Emma obviously ruled 5A, followed by Hook due to his involvement with her. I want to say David probably got third place due getting a lot of screentime during the first half of that arc.

But I actually think there's a lot less Hook than people are assuming for 5B. Outside of his centric, Emma's centric, and the storyline he got with Arthur in 5x21, he didn't really get other focus. Even in the episode he was rescued from Hades, it was pretty minor and the episode was truly about Rumple and Milah. (I think he'd end up at like #4)

And then compare that to Zelena. I want to say she probably got the most screentime - it certainly seems like it - even though she showed up in 5x16. She got two centrics, plus a major role in 5x21. Also got b-stories in 5x17 and 5x18. Regina also got a lot more focus than she did in 5A, with two centrics, the episode where her soulmate died, plus the biggest storyline in the 2-pt season finale.

And sadly her man Robin fell off the map in season 5 - both arcs. At least he got to hang around in group scenes during 5A though.
