Haha yes, I know it's another Yuri on Ice contest~

But I won't be making as many YOI contest in future so I can get back to actual BL contest or other title giveaways. I just want to make this contest since it's still cherry blossom season in Japan (and the prize has a cherry blossom themed). Of course, if you like Attack on Titan as well, then it's an extra bonus since it's on the other side of the same poster.

Contest rules and info:
- All forum members can join including forum staff.

- Just guess the name of the character (as in the item belongs to which character) in the picture shown. No time stamp needed.
EXAMPLE:
Picture #X - Yuri Katsuki

- Send your answers to me “aarinfantasy” via PM, with the Subject: AarinFantasy’s Contest Mar/Apr 2017 – Yuri On Ice!

- Only one time submission per person. So make sure you have everything you want and then only submit your answers to me.

- You are allowed to guess your answers if you can't find the answer. It's better than leaving it blank.

- You must answer ALL ten questions correctly to be in the running for the Grand Prize.


HINT for this contest:
- All pictures are screenshots from the YOI anime series, episode 1 till 12.
- The pictures are not flipped or edited in any way, just cropped from the screenshot.
- It can be any character (that has a name) in the anime, male or female.
- The character can be repeated in other questions.


-------------------
PRIZES
-------------------

Grand Prize:
Yuri On Ice & Attack On Titan A1 folded poster by PASH Magazine March 2017 edition.
(Note: The poster is already folded by default)

Grand Prize winner will be determined by a lucky draw among the all correct answers entries, which will be picked by me using a randomizer or manual paper pick (which I may show on video).

Participants with all correct answers: 1 Event Card of your choice from the iShop (including Grand Prize winner)

If you have any questions, you can ask me here.
Feel free to chat also in this thread ^_^;; Like which pic you find hardest etc. I'd love some feedbacks too :)

Have fun!

Thanks for another YoI round! Gonna lean back already though :wohoho: I hope I got them all right~ :cowboy: Good luck, everyone!!

@Sreaky; :nani: so fast!

I'll get to it one of these days when I find more time. It does look harder than the previous one though O_O

@Aki; Actually I found it easier... ^^; Well, I went through the series quickly once, and found all of them except #2 and #5 (Yes, surprisingly... I thought it would jump out but apparently not :hot:). And as for #2, I swear I saw it when I watched the series again for the previous YoI contest... but it's eluding me now. xD

Thanks Aarin for another contest! :)

I also think these might be way easier to spot, but I don't have time until the weekend x'D
I'll see x3

:thief: this deadline is quick! ... I love that I have an excuse to rewatch :cutie:

Just sent in my PM - this one was unique and a lot of fun!

#2 was my last one, too. Next to last was #9.

LOL #4 was the first one, I think.

I find that using screencaps is a great way to start searching - even if the caps don't perfectly match, you still have a window of which episode and about when to focus on.

Please forgive my incredible greediness, but is there any chance of getting any new event cards in the iShop? :D

:recard: @kerlyness; some of us can't even keep up with collecting the ones in the iShop already!! :escape: sob sob sob... it always kills me that I'm missing special/event cards... hahaha. OK, I'm kidding, more event cards wouldn't be the end of the world.

GONNA WATCH YOI ALLLLLLL NIGHT :wohoho:

I actually think the same as @laketica; about the amount of Event cards though as the last few contests did not add new ones I kinda finally/nearly caught up with all the ones I wanted :banzai: but yeah I think it is good to not always make new event card with each contest, it was a good way to "catch up" :D

I will probably try this later today or tmr....

About new event cards, nope not yet...maybe the next contest or so.

Actually I will be off to a few countries from mid April till beginning of May... mainly for work, that's why the due date is a bit quicker this time around, so I can send the prize out just before I fly off. I don't have much time to make any new cards or do more activities until I get back.

When I come back, I hope to bring more unique items as prizes for future contests too, possibly a few optional prizes like some previous contests, so you can choose what you like, and then I can snowball the prizes too.

gosh I spent all day on this but STILL am missing #5 :aty:

gotta retry another day, can't concentrate anymore x'D
wit uni and and a new job starting this week I hope I'll manage to find the time :monk:

wow! #5 is that bad huh? I didn't think it would be, which means it... maybe it's really small... meant to not really draw attention... maybe in the corner... hm... I'm not done rewatching yet, maybe I should pay more attention. :cowboy:

Done and sent! #2 and #5 are probably the hardest... #5 is like... 3 seconds? Or something. Then it's gone. And #2 lasts a bit longer but moves away quickly... xD Hint hint. :lol: Also, what gave #2 away for me was the background... Look closely... and then... you'll narrow it down. :D

:imd: I finished rewatching... I got all of them except #5... so... time to start over again from ep1! :lalala:

Sent in my answers! Always the feels again after rewatching it~

Anyway, I didn't have that much trouble with #5 as it's pretty big :lol: But it does go fast. #2 and #6 bothered me for a while as they are tiny. #4, #7 and #10 were obvious from the start as I remembered them from previous watchings :rolleyes:
Good luck everyone, deadline is getting closer! :lalala:

HUWAAA! My first contest and I'm so GLAD that's over! :ostress: Took me two repeats to get them all, but I'm 100% happy with my answers! :cowboy:

Thanks for the contest, Aarin-san! :) GOOD LUCK to everyone! :cheerldr:

I am glad this contest enables people to see more "new" things every time ^_^
(Although this one the difficulty is lower than previous contests)

does anyone have any hints for #1, #2, or #3? Those are though ones for me! :aty: I can help anyone out on the other ones :hot:

I don't want to break any rules, so all I'll say is #1 and #3 are two of the easy ones and they have a pretty long screen-time. As for #2, keep a close eye on the background because it goes by pretty fast. GOOD LUCK! :cheer:

Now it makes me wish I was able to participate in the previous ones. I went back to look at them; they were very fun and exciting (any excuse to watch YOI again and again)! ^___~

ahhh thank you for your advice :banzai: good luck to you as well! :dance:

Took long enough but was finally able to finish it (been busy ^^; ). Good luck everyone :)

Thank you for the contest. All the best everyone.

Pm sent. :shy:
Thank you for another fun contest!! :hug: :pushup:

I had trouble with #5. For a bit, I kinda disliked poor teddy cause I couldn't find it.

Good luck everyone & have fun!! :grouphug: :D

Hey everyone!~ I am closing this contest since it has passed the due date and time.
Will announce the winner sometime soon!

WHOA! This is the first time I'm seeing your method! Though I must admit, I had to watch it more than once since my attention was first on the Viewfinder manga and by the time I moved back, the randomizer was done and all I saw was the list of names... :hot:

Thanks for the contest and congrats to laketica :)

Congrats laketica! :clap: And yay for everyone getting al answers correct! :lol: Well done everyone~
And thank you Aarin for the contest :hug:

Dear all, I can only send out the cards after next week Tuesday because I'm not home at the moment. If I can get online and some time before that, I will send out the cards but I most probably do that next week. Sorry for the wait!~

No! Please, no worries. Take your time! You had already warned us you'd be busy until May, so a slight delay is expected. Thank you for letting us know! :) You mentioned you were travelling for work, so have a safe journey! :monk:

Exactly! Plus it gives the indecisive people time to pick which card they want! ;)

:nwc: I just wanted to report that I safely received the poster!!! It was a lot bigger than I had expected :nani: so I went out immediately and bought a poster frame to put it up~ you can see the size compared to my other fanarts and the door and all that...

:nwc: :mlfy: :happy: my OT3 looks so happy~~ <3 thank you for the contest and I feel really fortunate and happy to have received this wonderful poster and will treasure it foreverrrr!!! <3
