What to cover next
Every show in the Codex, scored as a content opportunity — weighted by how much it splits the Codex from the crowd, how big its audience is, and how current it is — each with a ready-made angle. Plus a live read on what's airing and trending right now.
A note on “demand”: it's a popularity/buzz proxy (MAL members, AniList popularity, trend interest), not keyword search volume — we don't have search-volume data, so we don't fake it.
