| I have a question: I changed my name half-way through the challenge. For the ones where I need a screenshot with my username as evidence (such as "Watch an anime suggested by MAL or by Anime+ "), do I need to redo those ones? Or am I still okay? |

 now i will tell you what ive done for you fifty thousand tears ive cried maybe ill wake up for once screaming deceiving and bleeding for you and you still wont hear me going under dont want your hand this time ill save myself just when id thought id reached the bottom im dying again |
| For challenge #107: finish a dropped or on-hold anime. The rules state that you need to watch something you dropped before July 2017, and that you should have screenshots to prove it. I didn't join mal until August of 2017, so i don't have any proof of when i started the show i used for that challenge. What should i do in that case? |
| If I had a nickel for every anime that began airing on October 9th 2022 that started with a B and ended in "ock", I would have two nickels. That's not a lot, but it's funny that it happened twice.    |
| @DistructiveNick Change this item for another one from the same tier. |

SakaRaki said: I watched Kumo to Tulip for the 1917-1959 challenge last year and it was pretty enjoyable for what it was. Nothing spectacular, and I had to watch it without subs but it was short and decent enough.Hey there ya'll I was thinking about doing the anime challenge of watching an anime between 1917 and 1959. And the other one of 1960 to 1979. Does anyone know of any that would be good from these times to watch? And preferably legal as well? I also have VRV, netflix, and Hulu. If that is of any help. I've heard Lupin III is pretty good for the 1960-1979 challenge, but I can't necessarily vouch for it. (I plan on watching it for my challenge item). Good luck finding anything pre-1979 legally. Streaming sites tend to not go back that far, so the only way would be finding old physical copies which could get really tricky. Personally, I'd say to grit your teeth and go by less moral routes, but I get that some people really have a problem doing so. |

(31) Watch a Featured Anime: (52) Watch a completed anime with less than 2,500 completed members: Features anime has something to do with Featuers Articles? If so, I think most animes are mentioned. Here some anyway: Aktatsuki no Yona Psycho-Pass Sakamichi no Apollon Pandora Hearts Tears to Tiara About less than 2500, that what I found: Sekai Meisaku Douwa: Hakuchou no Mizuumi Ginyuu Mokushiroku Meine Liebe Wieder (2nd season): yme1983 said: Can someone tell me what constitutes an 'Original' anime for the challenge? I'm new to this whole challenge thing. yme1983 said: Can someone tell me what constitutes an 'Original' anime for the challenge? I'm new to this whole challenge thing. If you enter an anime page, you can say its origin. Sometimes, it's not based on anything, so it original. (other options: manga, novel, light novel, games, music) Some examples: Psycho-Pass Endride Project K Re:Creators Star Driver: Kagayaki no Takuto |

| Would Mugen no Ryvius fit this? It began airing in Oct 6, 1999 and finished in Mar 29, 2000. (46) Watch an anime which began airing between 1990 and 1999. Or does it need to be an anime that started airing before 1999? |

| G'day, people! I have a question about the challenge 83. I want to watch Lupin III - Cagliostro no Shiro, but I didn't watch Lupin III before. It's a parent story, not a prequel or a sequel. It's valid for the challenge? Thanks! |

| @boredrandomguy @Ranacchi @Yta_kawaii It's stated in the Challenge List with Explanations post but "Completed anime = anime that already finished airing" OfDeathandLove said: I have a question: I changed my name half-way through the challenge. For the ones where I need a screenshot with my username as evidence (such as "Watch an anime suggested by MAL or by Anime+ "), do I need to redo those ones? Or am I still okay? Depends the item. For most of them you will be okay as long as you add a note before the challenge list saying you changed your username and that's why they have it like that. Do check the explanations post to see of any of your items requires of you to change the anime for another with the new username. tlato_but said: I need recommendations for these 2 challenges: 91) Watch a completed anime adapted from a manga with a score of 6.50 or lower 92) Watch a completed anime with a score of or below 5.00 I'd prefer if both have horny hot girls (only ecchi) and very few blood, please.

| Ok, so I have 2 things: Number 72 says: Watch an anime with a title that starts with the last letter of your username - only letters. Exclude any numbers and/or special characters; This means that you have to watch an anime which title starts with the same last letter your username has. In my case an anime that starts with D; if you change your username before you finish the challenge you have to change this accordingly. Now nowhere does it say it has to be the title used by the website so would Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit work for me since the last letter of mine is M?Edit: it does say it in the tab at the top of the web browser, but is in parentheses. Still don't know if that counts. Number 27 says: Watch an anime recommended to you in the challenge discussion thread - ask for an anime there and link the reply with the recommendation here Soooooo... I kinda need one... |
 Sometimes you just gotta realize that you can't watch every anime you want to. The struggle is far too real for that. |

Houseki no Kuni - Highly recommend. One of my favs of all time. The CGI might be off putting at first but looks better for what it's trying to do than could be achieved hand drawn imo. Inuyashiki - I enjoyed it decently. Not spectacular but fun and refreshing to have an old protag. Kujira no Kora wa Sajou ni Utau - I'm currently watching this but it's decent so far w/ pretty visuals. |
 ☆ My Anime Challenges ☆ My List ☆ |
| For requirement (96) "Watch an anime with 5 or more human adults as the main cast", It asks for clearly stated ages. Is this a hard and fast requirement? The anime I was wanting to watch for this, Joker Game, does not have any ages stated anywhere I can find. However, in the anime characters database, it lists all main cast as "adult males". Is that sufficient for having an adult cast? |

ecem_ilgun said: Hi, I have a question about: (81) Watch an anime which began airing the same day you joined MAL. I have joined on 15th of February, and believe me I have tried the advanced search page to find an anime which started on that date. But animes that started at april etc also show up on the search. Can someone help me/teach me how to find the anime that started at 15th of Feb? It can be any month/year, it just has to have started on the 15th I'm not sure how others search for this, but I select 'finished airing' and add the column 'start date', then choose some genres and hit search. And then sort by score and ctrl+f '-15-'. Might not be the one of the most effective methods, but here are some that i found: Romeo no Aoi Sora, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, Mimi wo Sumaseba and Kuragehime |
