The Daily Lives of Highschool Easter Bunnies

1. Choose a route: Easy or Hard.
If you're new to the event or do not have a lot of time, do the Easy route. The hunting skills you learn during the Easy route will help you tackle the Hard route (later or next year).

2. Solve the hints to find the anime/manga/character entry.
We are not expecting you to have seen/read all these anime/manga! Searching a few keywords along with "anime" or "manga" will bring the entry up in Google and/or the MAL search box.

Easy route: The keywords you need to search will usually be given to you directly in the hint. The difficulty will be selecting the right keywords.
Hard route: The keywords will often not be given directly. Answers to the hint or oddities within the hint may be the keywords you need to search.

Reminders/Tips

• Use incognito mode to improve search results.
  
• If you aren't getting any relevant results on Google with your current search terms, try rearranging the word order!
  　 　 　Attempt #1: libraries at war anime
  　 　 　Attempt #2: wars in libraries anime
  　 　 　Attempt #3: library war manga
  　 　 　...etc.
  
• Remember the theme! If the hint is leading to an entry that's not related to teachers, classrooms, and/or schools, then you are most likely in the wrong place.
  
• Remember the hint! Just because an anime appears in your search result does not mean that the anime relates to the hint. Please think about whether it makes sense or not.
  
• Just being a student is not part of the theme. There must be a memorable teacher and/or the story's setting is predominantly in a classroom for the entry to count.

The first hint is given to you at the top of this thread.

3. Find the chick/egg and letter in the Pictures of the correct anime/manga/character entry.
Easy route: You will be looking for letters inside a chick outline, like on the Gudetama picture.
Hard route: You will be looking for letters inside an egg outline, like the Toshokan Sensou picture.

Make sure you write the letter down!

The images with the chick/egg will always appear on the last picture of the image gallery in a database page: Anime, Manga, Light Novel, Character. Chicks/Eggs will never be placed on second seasons or spin-off OVAs or mini-character anime. They will always be on a main entry OR on the character IF the hint relates specifically to that character.



4. Find the next hint in the same anime/manga/character page you found the chick/egg.
Hints will be visible on one of the tabs of the entry that you found the chick/egg, excluding: Stats, Reviews, Recommendations, Interest Stacks, Featured, MAL x Japan.

Clickable hints should be clicked!

Hints will not be inside other related database entries unless the relation/link text itself is a clue. Look for anything unusual.

• If you're on an anime page, the hint will not be inside a character/people/manga entry, unless the link title/picture itself is weird.
  
• If you're on a character page, the hint will not be inside the anime/etc. entry, unless the link on the character page is weird.
  
• Spoilers on a database entry do not need to be opened, unless the spoiler button itself is weird.

Sometimes Easter words (e.g. egg, rabbit, bunny, usagi...) or Story-Themed words (e.g. teacher, classroom, school, ...) will be included to help you see what's a hint, and not legit info.




5. After collecting all the letters, unscramble them to get the hint for the final anime/manga/character entry!
You will need both the scrambled and unscrambled phrase for the Google form, so don't delete it!

There are tools online that can help you unscramble phrases. Pro tip: We usually include an Easter or Story-related word in the final hint.


Finally, doing the hunt will look something like this...
