Japanese television viewership data covering the weekend of September 11 through September 13 provides a clear picture of household viewing habits across the Kanto region. Long-running cultural touchstones continue to command massive audiences, dominating weekend prime-time slots according to figures compiled by Video Research.
Securing the highest household rating of the period, Sazae-san achieved an impressive 8.1% rating during its Sunday evening broadcast on Fuji TV. Following closely behind, Detective Conan pulled in a solid 6.0% rating on NTV, proving the enduring appeal of Shinichi Kudo's ongoing mysteries. Other household favorites such as Chibi Maruko-chan and continuing series like That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime also maintained stable viewer retention throughout the broadcasting window.
Industry analysts regularly review these metrics to gauge broader trends in linear television engagement, noting that traditional Sunday evening family slots remain remarkably resilient despite shifts toward streaming platforms. These estimates reflect live household viewership figures exclusively and do not account for delayed recordings or digital catch-up services.
