That's pretty cool. Tatara seems to be having fun, with his Gogai! Gogai magazine and all.
And yes, the answers will probably be anounced after the competition.

I suffered from the same symptom. The first clue is particularly difficult for non-North American, for CPM had translated its title in a rather distant way. Those who memorize titles with Japanese (I've noticed you are stationed at Yokota AB; assuming that you've asked some Japanese friends?) would have a hard time trying to dig out which title it was.
After the first clue, the rest of them were a breeze and were finished in less than five minutes. |

hmm...this contest seems like fun 
I am having trouble with the first clue though, I have a question:Once I find the anime page that the clue was meant to lead me to, will there be another picture and clue on the page that is easy to spot? |

Thanks, but I finnished already,  . I didn't think it would be so quick. It wasn't too hard since I was familiar with most of the anime titles |

I finished, knowing nothing past "I think I've read this title somewhere". You people shouldn't have given any hints.  I just hit CTRL-F a couple times... |

Just sent in my answer. That was a lot of fun, though I got stuck on some parts. Good luck to everyone who figured it out!
Evenif you don't win, I still highly reccomend checking Kakurenbo out. It's a really awesome anime. |

What happened to the clue about if Kakurenbo were a dream, what a beautiful dream it would be? It's the one that came with the pic of the old man wearing make-up. It's gone now, & got replaced with a totally different clue....
Not that I'm complaining, I couldn't figure out that clue for the life of me.  I spent days trying to figure that one out (all the others were easy till that), but just couldn't get it. Thank goodness for the (much) easier clue. |

Dude I was stuck on that one as well and the clue was really easy. Now I just need to ask my parents if I can enter. |

I'm surprised you couldn't get that one, your avatar and all...
Anyways, the last clue was changed for a secret reason.

If we already submited the pervious last anime in the game will that still be valid, or will we have to submit this one as well? |

I'm wondering this as well. Or is it so theres a first drawing which the people who were fast enough to figure it out get those prizes for that then the second drawings for those who didn't get it quick enough gets prizes off that answer? Or is it you just didn't want people telling off the answer that easily so you're changing it around? |

..? It's only the final "ANIME" name that you put into the box...if that's what you're getting at...I believe that it's because of the fact that people would easily be given the particular answers to different questions, so the person changes the route towards the final answer. (Unless anyone got a 'different' final answer than what shows up now) You can only enter once yourself throughout this WHOLE contest (specifically shown) of "Hide & Seek".
...what questions there were now were easy...except the 2nd clue, which really kinda stumped me for about ten minutes until I really looked "IN" to the picture...then it made sense. From there, it was easy since I knew most the anime that existed there.
During the second one I was honesly looking through my favorite anime once I got stumped lol Such as Rurouni Kenshin, Vandread, and old classics (I found Astro Boy's first title "The Atom" - I think it was... lol). It was fun and exciting, hope there will be a lot more in the future that takes time off a person's hand, maybe at least 3 day's time. |

No, no, the people who submitted their answers prior to the last answer being changed will still have valid entries. We had to change the last one to thwart some cheaters. |
