*THIS EVENT HAS ENDED
![]() ~Winners~ Welcome to a special Waste Your Weekend that will only happen 4 times a year! At the end of each anime season (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter) we'll be taking all the series that have just ended and marathon them! This gives you a chance to watch all those shows you missed before the next season really gets going. This seasonal themed marathon event is opened to all AP members in which we compete to be the biggest wasters on anime-planet! This breaks down to each event technically having 2 seasons of ended anime in the list because all the anime from before this season will be ending as well because they had 24-26 episodes. Prizes for participating: 1) Immense bragging rights 2) Fun discussions with fellow wasters 3) Almost a whole day’s worth of anime added to your stats 4) You are now in the know about all the series people are chattering about How it works: you pick what shows you want to watch from the set list below, watch your chosen shows over the course of the weekend, go into the linked threads and discuss them with fellow buddies. Your choices must be from the list and you must watch the minimum number set in each category, although watching more is highly encouraged. ^_^" Recommendations: PLEASE ADD RECOMMENDATIONS for these series once you've watched them! The site and database needs your help - everyone who participates in WyW should add recommendations for other series they think a person would like, if they can think of any. Thanks! You may watch: 2 24-26 episode series ~OR~ 1 24-26 episode series + 2 11-13 episode series ~OR~ 4 11-13 episode series SUPER CHALLENGE: any combo that adds up to 4 24-26 episode series (can use Friday if wanted) Here is the list of choices: ~Spring 2009 Anime~ (24-26 eps) 07-Ghost (25 eps) / Thread Basquash (26 eps) / Thread Guin Saga (26 eps) / Thread Pandora Hearts (25 eps) / Thread Saki (25 eps) / Thread Valkyria Chronicles (26 eps) / Thread Tears to Tiara (26 eps) / Thread Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~ (26 eps) / Thread ~Summer 2009 Anime~ (11-13 eps) Bakemonogatari (12 eps) / Thread Aoi Hana (11 eps) / Thread Canaan (13 eps) / Thread Kanamemo (13 eps) / Thread Princess Lover!

I'm basically going to be watching summer anime for the next month anyway, so I'll be in on this. Just don't know what series yet until I figure out whether or not I'm going to be visiting home that weekend. (and thus out from under the evil clutches of my college's bandwidth equalizer that prevents me from watching Funi's streams)

i hope everyone can participate in this! it's an idea i pitched to chii to run because i personally am NEVER up to speed on current series, except what i drop after i've added the entries.
i may not do the full gambit but i definitely plan on watching a few. i'd like to request too that anyone who does this PLEASE MAKES RECOMMENDATIONS after you're finished! the most recent 'waste your weekend' only had a whole two (chii and fireflower, iirc) people who made recs - this is bad! everyone should have opinions on what else someone would like if they watched what you watched, and the database needs your help! please add recs and convince your fellow APers to add them as well ^_^ i'll do: -Umi Monogatari -Sora no Manimani uncertain of the rest so far

I'll be in on this, I've watched most of what I thought was worth while this summer but might find something I obviously missed (and gives me another excuse to rewatch Bakemonogatari!!!)
I'll have a look through them later and make my list :) |

I'm up for Basquash and Saki. I really wanna watch Bakemonogatari and Sora no Manimani, but I'm gonna wait until that those are finished.

I am not participating, since I have so many other things on my WTW list and I watched more than a few of these already, but I want to recommend to EVERYONE:
Taishou Yakyuu Musume - This one is a real sleeper. Watching it's main character, Koume, do ANYTHING puts a smile on my face. If you even kind of liked K-On!, consider this one (recommendation is already in place, sothis). Kanamemo - This show is kind of like a chocolate brain cancer lollipop. Worth watching for Haruka alone, but definitely NOT good for you. If you giggled at all at Maria+Holic, consider it (going to make the rec RIGHT NAO, sothis). Last edited by ThePatches; 09-30-2009 at 12:42 PM. Reason: Made Kanamemo sound ENTICING instead of scary |
