Since I haven't seen some of these answered yet, I'll try.

Does Gunslinger Girl work for watch an anime with mainly kids as the cast? I think it does, but I want to make sure.

Gunslinger Girl doesn't work, since at least a couple of the girls are older than 12, which is the cutoff age for this challenge. I can recommend you Dennou Coil, it's what I used for this challenge and none of the mains are older than 12.

For, "Watch an anime that has been adapted to live action," does the live action adaptation have to have aired after the anime? If a novel series has been adapted into a live action TV drama, a live action movie, and an anime, does it matter that the anime is the most recent adaptation?

IIRC, I think I read here once that the live action should be based on the anime and cover the same events, so I think the anime has to have come first, but I'm not 100% sure about this.

Now for a question of my own.
If I start the challenge for a second time, can I use anime that I watched before finishing my first challenge if I didn't use them yet or do I have to use only anime from after when i turned in the first challenge?

I can never decide so I'll just give you a bunch of some series I've enjoyed :D

SoL:
Fruits Basket (shoujo with supernatural element)
Hibike! Euphonium
Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai
Kimi to Boku (some romance involved)
Paradise Kiss
Bakuman (if you enjoy longer series)
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu

Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic (adventure)

Also, Kanon and Clannad are a must-watch for everyone.

I'd recommend Ajin. I thought it genuinely interesting - mostly because I haven't seen an anime with the same type of non-human character.


please use the corresponding thread

I just want to know if Kud from Little Busters counts as "not Japanese"?

I know she is still a quarter Japanese, but she is 3 quarters Russian.
I guess it matters based on whether the purpose of the challenge is to find an anime that takes place outside of Japan or at least includes more "worldly" characters, or if it is just about finding some merely exotic characters inside an already very Japan centered medium.

yes, she wasn't born in Japan

@KMH as long as you didn't use them for the first challenge it's okay
@SunflowerDaisho that answer, as long as it's the same story (or over 90%) it works

@virtual_core thanks for the banners! will add them~

Hey guys, could I get some recommendations for the last category I have left? I watched something that I thought would fit, but after I finished it, I realized that it really didn't.

» Watch an anime that focuses on a couple with a romantic relationship

I would greatly prefer a 1-cour anime, but otherwise I don't care what it is as long as it focuses on a couple with a romantic relationship.

Sukitte Ii na yo. fits this criteria. I would describe this anime as calm/mild/slow-paced.
Actually, Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji might also do, but I personally did not enjoy it much :(

Both seem pretty enjoyable, and I do plan to complete the challenge twice, so I'll watch them both. Sukitte Ii na yo seems like I'd like it better, so I'll watch it first. Thanks!

People seem to cut the edges with this challenge... I would say yes, although one of the main characters is in the seventh's grade. This could mean she is already 13/14 which, according to people here, is really borderline for being a child.

Oh thankfully! Yeah I originally was searching for a series of about 12 episodes with the main characters being 10 or younger, but I didn't succeed in finding any that I thought I would like.

Just curious for next year, could you maybe recommend me such a show if you know any? :)

So I just saw the sign up thread for first time, and I'm a bit confused about joining in.

Does every anime that I watched this 2016 count for the challenge? If yes, the thing is that how can I confirm that I watched them this year?, the start/finished date thing of the MAL list only has 3 anime listed with the day I finished them (and all of them are from last year so they don't count).

Also there is this challenge:

» Watch an anime that has been on your Plan to Watch list for too long

I don't use the PTW part, can I use one that I had in my mind to watch for some time?

1. You can use every series you started in 2016 and finished in 2016.

2.. If you go to your list you can click the little "edit" button behind the series title. You can enter a start and finish date there. Usually when you update a series which sets it to "watch" and "complete" it will enter a start and finish date automatically. Since you can just enter whatever date, that doesn't really count as proof though. You don't need one. This is the nature of MAL.

3. I would say yes.

I've been circling the globe to find an anime that I would like for this...

Does Little Witch Academia work for watch an anime with the main cast as kids???

Also can someone recommend me a movie that's about this blonde loli vampire and it's split into three parts? I believe the vampire needed the MC's blood in order to regenerate but couldn't barely do it. Now, they're trying to find her limbs, so she can fully form her final transformation. This movie is also part of a long running series and is the last one in the series.

1. Dunno...

2. Really? I dunno if that counts as recommendation if you ask specifically for one movie... It destroys the purpose of the challenge. You can narrow the options but the anime should still be picked by someone else but you. Just watch Kizumonogatari on your own if you want to?

I think that would count.

I haven't seen anyone say anything about this, but I would think anything with 75% of one gender would be enough. (For example three male characters, one female.) But of course I can't promise this answer to be sufficient.

I personally played it safe by choosing an anime with the main cast of only one gender.

So when you say "watch an anime" does that include OVAs and movies? I've been avoiding putting OVAs and movies on my list exept the entries that call for them since I didn't know if they would count in the other entries.. So, do they count or do you have to find an anime with at least 12 eps?

The OVAs and movies also count as "watch an anime" and can be included for many of the challenges, so long as the challenge does not state a specific amount of episodes or cours to complete it. I have a few OVAs and movies included in my challenge completion list.
