| One of my favorite anituberisms was when people were saying Re:Zero was this intense deconstruction on anime tropes when it came out, and then years later when I got around to reading it it was just lolicon chuunige. |

I think you should be fine, as long as it is a complete volume. :) omakase said: @Shomiji could you be a little more specific? By book do you mean light novel or manga tankoubon? EDIT: ah, there's that! |

| Does anyone have any recommendations for 17? I like weird/creepy stories, but I'm open for anything ^^ |
 |
| @Shomiji Some items have a length requirement, if the item doesn't not explicitly say read a manga with x number of chapters, then anything from a one-shot to Detective Conan levels of long-running counts as long as it fits the item you're trying to use it for. |

EctoplasmicBlood said: Does anyone have any recommendations for 17? I like weird/creepy stories, but I'm open for anything ^^ Hello! :) I'm unsure as to what should be "creepy" enough for you... xD But let me try something. Would something like this sound creepy? K no Souretsu | v2.ch22 | (josei, mystery, psychological) Found some others: Mouryou no Yurikago | v6.ch41 | (seinen, horror, action) The survival situation and art leans more towards a horror, if you like. Blame! | v10.ch66 | (seinen, horror, sci-fi) The story per se is not necessarily creepy, but the environment and the art have a great chance of creeping ones out. :P 13 Club | v2.ch11 | (seinen, mystery) It's short and has a number of stories that are quite dark. Bokurano | v11.ch66 | (seinen, drama, mecha, psychological) This one is also very good. :) I see you like some yaoi, so... Itou-san | v1.ch07 | (yaoi) Aka no Theatre | v1.ch06 | (yaoi, psychological) Jigoku Meguri | v2.ch10 | (yaoi, supernatural, drama, romance) Hope you find something to your liking. |

Samii said: I've started reading Kokou no Hito and would like to know if it fits challenge no. 74, Read a manga based on real event or person It says in Wikipedia that it is "partially based on real-life mountain climber Buntarō Katō". So I wonder if it is okay for it to be only loosely based? I guess nobody saw my post so I'm quoting it... Also to clarify, the character name in the manga is Mori Buntarou and not the same as the real person Katou Buntarou. So I'm not really sure if that is acceptable. Would really like some help with this! |

omakase said: @Shuichi2 well, just reading one volumen counts, I should probably make a note of that in the list lol Oh, thanks haha. I might give Youjo Senki a try then, I didn't like the anime but the plot sounded interesting. |
Well, for the purpose of this challenge, it will count as one, yes. @Samii I could have sworn I replied to you! Sorry for the wait, yes that would count for the item of based on a real person. |

| Once again I'm doing a full BL/shounen ai list but I need help with these. (21) Read a web manga or 4-koma manga when it says web manga does it have to be in the MAL database? I'm reading one on a website called Lehzin. Does that count? (51) Read a gekiga manga (78) Read a manga recommended to you by a challenge staff member |
 |
| @i_yuuko-chan @omakase Thank you. I'll read all of them (although Nodame will have to wait). |
Scarlett_ryuken said: https://myanimelist.net/manga/94005/Kekkon_shitemo_Koishiteru fam, dis counts for tat item? Listed as semi-autobiographical so yeah, sure. @Shineee_ more PTR than Completed: Kakukaku Shikajika @podetus (78) Read a manga recommended to you by a challenge staff member - Planetes (54) Read a manga by an author and artist duo - All You Need Is Kill (41) Read a manga that takes place outside of Japan, but in the real world - Emma @Mariemaia Girl Friends or Aoi Hana @EION You can use something outside the MAL database, yes. If it's on baka-updates, link that in your form, if it's not, link to the pace where you read it. I'm not sure if there's BL gekiga though?? @lady_freyja do you know any? As for a rec from a staff member No Color is one of my favorites :D @lubryka yeah, I know it's kinda long haha |

oberstein said: EION said: Once again I'm doing a full BL/shounen ai list but I need help with these. (51) Read a gekiga manga There's a change you can use MW by Osamu Tezuka for this item, it depicts a homosexual relationship (though it's not tagged as BL in MAL) and I'd say it counts a gekiga as it was published in the second half of the 70's when Gekiga was still going strong. I read that last year for the challenge... |

Scarlett_ryuken said: chibieska said: I need help for: (49) Read a manga with a protagonist who shares your hair color. My dyed hair count? Or only my natural hair color? (82) Read a manga recommended to one of your favorite manga. This about recommendation by users in manga page or what? yes the recommendations by user on the manga page thank you for help |
belugabaleia said: I'm sorry if the question is stupid, but am I allowed to increase difficulty mid challenge (or perhaps post completion, if I complete Newbie faster than I thought)? If so, should I just edit the post? Mid challenge, yes; Post completion, no. :P (Technically post-completion, yes, before you turn-in your form) "Confirm all items/details are correct before posting. Once you turn-in your challenge, you can't continue working on it, but you may edit the post to correct information." |
| Thank god for being allowed to swap an item out, I'm dumping the light novel for gekiga. @omakase sorry to add onto your pile more, but could I have a rec too please? Ideally 3-7 volumes? |
  |
| @letsgomeisei for any item in particular? If not, then Planetes |
密室殺人はなぜ美しいのか。 |
| @omakase ah, it was just the "recommended by a challenge staff member" one, so thank you very much! |
|
| Hello. For the challenge (76) Read a manga that takes place in Japan, if it's a fictional city IN Japan does that count? Or does it need to be a real japanese city? |
Nagizuma said: Hello. For the challenge (76) Read a manga that takes place in Japan, if it's a fictional city IN Japan does that count? Or does it need to be a real japanese city? I'd say if it's fictional but still in Japan it should count. @omakase for good measure |
