I'm sorry, I cant figure out how to search within just this thread for my answer, if it has already been discussed. For Advanced #18, Anime with Season in title, can it be an alternate title? Does K-On Season 2 work, or not because the main title is K-On!!

No
Alternative titles are NOT allowed

The "season" part has to be in the main title

From your PTW I recommend using https://myanimelist.net/anime/36431/One_Room_2nd_Season (be sure to check your personal restrictions (if you stated any) align with this anime before you use it)

Also, may I request some recommendations for (I.21) Watch an anime with 4 episodes or more recommended to you by a challenge team member from @Yuki-Chan276 and/or @bigdud24 ?

If you're talking about the blonde girl, then Bakemonogatari is fine. She appears in pretty much every Monogatari season anyway. If we're being super technical, then that particular pic is taken from Tsukimonogatari.

1) You go to the anime page.

2) Below the image there should be "edit status"

3) You click on "edit details"

4) A window called "edit anime" should pop up.

5) Next to "episodes watched", there should be an option called "history"

6) There you can view when you added it to your list.

If no history is added, you'll have to pick another anime.
If no anime has any history, I advise to choose a different item.

Well, it says "Place of Origin" which isn't exactly the same thing as nationality. But if it counts then it's all good, thanks.

Forum set = your avatar and signature (that gif below your message)
The characters are from a series called "Kyoukai no Kanata"

In the AWC signup form, below "restriction", there is a place for "Anime in Forum Set:"
There, you have to put "Kyoukai no Kanata".

If you want to, I could take a screenshot if that helps clarifying for you.

Amusingly, I noticed that both of our sign-up forms appear on the same page while I was looking for a good anime for Ap.30. I would've ended up watching Plastic Neesan if I hadn't seen that it was still in your PTW list.

Hello, sorry if it's a stupid question, but: I was about to turn in my form when I realized the person below me changed their username (and I used their user for item I.22). In the explanation list it says that I need to "change this accordingly", but I don't have any other anime that I watched at the time to put there or that fit with the other intermediate items.

Should I watch an anime for it now and then submit it? But wouldn't it interfere with the rule that I should've only started advanced after completing intermediate?

Should I turn in my form, then let it be revised and seen as wrong and then be asked to fix it? @@ I'm pretty confused. Thanks in advance!

First a question, do you have a screenshot with their old username?

If you do, add it and it might be validated.

If not, you best let it be invalidated, and then watch an anime for that item, as we will let you do that without it interfering with the other tiers.
Watching an anime now would invalidate the tiers below that item.

Hope this helps.

Hello! Ok, so I finished this year's AWC (or so I thought) and I wanted to try the Angelic title so I was cross-checking the items. I found out that I made a mistake for I.18. I tried to see if I could swap titles with another item for the same level but it doesn't seem to match. Funnily enough, it affects I.02 which means that I will need to change 2 anime titles over there :')

My question is, would it be valid to watch something new, now? Or do I just have to submit it and have someone ask me to fix it and give up on the Angelic title? :'(


Did you already turn in? If so, you will need to let it stay for now. If you haven't yet, it is worth it. But only if it is within the dates for that tier. Are you doing advanced as well?


I haven't turned it in yet. I finished up until the Expert level; Expert included. But I don't have something within those dates that I can add. Guess I will watch something new, add a note and hope!

If you do that everything after that item will be invalid, so it is best you leave it, turn in and then get only that item invalidated (if there are no others found). When that happens you are allowed to watch a new anime for that item, without invalidating higher tiers.
