After weighting 800 positive and 800 negative reviews by trust, the adjusted rating is 80.6% (95% range 80.2–81.0%), essentially the same as the official figure. Verdict: "Genuinely great" (the adjusted rating is 70% or higher and the positive reviews carry high average trust).
Japanese-language reviews alone show 64.0% (4,878 reviews, 95% range 62.6–65.3%), 18.0 points below the overall rating. Players writing in Japanese are noticeably less positive. In the last 180 days, Japanese-language reviews show 52.2%.

The monthly history (41 months) has no month where volume and negative share jumped together. The rating does not appear to be driven by a single episode.
The last 180 days show 70.8%, 11.2 points below the all-time figure. Sentiment over the past six months is weaker.
The adjusted rating estimates trust from how reviews are written; it does not judge any individual review as fake. Data as of 2026-10-12.
