Latest episode of Re:Zero and entire Re:Zero getting review bombed and targeted by other anime fandoms.

Hello IMDb Staff,

 I am asking IMDb Staff to review the voting activity of all Re:Zero episodes, particularly the sudden increases in 1/10 ratings.

Since that date, numerous episodes from different seasons have received sudden and disproportionate increases in 1/10 votes. Several episodes that had maintained relatively stable ratings for long periods experienced noticeable drops within short periods of time.

The suspicious pattern includes:

  • Sudden increases in 1/10 votes across numerous Re episodes
  • Episodes from multiple seasons being affected at similar or different times
  • Repeated rating drops occurring on multiple dates since August 22, 2026
  • Previously stable episodes suddenly receiving unusually high numbers of minimum-score votes
  • Highly rated episodes throughout the series being affected, rather than only one particular episode
  • Similar patterns of 1/10 voting appearing across multiple episodes
  • Social-media discussions encouraging, organizing, or celebrating intentional low-rating campaigns against Re:Zero

I have also seen discussions involving individual accounts identifying themselves as fans of other anime series, including Bleach and Mushoku Tensei, where intentional low ratings against Re were discussed or encouraged. I am not claiming that either fandom as a whole is responsible. I am referring only to specific accounts and communities where this behavior has been discussed.

Because the issue appears to affect many episodes throughout the series, I respectfully ask IMDb Staff to investigate the 1/10 voting history and voting patterns of all Re:Zero episodes from August 22, 2026 onward.

In particular, I would appreciate it if IMDb could determine whether these 1/10 votes show signs of coordinated, duplicate, automated, newly created-account, or otherwise abnormal voting behavior.

I can provide supporting evidence, including:

  • Before-and-after rating screenshots
  • Rating-distribution screenshots showing increases in 1/10 votes
  • Dates and approximate times of significant rating changes
  • Examples involving episodes from multiple seasons
  • Screenshots or links showing discussions of intentional review bombing

I understand that IMDb uses weighted ratings and internal systems designed to detect unusual voting activity. I am not requesting that IMDb manually restore any episode to a particular score.

I am specifically requesting an investigation into the repeated and ongoing series-wide pattern of suspicious 1/10 voting across Re:Zero episodes.

Thank you for reviewing this matter.
