Can you use different favorite anime for different items? For example: If I do Silver Nr. 5 (Watch an anime by a director that made one of your Favorite Anime) and Silver Nr. 7 (Watch an anime that began airing the same season and year as your favorite anime), do I have to use the same anime as my favorite or can it be any anime of the 10 that I have marked as my favorites?

It doesn't have to be the same one. Any favorite listed on your profile will be fine. I actually used two different favorites for those items myself.

Mouryou no Hako has four human adults as main characters, but I could not find a source that states their exact age. Can I still use this for Silver Nr 29 (Watch an anime with at least 3 human adults as main characters) ?

Anime-Planet lists them all as adults. Looks good to me.

Question for S.07 - Watch an anime that began airing the same season and year as your favorite anime

just double checking...

fav is Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu - started Jan 8, 1988
target is Kyoufu no Bio Ningen Saishuu Kyoushi - aired Feb 6, 1988

and that would be considered Winter 1988?

Hi!

I am kindly asking some good soul here who would help me with (S.21) Watch an anime recommended to you in the challenge discussion thread.

I would prefer anime with no more than 13 episodes. Please no ecchi, harem! If you give me more than one option, I would be super happy.

Thanks in advance ~

When in doubt, check the seasonal anime page: Winter 1988.
Is Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu there? Is Kyoufu no Bio Ningen Saishuu Kyoushi there?
(the answer is yes for both)

Might have been asked before, but if I complete some anime after completing the challenge but before turning-in, do those count to "the number of anime completed at turn-in" that one should put at the turn-in form? I assume that they do count towards the number, but I'm asking just to be sure

Yes those count toward the completed at turn-in ^^


Thanks for the answer.
Another possibly dumb question but do I have to edit my original challenge post to reflect the difficulty that I aimed for? (Like putting "Diamond Medalist" on "Difficulty" instead of the default "Bronze Medalist")

If you are going for any other difficult besides Bronze Medalist, then yes please change it accordingly.

I just finished watching Inu to Hasami wa Tsukaiyou/ Dog & Scissors and was wondering if it fits the criteria for (B.27) Watch an anime with a main character that is a professional in their field. The main character, Natsuno, is an author and I think they mention maybe once offhandedly how she got a lot of money from someone buying all her books. Would this count for this challenge? Thanks!

Yes that would be valid - she's a best-selling novelist, which implies she does make money.

I wanted to clarify if anime for the challenge have to be watched after you signed up (or posted) in the 2020 AWC forum. I know in previous years it was ok to have watched anime before signing up for the challenge as long as it was started and completed from Jan-Dec.
However, I think I might've seen somewhere that the anime for this challenge have to be watched after the start of signing up. So for example, having finished watching an anime in February would be invalid if I signed up/posted in March.
Could anyone clarify? Thanks!

As long as you started watching the anime in 2020, it's valid. It does not have to be started after your signup date.

How should I write the 'required' part on the sign up form?

Suppose,I am a Bronze Medalist and I need to complete 20 animes to pass the level.I have already completed 13 animes and I only need 7 more.

So should I write '13/20 required' or '7/20 required'?

A question regarding format. In the main sign-up section at the top, it says to use format for dates as MONTH DAY, YEAR. In the challenge section, format is MMM dd. Do we change formats, or use just one?
