This event has ended. Its final dates are kept here for the record.
When it runs
Sep 16 – Sep 24 to Oct 30 – Nov 5
Aniimo-America runs on UTC-4, fixed all year. Windows open and close at 04:00 server time.
What Who’s That Aniimo? is
Each round posts one silhouette showing only the mystery Aniimo’s distinctive features. Photographing other Aniimo that share those features reveals the hidden parts, so a wrong guess still moves you forward.
Submitting a photo of the right species in the right form completes the topic. Doing it before the silhouette is fully revealed pays an extra Aniimo Observation Reward on top.
The round itself lasts a week or more, but claims and their mail settle on the 04:00 reset, which is why an answer submitted late in the evening pays out the next server day.

How to take part
- Read the silhouetteOnly the distinctive features are shown. Everything else is masked until you photograph something that shares a feature, and clue milestones pay at 1, 3 and 5 reveals.
- Photograph anything that matches a featureYour own Aniimo, another player’s Aniimo and wild Aniimo across Idyll all count.
- Submit the exact formForm matters. A photo of the right species in the wrong form does not complete the topic.
- Use the album shortcutAn existing photo that meets the topic requirements can be submitted straight from your album, so an old shot of the answer finishes the round instantly.

Tumbler1 at 3 clues revealed
Wonder Egg1 at 5 clues revealed- Aniimo Observation RewardBonus for answering before the full reveal
The best line of play
- Check your album first. If you already photographed the answer during ordinary play, the whole round takes one submission.
- Do not shoot inside the Holo-Battle Sim or a Sanctum. Those Aniimo are holographic projections and sealed respectively, and the game will not recognise the photo at all.
- Reveal clues even after you know the answer. The milestones at 1, 3 and 5 clues pay Glimmer, a Tumbler and a Wonder Egg regardless of when you submit.
- The 100 Sparkling Crystals per round are the real prize: four rounds is 400, and a Sparkling Cube costs 1,000.
