SevenStarCoffin said: Neither really answers my question. What I meant was, for example. I watched Toaru Majutsu no Index last year. If I watch it again now, can it be counted? Or does it have to be anime I've never seen before? As far as I know, re-watching an entire anime for the sake of the challenge is not really encouraged. The purpose of the challenges is to watch new anime that participants have never seen before. Simple as that. :) Only exception to this is item #107 "Finish an on-hold or dropped anime". Whichever anime the participant has seen before that they left unfinished, now's their chance to finish that anime if they decide to pick #107 for their list of challenges. |

SevenStarCoffin said: 1) Can re-watches I.e. anime I watched before the competition start date and then watched again after be counted as items on the list? Yes, as long as you prove you've previously watched it and then re-watched it. If you look at my challenge entry (link in my signature) and search for "Eureka Seven", you'll see a screenshot of what I mean. I was told to provide this information during last year's challenge, and it was accepted. Also, one of the mods for the challenge (I can't remember who now lol) is re-watching some series for their entries too. Phlippy said: 108. Watch an anime with 6 or more main characters with natural hair color - it's either black, brown, blonde, red, white or gray What about Free!: Take Your Marks for this one? I'm not sure if Nitori's hair would count as gray or if it's more of a silver and if Momo's counts as red or if it's more orange. I'd say Momo is a redhead and Nitori's hair is gray. |

FrozenRoy said: I was considering joining the challenge and I have a question that does not seem to be answered in the FAQ or the initial post. For the challenge... 107. Finish an on-hold or dropped anime ...Is it okay if you do not list a specific date but instead a general date for when you began the anime? I was thinking of watching Simoun or Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World. However, I started both of them many years ago (long before I even knew MAL existed), and I have no idea the exact date that I started them. Is it fine to put, say, just "2008" or whatnot for this? Or is there another option for if I wished to do this? If you can't prove the previous watched dates, I suggest you change the item for another of the same tier. Alternatively you can try checking the episode history for the title and see if there's a valid date there. If you don't know how to check your episode history for the anime, try the following SevenStarCoffin said: 1) Can re-watches I.e. anime I watched before the competition start date and then watched again after be counted as items on the list? I know you got your answer already, but let me paste in case someone else also ask again While its not against the rules, re-watching is not something I support. The main point of the challenge is to explore and watch new anime. If, even then, you decide to re-watch a title you will need to update the dates accordingly on your anime list to reflect the dates in which the title was watched during the year.

Watch an anime which began airing the same day you joined MAL Is there another way to search for this than clicking through every series ever? I still haven't found any that started on a 16th 89. Watch an anime adapted from a Digital Manga Are there really just 9 anime available for this challenge? lol 106. Watch the Top anime recommended to your Favorite Anime Even tho Ajin is only the Top 4 recommended show to Parasyte, I can still use it since I already watched the other 3, right? @Phlippy Please, don't post this in the sign up thread |
| @Phlippy #81. Go to seasonal page (here) and search for "16,". Most of the matches will be for completed members or year, but some will be for the day. On the current season page I have already found one that aired on the 16th (Wonder Gravity: Pino To Juuryoku Tsukai). If you look on other season's pages you should find something better than this. #89. Yes, there are only 9 anime for this item. #106. It doesn't have to be your top 1 favourite anime. You can use any listed on your profile page. |

| Can I use Agumon for number 97, Watch an with a non-humanoid main character? Also, I just noticed that I seem to have messed up my Initial Post Number, I have it as 838 which is the same as the user that posted before me. From what I gathered, I'm the one who made a mistake (odds are the other user posted while I was editing my entry form) and it should be number 839, which would fit. Should I change it to 839? |

Mellowmancer said: For (21) Watch an anime with a main character that is a professional in their field do any of these count? Attack on Titan Gintama Hoozuki no Reitetsu Watch an anime with a main character that is a professional in their field -state the character and profession; they get paid for their services, like a lawyer, teacher, doctor and so on. thats the requirement for 21 it so lets say for example; the mc from mob psycho 100 (arataka) hes a psychic and his clients pay him shows like shirobako or new game are easy to tell cause anime creation/video game creation are their jobs respectively and its how they maintain their livelihoods |

The non-humanoid will depend on the series you plan to use. As for the IPN, some users share the same one. If you can say for sure it was a mistake and your original one was 839, then sure, feel free to change it. |
