| @AWC_mod Remember that "you only have to watch the episodes that have been translated" rule from last year? I put "Be-Bop Highschool" on my list as an anime with a live action adaption, but I just realized that while it comes up on streaming sites just fine they only have the first 4 episodes subbed. Since I see very little chance of the remaining 3 episodes being subbed by the end of 2017 would this be acceptable or should I just pick another title? |

| So I was looking through the list and I don't know what to do for these in particular that fulfills the requirement if I only want to have a shot at 'Master of TV Series': 62. Watching an anime that hasn't been reviewed <- This one in particular I have no idea how I'm going to find it, other than scrolling through stats pages all day 36. An anime with more Plan to Watch than Completed And while at it, I'm struggling to find stuff for these so if anyone could help me I'd appreciate it because I'm probably going to run into the dark zone of anime but I want to try to maintain my sanity (The shorter the better preferably): Aired from 1917-1989 (#9-#11) Score below a 6 (#22) Less than 5,000 completed members (#23) |

Sandrean said: 42 - There are two types of anime that fit this requirement: Anime that aren't type TV and anime that don't have English subtitles. There are some TV anime that have English subs without reviews, but those are like flipping a coin and it landing on its side. This anime actually does fit (ie has no reviews, is type TV, and has subs) if you're willing to watch a 36 episode Chinese magical girl anime with a 6.12 average.So I was looking through the list and I don't know what to do for these in particular that fulfills the requirement if I only want to have a shot at 'Master of TV Series': 42. Watching an anime that hasn't been reviewed <- This one in particular I have no idea how I'm going to find it, other than scrolling through stats pages all day 24. An anime with more Plan to Watch than Completed And while at it, I'm struggling to find stuff for these so if anyone could help me I'd appreciate it because I'm probably going to run into the dark zone of anime but I want to try to maintain my sanity (The shorter the better preferably): Aired from 1917-1989 (#9-#11) Score below a 6 (#22) Less than 5,000 completed members (#23) 24 - Elitist anime (LoGH, Tatami Galaxy, Aria the Animation, ect), anime that finished airing recently especially long runners (Aikatsu and World Trigger are two big ones. Look through last season's anime and you might find a couple shorter ones), and recently subbed stuff like Ore-sama Kingdom (ptw:completed is literally a 5:1 ratio. This is an OVA, though, so it won't count). If you can ninja it movies have very low completed counts compared to PTWs until the DVDs are released and all the Westerners are able to watch them. 9/11 - Used advanced search to search by air date. The really old ones don't need subs. You can ask someone else for good 80s series. Just remember that way back in the day anime didn't even air on TV so you'll have to use movies for some of them. 22 - Glasslip 23 - Happy Happy Clover |

Technically rewatches can count, but you should only use them as a last resort if you truly can't find anything that fits the challenge that is translated into a language you understand. You can feel free to ask here for recommendations if you have a hard time finding anime on your own.Do rewatches count? Or what if I never finished an anime but I restart it from the beginning and watch it all the way through? |

No. You need to watch anime with a score of 8.0 or more. That would be it's average score, the one showed on it's page.

So no, I don't think he qualifies. |

Like it's been said, Okabe is just a student putting together junk for kicks more than someone with a job. You could maybe argue for Kurisu though, as someone who is brought to give actual speeches on scientific theory. She might pass as someone who gets paid for what they do. And one of the other cast members is technically a waitress, I guess. |
| I've officially sworn off of 2016. |
| — 11. Watch one of the 5 lowest scored anime from your favorite studio. I am quite uncertain about how this goes to work. Now, I am aware that sequels, spin-offs and whatnot are exempt, and that the titles with 'N/A' are also unavailable. I am tackling Madhouse for this (https://myanimelist.net/anime/producer/11/Madhouse?page=4), but I am having trouble finding the lowest five anime online. The lowest is actually 'Genma Taisen', which looks fairly interesting, but I cannot find it at all. Beyond this, a number of untraceable animes, sequel and specials are further up the list, and I am uncertain which ones I am able to use at all because of how many of them are nowhere to be found. Can anyone help me with this? (Don't come to me with ad-ridden, shady websites - I will not visit those) |

Kaze wo Nuke! is on youtube and it's in there as the lowest with a score at all. It doesn't look subbed but I'd just watch it raw since it's not too long. *edit* nvm, it was sorted wrong. That one has no review though so it's good for that challenge ;-) |

| In the show they allude to her life in the other world and make it sound like she's at least 100 years old or something. She's just young for a dragon. If it were me I'd choose something else for that challenge and use it for a different one (it's a great show). |
| Is Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex alright for 43. Watch an anime with a main character that is a professional in his field ? Also, any recommendation for 15. Watch an anime which began airing between 1960 and 1979 ? A short one (less than 30 episodes) would be nice. Thanks ! |

Sandrean said: The zero review challenge states that it can't have a review when you start watching it. Currently airing anime aren't allowed to have reviews, only previews, so it would be kind of cheating to use one for that challenge. There are plenty of the challenges that there are ways of getting around, but since that is likely the most difficult challenge to find anime for I don't think you would be allowed to do something like that for it.Jesshaleth said: I got my #62 by starting to watch a show as soon as it aired - no reviews if it hasn't aired yet!

| @kryhelm, maybe Steins Gate? You've rated Occultic;Nine with 7, and Steins Gate is so much better. :) Or Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin if you like parodies. If you want some movies, you could watch Paprika or Perfect Blue by Satoshi Kon. |
