It should give you the exact date you last watched an episode. Thank you but.. what do I do if I don't have any anime I haven't finished or am still watching from before July 1st? Is this point just taken away? |

| Would Heaven's Design Team that's currently airing, count as having a character who is a professional in their field? Not sure how to describe them; "designers" are all supporting, and the mains aren't really secretaries but they do handle communication between parties How they are paid (if at all) isn't addressed https://myanimelist.net/anime/41762 Edit: also while I'm here, should I include the anime in the badges I have in my signature in the field for "forum set" anime when signing up? |

If it meets the requirements even after watching some episodes it's safe to screenshot. If the popularity is lower/higher now I'm afraid you'd have to watch something else and take a screenshot of that other anime. |

| Hi! Quick question: For #115, (115) Watch a listed anime featuring a character with two different eye colors (also known as heterochromia), what if you find a series not on the list that has a character with two different eye colors? Can you still use it if the character isn't on Anime Planet's list but has a MAL entry? I accidentally watched Kyoshin to Hyouka no Shiro thinking it fit a different box for me but didn't. However, after seeing the last episode, Shirou Amakusa was introduced and he has two different eye colors. I realized the series ended in December 2020 and maybe that's possibly why it's not on the Anime Planet list. Therefore, I was wondering if I could please use this character for my #115 box even though he's not listed on Anime Planet. |

| A few questions related to screenshots: 1. Should *all* the screenshots I take as proofs for various challenges be wide enough to also grab my username? For example I took this for some stats showing more PTW members than completed, with the show's title visible but no username: Is that good enough to use or do I have to take new screenshots with my username visible too? 2. Some challenges have a screenshot field (for proof) others don't. How do I tell where a challenge requires a screenshot be provided vs it's suggested to have one at hand in case things change between sign-up and turn-in (for example for challenge #113 if the difference is over 30k users on a 2000s anime) 3. (this is more semantics) For challenges that have an episode length constraint, for example: "(48) Watch an anime with an episode duration of 6 minutes or more and less than 500 completed members" Are movies or single-episode OVAs/Specials etc permitted if they're longer than 6 minutes? |

RulenneClarissa said: Yes, all screenshots from MAL must include your username. So your example won't be considered valid.1.

For example I took this for some stats showing more PTW members than completed, with the show's title visible but no username: Is that good enough to use or do I have to take new screenshots with my username visible too? If the stat you want to screenshot is not visible at the same time as your username, there are some browser extensions to make full-page screenshots (it will look like this). RulenneClarissa said: You should wage it based on how likely (or unlikely) it is that the stat required by the item will change in the future, thus making the anime invalid. 2.

| For the "Watch an anime with more users in the "Plan-to-Watch" stat than the "Completed" stat that finished airing before you started it" challenge, I forgot to record the PtW vs. Completed numbers when I finished the series, but about 2 weeks later it is still the case that PtW > Completed users. can I just record the most recent numbers? |

For number 100 it asks "Finish an anime you put on-hold or dropped on or before July 1, 2020 that has two or more episodes and an episode duration of 16 minutes or more."

To find a valid anime for the item, you must have dropped or put an anime on-hold before that specified date. If you have, first go to an anime's "Edit" page, and then click on "History" that appears beside the episode count. All the information that you need should be there.  |

| Thank you for all the help earlier! I have some more questions in the process of fixing issues noted earlier: 1. For item #106, would the MC from Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka qualify even though she was originally a human but reborn as a spider to start the show? On a related note, would Rimuru from Tensura be excluded due to their transformation ability? 2. For item #119, I want to use Olympia Kyklos which has 20+ endings. Do I have to list off every individual OP/ED, or is it sufficient to either A: list off the first 5, showing there's at least that many or B: have a screenshot of the whole lot on its MAL page 3. Similar question to above, but for #110, is linking the character page for the anime sufficient or should each MC and support be listed? In case of a total of more than 10 characters. 4. For challenges based on themes or tags on anidb/anime-planet (glasses, mafia, CGI, etc), should I also link the respective anime/character page on the other site?
