than 2 years...

I'm surprised Christa x Ymir made the top chapters. I'm happy KonaKaga did.

I'm embarrassed to say one of my first responses was TAKE THAT, REIMU!!!!
