^The rule about living things is saying that a living thing can be seen in the picture -so long as it isn't recognizable as a character, like a mob chara or Vaisaga's example of a hand holding the item-, not that the living thing can be the main feature of the picture. The point of the minigame is to guess items or sceneries

Regardless, there's no way the pic you originally posted qualifies as a minigame picture, since it's very clearly a human character easily recognizable

I've actually been thinking. Are pics taken from openings or endings eligible for the mini-game (like scenery or something)? I faintly remember someone posting a pic of scenery taken from an opening or ending, and I also remember someone saying that it's a good idea for the mini-game. Am I misremembering that? Because if such pics are eligible for the mini-game then I might actually post a mini-game every now and then.


So long as it appears in a watchable portion of an episode, it's fine.

I disagree a bit. But I will change the pic in my post.
From what I understand, an inanimate object, a scenery, or a living thing is allowed, but with exceptions especially on a living thing. A living thing in the picture should not be a major character unless that major character is almost totally unrecognizable.


"Living thing" in that case is more, say, a random monster or something. It's not an inanimate object, but it can't be defined as a character. I used the AIM Burst creature from Railgun as a mini-game once, and something like the BETA from Muv-Luv would also count.

New mini-game is spoiler[Korori, Futaba's stuffed doll from Seiyu's Life.]

Sorry for the delay. I posted my guess right before leaving for work, and then I was doing some other stuff after I got home from work.

Here is the next character:

I was more like thinking of something like this. You know like "guess which anime's opening is this."

As a mini-game, I don't think there are any rule violations there.

I'm pretty sure some one did something like that before.
