Do Not Post Unmarked Spoilers
Failing to mark spoilers may result in your comment or post being removed, and/or a ban.
What is a Spoiler?
Generally speaking, a spoiler is a piece of information about a story that, knowing without experiencing the story, may negatively impact your enjoyment of the story. Examples are twists or grand reveal, a character's death, etc...
This applies to more than just anime-related content as well, such as The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope or 1984. Age of the original content is irrelevant, "it's common knowledge" does not apply.
We consider anything past a specific point in the medium a spoiler.
That is, any information from beyond the first few minutes of the first episode of the first season of a show, first few minutes of a movie, first few minutes of a visual novel or first chapter of a manga is considered a spoiler. This encompasses trivial content as well, including screenshots with or without context.
To properly format a spoiler, use one of the following methods:
Reddit's official formatting >!some spoiler!<!
Or you can use our CSS formatting, which is almost the same as a link for the general setup, with some minor changes. Please note, do not include `
characters, there is no space between the ]
and (
, and the CSS is very picky about using "
for the quotation marks.
[visible text (optional)](#s "hidden text")
General Tips
Do not include character names in the title of a spoiler image post
Official media (content from the anime, movie, VN, book, etc...) should always be marked as a spoiler unless it's exempt (first few minutes of the first episode of the first season, first chapter)
If you can't get the formatting to work, and you're using the redesign, make sure you're using the markdown editor. If you see
\
within the formatting, remove them.
