EASY ― 0.75 POINTS | MEDIUM ― 1.50 POINTS | HARD ― 2.50 POINTS
     The idea of this challenge is to bring exposure to anime that aired during the 80's, considering that most people aren't prone to go out of their way to watch them.


  • Only use anime that began airing in the 1980's.
     — 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988 and 1989.
     — The series only need to have started airing on either of these years, they can have other years as ending date.


  • Difficulties:
    Easy: 15 series
    Medium: 25 series
    Hard: 35 series
     — There are extra requirements, you only need to do those required by your difficulty.
     — No second run (x2) available.


  • Previously completed series aren't allowed except for Easy difficulty the first time through.
     — Make all previously completed entries in italics.
     — Series previously started, but not finished, may be used.
     — Airing can be used, but you must complete the series, so you can only turn-in the challenge after the series has finished airing.

  • Any type is allowed, but must be equal to or longer than 15 minutes (total).

  • Your challenge "Starting Date" is the day you post.
     — Remember that it's required to add the start and end dates to any anime you use for our challenges.

  • You cannot use the same entry more than once across all difficulties.

  • Please note that to receive points for a completed challenge, you must turn it in on the current "Challenges Turn-Ins" thread.
     — A form that has to be followed will be provided there.


  • This challenge is available in our Hall of Fame as a checklist that will help you complete it.
     — You will need to have turned-in at least once (any challenge) to appear listed. Alternatively, you may log in via MAL.
     — Check if you are in the HoF database here.
     — View your challenge checklist with the following link: (replace "NOTJHIDAY" with your username)

EASY ― # POINTS | MEDIUM ― # POINTS | HARD ― # POINTS

EXPLANATION
     The idea of this challenge is to bring exposure to anime that aired during the 80's, considering that most people aren't prone to go out of their way to watch them.

  • Only use anime that began airing in the 1980's.
     — 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988 and 1989.
     — The series only need to have started airing on either of these years, they can have other years as ending date.

  • Difficulties:
    Easy: 15 items
    Medium: 25 items
    Hard: 35 items
     — There are extra requirements, you only need to do those required by your difficulty.
     — No second run (x2) available.

  • Previously completed is not allowed except for Easy difficulty the first time through.
     — Make all previously completed entries in italics.
     — Series previously started, but not finished, may be used.
     — Airing can be used, but you must complete the series, so you can only turn-in the challenge after the series has finished airing.

  • Any type is allowed, but must be equal to or longer than 15 minutes (total).

  • Start date is the day you post.

  • Cannot use the same entry more than once across all difficulties.

  • This challenge is available in our Hall of Fame as a checklist that will help you complete it.
     — You will need to have turned-in at least once (any challenge) to appear listed. Check if you are in the database here.

All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath.

Don't look at me, don't catch me.
I'm a butterfly who got lost.
I sing freely with these wings no one can see.
They're hiding in your heart.
