Extremely Hard Anime Quiz

Win a PlayStation 5 at the EXTREMELY HARD take-home anime quiz! This is a multiple-choice, open-book, take-home quiz that begins on the FanimeCon website three weeks before the convention. Look up anything you want to get the answers. The questions are so hard that you probably will not know any of the answers from memory. Instead, you will need to do research into real-world topics such as art, geography, history, literature, music, and science.
