You might enjoy Aoi Bungako Series from your PTW. Gosick is another one I saw (24 eps), it's full of mystery solving.

 » Watch an anime recommended to you by another Anime Watching Challenge participant

Need this one please.
I'd like for it to be a one-shot if possible. Anything on my On-Hold or PTW is fair game.
Stipulations:
No prequel/sequel/summary series to something I've seen (ex. the Chuunibyou movie). Alternative versions are okay (ex. Blue Gender: The Warrior did not require the watcher to have seen Blue Gender).

You have Angel Densetsu in your on-hold. I'd definitively recommend watching it as well as reading the manga if you end up liking the OVA.

Otherwise, if you're in the mood for a bad movie: Crystal Triangle.

Thanks Kallah, I'll try both since I still need to fill my character archetype requirement. Hopefully the other will hit it, been having misses lately.

Well, it looks like it aired in 2 seasons just like UBW or Aldnoah.Zero. So should I count it as one anime of 24 episodes or 2 anime of 12 (Anime of one or two seasons)?

Hello everyone, I have some questions about the challenge :)

1) What exactly is a one-/two-/three-cours (or more) in length ?

2) "Watch an anime adapted from a manga with a score of 8.0 or higher" -> is it the manga or the anime that should be above 8.0 ?

3) Should the live action be japanese ?

4) How does the challenge about TVtropes works ?

5) "Watch an anime that started the year you joined MAL or later" -> I joined MAL in 2012... so does it mean it's anything between 2012 and 2015 ?

6) What is the ½ + 7 rule ? I checked online but don't understand how this is applicable in that context so maybe I don't understand well ?



Also, can I get a movie or ONA suggestion, please ?

When watching genres we dislike, can we count in there mahou shoujo or trap? Because apart from that, only other I dislike is shounen ai/yaoi and I certainly do not plan to watch that.

1. They are approximately 13/26/39 episodes long (one cours can be 10-13 episodes, for example).
2. The manga should be above 8.
3. It doesn't have to be Japanese. It can be Korean or Taiwanese, for example. Or even American (though unlikely).
4. Keep clicking the "random" button on TVtropes until you find a trope you like and look at the titles under Anime to pick one which has that trope.
5. Yes.
6. Assuming you're 20 years old, half your age plus seven is 17 years. So the anime must be at least 17 years old, or rather, have aired in 1998 or earlier.

I think you've seen almost everything I have so I'll let someone else give you a rec :)

Pretty sure it's the manga that needs a 8.0, but you could just watch something where both are above 8.0.

Ah whoops, sometimes the obvious answers lay in plain sight huh? I only asked because I'm going to watch Donten ni Warau, its manga is above 8.0 but anime counterpart is below.

Also a bit random but if anyone is looking for something about a non-human main character, Junkers Come Here is about a talking dog. It's a slice of life movie from the mid 1990s and has a nice message on family as well as organic characters. One of Sato Junichi's earlier works as well (for Aria/Tamayura fans).

You can basically search on MAL for Japanese verb endings like -suru, -teiru or -masu. Of course, that also finds things with those inside other words, so it isn't 100% accurate.

You're watching two shows with verbs - Danmachi and Hibike! Euphonium.

You have watched Natsume Yuujinchou and gave it 7. I'd say finish the other 3 sequels of it. The last one was the best or so I've heard.

I need some help...

» Watch an anime recommended to you by another Anime Watching Challenge participant


1) Can someone recommend me something good (finished) with less than 15 episodes?

» Watch an anime with children in it


2) Is it enough that they have a supporting role? Up to what age can you consider them children? 12/14/16/18?

» Watch an anime that has a verb in its title


3) Does the verb thing apply to the Japanese or the English title? I was planing to watch Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru which according to it's Wikipedia page would have a verb in it's Japanese title but does not in the English. Is this all right?

» Watch a staff member's favorite anime


4) Does this mean the favorite, ranked first in the favorite list, or does it include all 5 from the favorite list?

Thank you for your help. Really liking this challenge.

For this one, Watch an anime that focuses on non-romantic relationships, I picked Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Does this fit the category?[/spoiler]

I'd say yes.

For a 3 cour anime, can I use the first 3 seasons of Gintama?


Seasons as in the first ~36 episodes? You would need to finish it. If you mean Gintama, Gintama' and Gintama' Enchousen then yes, you would have fulfilled the requirement after finishing Gintama with 201 episodes.


Ok, so I rated Spirited Away 9/10. On that anime's info page there are recommendations such as:

Howl no Ugoku Shiro
Natsume Yuujinchou
Mushishi
Paprika
Brave Story
Kamichu!

And I pick one of those? (looks like a good list BTW)


Yes.

Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou

» Watch an anime with children in it

I think it's okay if they have a supporting role. No idea concerning the age limit.

I think it has been stated before that this is okay. //edit: On second thought, somebody needs to confirm this as I'm not sure whether "Shuraba" counts as a verb in this context.

» Watch a staff member's favorite anime


4) Does this mean the favorite, ranked first in the favorite list, or does it include all 5 from the favorite list?

Thank you for your help. Really liking this challenge.


I've seen users who have taken anime from the bottom of a staff member's favourite list so I guess it includes all five.
