Well, I really don't have enough experience, but anyway:

• Is the anime an adaptation of a manga?
• Is the anime an OVA?
• Did the anime first air after 2009?

Assuming the entire Karuta round was correctly counted as 382, This round would make 389 and we've been ahead by around 4 for a minimum of 3 rounds, after which no one decided to really give a d*mn.

Anyways...

Did the anime debut in Spring? Autumn? Winter?

There is no night without dawn. The sun is always sure to rise.

Actually, I think we're on round 392 now.

Does it have a TV Tropes page?

Does it have a Visual Novel?

Is there a Posthumous Character?

Is the anime The Idolmaster?

Was the ED featured during the Summer cour?

Or the Fall cour?

How could we forget that (aside from God Knows), Dorkus is this thread's resident Idolmaster fanboy? (I'm betting shark33 knew, but still...)

Ergo, I'm guessing that the song is Yakusoku (Promise). (To elaborate further would probably involve spoilers, ne, ne?)

Pyrite wins!

"約束 (Yakusoku/Promise)" - Asami Imai, Eriko Nakamura, Akiko Hasegawa, Mayako Nigo, Azumi Asakura, Hiromi Hirata, Asami Shimoda, Rie Kugimiya, Chiaki Takahashi, Yumi Hara, & Manami Numakura - The Idolmaster

PREDICTABO!

Apologies to all those who'd probably guessed it already. In the meantime, I'm going to try this... but it's going to end in tears.

Round... Uh, 393: I'd like to Vie a Bowel!

Tonight's category is: Before and After. This means that there are 2 songs, and you have to successfully guess both songs in one shot to win.

(For those who aren't familiar with Wheel Of Fortune, the Before and After category combines two things with a common word, usually at the end of the first item and the beginning of the second. For example, combining Shangri-la with La Divinia Tragedia ~Makyoku~ will give Shangri-La Divinia Tragedia ~Makyoku~. In other words, the answer should look something like this:

(Song 1 {Common Word) Song 2}.

And yes, that's the hint. To avoid making this more difficult than intended, there are no restrictions aside from the standard rules.

CLARIFICATION: If the titles were originally in hiragana / kanji, assume I'm using the original, phonetic or romanji versions. If they were in katakana / English / Engrish, then assume I'm using the titles as written or translated.

Okay then...

Are both anime produced by the same studio and/or aired during the same/overlapping timeframes?

Is anime 1 produced by a studio that has an anime that's currently airing? Same question for anime 2.

edited 25th Nov '11 5:12:12 AM by Pokénatic

That first question is a little hard to answer in a Yes / No fashion, so...

• Both anime aired in separate timeframes and / or were produced by different companies.
• Anime 1 was produced by a company with a currently-airing anime.
• Anime 2 was produced by a company with a currently-airing anime.

-Is either of animes currently airing?

-Do they share same genre?

-Are both interprets of same sex?
