ANALOGIES (round five)

May 19, 2009 13:54

According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, an analogy is "a resemblance in some particulars between things otherwise unlike". It's a way to compare two things, and these were all to common on the SAT a few years ago. Now, though obsolete on the standardized test, they're a good way to test your knowledge of a subject and see the comparisons between them. So let's apply this to anime, manga, and video games!

For example: "Kon is to lion as Mieu is to ______."

The correct answer would be Cheagle because the comparison between the two characters is what kind of "animal" they are. The two characters in the analogy will at least be from decks in the game, but they're not always going to be obvious things!

Hotohori is to Brightance is to Mu is to ______.

The correct answer gets you 2 random cards. This round is closed on 5/26 now!.

Last round was "Albert is to Dumas as Juliet is to Shakespeare." because the comparison is to the the author of their story of origin. Albert de Morcerf is from Gankutsuou and Juliet Capulet is from Romeo X Juliet.
