I don't think there's any specific rule for that, but I'd say it's easier if you leave it green to signal that it's on-going, but write the day you submit your form as the Finished date. If you want to, you could also write which was the last chapter you read, to make it easier to tell if you're up-to-date. |

(48) Read a manga with a protagonist with an unnatural hair color I've used Billionaire Girl for this. The main story has 17 chapters, while another 3 are special short stories at the end of each volume. They weren't translated in neither English nor Spanish (my first language). Does that count as finishing the item? Since I'll add it to my list as On-Hold with 17 chapters read. |

| I have a question about a situation I've ended up in and hopefully I can explain it well enough to get an answer. For one of the items I've been reading Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu (Descending Stories) using the English print release. The release date of the final printed volume has been pushed back to after the end of the challenge, however the ebook version released today. My question is do I have to read the ebook to properly finish my challenge or can it be considered ongoing, as the format I was reading is technically incomplete right now? I preordered the book months ago and would rather not buy it twice, but if I absolutely need to buy the ebook I will. Sorry for the length, I just wanted to clarify since the end of the challenge period is near. |

| Can I use 21st Century boys for this challenge? "Read an award-winning manga" The additional info on the MAL page lists the following 20th Century Boys and 21st Century Boys' combined storyline won the Grand Prize at the 37th Japan Cartoonist Awards on May 9, 2008. I've used the first series (20th century) as a best-selling series to read, and was wondering if the collective award for the duo was enough to warrant the use of the epilogue (21st century) for the award-winning challenge item. If not, I have a few other titles to read for the challenge, though this would make for a neat little combo. |

Can't decide between Bokurano and Kanojo wo Mamoru 51 no Houhou :0 Glad you like them! :D I personally prefer Bokurano, but Kanojo wo Mamoru 51 no Houhou is also great, the first is more sci-fi psychological while the second is more drama with some good moments. |
| Question: I finished Eclair for the short stories manga challenge entry. I bought the book and it has 16 chapters. On MAL it says it's ongoing but made in 2016. Is this manga finished or is there more? |
| Notice: I read most manga in Japanese now so I'm not sure where you can read in English. Sorry in advance. |
| There is more, but it isn't translated and baka updates has the official English translation as completed. It seems to be an ongoing series of anthologies each with similar names (Eclair, Eclair Blanche, Eclair Bleue, Eclair Rogue) but it also seems like Yen Press will not be translating everything post the original volume - but that explains why MAL has it listed as ongoing. For challenge purposes, I'd consider it completed/caught up with current translated chapter if you submitted it. |
| @MRC_mod Challenges state "Read" so i dont need to complete the manga before submitting ? since all of the Manga i read are physical, i don't read online unless its not been released as physical copy.. |

Daisy-Sensei said: @MRC_mod Challenges state "Read" so i dont need to complete the manga before submitting ? since all of the Manga i read are physical, i don't read online unless its not been released as physical copy.. You have to complete it up to whatever's released in the medium you chose. If you're using physical manga, and the manga is completely translated, you have to finish it, that means buying it completely, instead of just buying the first two volumes and reading them. You basically have to read everything available. In this case, read = complete, unless it's on-going. "The manga you choose to use for the challenge must be read in its entirety during the challenge period." |
| Can anyone rec a light novel to read. It's like my last challenge and I know next to nothing about them or the community. Maybe something short (if that even exists) since there is 5 days left to finish up. Thanks in advance ;; this challenge is starting to give me anxiety lol. |

Just in case you don't know, the light novel item can be completed with reading only 1 volume. Still, it can be a little tight for time. I liked the first volume of the Zaregoto Series (I think this one's a bit episodic), there's also Re:Zero, and Youjo Senki. Although I'm not familiar as to where to read them. :P |

| 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. |

It usually starts around January 6th, but it may start a little later next year. There's not a final date at the moment, as far as I know. Even then, everything you read from January 1st will be valid for the challenge, so you can read some stuff you're interested in and chances are you're going to be able to fit that in the challenge. We look forward to your participation next year. :) |

I had a very busy year so I haven't had the chance to read much but I am very much looking forward to the new challenge. It's always nice to be challenged to read something out of ones comfort zone. It really enriches ones manga experience, in my opinion. I will definitely keep on reading in that case. |

| About the turn-in post. I submitted it within the challenge period. But I corrected a spelling error r it. (just a spelling mistake) Will it still work? |
