Tealjow said: Hi, I'm wondering if Mao from Darker than Black (or the sequel) is suitable for challenge I.15 "Watch an anime with a non-humanoid main character". The challenge explanation mentions we can't use a character that can transform into a humanoid form. Mao's character page says "Mao's ability is to possess the bodies of other animals", so I guess it's possible he can turn into a humanoid, but I have no idea if he does so (which would disqualify the series). Can anyone advise if Mao is okay? You can try to watch Ou Dorobou Jing. Nice relaxed anime (relatively, anyway). |

| Hello i have a question regarding the item Intermediate #25 Watch an anime featured in another participant's forum set — participants are those that post in the sign-up thread and haven't withdrawn from the challenge; forum set refers to their signature images and forum avatar; state the username and initial post number; link to their post; save a screenshot in case they change it If i save the screenshot now but start watching the anime in like 2 weeks, would it still be valid when the user changes his Profil? |

Yes, that is the purpose of the screenshot. It doesn't matter if that user later changes their forum set. |

Thanks for the tip. I've managed to shuffle my challenges around and I'm able to use Darker than Black for that non-humanoid criteria. I don't think I can watch Jing with my remaining challenges, but I've added it to my plan-to-watch list, I'll get around to it at some point. |
| Can I get a rec please. I would prefer something that doesn't have an all or mostly female cast please. Thank you. |

breathesunshine said: Can I get a rec please. I would prefer something that doesn't have an all or mostly female cast please. Thank you. I know many (As I don't watch these animes)I know you got something, but maybe you want more options. Akatsuki no Yona: Kind of Harem, but it's the main genre. DRAMAtical Murder: No, it's not a yaoi (the ova is, but hey, I never recommended it... or watched it). There idiotic meaningless little kiss between two guys, but that's it. Hardly any females. Gankutsuou: Warning - Heavy theme Katsugeki/Touken Ranbu: No girls at all Kurshotsuji - Book of Circus: Yeah, yeah, yeah, the animation reminds a shoujo. But believe me, it's far from that. Quite heavy theme. Orange: 3 guys, 2 girls. Main girl though. The Royal Tutor, Heine: No girls. Okay, a minor one... or 2? Owari no Seraph: In the main group there are 2 girls out of 5 (though one of the guys isn't too manly), but other than that, most of the cast are male. Trigun: A classic worth watching. Hope you'll find anything interesting (even if unrelated) |

| Hello everybody. May somebody give me some recommendations for these challenges: (I.06) Watch an anime that began airing between 1980 and 1989 (Having a hard time with this one for some reason) (I.13) Watch a completed anime scored 4 or less from an anime challenge team member (I'm not fully certain as to what a "Anime Challenge Team Member" is, whether that means a person who's participating in the challenge, or a person who setup the challenge, such as a M.A.L moderator, but, hopefully somebody here can help me out. An Anime that is popular, only, you rated it 4 of less would be preferred, but, not necessary) Thanks alot! |

| 23. Watch an anime with more than 16 minutes in total and rated G or PG Does PG-13 count? |
arandompandah said: 23. Watch an anime with more than 16 minutes in total and rated G or PG Does PG-13 count? PG-13 would not count as it's an entirely separate rating than G or PG. |

| Just to make sure, for Ad.17 "Watch an anime with an honorific in the title", would Plastic Neesan be valid? |

arandompandah said: 23. Watch an anime with more than 16 minutes in total and rated G or PG Does PG-13 count? PG is PG (kids), PG-13 is separate. Tubbyman said: Just to make sure, for Ad.17 "Watch an anime with an honorific in the title", would Plastic Neesan be valid? Neesan has the honorific "san" in there so I'd say valid. MathValim said: I'm at the novice level, trying to watch all the 31 items. Does that count as a "restriction" or I'm just making it difficult for me without no reason? You're only making it difficult for yourself, as you'll have to remove the excessive (11 items) from your list to get the required amount. |
| Hello just want to make sure for the item Intermediate 24 Watch an anime with 6 or more words in the title — excludes symbols/numbers in the title; the words must be separated by a space How do japanese titles count? For example would Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen be valid? Do the wa and no count as words? |

| I want to make sure, but can I use an anime I put On Hold for the anime challenge? I put it on hold before 2019 and I only watched 3 ep. before putting it on hold. If I were to watch it again and put it off hold, would it count? |

For all other items, the anime must be watched in its entirety in 2019. |
| I'd like a recommendation please! no ecchi |
  |
| I've read the FAQ but still don't quite understand, forgive me, so I'm asking here... how do airing anime work within this? For instance, we have to start one section after the other right. So if we're using an airing anime for one section, do we have to wait for it to finish airing before we start the next section? We cannot use it for the next section, because we started it before we'll be starting the next section right. So airing anime are something we should largely discount? @SuperComicGeek You seemed to really enjoy Haikyuu. How about Ookiku Furikabutte? |

Also, can someone recommend me something for (Ap.29) Watch an anime recommended to you in the challenge discussion thread? Anything's fine but please try to keep it 2 cours max if you recommend tv series, ty. |

| Watch an anime with at least 3 human children as main characters Does Mob Psycho 100 II count? Or are they too old? |
HelloDarkness52 said: Watch an anime with at least 3 human children as main characters Does Mob Psycho 100 II count? Or are they too old? Middle school is too old. I think Gakuen Alice should be fine (I read the manga and quit for some reason... cam't remember why). Except this and Card Captor Sakura (not clear cards), I can't think of a single thing. Sorry. |
|
| Ty @bigdud24, I really enjoyed the first season of Mob and, having planned the challenge before the 2nd season ended, I didn't include it so I won't let this chance go. As for @HelloDarkness52, you can watch Kodomo no Jikan too from your P2W as the 3 girls are stated to be 10 in their MAL pages. |

| Quick question, I'm joining the challenge a little late, but I have watched shows prior to today in 2019, however there's also this rule: -- If the last anime you completed for Novice has a finish date of January 31st (on your form), then all Apprentice level items must have start dates of January 31st or later (on your form). You cannot begin watching anime for Apprentice items on January 30th. Does this mean I can only use shows I completed in 2019 for the novice section only? Also, would my challenge start date be the day I actively watch something for the challenge or the day I started the first anime I'm using? |

Every anime that you use for this challenge, be it for Novice or later sections, must be started (and finished) in 2019. Anything that is started before January 1 2019, will be unusable for it, except for the only item that can be completed with an anime started prior to 2019. Which is the on-hold item in Apprentice. Your challenge start date is the day you start watching your first anime for this challenge. Even if that means you only watched one episode that day. |
Kozmology said: Does this mean I can only use shows I completed in 2019 for the novice section only? Also, would my challenge start date be the day I actively watch something for the challenge or the day I started the first anime I'm using? 1) Not necessarily ; anything you started watching after the 20 items you're using for Novice can be used for Apprentice (and so on). There may be too much overlap for any anime to be usable this way, but maybe a few still fit. 2) The start date of the first anime you're using. |
| Stupid question, but is K-On considered a one word title? Planning on using it for: (Ap.33) Watch an anime that has a one-word title |
| Any recommendations for "Watch an anime with 35 or more episodes that are each 15 minutes or less"? I've already watched Saiki Kusuo and Agressive Retsuko but those are the only ones that come to mind :( |
