M said I could open this thread, then, thanks M =P

The game goes like that:
A user posts a picture from an anime. Another user(s) who recognizes the anime from which the picture has been taken from posts the name of the anime. If he's sure of his answer, he can immidiately post a picture of his own(anime, of course) or pass the turn to other users. If he isn't(sure), he can wait 'till he's told his answer was right.

There are some things that should be followed to keep the game organized:
-The global rules are no exception in this thread. ;D [I haven't checked yet if there are global rules, but I believe there are... I should read them... ;X]
-If it isn't your turn, don't put a picture of your own.
-If 72 hours(3 days) have passed since the picture was posted, the turn automatically passes, and anyone who pleases can post one.
-If 2 or more people answered at the same time, and they all are right, the person whose answer appears the first in the thread will be the person with the right to post a picture of his own.

Some things that should be obvious:
-The name of the anime/the character is not supposed to be on the picture's link. [In other words: Take a second, save the picture on your computer, rename it and re-upload it.]
-The name of the anime/character is not supposed to be on the picture itself. You can, of course, 'censor' it["Paint" can be really useful sometimes =P].
I'd also like to ask for something... It's not a rule, but please post pictures that will not be THAT hard to recognize. I mean, don't post the leg of a character, or an house, or the beach... but, if those pictures can be easily recognized then it should be okay...

I can't think of any other rules at the moment... if anyone wants to add a new rule, a reasonable one, I'll add.

I heard the anime forum is a bit inactive, I hope the game will make it more active.

I shall be the first to post a picture.
For the beginning I will post an easy one~

I hope you'll join the game. =]
And, btw, hello, I'm new in here xD I believe I have had a few spelling mistakes... then please excuse me for that.

The halo and wings give that one away. That's Rakka from Haibane Renmei, also known as "Charcoal Feather Federation".


Here's the next one :)

Is it... Kirakishou from Rozen Maiden?

M

Nope. Kirakishou wears a white dress, has white hair, as well as an eyepatch. Nor is it any character from Rozen Maiden.

Le portrait de petit cossette. That ova is pretty creepy ;p
I thought about starting with a picture from there xD

That is one of my favorite animes:

Gah. I know this one but not by name. The english name mentions a moon. something like Looking at the full moon :/

Memoo
January 31st, 2008, 08:08 pm
You're right~ It's called "Hanbun no tsuki ga noboru sora"[or hantsuki for short]...
the only thing you didn't get right is the "full moon", while it's a half =P

I hope it's okay I make a double-post~ I just want the thread to 'jump' to the top, so people will see it's updated~
anyway, I'm pretty sure my answer was right, and plus-minus three days have passed...
So I'll post another picture. The picture is easy~ I don't want to post some hard one, 'cuz I think the game is nicer when it flows~

I'd be surprised if anyone got this one easily, mostly because the show itself doesn't really revolve around space stuff. And yes, that ship does have a name 0.0

one of the nanoha?

and the point of the game is not to say the names of the characters/objects that are seen, but the name of the anime it is taken from...

Nate River

Maybe it's just me but I'm pretty sure if someone can name the character, they know the name of the anime too. :P I don't think it matters.

Aria is just a perfect anime. ;_;

Your picture is...horo(had to recall her name) from spice and wolf~ [ookami to...kyouadsfoak ;D]

the following picture is from the first episode of the anime it is taken from, so if you watched at least that you'd be able to recognize the anime~ though, it's not a known one.

It's because the show doesn't really revolve around this character or masks in general.
