Still surprises me that eminence beats frieren. It's a dumb fun show but not exactly "good show" in terms of story or character development.

Yeah I read and liked the manga and still wonder what people see in it sometimes

The top items in a poll like this are going to be the most popular shows, not the best shows necessarily. Personally, I'd rate Apothecary Diaries much higher than Jujutsu Kaisen (pretty fight scenes but no substance) or Eminence in Shadow (fun, but again lacking in substance) in terms of quality. (I can't speak to Frieren because I dropped it after the second ep—something about it just wasn't working for me.)

The show that I've been watching that I'm surprised to see on that list at all is Ragna Crimson, the second-grimmest downer of the season after Hametsu no Oukoku.
