I notice an interesting trend in Kagi's and ATARU's figures where one goes up, the other goes down. It still remains to be seen who will the final winner because the margin separating these two dramas is fairly thin. Mikeneko bounces back to get closer to 3rd spot but it all depends on how 37-sai fares for the rest of the season. Last week's 10.2 for 37-sai can be considered as a freak result like what happened to Mikeneko's Ep 7. If there aren't any surprises in store and both dramas keep their over-12% ratings, it will be worth seeing who can grab that No.3 title. Legal High looks like another potential contender for No.3 or No.4 especially since it has been getting over 14% for the past two weeks.
 
Toshi Densetsu no Onna got its highest rating to date for its finale which makes it shoot to top position among the below-10% dramas. If Answer continues to stay below 10% for the rest of its run, Toshi might hold on to No.7. W no Higeki and Kaeru no Oujosama has a small margin separating them so any jump or dip in ratings may result in a swap in positions. As for the rest of the dramas, it doesn't look like any significant change is going to happen.
