Back in the day, when I lurked on Airliners.net, they used to play a game called "Name that Airport". The game involved airports, but it can be adapted to suit any purpose. In this game goes a little like this:
- One guy posts a picture of an anime show or movie
- The next person guesses, and posts a new image for the next person to guess
- If someone is wrong, then someone else points it out
I'm sure that we can get the kinks out after a few tries, so I'll start out with an easy one:

the maid uniform look familiar. is it mahoromatic?
*i'll post my image after got the answer

I think Hanaukyo Maids is ecchier! WAI!

Full Metal panic: The Second Raid OVA
How 'bout this:
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d3/Abel_K.jpg)
Oh sh*t. I really don't know. I'm gonna take a wild guess: Trinity Blood?
(http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w2/Joeyd_Sebastian/Lucky%20Star/Lucky20Star20-200820-20Large2010.jpg)
Well, that one is obvious: Lucky Star

Vampire Princess Miyu I believe
Let's see if you know this good doctor.
(http://www.mangasland.com/animes/J02.jpg)
Oh that looks familiar. A wild guess would be Jungle wa Itsumo Hale nochi Guu?
(http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p44/johwan/boeg.jpg)
Edit: Sorry, I tought it was guess, wait for confirmation and post pic. Here's a pic.
you need to put a picture silentbob-san!
Wow! Vampire princess miyu!!!
Ahh. the good old days. i remember watching that in highschool. it was the first anime I watched in vcd format....
And of course Jungle Wa Itsumo Hale Nochi Gu! How could i not know the doctor! hahahaah
I don't know... It looks like Nodame but yet it doesn't I don't know!
But this is probably all to easy but yet

I have no idea, so I'm gonna guess Rurouni Kenshin.

Waah!!! juz scenery...
lemme put a wild guest, Absolute Shonen?
i'll post my pic once i got the answer
Yinzer that's not a notch! I have no idea really, but I can't get Onegai Twins out of my head for that one.
but I'm not gonna wait for conformation because of my impatient nature

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v296/MarcandSiya/rsmeliss.jpg)
Hmmm, weird. I could have sworn I already answered that one!
Oh well ^.^
That one is...Rune Soldier? I'm rather certain ^^'
As for the next one... ^-^
(http://yui.interhosted.com/images/BBS/km_02.jpg)
I'm not sure if anyone is ever going to get this one...
Mission Implausible - Tsubashi is too much of a besserwisser for us...
We had a thread like this at our recently deceased forum. We had a time limit rule, that if there was no correct guess within a certain amount of time (usually 3 days), a new picture could be posted. It was just to prevent the thread from dying.
Gomen nasai, Gomen nasai. I could have sworn I posted the answer a few day later. I really meant to!
*Bows apologetically*
I think that one was "Tail Tale," but I'm not actually certain. I just asked a friend for "an obscure anime and pic" so that could be wrong. Feel free to continue.
Gomen nasai!
Not even the vampire himself knew?
The world is doomed, for sure....
*ahem* Well, with that cleared out of the way, I'll be taking the liberty of posting the next entrant! GOGO POWER RANGERS!!!
(and NO, that is NOT the answer, morons)

dono.. i have a dancing gif of her tho.. curies to know myself

Dragon Half?
It is Dragon Half.
okay, its dragon half, now what about mine?
I'm confused, I thought they guessed yours Captain.

this one -_-
Oh, no! I zoned out and got confused. I better try harder and get it together. Get it together.... Get it together... Get it together... Get it together...
(Is still confused, what dancing gif to you speak of?)
-_- still didnt guess..
i didnt post the dancing one, i ment i have a dancing gif of the dragon half girl and i had wondered what it was from
As in who made the gif?
i donno, It was a 4 chan download. anon made it
So can I bring the game back weth a pic?
BUT NO ONE GUESSED MY LAST PIC >_<
Is this the pic you are talking about?

this one -_-
NIEN! This one! Ive posted it twice! gah >_< Three times now
Memoriizu - Memories? <_< >_>
My confusion is surpassing that of the original Osaka's, I have one last guess as to where the breakdown in this whole situation could be steming from. If not, we may just have to declare my brain incapable of performing simple tasks. The name of the Anime is Dragon Half, the characters name is Mink.
Would that be Millennium Actress? *goes elsewhere to research*
Added after 8 minutes:
Nevermind. I'm wrong. XD
Pitkin was partialy right....
No cookie for close tho. Memories is the name of three short anime films in a collection. The name of that film in preticular was "magnetic rose." I would highly saggest that anyone that hasnt seen the AMV using clips from it with the techno version of the phantom of the opera that they go see it... NAO.
and yes nekosaka, you need to get it togeather. Dragonhalf and Mink was from the perviously posted pic, not mine. I think thats where the confusion lies.
Gah, I thought they were correct when they guessed at yours a while ago. Sorry, my brain has some... issues. XP
Lets see if I can help bring the flow back to this topic. Do you know THIS MAN?(as oposed to THAT MAN)

IT'S THE EVIL TWIN! But as NekOsaka said, Blood+, Diva.
I was about to say, i wasnt the original blood. I thought it looked familure tho.. i have i havent seen blood + in some time.

OHSHI-
High ecchiness factor detected, danger level to system is RED class! DANGER!
Nope. That's not it.
looks like a random CG art collection pic.. i wouldnt have assumed it was to anything
Forgot about this thread. This pic is from something, you just need to guess. I'll give you a hint; It's both a game and a series.
Whut, like something out of Key / KyoAni?
Quickly use your braincells in rapid succession to take down this problem!
WUT THAT WAS RANDOM
hmmm
Somehow I get the feeling Kitsune -> Motoko -> Kanon...but that can't be right since that's ZETTAI not Motoko.
Was that a guess?
Err...If it was the right answer, it MIGHT have been... :P
No, sorry. Are you guys going to give up?
I give up! o__o
I YIELD!!! >-<
It's from Shuffle!
So who posts one now that you guys gave up?
Someone can post another pic if they want. Should I post another?
Yes! Post us another!
a challenger appears!!
(http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/8829/fullno6.jpg)
I know of this series! It is Kiddy Grade!
Can you guess?
(http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q226/OtakuMask/Anime/SDK.jpg)
I looks too much like a real shinigami to be bleach.
Well you can tell that it's not Bleach, but can you tell what it is?
Samurai Deeper Kyou
Ding! Siya is the winna! Though I do not believe there is a u at the end.
I guess the English publications use some other romanization than I do, dropping either the macron or circumflex accent. ã,ョã,¦ (from the title) and ç‹, (the title character's name) are both (in wÄpuro rÅmaji) Kyou. In the Hepburn romanization, they would be KyÅ.
Either way, guess this one!
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v296/MarcandSiya/HY.jpg)
Looks like a guy from Real Bout High School...
But it's not!
Or IS IT?
YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!!!
It's not, but it looks kind of like someone I know from Gurren-Lagann.
But it's not! XD
So, I'm guessing I have to reveal the answer and try a new pic?
Yup. We're too lazy for you ^-^;
Alright. That's from The Law of Ueki.
Now try this:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v296/MarcandSiya/Dont_Cheat.jpg)
The redhaired kid reminds me of Kenshin...
-steals Siya's line- But it's not!
He has a marionette arm...? o3o I am interested.
*bouncebouncebounce*
More guesses?
Ham-man from hamcannon.com?
Never heard of it. ;014
Well the link is right there to explore.
Upon further deliberation and research...
I have no freakin' idea.
It's been over a week, so the answer is....Ayatsuri Sakon!
Next, try this one:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v296/MarcandSiya/MeetingSeaBreezeTeam.jpg)
Oh, god, it looks like Fighting Foodons. -dies-
I've always wanted to see Fighting Foodons...but, no. That is not the answer.

So, is there really no chance of anyone getting this one, either?
Doesn't seem like it ^^;
Unless it is Doug, I have no clue as to this one.
...is it Doug?
I think we fail again...
DOOOUUGGGGGGGG
Added after 17 seconds:
>_>
You do fail! D:<
Also, what is this Doug you speak of? The Nickelodeon cartoon?
I dunno, I just joined in for teh lulz. -w-
Too bad I don't have moviemaker in this XP install...
Could've made some tricky screens...
I was talking about the Nick toon Doug. ~chikapepah~
So, are you going to post a new screenshot Siya?
That last one was Kamichu! A rather wonderful story. I liked it muchly.
Next, we have:

I'm not doin' any more after this. D:<
SERIOUSLY THAT LOOKS SHOOP'D Õ_Õ
Disclaimer: Image has never touched Photoshop.
I know, heh ^^
But still, seriously. Those EYES look SO shoopd. Or rather, the entire face. It just looks...incredibly out of place.
Not to me...
*waves questions and comments of authenticity aside*
So...anybody know where it's from?
...Doraemon o.o
* runs away *
Nnnnnnno!
Agh damnit. Google gives me nothing.
This is why we can't have nice things ~_~
Not to complain but, I think you're killing this thread a bit with your Expert-level questions >_>
Then *tag* I tag you to be the next person to try to stump us, Nejin.
If it's not answered correctly within the week, post something new and I'll get around to the real answer. Sound good? :D
...I'm terrible,
I just think of Kino's Journey...
Mrawr, sounds grrate like grratin. -w-
You mean like in the episode where the one town had a tradition of making up new traditions?
Oh, and no. Not Kino's Journey.
* waves pom poms * Good luck guys!
No, the episode of Kino's Journey when Kino finds the caravan stuck in the snow... and you had mentioned lazers so... that one scene... with the bunny...
Siya, where do you find these things?!
I thought I got close to finding out, but after further research, I was apparently wrong. :c
Yeah the pages are getting filled with wrong guesses here... we need more guessable anime pics...
QuoteNo, the episode of Kino's Journey when Kino finds the caravan stuck in the snow... and you had mentioned lazers so... that one scene... with the bunny...
Oh...that would be beyond hilarious if this image appeared in that scene! XD
QuoteSiya, where do you find these things?!
様ã€...ãªå ´æ‰€
But, really:
1.
The Law of Ueki - Currently licensed in the USA. I had picked up a bit of the manga when I was in Japan and wanted to see what the anime was like.
2.
Ayatsuri Sakon - I discovered this anime while looking for information on an anime I saw during my childhood, but I couldn't remember its name (though, I now know it to be
Unico: In the Island of Magic). I had been searching for anime with puppets as a major theme. This came up and I was interested. I was finally able to watch it, recently.
3.
Kamichu! - A friend pointed me to this one. I liked it a lot.
4.
????????? - I had heard that this one was getting made, a little while back, and thought, "
Oh, god! They didn't
!" But they did!
Hey, anwsers... :D
Rocco's Modern Life? IS THAT IT?
Naaah can't be it...
Unless Rocco was doing a lot of acid in that episode... :D
no
Alright, the deadline is up. The answer is Animal Crossing the movie!
Nejin, you're up!
Well, since Nej hasn't posted anything yet...
I'll sneak an easy one in... :D
[attachment deleted by admin]
There are doll joints, but it's certainly not Rozen Maiden. Is it from GITS?
close....so very close.... I'll leave it hanging for a bit longer to see is someone can get it more accurately....
Well, GITS2? You say close, I know it's not from the first GITS movie, so I'm gonna guess the second even though it's been a long while since I watched it last. Or maybe something else from Production I.G. Only other thing that comes to mind is Ergo Proxy, but I don't think that's a commonly watched anime.
GITS 2 it is.....
*grabs mic*
NEXT!!! Pic plz... :D
All rightie. What's this then?
(http://aycu37.webshots.com/image/42396/2000497573255009541_rs.jpg)
eep!
eeeehmmmmm......
Hey look over there!!!
*runs away to find someone with moar anime-knowledge*
Hint: Series is about a guy who travels to an island and has to live together with 13 girls.
Oh well lets just make a list of every harem anime...
SWEETBABEEJEEZUSHOLYMOTHEROFCORNWRYYYYYY!?!?
This could take a while...
It's from 2001. All the 13 girls call the guy "big brother", but each in their own peculiar way. The title contains a word related to royalty. I don't know what else to say. Oh, and it got a second season later.
Well it's getting a bit easier to diagnose what anime it is now that we have more symptoms.... :D
But it's still a reversed search, wich makes it hard... :D
Why am I comparing this to Zettai Karen Children?
Because you know anime, and it could be correct?
No. Zettai Karen Children sucks, and this sounds like it has some potential. Besides, it's airing now.
Whatever this is, it is not Zettai Karen Children.
I'll have to agree with you, Nejin. That anime is packed full of fail.
Wait, the master of impossible-to-guess-animes doesn't even know?!
Either that or I'm refusing to guess for fear I may be stuck with the task of choosing what you guys have to puzzle over next. ^^
LOL, oh yeah thats right... :D
I think you just add a 2 in with my 1 and 0
-Dos, Meow
Waaah. This is boooooooooring. So I'm just gonna say it's Sister Princess and you can get on with posting a new one. =P

You probably wouldn't believe it if i said it... :D
Hm. But wait. Musketeer, or something, maybe. And looks fairly new, too.
How 'bout Les Miserables?
HOH!!! but still no
Romeo × Juliet
Added after 38 seconds:
Thanks for the hijack, by the way! You're a life saver! :D
WOW!!! You're right... ;010
But, how did you know?! I was baffled at the idea that someone'd turn R&J into an anime, a movie (the one with Leonardo diCabrio) i could understand...
When I first heard of it (last year), I was somewhat shocked that it was going to be a series as well. However, I had just seen The Count of Monte Cristo adapted into a futuristic anime series (Gankutsuo)....so Romeo × Juliet wasn't that much of a stretch, I guess.
I still haven't seen it, though. I've been hoping to, someday.
Only seen ep1 so far, but although they took some liberties, it's pretty good...

EXTREME GENDER SEGREGATION.
is the m_m in the filename a clue too?
No u!
Shoot, all i could think of was mermaid melody, when i saw that
I think we have lost this round.

I thought it would be easy...tji fick jag. ^^
So, who posts the next one?
I will since no one else bothers.

This is rather easy, I hope.
(http://www.mangarevolution.com/_jpg/userimages_full/15437.jpg) Okay, i need someone to tell me what this comes from. Someone on Mangarevolution posted a real small version of it and claimed they drew it. I need to know what anime its from since it quite obviously came from a screen shot.
Once again I am able to undershoot expectations and fail at this game!
Weee
So is anyone else going to be solving this riddle?
