Just wondering - are there any animes folks would like participation/completion banners for not already there? I might make some while I'm bored.


Absolutely yes. This year we've a ton of banners and have noticed an awful trend: either the colors looks awkward, or the font is too small, or inappropriate color, etc.

Taking note of that critique, any animes you'd like to see AWC 2019 banners of?

Need recommendation for "(E.05) Watch an anime adaptation with a score higher than its manga counterpart", seriously it's so hard to find -_- , is there a thread somewhere that discussed this? I didn't find it yet if there's one.

Regarding "(N.17) Watch an anime with a main character that is a professional in their field — state the character and profession; they get paid for their services, like a chef, detective, artist and so on. If unsure, ask in the discussion thread", does highschool teacher counts or only character that's a professional on their specific job? For example if one is an artist, he must be a famous artist, not just your average barely making money artist. And on the case of highschool teacher, should it be must someone who has a lot of experience at it, not just a rather newcomer (less than a year ~ 2 year) teacher?

Also, "(Ap.01) Watch a stand-alone OVA — stand-alone refers to no related anime; if it has an adaptation listed that's okay", what if it has alternative version but unrelated such as Cat soup?

By the way, since i've finished 20 novice items, i should be able to start on my apprentice items right? What are the conditions that could make me unable to do it other than somehow one of my novice item is getting additional episodes (mostly OVA/special type) and therefore making it unfinished?

I don't understand why people are overthinking this. Does the item ask for 2 years of experience? No? Then any high-school teacher is valid.

No another anime in the anime relations. So this one is not valid for the item.

I'm certain it's already stated somewhere, but here it is:
What happens if I have an invalid item after turning in?

-- If during the inspection of your challenge we find an invalid (an anime that doesn't fit the item requirements), you will be asked to either:

-- Replace the item for another not used of the same section WITH the same anime

-- Replace the anime with another watched during the time period of that section

-- In case you don't have any valid anime for this or any unused item during that section time period, you will be allowed to watch a new anime for the same item you had the invalid, after your Challenge Finish Date (date of the last watched anime for the challenge).

Thanks, Re:Cutey Honey is also available and seems better and more accessible.

It's just that some examples given aren't your average profession that's accessible for average person. Chef for example is an "advanced cook", and detectives have many qualifications and specialized training before becoming one.

Okay, thanks.

Since that's for after turning in, what if it happen before turning in? I've asked about that before here and that's why i asked if there's other cases when a participant's higher item would be invalid and thus need to restart at the point where their difficulty items. Though it would be easier if such participant only noticed after turning in. Or does it works before turning in as well?

I would count it as valid, just make sure you put down a source that it takes place in London.

Could you elaborate on what you're trying to ask? If it's about the specific "watch an on-hold or dropped anime" challenge item, could you provide more details on what you need help with? If it's not about that, just know that for any other challenge:

AWC_mod said:
The anime you choose to use for the challenge must be watched in its entirety during the challenge period.
Re-watched anime cannot be used for the challenge.


So watching an on-hold item that you started watching from last year and beyond would be invalid.

(Ap.08) Watch an anime with a voice actor that worked on 5 or less series

This could be any voice actor in the anime, even if they acted on one of the most insignificant supporting character, right?

(Ap.29) Watch an anime recommended to you in the challenge discussion thread

And, can anyone recommend me an anime to watch? Hopefully, nothing above 50 episodes.

"16. Watch an anime with 2 or more main characters where one is as a human child — state the child; the child should be 12 years old or younger (you should be able to find a source for the age; doesn't need to be stated on MAL); this item excludes characters that, as adults, goes back to being a child while retaining their memories (either time travel, being reborn or another cause) and half-humans; you need ONLY one child, regardless of who is part of the main cast, meaning there can be more children as main characters or just that one"

If you haven't started Apprentice yet, you can watch something new for N.24. Your old screenshot won't be usable because you had to change it when you changed your username. You do not have to start everything new.

Well, last year this was passed since they are stated to be kids, at least 2 of three, over at a credible source so you should be fine.

Be sure that the character is listed in 'Characters & Staff' section on your selected anime though, since some OVA/specials/movie entries of a TV series sometimes only list main characters or even just one character.

The only use for on-hold anime for AWC2019 AFAIK is for '(I.29) Finish an anime you put on-hold or dropped on or before July, 2018'.

According to wikipedia, professional shogi player gets monthly salary, and since Yaichi is a Ryuou, it's probably safe to assume he got one as well. Though i don't remember the anime mentions him getting salaries. Also, since he has 2 disciples, of course he would be paid.

If the listed start date for the anime is on or after 1980 OR on or before 1989 it is valid. So having 1980 or 1989 as an airing start date is okay.

I have a question regarding (N.31)
Watch an anime from a random TVTropes

It says in the description of the item to use any series of the franchise listed.

When I go on TVTropes they usually seem to list Bakemonogatri as the series (for example for the trope Art Shift) which is the name of the first series of the franchise. Now if I would want to watch Zoku Owarimonogatari would that be valid?

I think they put Bakemono there as a representative of the whole franchise (when you click on it it leads to a Monogatrari-Series entry) but just looking at it just this one title is referenced by name.

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex counts towards "(Ap.25) Watch a listed Cyberpunk or Steampunk themed anime" right?

And also. Can someone recommend me a random anime. Thanks!

Would Ansatsu Kyoushitsu work for Intermidiate No. 15, watch an anime with a non-humanoid main character? From what I can tell, Koro sensei should fit but I wanted to be sure. I don't think he's any more humanoid than Totoro but I wanted to check here before committing. Thanks!

Maybe I read the FAQ wrong but why are we limited to only 2 airing anime in a section?

What if I do the challenge in a way that a section is finished each season?

Yes, GitS:SAC is Cyberpunk. For your recommendation check out one of these:
Hanasaku Iroha
Log Horizon
Kill la Kill

Koro-sensei is a great choice for a non-humanoid character.

The 2 airing anime limit only applies to those who finish the challenge in December with anime that finish airing after the challenge period deadline. If you are watching a currently airing anime, you can watch as many as you want as long as they finish airing within the finish date of the tier you have chosen to use them in. Since you can't start completing items for a higher tier until you finish the previous tier, you won't be able to complete the item used for the currently airing anime until it finishes airing.

Good Lord, BeanChagBear just walked through the clubhouse walking perfectly normally.
He said he had “no time” to talk.
Too busy watching anime, evidently.

Just wondering - are there any animes folks would like participation/completion banners for not already there? I might make some while I'm bored.

If you don't have too many requests, a precure banner would be cool. Either this season's star twinkle or the past couple season's Hugtto or kirakira.

N. 7 watch a series in which your favorite character's voice actor participated in. I have Koro Sensei listed as a favorite, and he's voiced by Tomokazu Seki, who also voices Junpei in those who hunt elves. However, Seki only voices him in the 2 thousand 13 Jump festa special which I haven't seen. In all the tv series of assassination classroom, koro sensei is voiced by Jun Fukuyama. Can I still use the elves show if koro sensei is voiced in one instance by Seki?

Since both Seki and Jun are listed as his VA you can use either. So Seki is ok ;)

Hello
I want to use Watashi ni Tenshi ga Maiorita!
[Children: Hinata Hoshino, Hana Shirosaki, Noa Himesaka]

for the item Apprentice #20
Watch an anime with at least 3 human children as main characters — state the children; they should be 12 years old or younger (you should be able to find a source for the age; doesn't need to be stated on MAL); state the character; this item excludes characters that, as adults, goes back to being a child while retaining their memories (either time travel, being reborn or another cause) and half-humans

But i cant finde a source for the actual age of the 3 children. i only found a source stating that they are in 5th grad which would mean they are 10-11 years old by japanese standards.

Is this valid or do i have to finde a source for the actual age?
