FormulaAnime whose finalized CourScore moved one way between the last two finalized weeks while its draft-market price moved the OTHER way into the current week. Strength = the smaller of the two relative moves (each as a percentage of its own previous value), so both sides must have moved. Strongest shown.

More trends appear after enough scoring weeks and revealed lineups are available.
Two kinds of week
Scoring and value figures come from FINALIZED weeks — settled results that can no longer change. Price figures come from the week currently open for drafting, which moves until it locks. Every figure on this page carries a chip naming which of the two it is, so a past result is never read as a live one.
Draft trends and privacy
Draft-based trends are built only from lineups that have already been revealed after lock, and only when enough of them were revealed to report on the field rather than on individuals. Before that, those trends say so instead of showing a number.
This Week's Meta summarizes verified CourPlay trends. It does not guarantee future scoring.

Current values are the newest stored AniList snapshot for each anime. A weekly change is that value minus the most recent settle snapshot before it, shown only when that snapshot exists and is at most 10 days older. Nothing here is part of CourScore, pricing or standings.

Featured Matchup · Summer 2026 · Week 7
Two eligible, closely-priced contenders — rotated weekly.
Finalized Week 4 → 5 · Draft market Week 6 → 7
Three different things move here: a PRICE is what an anime costs to draft next week, a COURSCORE is what it scored in the finalized week, and an AUDIENCE, FANDOM or RATING move is the raw AniList change underneath that score. They are ranked separately and never combined. Every figure describes a CLOSED week, measured between that week's own settle snapshots — not a running total for the week in progress.
No settle snapshot is stored for 2026-08-24, the date Week 5 finalized. Underlying AniList movement is withheld for this week; price and CourScore movement are unaffected, because they are read from the stored weekly rows rather than from snapshot dates.
