@PhKay Well, basic training/AIT wasn't too bad actually. In fact, I really enjoyed the training. The weather is a different story though. The first day we were there, we stood outside in formation for orientation, and it hailed on us, on day 0. Any day we had important training to do, the weather was even worse than usual. But, other than that, the training was cool |

Imagine that you wake up tomorrow and realize that every single Anime studio decided that there won't be any more moe, high school settings, cute girls and no fan service at all; instead the Anime industry will go back to the 80s animation style, testosterone fueled, and high levels of violence and gore. How would you react? |
Jun 7, 2016 11:40 AM
#166
@PhKay Definitely :D I'm so excited to watch it's return, even if I think my team may struggle a bit, or not even get bronze @Puchkov Well, assuming I ever get to watch all of the anime that has already been made up to that point, I would just start watching whatever was next |

@jimanator Well, it definitely needs to include rabbits... Your current sig reminds me of the episode where Anko chased Tippy, maybe you could make your next siggy a gif of that? (I thought that that part was hilarious) I wasn't thinking of changing my set anytime soon, so I don't really know. Maybe you could suggest something for me? lol |

Hey Hey what do you say! It´s survey time again!! (We Are Back!!! ^^) Happy Monday and Welcome to HST Survey Number 43! As always, if you feel like participating please answer this question game until Sunday, 7pm CET. You can do the Full Version, the Quick Version or both if you feel like it! :-) Please check for your local time zone if you can´t do this survey before Sunday! If you aren´t familiar with surveying yet, here are the Overview for Newcomers: HST Surveys (named after the Monia Cafe Hot Seat Threads since this is where it all started) are fun surveys held once a week. There will be a new topic for each survey each week and we will crown a winner for each survey every Sunday. However, these surveys are not just asking for your opinions, but rather consist of a "question game" with sometimes very random questions, so you might end up with a result that will surprise you ;) Our first season which ran for 42 weeks (= 42 surveys) is over, and what you will be reading here are the rules for our 2nd season which will start on July 25th :) Participating: There are two ways to take part in the Surveys here in Monia Café! 1. If you have a Hot Seat Thread, i will be posting the new survey there every week and you can answer it there too of course. 2. If you do not have an active HST, you can take part by posting your answer right here in this thread as i will be posting the surveys here as well and change the title of the thread each week so that it fits ^^ You do not have to participate in every single survey! You can do as many or as few as you like ^^ Procedure: I will be posting a new survey each Monday. If you want to participate, please answer the survey until Sunday, 7pm CET. I will collect all results and then present the final standings on Sunday. Each Survey will consist of a "Full Version" and a Short Version. You can do only one of those two or both if you feel like it. The Full Version will always consist of 4 Steps, with Step 1 making you nominate your Anime Characters or Anime and Steps 2-4 making you eliminate them from the survey until only one nominee is left. The one left standing is your winner of course! Full Versions are designed to take you between 10-20 minutes on average, though how long you take depends on how detailed you feel like answering. Short Versions consist of 2 Steps. Step 1 is a nomination step and Step 2, called "Eliminator", will quickly bring you down to your winner by answering a few short questions. Short Versions take less than 5 minutes to complete. Each survey will be ranked like this: 1. Most Total Wins 2. More Wins from different Participants 3. More Full Version Wins 4. More Finals 5. More Total Nominations 6. If still tied, Voting Poll KEEP IN MIND THAT HST SURVEYS WILL ALWAYS HAVE ANIME CHARACTERS OR ANIME AS WINNERS! THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION BETWEEN THE PARTICIPANTS!!! How the Season works: The Season will run until the end of May 2017. Everybody who has won a Survey until then will qualify for the Finals where we will crown the Overall Champions of the Season! I archive all results! If you want to look at the 1st season, you can look up the victory presentations of all surveys in my blog section here:http://myanimelist.net/blog/PhKay Don´t spoil yourself! Don´t click the next spoiler button until you have answered the question/step you are currently at. Also don´t take this survey too seriously and have fun! ^^ BEST COMEDY!

Crown it the “Best Comedy Anime!” Step 1: Nominate 5 Anime you thought were funny/that made you laugh! The Eliminator! Eliminate one show per competition until only one Anime is left!

Let us assume that in the future, it will be mandatory for a human to transfer their minds into machines. In other words, we would become androids or robots. The advantage of this is that because we are machines, we are technically immortal and that we would not suffer the burdens that a human has to endure like hunger, disease, and exhaustion. The downside is that the human lifestyle would become extinct. No need for hospitals or schools because our thoughts are data, and sexual reproduction would no longer be necessary because our "minds" can be easily replicated and transferable from machine to machine. Would you accept this mandatory law of transitioning from human to machine, or will you rebel against that law and retain your humanity? |

Everyone who has a scene doing sports is valid as long as the sport is represented at the Olympics! Step 2: Oh no! The Anime Nations´ National Olympic Committee made a massive mistake and signed one character too little up for the Games! As a result, the characters have to hurry to Rio de Janeiro as quickly as they can, with the last one to arrive not being able to participate! Who arrives at the venue last? Eliminate him/her! Step 3: Competition time! For each competition, give 3 points to the winner and -1 point to the worst character!

Who has the best/worst discipline in order to be ready for the next morning´s events? C3: Which character is most likely to win a medal? (no -1 here! also: skip this if nobody stands the slightest chance) C4: Thousands of people are in the crowd and millions are watching all over the world so being able to handle pressure and nervousness is essential! Which character can handle it the best/the worst? Step 4: Welcome to the Final! What are your Top 3 Olympic Events you look most forward to? Let the finalists compete against each other 1 on 1 in each event you chose! If you picked team sports, pretend that the characters´ teammates all play at the same level as the character. Who wins at least 2 out of the 3? Crown him “Anime´s Olympic Champion!” In this case, crown the character you enjoyed watching more in his anime the Winner! Step 1: This week, the Olympic Games will start! It´s time for us to decide who we want to send there to represent the Anime Nation!

Bonus round: +1 to all Anime that are ranked in the top 100. +1 to all Anime that are listed under your favorite section. Step 4: Welcome to the unrestricted Final! In your opinion which Anime deserves to be considered the very best the Mecha genre has to offer, that Anime that is a must watch and a timeliness masterpiece. Crown that title as Best Mecha Anime! Step 1: Nominate at least 3 (max. 6) Anime that have a valid Mecha tag on MAL. The Eliminator! E1: Eliminate the Anime with the worst story. E2: Eliminate the Anime with the worst main characters.

Don't click the next spoiler button until you have answered the question/step you are currently at. Also don't take this survey too seriously and have fun! ^^ You can do the Full Version, the Quick Version, or both if you feel like it! THE LGBT SURVEY! (created by Conde Möhr) Since surveys were on a hiatus on the LGBT day, the corresponding survey had to be done in a different week. The time is now. Step 1: Nominate at least 5 characters that are LGBT. For those who don't know what LGBT is, it means "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender". Anything that is known to fall into that group (including intersex, asexual, and any queer character in general) can be nominated. Don't worry if you nominate too many, the survey is prepared for that. If you're short of ideas, read the "nomination helper" at the end of this post. Step 2: Every character starts with 10 points. Give or subtract points to every character according to the reasons below. The 4 characters with more points at the end of this step will advance to Step 3. In case there's a tie, you can either handpick the tiebreaker or let every tied character enter Step 3. C1: Subtract 2 points if the only appeal to the character is being LGBT ("a beautiful woman, but she has a penis", most characters in hentai...). Subtract them too if they are LGBT for comic relief (i.e. random supporting character who throws kisses to the MC). C2: Subtract 1 point if the character is ashamed of being LGBT. Add 1 point if they're proud of it. C3: Subtract 3 points if the character became LGBT involuntarily (as a side effect to something, battle only power-up, was forced to take a futanari injection...). Only counts if they weren't initially LGBT, but were forced by an external factor. C4: Subtract 1 point if the character only appears in sources with one or more of the following tags: yaoi, yuri, shonen ai, shoujo ai. C5: Subtract 3 points if the character is not an animal (a robot, a virus, a god...) or if they're considered a monster (a tentacle monster, Mewtwo...). Step 3: What's most important in life?: love, family, knowledge, sex, health, wealth. Mark every character who doesn't find love by the end of their anime or manga. Also, mark the characters who got heartbroken after finding it. Mark every character whose family doesn't accept his LGBT condition. If the character has no known family at all, mark them too. It doesn't count if the family hates the character regardless of them being LGBT. Mark every character who got bullied at school for whatever reason. If the character is known not to have gone to school (or a similar place), mark them too. If the school life of the character is unknown, don't mark them. Mark every character who is asexual. Also, mark every character who is dumped after having sex if that happens during the anime/manga. If the character visits an hospital during the anime/manga, mark them. If they fall sick, ill, or otherwise get hurt during the anime/manga; or if they have a known disability that isn't healed when the story begins (i.e. lost an eye at some point), mark them too. Mark every character who struggles with money. Being rich but struggling with debts counts. If you can see they're poor but they're not stated to struggle with money, mark them. Add the marked characters and the ones in the final. Only if you already did the 6 options in this step and you're told to redo it, open the next spoiler.
ONLY IF YOU ALREADY DID THE 6 OPTIONS AND THE RESULT ABOVE WASN'T 2 Add the marked characters and the ones in the final.
Step 4: Welcome to the Final! After the roulette of misfortune, there have 2 brave heroes fighting for the title. If they are not exactly 2, read Step 3 again to see if you missed something. At this point, you need to put your anime knowledge into play and decide if you think that an anime makes its characters, or it's the characters that make the anime. Compare your scores of the source of both characters (if there's more than one source, you can choose your favorite). If they have both the same score, compare the global score of both anime. The character whose anime has a highest score wins. If the characters have both the same score, or they are both from the same anime (you little...), refer to the other option. In this case, you can choose who you want to be the winner (and say why). If you don't want to decide that way, you're free to compare the number of MAL favorites of both characters. Crown the winner as the proud "Best Queer Character". Step 1: Nominate 4 characters that are LGBT. For those who don't know what LGBT is, it means "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender". Anything that is known to fall into that group (including intersex, asexual, and any queer character in general) can be nominated. If you're short of ideas, read the "nomination helper" at the end of this post. If you did the long survey, you can't nominate your winner of that one. The Eliminator! Eliminate a character for every competition until there's only one left. C1: The four characters fight to death (or knockout) in a Battle Royale, no rules. Who is the first one to go down? C2: The three remaining characters have a surprise test! It includes questions about basic maths, comprehensive reading, logic and world knowledge. Which character has the lowest score? If there's no clear loser eliminate the one who would do/does worse at school. C3: After being worn down both physically and mentally, the remaining competitors have to endure a marathon of the worst anime imaginable, without pausing for anything until one of them forfeits. Crown the remaining character the "Toughest Queer Character" Nominating queer characters may seem difficult at first, but if you think about it, they're not uncommon.
Thank you very much for participating in this survey! ^^ |

An anime that is mostly made up of episodes that aren't part of a larger plot; almost all episodes have a story that is told from beginning to end within that same episode.

If an anime has finished worst in at least 2 of the 3 competitions (C1-C3), disqualify it from the survey!

They have to consist of at least three related members (who all get a decent amount of screentime)! Adopted characters are allowed as well. Also, all families must have at least one female and at least one male member!! Step 2: Games competition! To qualify for the more serious part of this survey, the families have to take part in a few fun games! ^^ In each competition, the winner gets 2 points and the loser gets -1 point. After all competitions are done, the Top 3 qualify for Step 3! Eliminate the rest! TIEBREAKER: Break all necessary ties by redoing C3 with the tied families only. C1: Pick a female character from each family to fight for her team! It´s a 100m sprint in high heels! Who wins? Who finishes last? C2: Pick a male character from each family to fight for his team! It´s STILL a 100m sprint in high heels!! (haha) Who wins? C3: Of course now it´s time for the team competition! For each family, one member of your choice has to hold his/her breath. The others have to answer simple questions about the member holding his breath such as favorite color, favorite food and so on…). Once he can´t hold its breath anymore, the game is over. Which family answers the most questions correctly? Which family is worst in this game? Fairplay Award! Give 1 extra point to the family who is least likely to cheat! Give -2 points to each family who used magic/superpowers to gain an unfair advantage! Step 3: Now it´s time for more serious competitions between the three families left standing! Here, each win is worth 3 points, while a last place finish is -1 again. After all competitions, eliminate the family in last place! TIEBREAKER: In case of a tie, the family from the anime you enjoyed more as a whole advances to the final! C1: Which family overcomes fights and struggles the best/worst? C2: Which family shows the most/least love and solidarity towards each other? C3: You have to live with one of the families under the same roof for a whole year, but at least you can pick. Which family do you pick to live with? (no -1 here) Step 4: Welcome to the final! Complete the following statement: “I like *insert the family you like more** **A LOT/A LITTLE BIT** more than the other finalist” If you liked a family a lot more than the other, crown it “The Most Awesome Family in Anime!” If you liked a family a little bit more than the other, give it 3 points. Now, add together all points from Steps 2, 3 and 4! Which finalist won the most total points? Crown it “The Best Family in Anime!” Should they really be tied now, i´m afraid the final decision rests with you alone ;) Step 1: Nominate 4 great anime families! They have to consist of at least three related members! Adopted characters are allowed as well. If you did the full version too, don´t nominate your winner here again. The Eliminator! E1: Eliminate the family that fights the most! E2: Eliminate the family with the single character you dislike the most! E3: Crown the family who has the bigger positive impact on its anime the winner! Thank you very much for participating in this survey! ^^ |

Hey Hey what do you say! It´s survey time again!! Happy Monday and Welcome to HST Survey Number 53! As always, if you feel like participating please answer this question game until Sunday, 7pm CET. Please check for your local time zone if you can´t do this survey before Sunday! If you aren´t familiar with surveying yet, here are the Overview for Newcomers: HST Surveys (named after the Monia Cafe Hot Seat Threads since this is where it all started) are fun surveys held once a week. There will be a new topic for each survey each week and we will crown a winner for each survey every Sunday. However, these surveys are not just asking for your opinions, but rather consist of a "question game" with sometimes very random questions, so you might end up with a result that will surprise you ;) Our first season which ran for 42 weeks (= 42 surveys) is over, and what you will be reading here are the rules for our 2nd season which will start on July 25th :) Participating: There are two ways to take part in the Surveys here in Monia Café! 1. If you have a Hot Seat Thread, i will be posting the new survey there every week and you can answer it there too of course. 2. If you do not have an active HST, you can take part by posting your answer right here in this thread as i will be posting the surveys here as well and change the title of the thread each week so that it fits ^^ You do not have to participate in every single survey! You can do as many or as few as you like ^^ Procedure: I will be posting a new survey each Monday. If you want to participate, please answer the survey until Sunday, 7pm CET. I will collect all results and then present the final standings on Sunday. Each Survey will consist of a "Full Version" and a Short Version. You can do only one of those two or both if you feel like it. The Full Version will always consist of 4 Steps, with Step 1 making you nominate your Anime Characters or Anime and Steps 2-4 making you eliminate them from the survey until only one nominee is left. The one left standing is your winner of course! Full Versions are designed to take you between 10-20 minutes on average, though how long you take depends on how detailed you feel like answering. Short Versions consist of 2 Steps. Step 1 is a nomination step and Step 2, called "Eliminator", will quickly bring you down to your winner by answering a few short questions. Short Versions take less than 5 minutes to complete. Each survey will be ranked like this: 1. Most Total Wins 2. More Wins from different Participants 3. More Full Version Wins 4. More Finals 5. More Total Nominations 6. If still tied, Voting Poll KEEP IN MIND THAT HST SURVEYS WILL ALWAYS HAVE ANIME CHARACTERS OR ANIME AS WINNERS! THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION BETWEEN THE PARTICIPANTS!!! How the Season works: The Season will run until the end of May 2017. Everybody who has won a Survey until then will qualify for the Finals where we will crown the Overall Champions of the Season! I archive all results! If you want to look at the 1st season, you can look up the victory presentations of all surveys in my blog section here:http://myanimelist.net/blog/PhKay Don´t spoil yourself! Don´t click the next spoiler button until you have answered the question/step you are currently at. Also don´t take this survey too seriously and have fun! ^^ You can do the Full Version, the Quick Version or both if you feel like it! BEST TEARJERKER! (sponsored by Shinji) Step 1: Nominate four Anime that made you cry or (if you aren´t the emotional type) have the potential to make a lot of people cry! Step 2: Competition time! For every competition, give 3 points to the winner and -1 point to the anime doing the worst job. After all competitions, send the anime with the most points straight to the final (Step 4)! Eliminate the anime in last place! The other two anime are moving on to Step 3. TIEBREAKER: If two or more shows are tied for 1st or 3rd place, break the tie by redoing C1 with the tied shows only. C1: Which anime has the characters you care/root for the most/least? C2: Which anime uses music the best/worst to increase the impact of its emotional scenes? C3: Which anime has the most/least dramatic story development? C4: Which anime features the single most emotional moment? (no -1 here) Step 3: For both anime in this Step, compare the overall MAL rating with your own rating. Send the anime with the smaller gap between your rating and the MAL rating to the final! Step 4: Welcome to the final! There´s only one deciding question left to ask… Which finalist made you cry/feel it more? Crown it “The Best Tearjerker”! Step 1: Nominate four Anime that made you cry or (if you aren´t the emotional type) have the potential to make a lot of people cry! If you also did the Full Version, you can´t nominate the winner of it here again. The Eliminator! E1: Eliminate the anime with the lightest atmosphere! E2: Eliminate the anime with the least drama scenes! E3: The anime that made you cry more wins! Thank you very much for participating in this survey! ^^ |

(created by sytemet) Step 1: Nominate four anime that dazzled you by being completely out there. Anything goes as long as you thought it was crazy! Step 2: Competition time! Every competition awards points and may sentence penalties. After all competitions, send the anime with the most points straight to the final (Step 4)! Eliminate the anime in last place! The other two anime are moving on to Step 3. TIEBREAKER: If two or more shows are tied for 1st or 3rd place, break the tie by redoing C1 with the tied shows only. C1: Rank the competitors according to the craziness of their premise. Give them +2, +1, 0, -1 points with the craziest gaining 2 points and the most normal losing one. C2: Give the anime with the most creative visual effects and art direction +2 points. The anime with the most uninspired visuals is given a *BLANK CANVAS*, which will stick with it for the rest of the survey. The anime with a *BLANK CANVAS* cannot get more than 1 point from a single competition hereafter! C3: Which anime is the best at hiding themes/social commentary/thought-provoking subtexts behind its insane façade? Give it +1 point and a *MONOCLE OF VIRTUE*. The anime with a *MONOCLE OF VIRTUE* will always win in the tiebreakers. The anime with the least substance cannot gain any points in C5. C4: Which anime is the least predictable? It steals away a point from the anime that has the most points and is not this anime! If there is a tie, the point gets snatched from the more predictable one unless it has *MONOCLE OF VIRTUE*. The least predictable anime gets -1 point. C5: Time to give out bonus points. Give +1 points for each anime that: Has a staff member in your favourites Has under 100k registered users You have watched more than once Greatly exceeded your expectations Step 3: Think of the most ridiculous scene in each of the competitors in this step. The Anime with the most ridiculous scene is sent to the finals. Eliminate the other. Step 4: Welcome to the Final! Choose one: Anime is… If one of the anime has *MONOCLE OF VIRTUE* it wins. Otherwise the anime with the higher mean score on MAL wins! If one of the anime has *BLANK CANVAS* it loses. Otherwise the anime which is favorited by more MAL users wins! Crown the Winner “The Most Eccentric Anime!” Step 1: Nominate four anime that dazzled you by being completely out there. Anything goes as long as you thought it was crazy! Remember that if you also did the Full Version, you can´t nominate your Full Version winner here again! The Eliminator! E1: Eliminate the Anime with the least crazy characters! E2: Eliminate the Anime with the least crazy story! E3: The Anime that makes less sense or doesn´t take itself serious wins! Thank you very much for participating in this survey! ^^ |

Let us assume that watching movies includes anime. Eating satiates hunger, Sleeping replenishes energy, and Anime maintains your sanity. Of the three activities that the true man cannot live without, which among them do you think is the most essential? |
