Durr, should've realized that earlier. Let me change that now.

There are tons of songs with sekai in it's name... This is gonna be painful.

As usual, I'm going with my traditional opener: Is the anime

• Science Fiction?
• Slice Of Life?

Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.

Are there Aliens?

Time Travelers?

Espers?

Does it have anything to do with pandas? Is the anime listed on Edmania's troper page?

Actually, it's my first recourse when I don't have the energy to overanalyse the hint. So yes, in a sense.

• Are there supernatural elements?
• Can the anime be considered part-Widget Series?
• Is there only one main character (as opposed to more than one sharing the spotlight)?

Does it have anything to do with pandas? Is the anime listed on Edmania's troper page? No. His page is currently almost blank.

Are there supernatural elements? No.

Can the anime be considered part-Widget Series? I'm just going to refer to the trope page, so no.

Is there only one main character (as opposed to more than one sharing the spotlight)? No.

My standard Anime Theme song game variant rules: [Censored by ACTA]

Is the song legal? Does pyrite know this one? does it have a tvtrope page?

...a little brother should belong to his older sister, right? - Orimura Chifuyu

If I'm still asking questions, it's definitely a No. I'm not Noimporta. (How would Poke know anyway?) Seriously, though, it's getting a little embarrassing. At least God Knows has gone meta.

Well there's that time your clues for a song was reused.

...a little brother should belong to his older sister, right? - Orimura Chifuyu

Ah, but you see, I wouldn't know that I know, thus making it impossible for the host to answer the question with certainty.

EDIT: Of course, if it's a song I've used before, then you could possibly make a case... if not for the fact that I could also technically "know" the songs that anyone's used in this game before. (I did Archive Binge this thread once or twice.) The same could be said for anyone else in this thread, since you won't know who's actually gone through the songs from the front page.
