Remember in elementary school when we'd write Valentine's Day cards for our friends, or maybe even for someone special~?

MALentine Mystery 💌 is a community event based around this idea. Valentine's cards are created in the spirit of one anime character giving the card to another, and then everyone guesses which anime the card belongs to.

This event was held first in 2017, and is now being re-run in 2022.
Check out the 2017 Showcase for inspiration~


Part One: Submissions
You are tasked with creating a Valentine's Card from one anime/manga character to another.
The goal is to make the card's anime and sender easy for players to guess.

The card cannot contain:
  Spoilers!
  The sender or recipient's name.
  Images of any human/speaking characters from the anime (i.e. a cat who only meows is okay).

Submit your card


Part Two: Guessing Game
Once we collect all of the cards, we will create the guessing game.

 Every player who seriously attempts to guess will receive a profile badge for participating.
 No spamming the form with nonsense >_>
 Even if you do not make a card, you can still guess!


After the game closes, we will rank the cards by:
  Most correct guesses
  Most difficult to guess
  Best card design

Creators can aim for first or last place in these rankings ;) The only prize offered is, as usual, bragging rights~


Card Submission Deadline
Sunday, Feb 13th, 12:00 PST

You must send in your valentine's card before this date!

Guessing Game Opens
Monday, Feb 14th

Once the thread is posted, you can start guessing!

For cards creator, do we have some dimensions restrictions ? I saw all kind of formats in the previous showcase

Do you want to submit a card or just play the guessing game? If it is the former, there's a link to a form in the original thread where you can submit your card. If it is the latter, you have to wait until the given date and they will most likely provide a form link (again, in the original thread) where you can submit your guesses.

Ah ok. Any idea when they'll be providing the link for the guessing game?

I'm a bit concerned about the number of cards we're going to get :'D But sure! In the event that you have the same ideas that other people did, I'll pick the one that doesn't have overlap or the one I think will be guessed correctly more, if you don't mind.

I hope we can just simply post guesses in the comments then as I can't quite access the forms (No Google Account)

@Kineta UPDATE: Just sent a card to Cupid-Nyan like last time, is this okay? And Happy B-Day, btw.

Remember Folks, it doesn't need to look fancy, right? All that counts is that you try. ;-3

is a talent in itself.

Card creation in progress,
Poor guessing brain... Loading...

Well now I have something to look forward to on 14th Feb.

Edit: I tried to make a card. Submitted the google form and then remembered that the card cannot have any speaking characters. F.

Now the card is bound to be rejected so I'll just show my pathetic excuse for a card here xD.
