 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
Also during the duration of the challenge you are free to modify your level and/or items used for it. So I can start with hard and after I realize I won't make it I can go down to easy? Kinda feels like cheating, but that's how my challenge will ultimately end. |

Nanatsu no taizai, Solid shounen that's getting a second season, relies on the mystery of its characters and setting to intrigue you. Durararara. Up to you since its made by the guy that made Baccano I'll check out Nanatsu no Taizai, thanks! I'll be also checking out Zetsuen no Tempest, so thank you as well! |

| Well try and find some shows to watch to fit the criteria of the challenges. Once you watch one you go back to your post in the sign up thread and edit accordingly. Depending on if you're going for easy or normal you can pick and choose which challenges you'd rather do and omit ones that are uninteresting or w/e. I could rec you a show as well if you tell me what stuff you like? |

kallah said: Watch an anime that was recently reviewed So, I assume that I have to pick an anime that has been reviewed in 2016, correct? Or can I pick something that has been reviewed on, say, December 2015? It'd make more sense to go with an anime that has been reviewed in 2016 (given that this a 2016 challenge), but the current wording doesn't seem to indicate that, so I'd like a clarification here. Preferably something reviewed this year... you won't be checking all pages to find something reviewed in December, will you? ;D Mr_Sassy_Pants said: Just for added clarification, do we need to simply WATCH part of a series (one or two episodes) that fit a given criteria or do we have to COMPLETE whatever we start?

| Honestly, I think the difficulty is too high. Why not change medium back to 30 and hard to 40? Add in a new one called 'Insane' and make that one 50. Sure it's doable to complete 50 challenges if you have no job or education, but it's insane when you have school and work, or work full-time. I'd challenge myself to complete 40 again, but definitely not 50 because that means I'd have to complete an entire serie almost every week, next to school and a part-time job. And I know I'm not the only one. |

Nagirah said: Actually the idea of having an 'insane' or 'hardcore'-difficulty with 50 anime is pretty nice. Having 4 categories of difficulty isn't that bad, is it? And also if you think about it: 50 anime per year means you have to watch one series per week at least. That's kinda hardcore if you ask me :)NickV said: Honestly, I think the difficulty is too high.

Just pick medium or easy if you don't have the time for more. I agree with Nagirah, noone forces you to complete the hard challenge. It's hard (no pun intended) because not everybody should be able to complete it easily. However, you can already complete around 20 - 24 challenges, just by watching 5 - 6 seasonal anime that fit the criteria. You can spread out the anime watching that way and you do not have to watch so much at once. You could probably complete even more challenges if you find more seaonsal anime that work. |
| |
| Well yea this is suppose to be for fun and to give some kind of incentive to break down your PTW list somewhat. But the idea of an insane difficulty that's next-to-impossible to complete for even the most die hard neet sounds intriguing as well. |
Thanks! That is something I haven't heard of but looks like something I might enjoy. Personally, I'm fine with 50. I managed to do last year's challenge twice (so 80 total). Just make sure you mix in some shorter stuff like movies and short OVAs with TV series. |

| Never done this before, but here's hoping this will motivate me to actually finish things this year. Hopefully I'm doing things right... I have a question though. For the "finish an anime from your on-hold/dropped list", does the show have to have been put there during the challenge? There's the "anime you choose to use for the challenge must be watched during the challenge period" rule, and they contradict each other a little bit. I also have several series where I've seen a couple of episodes and they're on my on-hold list. I'd like to finish them off, but would they count towards the challenge? For most of them I'll probably rewatch those episodes anyway, but... Nagirah said: I have problems with finding an anime for "Watch an anime with a non-human main character" Any suggestions? I am really tempted to put Clannad there, but I don't think it really counts. Just, because she looks like an insect doesn't mean she is one. Can I still put it there? I think your best bet would be to go with something supernatural, since there are shows where the main character is a youkai/demon/whatever. Noragami might count, for an example from your completed list. Otherwise there are kids shows like Hamtaro where they're all hamsters but lol. Or you could try Shinryaku! Ika Musume, the main character is a squid girl thingy, but whatever she's meant to be she's not human. It's a good comedy. |

I guess Kanon (2006) is an anime I've had on my PTW for a while, I want to watch it but ... at the same time I want to watch shows I know that are very strong and potentially more entertaining. I've never started an anime without finishing it. |
