Banner: Rinarin EASY ― 0.75 POINTS | MEDIUM ― 1.50 POINTS | HARD ― 2.25 POINTS EXPLANATION　The idea of this challenge is to help you learn about the variety of festive days depicted in anime. HOW-TO: 　— You will find and watch series that fit and/or depict the requested Holiday (or festive day) per item. 　— You must provide a source for each Holiday, if there's no listing provided. 　— Limit yourself to use the provided sites for each holiday. If you were to find another suitable listing, provide it to a staff so we can verify it. Difficulties: Easy: 1 per holiday (25 series) Medium: 2 per holiday (50 series) Hard: 3 per holiday (75 series) 　— No second run (x2) available. Previously completed series aren't allowed. Neither is re-watching. 　— Series previously started, but not finished, may be used. 　— Airing can be used, but you must complete the series, so you can only turn-in the challenge after the series has finished airing. Any type is allowed, but must be equal to or longer than 15 minutes (total). Your challenge "Starting Date" is the day you post. 　— Remember that it's required to add the start and end dates to any anime you use for our challenges. You cannot use the same entry more than once across all difficulties. ABOUT THE HOLIDAYS: Items that read "Watch an anime that takes place in the (season)" refers to that particular season happening in the anime. 　— It doesn't refer to anime that aired during that season. 　— For example: 　　• Series about starting a new school year tend to take place during Spring. 　　• Series that have a New Year episode tend to takes place during Winter (or should be). 　　• Series that have a beach episode have a high chance of happening in Summer. Some of the holidays are harder to inspect and you will be asked for evidence about them. 　— It's suggested that you provide a source link, screenshot and/or any other evidence that might back you up, unless it's stated on the anime synopsis here on MAL. 　— If a listing is provided, it's also suggested that you state the episode and timestamp in case we want to double check. (optional) 　— Note that there will be items in which this isn't required. If a listing is provided, limit yourself to use the provided sites for each holiday. 　— If you were to find another suitable listing, provide it to a staff so we can verify it. To make this easier on the inspectors, you MUST provided evidence on the items that request it. 　— Otherwise it's an instant invalid. 　— Note that in most items this won't be required.
