zombie_pegasus said: What counts as completing an anime? The anime I'm currently watching has 52 episodes and aired two years ago but episode 39 has never been subbed. There was a rule about only watching subbed episodes, would this count? The episode was a recap anyway, if that changes anything. There are raws available for the episode, but apparently all of them are low quality. As for this challenge it counts completed when you mark it like that for your list..... so as long as it appears as completed on your list I don't have any problems (since how can I confirm everyone watched or not the whole thing? xD it's likes those out there using old things they already watched, fooling only themselves...) » Watch an anime that focuses on a couple with a romantic relationship | Oniisama e… I think this anime doesn't focus in romantic relationships (?) but since I haven't watched it yet I can't decide for sure.... reading online about it just makes me believe it doesn't. » Watch an anime with a main character that is not Japanese | X-Men It's asked to use human characters, they are mutants so it would work better for the non-human item » Watch an anime that has been adapted to live action | Orange that's a manga » Watch an anime that another user has watched for this challenge | Onigiri Since that anime just started make sure that when you finish your form that user hasn't changed that anime in their form |

It can be a short one (15 or less minutes) too. Any genre is fine. Thanks, I enjoyed the series quite a bit~ |

Also, X-men has human characters. They are humans that have genetic mutations. They are all still considered human, and to call them non-human would be like calling someone with down syndrome non-human. And for the Onigiri bit, I think you'd be better off choosing something that someone has already completed(or is more popular) because if that person never completes and nobody else has it on their list, you're screwed and would have to watch a completely different anime or juggle your list around. |

There's no need to compare mutants and people with Down syndrome.... still I don't think that mutants from within the x-men universe can be considered normal humans, heck there are even aliens lol and all the MCs from that anime are mutants. |
SheyCroix said: With that, would Alphonse from Fullmetal Alchemist count as non-human since he is a human soul attached to a suit of armor or as a non-Japanese character since he's European? Mutants fall under the category of "used to be human" as they were once very much regular members of society (doesn't matter how long it was for) and are now something different. In X-men it is a bit more like Code Geass where they have different traits, but it's with their bodies instead of their minds. Also, would Ayumu from "Is This a Zombie?" count as "non-human" even though the resurrection method doesn't change his physical appearance?AudioTsunami said: Also, X-men has human characters.

Alphonse would be more as non-human, Ayumu too, from WIXOSS only the LRIGs (for that period of time) I guess since they get powers and all that, but it's debatable really... it would be better to avoid those lol don't make it so hard D: |
| Would one of the following anime work for the "kids as mc" - Challenge: Little Witch Academia Shingeki! Kyojin Chuugakkou If not, please recommend me a one cour anime that would be eligible for it (preferably comedy). |
  |
| Yeah sure, doesn't matter, the rules are unclear on that. I'm sure either one is close enough. |

SheyCroix said: Also during the duration of the challenge you are free to modify your level and/or items used for it. you can just edit your form (add/delete some challenges). i'd recommend you to read these posts about the rules again^^ i couldn't find your sign up form hence i'm not sure what your problem is but if you have any more questions after reading these posts just ask again and clarify your problem :) |
| Quick question: Can an anime based on a visual novel qualify in the "Watch an anime adapted from a novel, light novel or video game" entry? |
Best boys <3  |
Sigi-san said: SheyCroix said it was okay, so yes.Quick question: Can an anime based on a visual novel qualify in the "Watch an anime adapted from a novel, light novel or video game" entry? Here: SheyCroix said: Since someone came debating to me about it some time ago I had to research, so I found out that those are "games" for computers then that would make them fit as "video games" since that is defined as "an electronic game that involves human interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device such as a TV screen or computer monitor" (by wikipedia)..... So as to answer your question yes, VN count as a video game. |

Does it mean I have to watch another anime?@SheyCroix I think you are the only one who can answer this question. |
| @Nikechu Since you know that you are changing your name prior to turn-in, why not just use an anime that starts with an "a" in the first place?

I am trying to fill this category with it "Watch an anime that another user has watched for this challenge" A word of advice, you might not want to use that because if whoever is using it for their challenge does not finish it by the time you turn in your entry, it won't count. But on page 36 alone, there seems to be 6 people using it for their challenge, just ctrl+f Hero. |

| Hey guys I'm just wondering how old the girls are suppose to be in this: http://myanimelist.net/anime/31793/Mahou_Shoujo_Nante_Mou_Ii_Desukara because I actually have no idea and I wanted to put it in "watch smt with children as the main cast". |

She's in the second year of junior high, so 13-14. I'm not sure if this anime can pass tho, since there is only one girl listed as main chara and the other main is a mysterious creature? @SheyCroix will tell you. |
XengRyu said: Can I will add Assassination Classroom in "Watch an anime that has been adapted to live action" after watching the second season? I saw this news. For that item you have to consider - If watched during the challenge period = ok - The first season works - The 2nd season still not sure since the 2nd LA film barely aired (in March) so I don't know if the contents of that one are the same as the second season (second movie it's title "Graduation" so we can get an idea...) .... so instead of the second season I recommend you to pick something else or wait for/find more details about it.

This was asked before and since there's no specific age for Miton it was decided to not be allowed for that item. |

It's got a 4 episode OVA, which you could try to see if you like it before going into the main series. |
