| Hi sorry if this is a stupid question, but for item D3, there are no anime that started airing Jan. 19, 2019, to my knowledge. Does anyone know of one or have any idea of what I should do next? |

See here for detailed explanations that give this type of precisions. |

| Hello! I’m contemplating going for taskmaster and I wanted to make sure - will it be okay to complete two entries on the same day, or should I avoid doing it? If that’s possible, should I provide screenshots? |

| For challange D6, can i use the series from the same franchise as D5? Also, can i use animes listed as 2 different seasons of the same series on mal for D6 and D7? -Example: D5 (aka alternative setting): Fate/Stay Night UBW, D6 (anime with sequal): Fate/Zero 1st season, D7 (aka sequal of D6):Fate/Zero 2nd season. |
Reef7 said: Yes, anime for those items can be from the same franchise as long as they have separate entries in MAL database.For challange D6, can i use the series from the same franchise as D5?

HELP! red_wolf said: Yes, it's impossible to do this item with degenerate restriction.Hey, so for the Rogue quest, item G8 says to watch an anime with a difference of at least 100 between the anime's ranking and popularity, I was going to attempt to do the degenerate restriction with this one, and only just noticed that all hentais on MAL are N/A ranked. Does this meaning its simply impossible to do with the Degenerate restriction, or does this follow the exception rule? |

| Seeing how the new tagging system was implemented, some of romance tags were replaced with romantic subtext. Would that tag count toward the enchanter restriction? If I had an entry done before it was changed, would that still count? Kinda annoying if I'd have to find something else to replace that entry :/ |

If I had an entry done before it was changed, would that still count? Kinda annoying if I'd have to find something else to replace that entry :/ Piggybacking on this, how will genres/themes that get altogether removed from a specific entry be handled? Given how many challenge items and quest restrictions are genre/theme-oriented it's likely to come up. Can we provide screenshots to prove our entries had the correct genres/themes at the time of watching or does only the state of affairs when we turn our challenges in matter? Or perhaps some third option? EDIT: I4 is the challenge item I'm most worried about. Many people (myself included) have probably picked an entry with Romance and Slice of Life but the two are supposedly incompatible by MAL's new definitions. |

Yeah, it’s turning out to be such a troublesome change for this challenge :/ Like, just having the change in the name of the demons tag to mythology makes the title of the restriction (exorcist) less relevant. I assume it won’t be the only problem… |

| I have a question, I have the (bad) habit, of starting a lot of anime, watching 1 or 2 episodes just to see what they are about and then just.. putting them on-hold for years until I decide to actually watch them. Are all of these anime disqualified from my challenge since I started them before 2022? Or are they allowed if I 're-start' them, which I would do anyway since I don't remember the context from first 2 episodes for most of these anyway. Wanted to use Versailles no Bara for E6 but I have 2 episodes watched / on-hold .. |

Ultrapyro said: If the item specify a type, anime must be of that type regardless of the restriction used.Hi AWC Staff, thanks for setting up the challenge! Have 1 question for clarification: if i use the "Watcher" restriction (TV-type anime only) for Quest A, this would mean I only need TV-type anime for A1, and A6 - A9 (since A2 - A5 specify a different type), right? Or would "Watcher" be invalid for use on Quest A? Have you read How to Participate in the 2022 RPG Adventure! ? This is mentioned in the exceptions for type-based restrictions: For example, if you are attempting Quest A with the TV Restriction, then item A2 must still be completed using an OVA, since it specifically states "Watch an OVA". |

mozgow said: Any update? I'm not far away from submitting (70/75 shows completed) and those include Quest I which is all about genre tags. Most of them didn't change, but there's one item I used a genre no longer existing (Police -> Detective). Still not too late to replace it, but I want to submit ASAP due to real world planning.@eirian_j @SleepingBear We're working on how to handle this situation.

| For O2 (Watch an anime featured in an active 2022 AWC participant's forum avatar or signature) does the avatar/signature have to be accurate on the same day as I start the anime? For example. If I took a screenshot of someone's avatar in February, they've changed it into a different anime in March, and I only started the first screenshotted anime in April - Would there be an issue? |

| I recently used Haikyuu!! vs. "Akaten" for G5 - an anime more than 16 minutes with a popularity of 701 or less, if I'm not mistaken. However, I did take note of the actual popularity when I started, only when I completed it. That said, since it's a 20 minute OVA, does it make much of a difference? |
"Molly Ringwald" out right now - check my Linktree!  |

| Is there an "easy" way to find anime with Alternative Setting or Alternativ Version for D5? I've been trying to reduce my PTW list a bit this year and usually it's not that difficult to find something even with self imposed challenges for those extra titles. But this one is kinda painful. I might have to drop a challenge to actually complete it but first I want to be absolutely sure I checked thoroughly. I was just hoping there was a better way than clicking through 400 completed entries and checking each one. I can't even properly filter my own list by categories to limit it a little bit... Now that I think about it the same kind of applies to D6 and D7 but for those two I already have something in mind that probably fits my criteria. The Alternativ thing is more restrictive than I expected though. |

Do you have a specific restriction on this quest? If not, you can probably watch the first Ajin movie since the movies are listed as alternative version to the series and it’s pretty short comparing to a tv type anime. I chose a restriction in my case, so I ended up going through my anime+ in that certain tag to see if there’s one I can use :/ |

Duration-Based Restrictions Please allow me to double check by paraphrasing the restriction requirement. Armored means that all shows in a quest (minus the EXCEPTIONS) have >= 20 mins runtime. Single episode OVA and specials, movies, and TV are all allowed, as long as the minimum runtime is met. Or put more sloppily: No shorts. Correct?Armored - Complete an entire quest using anime whose episodes are each 20 minutes or more in length. Most of the items that specify a different duration than your desired restriction must be completed with your desired restriction. For example, you decide to use item K4 "Watch an anime with 50 or less favorites on MAL and an episode duration of 16 minutes or more"; if you attempt Armored, the anime would need to have less than 50 favorites and an episode duration of 20 minutes or more. EXCEPTIONS: For items A4-A5, B1-B5, and L3-L4 you must use the duration stated in the item, regardless of your restriction. |

| Hi, can someone give me a few examples of what anime I can use for R6 (Watch an anime where the same Voice Actor is credited under at least two different characters)? I'm having trouble finding anime that fit this challenge. |

MoonPhos said: Hi, can someone give me a few examples of what anime I can use for R6 (Watch an anime where the same Voice Actor is credited under at least two different characters)? I'm having trouble finding anime that fit this challenge. Sure ; the easiest way to find one of those it to comb through a popular VA's page, and see if the same show comes up twice. So, for example : - Miyuki Sawashiro as both Ririka & Kirari Momobami in https://myanimelist.net/anime/34933/Kakegurui (and its sequel). - Yui Makino as both Lapis & Cui Ling in https://myanimelist.net/anime/1691/Kaze_no_Stigma - Tomokazu Sugita as both Youhei & Kouhei Nikaido in https://myanimelist.net/anime/36028/Golden_Kamuy - Aoi Yuuki as both Boogiepop and Touka Miyashita in https://myanimelist.net/anime/37451/Boogiepop_wa_Warawanai_2019 (or, if you want to go old school, Kaori Shimizu for the same characters in the 2000 version) - Aki Toyosaki as both Justine & Caroline in https://myanimelist.net/anime/36023/Persona_5_the_Animation (and its sequel specials) - Yuu Kobayashi as three different characters (Setsuko Furoyanagi, Sanjusangen Hashiri-tai & "Office Lady") in https://myanimelist.net/anime/31540/Sekkou_Boys |
| Hello there, would Natsuyuki Rendezvous be valid for this item "(Q1) Watch an anime with at least 3 human adults (18 or older) as main characters" since there is a ghost amongst the 3 mains? |
