Femslash week in review: 2024-11-05 - 2024-11-11

High-level stats for week of 2024-11-05 - 2024-11-11

• Total works categorized F/F on AO3: 8491 (-1024 from last week)


• Works I classified F/F: 4788 (-629 from last week) (2184 new, 2604 continued)


• 0.59% of all 817453 AO3 works I've classified F/F were updated this week

A few callouts this week:

• MCU has fallen off last week's peak, but is still crushing the charts, with over twice as many new/updated F/F works as the next fandom.
  
• Meanwhile, League of Legends is up at rank 2. That's a jump of 81 works week-over-week. Given that Arcane season 2 dropped only two days before the end of the week represented in this listing, I expect next week will be even stronger.
  
• Those surges take Harry Potter out of the top two for the first time in two years, which seems fine.
  
• Web series Alien Stage continues to slowly climb the chart, reaching another best-ever rank of 13.
  
• Long-running British soap opera Coronation Street joins the chart at rank 18, its first appearance since (wait for it) 2015. Maybe there's a canon reason for this jump, or maybe someone is running a successful exchange or prompt. If you know, tell me, and I'll mention it next week!
  
• Once Upon a Time also returns, and those two fandoms replace Batman and The 100.
  
• Finally, the new Problematic Femslash dreamwidth community is running a Sapphic Dead Dove December prompt event. I don't know the community, but I assume it is what it says on the tin, so go there if you go there and don't if you don't.
