Pitch graph for odaka words seems always wrong?
Shouldn't all the mora be "high" after the first?

This is how the word is formatted: 一日[ついたち;o]

Shouldn't the pitch graph for odaka look like this instead?

No, that's correct, only the drop matters. So only that's indicated.
Both graphs in both images you shared are essentially the same.

I see your point but shouldn't the rise be the same as heiban then?
extended-salmonOP•14mo ago
ie. rise on the second mora
it just seems weird to me that in one case you'd mark the rise (h) and in the other case you'd just mark the drop (o)

Maybe. Admittedly, I'm used to how it's indicated. So I always assumed it's intentional, as it means the same thing. For one it makes it more visually distinct. Can poke the team on this for their thoughts. @Migaku Anki Add-On Support

Thank you. I'm cool with it either way, I'd just like to understand the thinking in case I'm missing something.
