Depends on how you like your romance anime. If build-up is important to you, then you'd have to watch the original first. The original series is 70 episodes and 1 movie/film of build-up + anime-only conclusion. The prologue, however, starts right before the "ending" and is considered the "true ending" to that particular arc while providing set-up for the next. It could alternatively be considered a beginning |

Ones I screened for 5 main characters + OVAs/movies/specials are the following: Lupin wa Ima mo Moete Iru ka Lupin III: Princess of the Breeze Lupin III: Record of Observations in the East Lupin III: The Last Job Lupin III: Green vs. Red Lupin III: Voyage to Danger Lupin III: Crisis in Tokyo Lupin III: The Fuma Conspiracy Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro Lupin III Episode 0: The First Contact Lupin III: Angel Tactics Lupin Family Lineup Lupin the Third x Monkey Majik Of course, you'll probably have to verify the ages of the one-off characters. Alternatively, I believe Genshiken was previously stated to count. So you might choose to watch the Genshiken OVAs. |

| Hi, I'm guessing this question might have been asked already, but for #59- Watch an anime with at least two human children as main characters Can I use Gakuen Babysitters? The children don't have an exact age stated (and I couldn't find one when I searched), but the synopsis and story clearly states/shows all the kids being watched are toddlers (specifically Kashima, Kotarou and Kamitani, Taka). |
hushesthepuppies said: Oh yeah man, youre def fine here. Pretty obvious that they're toddlers; doubt any staff would give you trouble. That said, if you wanna cover all your bases, the wikia lists them as toddlers, so you could leave that link in your turn in form as backup.Hi, I'm guessing this question might have been asked already, but for #59- Watch an anime with at least two human children as main characters Can I use Gakuen Babysitters?

Is Sojin's recommendation still valid or does this mean I'll have to ask someone else? |

| Hey people on the challenge, I did watch lots of animes during and after "The Darkness" (the time MAL was offline) ;) But since we were unable to update, I lost track of them. And even after that, I was kinda unmotivated to do so. This week I'm trying to update my list but I want to know how did you deal with that? |

And even after that, I was kinda unmotivated to do so. This week I'm trying to update my list but I want to know how did you deal with that? Once I realized MAL wasn't coming back anytime soon, I used the waybackmachine to pull up an older version of my entries, put these in a notepad document, and updated from there. By the time MAL went up I just had to insert the dates I had recorded. As for being unmotivated, I feel you. When MAL went down I was right in the middle of watching something I found a pain to get through and now I have to rush to get my stuff done. Thinking about stepping down a lv. I'll try for a few more days but if I'm unable to get any progress I'll submit as is. |

I have an account on AniList so while MAL was down I was watching and updating my stuff as usual on there. And when MAL came back I just added the anime I had watched meanwhile. Oh but luckily back in January I had decided to save my sign-up form in notepad so I didn't have problems remembering what I planned to watch while the website was down. |

| For Item 43 (Watch an anime with a voice actor that worked on 5 or less anime), does the voice actor need to have been in the voice acting role for the anime in question, or are they allowed to be in other staff positions, while having voice acted for other anime? For example, I'm looking at Maho Tomito for her role in Kamichu!, where she sang the OP, but did not act for any characters in the show. She has a voice acting role for Shoujo Kageki Revue Starlight, but I'm already using that title for another item and can't double up, of course. |

You are correct in that assumption. 23:59 PST on the 24th is the official deadline. Unofficially, the deadline is whenever the thread gets locked and it may stay open a bit into the 25th. It's probably better to turn in well before that if you wanna make sure though. |
