Starting today, we’re kicking off a monthly contest feature here at Anime Diet! We want to see your talents and your humor, dear readers. And to entice you, we’ve got a whole slew of different small prizes we can give out, and we’re in the process of building more of our prize pool. This one is simple: using only an unmodified screencap from any episode of School Days, create a “Demotivational Poster” with a witty title and caption. You can use the Despair, Inc.’s poster generator here to do it. Send your entry to contests@animediet.net, or post a link to your entry in the comments section, for a chance to win a full-resolution DVD version of the Anime Diet Anime Expo 2007 video diary!
The deadline for submission is the same worldwide, and since I’m an egotistical self-centered American, it’s timed to be most convenient for me! It’s one week from now, basically.
- Saturday, Oct 6, 9:30 PM Pacific Standard Time
- Sunday, Oct 7, 9:30 AM Taiwan/Singapore Time
- Sunday, Oct 7, 04:30 GMT (sorry UK readers; consider it due on Saturday night for you!)
Detailed Rules:
- Send entries by email to contests@animediet.net, or post a link to the pic in the comments section of this post.
- One entry per person, please.
- Please keep the entry at “R” rated standard. We reserve the right to disqualify entries for being overly offensive. (Yes, we know, given this show…but still.)
- The screencap should be unmodified (ie, no Photoshopping or adding or splicing).
- The DVD will be mailed to the winner. Any location is fine; we will cover the cost.
- We are looking for funny. The winner will be the one that makes us laugh the hardest.
With that…demotivate us away! We look forward to seeing your entries.
Just handed in my entry. Commenting here in case it gets lost in spam or something.
Can we use related stuff other than screencaps (i.e. magazine scans, screenshots from the game)?
Aya Reiko, go ahead and use some related screencaps from the game or from magazines, as long as they’re unmodified by Photoshop or other programs. The spirit of the contest is to take existing material and come up with a witty title and caption. Thanks for asking!
Owen S – we got your excellent entry! Thanks for submitting!
I sent mine in to (well I few days ago); but yeah same reason as Owen in case it gets lost in spam.
Shadro – yep. We have already received it and thank you for your excellent entry!

Casey Burnett – we received your poster! Thank you!
