EASY ― 0.75 POINTS | MEDIUM ― 1.50 POINTS | HARD ― 2.25 POINTS | CONQUERED ― 3 POINTS
     The idea of this challenge is to explore the variety of symbols (things other than regular letters and numbers) often used in anime titles here on MAL.


  • Difficulties:
    Easy: 20 items in total (1 series max. per symbol)
    Medium: 40 items in total (2 series max. per symbol)
    Hard: 60 items in total (3 series max. per symbol)
    Conquered: 80 items in total (4 series max. per symbol)
     — There are extra symbols, you only need to do those required by your difficulty.

  • This challenge can be completed twice (x2) for each difficulty.
     — To attempt this, you have to complete all difficulties (four separate attempts) once.
     — Your second attempt has to be in a new post, with new entries.
     — You must not add anything to your first try (previous post) after completed.
     — More information can be found here.


  • Previously completed series aren't allowed. Neither is re-watching.
     — Series previously started, but not finished, may be used.
     — Airing can be used, but you must complete the series, so you can only turn-in the challenge after the series has finished airing.

  • Any type is allowed, but must be equal to or longer than 15 minutes (total).
     — Unless otherwise stated.

  • Your challenge "Starting Date" is the day you post.
     — Remember that it's required to add the start and end dates to any anime you use for our challenges.

  • You cannot use the same entry more than once across all difficulties.

  • Please note that to receive points for a completed challenge, you must turn it in on the current "Challenges Turn-Ins" thread.
     — A form that has to be followed will be provided there.


    ABOUT THE SYMBOLS:

  • To make it easier on everyone, use anime listed in our Hall of Fame.

  • For the purposes of this challenge, a Non-Alphanumeric symbol will be anything other than:
     — Regular letters: A to Z
     — Numbers: 0 to 9
     — Spaces

  • Letters with accents or intonation marks are valid. For example:
     — Accents: ó, ò, ô, ǒ, ő, ȍ
     — Dots: ȯ (except the letter i, j), ö
     — Curves: ŏ, ȏ, õ

  • You may use any of the available symbols on the HoF checklist up to the allowed amount for your difficulty:
     — For Easy only: 1 series max. per symbol.
     — For Medium only: 2 series max. per symbol.
     — For Hard only: 3 series max. per symbol.
     — For Conquered only: 4 series max. per symbol.

  • There is no limit in the amount of symbols you can use, but you will need the total amount of series required by your difficulty.
     — E.g. for Medium, you may do 40 different symbols, 20 symbols twice or a combination of sorts.


  • This challenge is available in our Hall of Fame as a checklist that will help you complete it.
     — You will need to have turned-in at least once (any challenge) to appear listed. Alternatively, you may log in via MAL.
     — Check if you are in the HoF database here.

Your best! my best! That's how we're living
So failure's no big deal after all!
Fortune and happiness go to those who smile!
So send those negative feelings flying~!
Let the flower of life bloom! With everything we've got~
