Guess the anime based on the picture!

[luffy4]

1 is something rumiko takahashi i know that much

[Gypsy]

Aight. Newer show.

Spoiler warning:

Bumpin' my shit for new page.

[Knightshade]

bump now all the ones that are waiting are on the same page also to reduce back reading I still think #4 in these may be FLCL.

Alright, here's mine. It's fukchueg (1920x1213). Although the forum will likely auto-scale it. So open in a new tab/window to view full size if you want better detail.



1 - Macross Frontier - Gare
2 - UNSOLVED
3 - The World God Only Knows - H.N.K.
4 - UNSOLVED
5 - UNSOLVED
6 - Tower of Druaga - Demondrago21
7 - Bakemonogatari - Demondrago21
8 - Maria†Holic - Demondrago21

[Colamisu]

is 4 FLCL also i'll post a few of this one since i believe it is obscure if no one guesses then I will tell you what they are they have been edited to take out name of anime and main character because i did an anime/main character name search and it gives it away try to guess mine but don't forget gypsy and colamisu also have unsolved ones.

Nope, not FLCL.

Sure. I put together a nice grid. Most of them should be pretty easy, but a couple should be obscure enough to keep things interesting. Except for the fact that I've recommended most of these here at some point or another.

4 is Kuragehime.


And finally, bumping my own to the top page again. And dding hints at the bottom since people seem to have ignored it.

Alright, here's mine. It's fukchueg (1920x1213). Although the forum will likely auto-scale it. So open in a new tab/window to view full size if you want better detail.

Spoiler warning:

ALL SOLVED
1 - Macross Frontier - Gare
2 - B Gata H Kei - Demondrago21
3 - The World God Only Knows - H.N.K.
4 - Hyper Police - Gypsy
5 - Jing: King of Bandits - Gypsy
6 - Tower of Druaga - Demondrago21
7 - Bakemonogatari - Demondrago21
8 - Maria†Holic - Demondrago21

2 is about sex. No, seriously. It's about sex. Not love. Sex.
4 has cat ears in the 22nd year of the New Holy Era.
5 has all of the female leads named after alcohol. Also, there are three characters in the bottom right. Don't forget to view full size.

And none of them are porn, obviously. Because that would just be too damn obscure.

EDIT: Oi, don't bump mine for me!

[Gypsy]

I seem to recall a ridiculous new anime that came out this year is 2 from this year? I didn't watch it much but I may know. I can't think of it right now and I'm tired to I'll get back to it tomorrow.

4 is Hyper Police.

Edit: 5 is Jing: King of the Bandits maybe? Been forever since I've seen that and the SS isn't helping much.

If I answer that, it's another hint!

Yep, spot on.

Aight. Newer show.

Spoiler warning:

Is this one Heaven's Memo Pad? Or whatever variation of the name you want to use.

[Gypsy]

Note my edit in the last post.

And my guess for 2 is Astarotte's Toy, that's the anime I was thinking of at the very least.

Is this one Heaven's Memo Pad? Or whatever variation of the name you want to use.

Nope. I have a giveaway clue but I'll wait a bit longer to post it.

[Colamisu]

5 is indeed Jing. 2 is not Astarotte's Toy.

And yeah, that's what I was going for with the screenshot there. All of them contained a pretty damn major character, so I wanted to be a bit more sneaky with at least one.

That series never really seemed too terribly strong character-wise, anyway. My other idea for it was just the masks/candles from the final Masquerade Ball of Zaza episode, because that's my favourite episode.

[Mistral]

6 is Planetes.

Yep.

1 is something rumiko takahashi i know that much

Nope. That was a fairly typical art style back in the 80s.

4 is Kuragehime.

Yep.

Mmm...actually, I can barely see the characters in the bottom right even at full size. Only three series I can think of that have alcoholic theme naming, one of which I've never seen, one of which is a video game and not an anime, and since Galaxy Angel didn't have them in the anime, I'll take a wild stab at it and guess Jing, King of Bandits.

Table of guesses:

Spoiler warning:

1.
2.
3.
4. Kuragehime
5.
6. Planetes
7.
8. Dennou Coil

EDIT: You know, I need to stop waiting and reworking these posts. That's twice I got beaten to the punch in two hours, now.

Same with mine. The only two that don't contain the main protagonist have already been guessed (Kuragehime and Dennou Coil) and both of those still have a major protagonist, though 2 is kinda iffy since it has two parallel stories.

[Gypsy]

Oh Mistral, you so slow babe.

Edit: If no one has finished off Cola's by tomorrow I'm ramping up my efforts.

[Colamisu]

#3 in Mistral's looks like it might be Princess Tutu. Or some other bastardized version of Swan Lake anime.

[Knightshade]

off topic you are right about it being to easy to cheat the quotes gypsy I typed a very obscure anime quote but common enough that you might use it in everyday speech quote into google and hit it right away so I have already removed that thread thank you for pointing that out

2.
3. Princess Tutu

[Demondrago21]

2. for Colamisu is B Gata H Kei

[Colamisu]

Yar, and it is complete. Now we can focus on Mistral's.

So the score for that round was:
Demondrago21 - 4
Gypsy - 2
Gare - 1
H.N.K. - 1
