I bet people are too intimidate by your huge list to respond huhu.
I'll try anyway with two completely different manga suggestion :
I would recommend reading Bambino! or Ai-Ren (not over 50 chapter for that one, but I have in the idea you could be interested by it , it have some similarities with Chobits, if it can raise your curiosity)

for the manga rec , I would say Tsumi to Batsu: A Falsified Romance or Kokou no Hito . For shorter manga than those , Doctor Du Ming (it's a Manhua) or Heads


I try to give some profiled recommendation , but it's quite hard when you're not on the head of the other ^^ . If those rec are completely off and don't suit the both of you , I'll completely understand

I was wonder if a story like My Girl would count for non-romantic relationship challenge. There are some romantic parts of the story but the main story is about the father/daughter bond and the relationships that they become involved in through chance meetings. I am not sure because there's some romance but it's not listed as romance in the genre section.

Thanks, I will read Akira then instead of watching the movie.

I can second that the Manga is much more complete story wise. But if you have the chance/time/possibility try to take a look at both. They are both fine pieces of work.
Also notice that the Manga exists in a colorized and a black/white version.

The manga is definitely a more complete story because getting 1200 pages into a 2 hr movie is impossible, but that opening scene in the anime is some of the best animated seqences put on film. It was just a bunch of good choices.

I'll try recommending Amon Game or Umwelt. Both Seinen. Amon Game is connected to the animated movie Cencoroll. I found the one-shot a little hard to follow, but I thought it was interesting. I liked Umwelt more, but I thought I'd give you options.

I should've just used the search engine on Batoto instead of looking individually on mangaupdates for completed 4komas. So much easier.

Yeah someone finished the anime challenge in a week too. Feels kinda lame but whatever man. If it's not legit than the only person who's cheated is herself. Now that the first person cleared it it's nice, because I can take my time with it and not be in an imaginary race to finish first.

Well, let's remember that the time we write down as sign up date might not be the day we started. Manga counts as long as it was started after January 1st and I think this list might be doable in 10 days or so. I think it's legit and I agree with AudioTsunami that if someone cheated, then they're doing it to themselves because this is a self-challenge. Either way, I really believe Neex is legit.

That's true, the only thing I found that isn't really too important but counts, is that Neex read a LN, Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria.. :P So you could see about that.

Finishing all those in 2 weeks time is doable. I once read around 150 chapters (around 20 pages/chapter) in a night. Though to do that constantly is quite amazing. I think that normally anyone could only do that if they met a really interesting manga. Different case if one got fast reading speed.

You can mark them as re-read on your list actually (although I'm not sure if you can with ongoing titles since I've never tried to), though I don't mind going by honor system here. If you say you re-read them, I'll believe you.

I was considering marking them as re-read, but I've decided against it; after all, I'll be re-reading only the chapters I've finished before 2016, and not the whole series. So, thanks for the trust and let's go by honor system (I think I'll still put the re-reading dates somewhere in my sign-up post).

The twins from Ouran Host Club have auburn hair. So that could work. It's kinda reddish brown. The main character of Rouruni Kenshin has reddish brown hair as well.

You can change it as long as you don't declare it completed. You can even keep the difficulty as "unsure" or ??? if you want to be able to change it freely.

It's only important that you clearly have a difficulty set and the number of items for that difficulty chosen when it's time to turn in your challenge.

After looking at your list, I suggest you check out Vampire Game. It is a really good manga and the story and characters get more interesting with each volume, in my opinion. I also like how it balances comedy and drama. It's completely translated in English. Hope you enjoy it :)

Thanks for the quick response! It's hard not to trust someone who shares a rather high manga compatibility with me, so I'll definitely be reading this one.
