Hello, I would like to participate in the challange but before I do I have a question-
Do I need to update my own profile / list with whatever I watch due to the challange? Like I need to watch a certain anime so I need to add it to my list (and update it) to make it count towards the challange? (Personal OCD question :3)

Then you should change to a different one. That's why there are more than 100 options.

For one of my tasks
(81) Watch an anime which began airing the same day you joined MAL:
I joined on Oct 23 2016, which is in Fall 2016, and there is no TV anime, ONA, OVA or special that began airing that day.(Or even the day before or the the day after)

What exactly do I do for this scenario since I can't find an anime that fits the criteria?


Its just the day you joined, in your case 23th. Air date must coincide with it, month/year doesn't matter in this item.


If you need help searching anime for this i will gladly assist ^^



I'm having a hard time doing a research to find an anime that aired on a 23rd of the month. Is there an easy way to do so??

I do not know if this is still needed, but I took the liberty of finding some for the 23rd;

Also, there is no special way of searching for this. Your only option is by looking through every season’s lineup for your specific date.

go to advanced search, put in a date, make sure to select "start date" to be shown as a column, search, then sort twice by the start date, like this (search for 23.3.2012)

I'll recommend you Tsuritama, Kino's Journey, The Secret World of Arrietty, Kids on the Slope, or House of Five Leaves

Hopefully a little bit of variety to pick from?? :)

It has to be listed under one entry on MAL.

For example, even though Boku no Hero Academia has a total of 38 episodes, it is split into separate entries for each season so it can't be used for this challenge.

I'm sorry if this was answered somewhere and I'm just too blind to find it but are we allowed to use rewatches for the challenge? For example, if I've originally watched an anime in 2015 but re-watched the entire first season this year, am I allowed to use that as an entry?

Rewatches are technically not against the rules but they are discouraged as the point of this challenge is to experience new and different anime. If you decide to rewatch something you will need to update the dates on your anime list to reflect when exactly you watched it during the challenge period

Can one anime be used to fill multiple slots? For example, let's say someone watched an anime with a main character who is a child and that anime is also an award winning series. Can this count for completing two challenges?

I quickly glanced at your list you had posted and saw that you had a lot of movies on there. Seems you're using it knock out films. Try the film Hal. It's short and a good watch.

Ok so I might be a bit confused. #107 on the challenge is Finish and on-hold or dropped anime. It also says that you might be asked for the episode history as evidence. I don't really know how I could get that information. The main thing Im confused about is "If you receive the on-hold or dropped item, but don't have any anime that fits, change it to another item of the same tier." I would count my situation as this so does this mean I can change the item to another one?

Challenging myself to watch double the number of anime I have watched since becoming a weeb. Randomised too. Wish me luck :P

Appears Ive got to watch both a R-rated and R+-rated anime. Im guessing that means venturing into Hentai... Irk never thought Id ever have to do that. Would definitely need a recommendation for this.

Would definitely appreciate help for the rest too given that Im a newbie. Im #1047

Also appears that I'll need a recommendation from a staff member. @Sojin pls halp



Hey just randomly saw your comment and just thought you should know that for the challenges that need a R or R+ rating, it does NOT necessarily refer to the Hentai genre. I don't watch Hentai either, so I managed to find a R+ series that was decent and only had some mild nudity throughout, I watched: Grisaia no Kajitsu.

And some ideas for R rating: Boku dake ga Inai Machi
(SO Good), Akame Ga Kill!, Arslan Senki, Another.

You have Haikyuu!! and Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou on-hold and you can finish one of them for this particular item in the challenge. You appear to have last updated these mid-2017, so either of them would be elligible for #107.

Yes. If you do not have any anime that can be used for #107, you can change this item to any other from tier 3 that is not on your challenge list.

You have last updated it in July, actually. If you go to your on-hold list, hover over the item and click on 'more', then you will be able to see more information about when you have started it and when you have updated it.

Finish an on-hold or dropped anime - use any title that was started during or before July, 2017 and left unwatched; state the original start date and how many episode were previously watched; the anime can't have just one episode; the anime doesn't need to be on your on-hold/dropped list. Use any that you previously started watching and left without finishing for the longest. Note that you might be asked for your episode history as evidence.
If you receive the on-hold or dropped item, but don't have any anime that fits, change it to another item of the same tier.

Sakura Quest has 25 episodes, you have watched only one. It does not mean anything in this case, you can use it just fine.
