| Watch an anime which began airing the same day you joined MAL: Who thought this would be a good challenge? The 1/6 of people who signed up at the beginning of the season have an okay chance that something started airing that day, everyone else just has to pray that some movie, ona, special, or OVA started that day. Also, is this about the exact day or should I go f3 the fall season of every year until I find something that started on the 31st? |

In your case you can watch any anime that started on the 31st. So check every month of the year: October 31st, November 31st, December 31st... |

| @Yuki-Chan276, can I please get a recommendation from you for the recommendation challenge? |
| Ok question, Can I use Wakaba girl for the 4-koma thing (#14). It's only 7 minutes long, so I'm just wondering. |

| Hey! Two quick things: 1) For challenge 89 (Watch an anime adapted from a Digital Manga), are anime with "Source: Web Manga" essentially that, or is there a separate source category called "Digital Manga" instead? If that is a seperate source, is there an easy way to search for Digital Manga-adapted anime? What I'm currently using for the challenge is this, wanted to double check. http://myanimelist.net/anime/35838 2) Could use a reccomendation for challenge 27! My tastes lean towards older Mech and Sci-Fi anime, but most newer stuff works for me too! Love myself some comedy, slice of life I tend to fall off very fast if it's just mainly that alone/not a genre-combination. My Anime List, if it helps: https://myanimelist.net/animelist/DynamicDonut |

ReisukaAi said: So quick question. Do OVAs count even if they are just single episode 25 minute things? As long as the specific challenge doesn't state otherwise time or type really doesn't matter |

Love myself some comedy, slice of life I tend to fall off very fast if it's just mainly that alone/not a genre-combination. My Anime List, if it helps: https://myanimelist.net/animelist/DynamicDonut 1. Digital Manga and Web Manga are two different classifications on MAL. Normally the main difference is that Digital Manga are manga that are released through iOS/Android phone apps in Japan. While Web Manga are manga released through regular websites. Oshiete! Galko-chan is an example. Use search operators in Google to find more series that require specific words. 2. Roujin Z It's an older hilarious hard scifi direct-to-DVD film about an old man who takes a giant ass mecha out for a ride. It completely deserves the Mainichi Film Award it got. I thought it was going to be lame from the synopsis but shit had me glued to the PC it was so good. |
| Does anyone know of any anime adapted from picture books over an hour long that can be found online in full? |
protomug said: Recommendation for #27 (Watch an anime recommended to you in the challenge discussion thread)? My only pre-requisites are no ecchi, and it has to be something I can legally stream. Other than that, I think I'm fine with anything. Thanks! Boku dake ga Inai Machi (ERASED) is amazing. Short too. |
| I need an anime for this challenge: (91) Watch a completed anime adapted from a manga with a score of 6.5 or lower |

I tried some searching and honestly didn't find anything more interesting than your example, so I'm gonna give that one a shot! Thanks for the two reccomendations! That Roujin Z looks 1000% up my alley. |
protoplasm said: Oh, can it really? I assumed since it said "favourite" singular it meant my top one. Okay, well that makes it a lot simpler, I'm glad to hear that. Thanks!It can be any of the anime in your favorites, not your absolute favorite, so don't worry about that |
| 80. Watch one of the 5 lowest scored anime from your favorite studio by weighted score on Anime+ For me it's Sunrise studio. Kanzen Shouri Daiteiou counts? |

| I still have trouble completely understanding (54) Watch a completed anime scored 4 or less from another challenger who posted on your sign up page: Does this mean you have to go to a challenger's page on the same sign up page and complete and anime scored 4 or less that another challenger completed. |
 |
| Yeah. Find someone who signed up on the same page as you. Go to their Anime list. Something they score 4 or less. |

MyNamesHere said: About challenge #79 (Watch an Alternative Version, Alternative Setting or Spin-Off of something you've previously watched - state the related series if there's more than one listed (the one you previously watched)). Does this count in reverse. For example I've seen Hellsing Ultimate, so by watching Hellsing does this count? It doesn't really matter chronologically when they released as long as on the page for the anime the version you want to watch is listed as one of those things. So in this case it would work because on the page for Hellsing Ultimate, Hellsing is listed as an Alternative Version |
| Hey! Can I have a rec for item#102 (Watch an anime recommended to you by a challenge staff member) ? @SheyCroix @Conde_Mohr @jhoson14 thanks <3 Preferably TV (1 or 2 cours) or movie (and please no ecchi or the likes ... ^^") For item#60 (Watch an anime with a human main character that is not Japanese), can I use Gosick ? I've seen that the birthplace of Victorique is Sauville in France on another site. To make sure, if I use 3-gastu no Lion for an item, can I use the season 2 for something else? Thank you !! |

halom said: Read the FAQ but still didn't get the thing. You can't change difficulty or items after you posted the sign-up, right? That's not true. This year you can change both difficulty and items (you can even pick all items by hand). halom said: What about some items that can't be completed like: 106: Watch the Top anime recommended to your Favorite Anime Cause I've actually watched all the top recs for my favorites. For this item you can pick first recommendation you haven't seen yet. You can also change this item to some other. IraDeorum said: Good evening. I need help with the following items: (102) Watch an anime recommended to you by a challenge staff member Planetes Shoujo Kakumei Utena No, it doesn't count. Source must be "Book".
