I planned to keep all the sequels/prequels as an emergency supply, cause watching 50 new TV series with all series related to it could turn out to be too hard. But I will still try not to use them! :] Even though its allowed, I made a personal rule for myself that I'd watch everything related to a show I've entered for every challenge. As the entire Watching Challenge is made so you watch shows you normally wouldnt ... and with sequels / prequels or anything related you pretty much know what the anime is etc. But hey ... each to their own :D |

| @SheyCroix, thanks for the clarification. I was quite pleased with the random word I got and am glad I can use one of the anime it pointed to. I still need a recommendation from you guys, just send a title my way. Getting something from a director/studio I hadn't seen anything from before is turning to be a bigger hurdle than I thought. |

| If I started watching Bakemonogatari on Jan 2, 2016 and finished it on Jan 6, and I registered on the anime watching challenge shortly after that (same date), can I include Bakemonogatari as an anime I that I completed for a specific requirement (i.e. Vampire anime) considering that the whole time I watched Bakemonogatai, I was within the constraints of the challenge? |

Yes , any anime counts as long as you've started watching in 2016. For example, you could start the challenge halfway through 2016 and enter all the anime you've seen this year for any challenge you desire. |

| I know there was some kind of weird stipulation with dropped stuff, where if you dropped it and then picked it back up it was okay, or something along those lines. How does that work in the case of God Eater? It aired the first 9 episodes last year, then went on hiatus because they ran out of budget, and are back and running the last 4 episodes this year. Does that bring into the dropped anime rule? Or is God Eater just ineligible for anyone that was watching during it's airing period? |

You haven't witnessed the greatness of Kei Oyama yet (though that almost feels like cheating). Haven't really checked you whole list but perhaps Hiroyuki Yamaga. Anyway lets try again since nobody gave me a rec yesterday: Can anyone give me a recommendation? I would appreciate it if it's something you consider to be a hidden gem, but anything else is fine too |
| If someone would be so kind (who is participating in the challenge, of course), I need two recommendations (or a lot of recommendations with two different criteria) 1.

I've never bothered with start and end dates because I do everything on my I-pad and it's waaay easier to just put how many episodes you've watched, but for the things I watch for the challenge I'll try to remember to put the dates in there ~^.^~ I dislike putting dates as well, but for this challenge I'll make an exception. |

| Right sweet I was going to ask if this was happening and then I checked and seen the post :D I'll gladly participate as soon as I finish Bleach, and because people have already asked the questions about anime you've already started, etc, that's all cleared up, so I'll just continue to watch the anime I'm watching now and finising bleach then I'll start this challenge. Can't wait! |

My favourite genres are sports, seinen and psychological^^ thanks! It's a long ride but you get at least 6 categories scratched off(9 if you finish the OVAs and the Movie). It's basically the equivalent of a couple shorts, a movie, and 6 2 cour-s. I'm doing the same deal, and I've been binge watching it. |

It's around 13 episodes and has a similar feel to Mushishi. Easy going but interesting. The cat also serves as a comic relief here and there. Oh not to mention that it is deep, moving, and thought provoking with great character development. The art and soundtrack is refreshing as well. |

I just tried watching Brave 10, I am 5 minutes in and I feel like every minute I watch is just one regret after another. Really depends on what you like, but the best suggestion I have is find a short anime (as in the episodes are short) such as Teekyuu. They tend to be rated low but they're actually pretty funny, assuming you share the humor, and you can get through them fairly quick. So it's a fast watch and relatively painless. |
| Can I please get a recommendation for "Watch an anime recommended to you by another Anime Watching Challenge participant" as well as "Watch an anime with a target demographic that does not apply to you" I'm a 18 y/o female. |

Done said: Either go the full way and watch Mars of Destruction, Nami, or Glasslip, or watch an unpopular anime like Yama no Susume or Nijiiro☆Prism Girl which mainly have low ratings because of the small rating pool. There are also some anime like Ore Twintails, Himegoto, Hacka Doll The Animation, Anitore! EX, Moetan, Urawa no Usagi-chan, and Weiß Survive which are fairly rated yet still enjoyable.Someone help me please.

The story writing is a mess and it has a lot of moe but the adventure/road trip feeling is great as well as the occasional over-the-top action. |

| I'm also here for a recommendation for the "Watch an anime recommended to you by another Anime Watching Challenge participant". Maybe something serious and psychological would be nice to watch.

I think, I remember reading its synopsis when it started airing. I'll try that and the Grisaia one for another category of the challenge. And yes, of course I will refer to the Story in Which I Was Kidnapped by a Young Lady's School to be a "Sample of the Common People" by its full English name. It would be a shame not to. I remember watching some episodes of Bartender few years back, liked it but never finished it for some reason. Looks like I never updated it on my list either, weird. Himouto Umaru-chan also looks like fun. Maybe I could fit that somewhere else. Does it focus on non-romantic relationships perhaps? I haven't filled that one yet. |

| » Watch an anime recommended to you by another Anime Watching Challenge participant Could someone recommend me something funny and not to long? |
| Just need some clarification. Watch a highly rated and completed anime from another challenger who posted on the same page you signed up on Do I watch an anime the challenger watched for this challenge or any anime that's highly rated on his/her list? |

The Devil is a Part-Timer (12 Episodes, one of the funniest anime I've ever seen) Baka to Test (2 seasons, 12-13 episodes each, really funny) Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken (13 episodes, 5 minutes each) |

M00ner said: Just need some clarification. Watch a highly rated and completed anime from another challenger who posted on the same page you signed up on Do I watch an anime the challenger watched for this challenge or any anime that's highly rated on his/her list? Clearly says you just have to watch an anime they rated high and completed it. So no, it doesnt have to be from the same challenge, just a user from the same page you're on. |
