The competitions

Subtitle Competition

Round 1 of our inaugural subtitle competition is now closed. Thank you to everyone who has entered our first subtitle competition! There were great entries and we’re having a hard time deciding the winners.

The winners for both card images will be announced at the start of Week 6, along with the opening of Round 2 with new ‘raw stills’. The winners will be receiving a new membership card with their winning subtitles captioned to the relevant images!

Visit our art competition page to view the subtitle submissions of Round 1.

The Name Game Competition

While some have that special knack to remember other people’s names, most of us just have that gut-feeling that that face is so familiar. SUAnime now has a new competition to put our memory skills to the test for some procrastinating fun and awesome prizes!

Earn points by correctly identifying the anime and character in a series of screen captures to win some Kinokuniya vouchers and club merchandise and tickets.

Register by sending an email to competition@suanime.org. The competition is FREE to both members and non-members (although only members can win the major prizes). Registration closes at the end of Week 6.

For more information about the competition, buzz Sindy at competition@suanime.org too.

To give you all a taste of the competition, here are some screen shots of a selection from old and familiar anime. Name the anime and character. For a bonus point, identify who’s eye the last one belongs to, too!
