| Yo I'd like to request An anime recommendation for Ap.29 (Watch an anime recommended to you in the challenge discussion thread). Cheers! rika713 said: Can I use Atom The Beginning for the '(N.26) Watch an anime with a full English title' item? I mean Atom is kinda a name but kinda not ^^; atom noun "1. the smallest particle of a chemical element that can exist." I think you'll be fine |

It is PG - 13 , so i thought i check so i can be sure. It needs to be rated specifically "G - All Ages" like Aria the Animation, or "PG - Children" like Kemono Friends. "PG-13 - Teens 13 or older" is considered a different rating. Also can someone recommend anything good for (Ap.29) Watch an anime recommended to you in the challenge discussion thread ? New Game!

Is a screenshot necessary? If it's really close to that borderline (like ranked 703 or something), the challenge team may find it hard to call. Personally, I've tried using The Wayback Machine to check on a few I didn't screenshot, as you can see a web page as it was on a past date. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. If it doesn't, I would go ahead and screenshot the anime's MAL page as it is right now, and use that. It's better than nothing. The rankings do tend to shift over time, but they pretty much always shift further down. The final decision is the challenge team's to make, though. aoi-hoshi said: Hi, For this item : (N.31) Watch an anime from a random TVTropes Can I use this trope: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Tropers/Dkellis For this anime: https://myanimelist.net/anime/2369/Rental_Magica Or did I understand the item in a wrong way? Thanks. According to the rules for that entry, the Tropes page has to have an official Examples list. For an example, look at the Tropes page for School Festival. Below the main article is the list of "Examples", and one of those folders is titled "Anime & Manga". The anime you choose would need to be featured in that "Anime & Manga" example list. Since the page you linked doesn't have an actual "example list", and actually isn't even a Trope page, then it wouldn't count. |

| Does duration matter for the anime? |
| @dierubikdie Thanks for the clear explanation. |

tretij said: Does duration matter for the anime? If it's stated in the challenge explanation then yes, certain items need to have a set duration (16+ min. per episode, 16+ min. in total etc.). If it's not mentioned there than you're good with anything ^^ + if the task required a certain duration (watch an anime with 10 or more episodes that are each 15 minutes or less etc.) then you must follow the rule. (please read all explanations carefully before doing tasks and submitting the turn-in) |

Think Madoka Magica. The last letter is not standard keyboard punctuation no? E.g. when you render the URL as plain text it changes the last letter into an encoding: https://myanimelist.net/anime/572/Kaze_no_Tani_no_Nausica%C3%A4 . |

E.g. when you render the URL as plain text it changes the last letter into an encoding: https://myanimelist.net/anime/572/Kaze_no_Tani_no_Nausica%C3%A4 . From what I understand that A isn't a special character - it's an independent letter in some languages (such as Finnish) indicating a vowel sound. |

As said by @Aeradae the ä is an accented a, so it's said differently from an unaccented a. The link encoding like that doesn't make it valid immediately. Some links like e.g. Madoka's don't encode like that, but are valid. https://myanimelist.net/anime/9756/Mahou_Shoujo_Madokaβ Magica |

| Need clarification on this challenge: "Watch an anime with a full English title — has to be on the main title used here on MAL; if part of the title has words in another language it won't count; alternative titles don't count; one letter and number only titles don't count; excludes titles that uses someone's name" Does the "no names" condition apply to the name "Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt", where the names are also actual english words? |
| Hi! Is Arslan Senki (Tv) - anime's current score : 7.76 / manga score 7.74 adequate for Expert 05? Is it ok that the anime score is higher now or when starting the anime than the manga's score or should the requirement met when turning in the form? |

| I've only got 1 item left on the list so I'm checking through all the sections I've completed and noticed that some of them don't fit the criteria correctly, I.E. I completed an item in Apprentice in February but I'm gonna have to redo it from May onward. Since the rules say previous sections can't have completion dates after the next section, what would I put for the completion date? Should I just add something that says Completion Date (Revised) or just keep the original completion date? Also, I've added a little note onto each section that's been checked by me with items that could change by the time I'm done (like choosing things from a participant's list in case they drop out/delete their post), should I delete these when I turn the challenge in or just leave em there? |

Anything that doesn't fit within the completion dates of separate sections need to be redone and later sections as well. No need to put (Revised) behind the date. Just fill in the new dates that fit. Notes like that are best put in a spoiler at the end of your form. |
