| Hello I have a question zbout the quests retrictions for WHACK-A-MOLE, what do I do if an item doesn't exist with said restriction ? In my case I want to do all the quests with the romance tag, but it doesn't exist for my mean scores "erotica", neither for "boys love" ... (come on, erotica / boys love have romance most of the time, just not in the tags lol), so should I take the third mean score with the right tag (ecchi, full of romance lol), or am I screwed for that restriction ? :/ |

| @Titadou Unfortunately you won't be able to use that restriction. |

(56) Watch an anime with more users in the "Plan-to-Watch" stat than the "Completed" stat (anime must finish airing before you start it)
Would the Kaijuu No. 8 Hoshina OVA count for this? It "finished airing" back in March but was only truly released today (at least on CrunchyRoll) so the PTW:Completed Ratio is extremely skewed at least at the time of writing

| @stonystone It will be ok, we look at the date stated on MAL. Also it's still valid now. |

If I started watching an anime this year, but I don't fully remember the exact date when I started watching it, what would you prefer me to put as the start date in my entries?
| @anitanobasket Put an approximate date, your best guess. :) |

Two things:
(14) Watch a TV-type anime with an irregular release schedule (where at least one episode was released less than 7 days after its previous episode or more than 7 days after its previous episode)
I feel like the answer is definitely yes, but I wanted to ask just in case: If a series released its first two episodes at once, that qualifies here, right?
(82) Watch an anime by a studio you haven't seen anything from (studio cannot be listed as producer)
If, by the time we turn it in, I've seen multiple things from a studio, but I keep track of dates, can I use the first one I watched for this item?

| @kta_99 (14) Yes that would count (82) Yes if you watch something this year by a studio you haven't seen anything from and then later in the year watch something else that will still be valid |

Another question.
(47) Watch an anime that has a main character’s name/nickname/alternative name in the main title
Does this have to be their entire name? If it only includes their first or last name, but it's clear who's being referred to, is that valid?

| @kta_99 It can be just their first/last name, or a nickname listed on their character page, as long as its clear who it refers to, yes. |

| Hi hi ^^ I have a question about the item "(73) Watch an anime that has more main characters than supporting characters", if the anime (that is a movie) don't have supporting character, it still counts for the item? Thank you! |

(59) Watch an anime that has a higher score than a listed Adaptation under related anime
Two questions related to this:
1) It says "under related anime", but if we're talking about Adaptation, wouldn't that be an manga or light novel instead? I don't think that an anime can be adapted from another anime, or at least there's not very many of them.
2) The turn-in code asks for scores when you start watching. If you've already started when you write your turn-in post, should you just use the most recent scores then?

| @kta_99 1) "Related Anime" is how the "Related Entries" section used to be called. So yeah, it can be a manga or a light novel. 2) If the score is still valid, you can use the current one. |

(73) Watch an anime that has more main characters than supporting characters
I don't see any note about it needing to be complete before you start like some other items do. What happens if the anime is valid for this when you start it, but later on more supporting characters are added? I don't know for sure if it will actually happen, but the one I'm looking at is Dealing with Mikadono Sisters Is a Breeze.

| @kta_99 Take a screenshot - if more characters get added later, you can link the screenshot as proof that it was valid when you started watching it. |

| For item (75) Watch a morning anime (broadcast between 6:00 and 11:59 JST) Can we use an anime that is listed in the AWC helper tool, but doesn’t show a broadcast time on its MAL entry? The anime in question is Massugu ni Ikou. |
(56) Watch an anime with more users in the "Plan-to-Watch" stat than the "Completed" stat (anime must finish airing before you start it) For this item, I watched Kaiju No. 8: Hoshina's Day Off. At the time I watched it, it fulfilled the requirements of the item but as of today, it doesn't anymore. I took a screenshot of the stats on the day I watched it as proof of it fulfilling the item's criteria at the time. Would it still be valid? Thanks in advance! |

| @Joyboy_WoL Yes, as long as the character(s) in the user's forum set are present in that specific season. |

(40) Watch an anime that began airing the same season and year as one of the anime in your MAL favorites (favorite anime must have been completed before item is started)
Does it have to have the season listed on its MAL page? It doesn't specify that it needs to be a TV type, but other types don't have that section.

| @kta_99 Just make sure it's on the right seasonal page that corresponds to the one in your favourites (i.e. https://myanimelist.net/anime/season/2025/summer) - it doesn't have to be a TV type. |

| This may be an odd question, but will I receive an error if I include a series I began watching before the air date listed on the MAL page? For example, I started watching Kanpekisugite Kawaige ga Nai to Konyaku Haki sareta Seijo wa Ringoku ni Urareru on April 3rd, 2025 and have it as such on my list, but the database page says it began airing on April 10th, 2025. I think this may be because the first episode released early on sites like Crunchyroll before it started airing on TV. |

| @Mega_Mega Sorry for the late reply! No that won't be invalid - If you look in the "More Info" tab it explains that Crunchyroll released it early, and we do check for things like that ^^ |

Can I watch movie for item (32) ?
| @Joyboy_WoL Yes you can - a movie is generally a single episode, so as long as its over 16 minutes you are good to go |
|
| Is it alright watch anime shorter than 16 min of total time duration if it's not mentioned like in item (96) ? |
