Year 4 of “Ever After High Says What?” in review
Today marks the last day of the third year this blog’s been active! Let’s review this blog’s stats before we go:
The total number of words spoken in Year 4 was 700. The most common word spoken was “you”, which appeared 34 times.
The character with the most lines (lines being all words, including beats between words, sound effects, & emoticons) was Raven Queen, who had a total of 84 lines. The character with the fewest lines (excluding non-speaking appearances) was a five-way tie between Nina Thumbell and four nameless background characters, who only had 2.
The character with the most appearances in Year 4 (based on how many comics they were tagged in) was Raven Queen, who appeared in 7 comics out of 24 total. All of them were speaking appearances.
The comic with the most lines was Comic 79 with 69 lines. Comic 88 and Comic 95 were tied for the comics with the fewest lines with 16 lines. Comic 88 was also the only comic with only one character.
The top 5 comics of Year 4 by notes ATOW were Comic 88 with 131 notes, Comic 81 with 73 notes, Comic 85 with 57 notes, Comic 77 with 52 notes, and Comic 80 with 44 notes.
The bottom 5 comics of Year 4 by notes ATOW were Comic 86 with 7 notes, a three-way tie between Comic 74, Comic 76, and Comic 95 with 13 notes each, Comic 73 with 16 notes, Comic 75 with 17 notes, and a tie between Comic 83 and Comic 87 with 19 notes each.
The comic with the greatest absolute increase in notes since last year was Comic 56 with 13 new notes since last year's tally. The comic with the greatest per capita increase in notes since last year was Comic 72, whose note count increased by 73.33% from the previous tally to 26 notes ATOW. This is currently the highest per capita increase in notes in the blog's history.
Comic 11 was the first comic to show a decrease in notes, losing two notes from last year's tally. How this happened is unknown. It still remains the most-liked comic with 1098 notes, and it remains the only comic with a four-digit number of notes.
The fandoms most often referenced were unknown sources with 5 comics.
Comic length has steadily declined overall, as has overall traffic based on number of notes given. I don't know if this reflects the overall state of the fandom, but I have noticed a slight decline in new content in 2025 compared to 2024.
Tomorrow we start Year 5, which will feature the blog's 100th comic in April!
