Well I see that many VN in VNDB have less than 300 votes, so I come to EGS and make this chart. My purpose is to compare Japan interest and western taste, for documentary, for someone else who needs this and for fun. The problem is EGS doesnt use bayeasian rating, and some visual novel split into many different versions, so I must use bayesian rating edit and only get VN that has at least 500 votes
anyway heres the rank

I stop at Dracu riot because I almost dont know any thing below it. it got 75 score
Honestly there is not that much difference between vndb's top vn and egs 's, nor for that matter that much difference between a Chinese VN ranking site called bangumi.com
I guess VN is just a more niche market than anime/manga, and where experts gather, interests tend to converge, cultural differences aside.
