Is this review: https://myanimelist.net/reviews.php?id=353539 valid for "(P.21) Watch an anime with an episode duration of 16 minutes or more that was reviewed the day you started"? I couldn't read it because it says it has spoilers.

About G.20, the anime I chose was Spice and Wolf which was among the Critics anime when I started it but a few weeks after that (and before I finished it), it got removed. Does my entry still count or what do I do? ^^'

While I'm at it, can I get some recommendations for G.21? Thank you.

It looks like it was removed on July 23, and as you started watching it before that date it will be considered valid. Please add that link as proof so that we have it handy for inspection.

The review was made today and the anime duration qualifies, so yes it would be valid.

(P.06) Watch an anime where the same voice actor is credited under at least two different characters


Would the movie Paprika work for this? The characters would be Paprika and Atsuko Chiba, both voiced by Megumi Hayashibara.
The two characters are shown separately on the MAL page, but Paprika is actually an alter ego of Atsuko Chiba. Would it still work even though they’re technically the same person?

They are listed as two separate characters on MAL, so that would be valid ^^

Sorry but I have another question.. ^ ^''

This is for (S.23) Watch an anime that another participant has completed for this challenge
[Username:  | Their Item Number:   | Post Link:  ]


I am confused by what they mean by Their Item Number.

So let's say a user is in the Silver Medalist category. They completed (S.06). Would I have to state all that like this? ---> Their Item Number: Silver Medalist - (S.06)

Not their post number, right?

So, I was wondering, I want to watch Michiko to Hatchin to (S.30) Watch an anime with a human main character that is not Japanese. Anidb says Michiko Malandro and Hana Morenos, the main characters, are Brazilians, but since they have a japanese first names I was wondering if they weren't half japanese, and since I didn't watch the anime yet, I don't know, so, can someone answer me if they're half japanese or not/if it count for S30 or not? I'm not sure if the director just didn't know many brazilian names since mostly characters doesn't have brazilian names or if she was thinking of them as half japaneses anyway

Your doubt is correct, looks like AniDB isn't right here. This anime takes place in a fictional setting (the country Diamandra is only based on Brazil), so neither of the main characters would be valid for S.30.

Almost certainly not, unfortunately. But you can just make a new sign-up post. You'll have to fill in everything again, but none of your actual progress is lost, since you can use anything you've watched in 2020.

Would Retsuko count as a non-humanoid character as per Gold 28 - Watch an anime with a non-humanoid main character. She's definitely anthropomorphized, but the rules say that Monokuma would be valid and their character designs are pretty similar
If I had a nickel for every anime that began airing on October 9th 2022 that started with a B and ended in "ock", I would have two nickels.
That's not a lot, but it's funny that it happened twice.

I started the AWC at the start of this year and watched Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu - Memory Snow back in February to complete challenge B.17. At the time I completed this, the anime had both the Psychological and Thriller tags as can be seen here on the Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20190703032300/https://myanimelist.net/anime/36286. Unluckily to me, the genres have since been removed from the page leaving only Fantasy and Drama as its genres which means its no longer eligible to complete the challenge. Since I originally completed B.17, I've gone through and completed through Diamond Medalist (though I have not submitted yet) and having to rework B.17 would require me to go through and redo many other challenges since the medals don't allow us to use anime before the previous medal was completed. Is it acceptable for me to use Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu - Memory Snow to complete B.17 in this circumstance?

P.05 Watch an anime with a main character that has 2 or more Japanese voice actors listed — state and link the character; can be a Japanese voice actor and/or actress


Does the anime need to list the character to have more than 1 JP VA on the anime page or is it okay if the anime page only list one but on the character page it has 2 or more JP VA?
Example: Bruce Wayne has 3 JP VA but in Batman Ninja he only has 1 JP VA

The character just has to have two Japanese voice actors on their character page, so in that example Bruce Wayne would be valid.
