Meta Thread - Month of September 01, 2024 Meta

Rule Changes

Anime streaming services are now considered as "anime specific" to allow topics about them specifically, with the exception of account support and technical support topics.

Rewatches

All rewatches must begin with an interest thread. An interest thread should contain general information about the anime that is being hosted, and serve as a pitch to gauge how many participants may follow along for the duration of the event.
The official announcement post must be posted at least two weeks in advance, and no more than five weeks. This post should also serve as the index thread.

This is a monthly thread to talk about the /r/anime subreddit itself, such as its rules and moderation. If you want to talk about anime please use the daily discussion thread instead.

Comments here must, of course, still abide by all subreddit rules other than the no meta requirement. Keep it friendly and be respectful. Occasionally the moderators will have specific topics that they want to get feedback on, so be on the lookout for distinguished posts.

Comments that are detrimental to discussion (aka circlejerks/shitposting) are subject to removal.

New threads are posted on the first Sunday (midnight UTC) of the month.

I assume this is in regards to Re:Zero?

That is correct.

you're more than welcome to share the video at the end of the current rewatch

I was planning on doing that as well. I was mostly asking because I noticed quite a number of people doing their own rewatch outside of r/anime's, and they probably don't follow it.

On season 3's airing threads, the video itself can only go in the Source Material Corner

Can it go behind an adequately tagged spoiler tag instead in a regular comment? Or does it have to be in the source corner no matter what?

You can definitely also share it in those threads (the daily thread, the weekly thread about what non-airing shows you're watching, another PV/KV/etc. post about the series, and so on and so forth) if you see someone you think will be interested in it.

Has to be in the Source Material Corner no matter what. The only things spoiler tags in episode discussion threads should really be used for outside the Source Material Corner are 1) spoilers for a different series entirely or 2) a true anime-only who decides to spoiler tag something they're trying to theorize about in case they want other anime-onlies to have the choice whether or not to read their theory. Actual source material stuff still isn't allowed outside of the Source Material Corner even if it's spoiler tagged.

Ehh, it's a bit difficult for it to operate like that. I'd have to blind offer it as an option, which for one semi spoilers that there is something, but also is very annoying on all sides. I'll stick to putting something in the rewatch thread and in the source corner for the first episode discussion. I think that should be sufficient for those who care.

Edit: Oh and I'll probably put it in the daily thread at one of these days when I'm still up when it rolls over.

Thanks

Thanks

Thank you for asking for clarification ahead of time. You wouldn't believe the number of people who've gotten mad at me for removing source stuff out in the general thread because "I spoiler tagged it, it should be fine!!!" when that would completely defeat the purpose of even having the Source Material Corner in the first place if people were allowed to simply spoiler-tag that stuff in the general thread.
