The Gauntlet
The Gauntlet is an AnimeFest tradition and THE main event! It is a competition that consists of 4 challenges: the Human Knot, Anime Charades, an Onigiri Eating contest, and a Ramune Drinking contest. Sounds easy? Think again! Players have to endure much hardship to survive each challenge, but the
toughest of you all will be
rewarded prizes. (Plus free
ramune sounds pretty good,
doesn't it?) Think you are up
for the challenge? See the
Gauntlet page for full details
of how the event's going down
and come prepared!
