I'll watch Death Parade and an early film of Miyazaki (maybe Tonari no Totoro). |

| Question: I just watched season 1 and 2 of Working!!. Now if I were to complete the currently airing season 3 of Working!! would that qualify as completing the challenge of --- Watch an anime three-cours or more in length. Edit: Nevermind, checked old queries and apparently it has to be one single entry. |
| I'm having trouble with » Watch an early work of an established anime staff member (10+ roles). I really have no clue what can I watch for this. |
| Well I have a fewbquestions about this that I didn't get 1. If I start now only anime i watch after this will be counted or I can go with any i have watched this year even before I signup? 2. Only anime that start or end in 2015 counts? 3. If i have already watched an anime before 2014 then do i have to 9rewatch it to make it count or I'll have to search for another anime 4. How will it be checked weather someone actually completes the challenge? Random questioning? |
 |
| rameshbhutak16: 1. If you want, you can use any anime you have watched this year. 2. No..? you can use any anime, regardless of when it started. 3. Why you can't just watch some new anime? 4. I don't know but probably none will check it, since it's more like challenge to yourself. |

|
yhunata said: I kinda realised that. Problem is there is no indication on any of the staff member pages as to when they started working, so I don't really know what can be taken as "early work" unless I go through all of the anime listed on someone's page and sort them by years.Not_At_All said: I'm having trouble with » Watch an early work of an established anime staff member (10+ roles).

Just go through the anime entries at hand and watch something with the earliest airing date, though it doesn't need to be the earliest. Something from the 80s or 90s would be good enough. In cases like Makoto Shinkai, early 2000s would also be fine. |

| For the children challenge, how young qualifies? For the non-Japanese title challenge, is it an anime that does not have a Japanese name at all or something like Overlord that has the English title on the poster but also has a Japanese name? |

For the non-Japanese title challenge, is it an anime that does not have a Japanese name at all or something like Overlord that has the English title on the poster but also has a Japanese name? For the first, anyone younger than teenage qualifies, I guess. For the second, it's talking of the official title. See Death Note, Overlord, Death Parade, One Piece, etc... |

Pretty open to most things, and even considered/started watching those shows. I'll go with Uchouten Kazoku most likely, since I'm kind of set that I will read the Aku no Hana manga at some point. As for Usagi Drop, I really wish I hadn't picked up the manga before finishing the show, alas, we never know what awaits us in life, haha. General recommendations are ok too, still need stuff for some entries that I'm undecided for what I'll watch. Here's my sign up form (it's up to date), so if something interesting comes to mind for any of the non-completed entries, I'd appreciate a recommendation for it~. |

| I need a recommendation. Preferably mystery or/and horror with one cour (or two, it doesnt matter). |
eraldo-dono said: I need a recommendation. Preferably mystery or/and horror with one cour (or two, it doesnt matter). I see you haven't watched Shinsekai Yori. I'll recommend that you give it a try. It has a mystery vibe to it and can get creepy at times. Kindaichi is a mystery, that has a sequel coming up soon. Not much of a horror, though. |
|
| Hi ~ . Can I ask for a recommendation as well? I'm looking for a title that could be considered deep, dark, and maybe a little creepy and mysterious (kinda like Paranoia Agent). Otherwise, I wouldn't mind a Josei focused on characters that are in college or older. Thanks to anyone who might be able to help me out here (^◡^). |

| Okay, I am getting close to the end so now I think it is time for "Watch an anime recommended to you by another Anime Watching Challenge participant." I'd like something I can watch on a streaming site as this will be the anime I watch at lunch for a while. Also, has to be Safe for Work. I have Netflix, Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Amazon Prime. I'll watch something on Hulu also but I'd really prefer on the other services since I won't have to watch commercials (they take up precious time at lunch). Thanks! |

Takes a while for it to really get going, though. While it doesn't have Shojo-Ai tones, Working!! is a very good slice of life that you could try. Similarly, there's Servant x Service which was made by the same guy. |

| Suggest me an anime please!!! |

TheExplorer said: I suggest you check out xxxHolic. Just in case you don't know anything about it, the series is mainly about a high school guy who works part-time for a witch in return for her protection from ghosts. Sounds simple, but the story gets complicated and I don't want to say anymore for fear of spoiling something. It's mainly supernatural and philosophical with mystery and comedy mixed in. I'm recommending it based on your completed list and scores. Suggest me an anime please!!! Another suggestion for you is Lunar Legend Tsukihime. This is supernatural/mystery with complications and a bit of craziness well done. In fact, I would suggest this one for you more than xxxHolic based on your list xD |

Merodiak said: Hello, can I ask for a anime recommendation? Something not so long (I'm mean 12-24 episodes) and definitely not shounen would be nice. :) Try (one of) these: Xam'd: Lost Memories. It's an anime original, so isn't shonen but has action in it. C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control. 11 Episodes and another anime original. Does have action, but has an interesting spin on it. Giant Killing. 26 episodes and Seinen. It follows a football team rising from the graves. Great anime, imo. Kino's Journey: They Beautiful World. Has a movie prequel, though I'd say you can watch this first. It's very... down-to-Earth is the best way I can describe it. |

| Maybe a silly question but for the "» Watch an anime that has been adapted to live action", does it count if the live action came first? |
