If you sub on the old content you should get only the Japanese genre badge when you reach 300 subs/segs and YES it doesnāt appear to be a part of the SUBATHON 
@irmar @simi11 Thank you, I didnāt realize that. Well if that is really the case that would be awfully unfair because they are so few of them
check this page, only three I believe are really new

Thank you everyone for your inquiries and feedback, and weāre happy that youāre excited for the return of Japanese titles! We will be looking to bring in more opportunities for sub-a-thons and badges as we introduce more Japanese content.

Dear Camille,
did you receive my report (#341246) about a hoarder moderator?
This person has 57 projects out of which only 3 completed.
Including 4 on-air dramas, yet completely untouched and without a team, although in half of them there are more than 20 episodes already released.
Why Iām mentioning this here? Because I see she has asked and got moderation in one of these Japanese projects.
Why are these people allowed and encouraged here on Viki?
P.S. The report was only 6 days ago, so I wouldnāt expect viki staff to address it so soon, but when I saw that this person is even hereā¦
We have a saying, in Greek, about a person, āNo matter which stone you lift, s/heāll be under itā

I remember reading somewhere that it was only new Japanese titles but couldnāt find where.
We can find it in the QC newsletters they just sent in your linked address email:

Iām sure no harm was intended, but this is just a gentle reminder that the abbreviation āJapā for Japanese is generally considered to be offensive.

Hi @camiille. Iām discovering this.

We had the same thing @
I Am Reiko Shiratori! - Shiratori Reiko de Gozaimasu! and I was wondering about that too since we segged as soon as it was uploaded and that was before November 3.

No answer to our question, but I can see that they didnāt give us the badge. You made more than 1000 segments and I made 725 segments and 189 subs and we got nothing, while someone who only made 260 subs got it.

That was fast getting the badges out. It doesnāt seem fair that our segments and subtitles donāt count since they were all on the designated channels listed. It isnāt our fault that they uploaded them before the start date. There was such a limited amount to work on for top 50 segmenters. There should be some response to this overlook on their part. It shouldnāt have been uploaded before the beginning of the time then if it wouldnāt count. Please give a response @camiille

In Vikiās defense, they did clearly state at the beginning that the subathon would run from November 3 through the 10th. Having said that, Iām in complete agreement with fizban and bjohnsonwong that it made no sense to make the eligible shows available for two days prior to the start of the subathon. The net effect was to delay work on those shows for most of the contributors, since early contributions wouldnāt be counted toward the badge. Perhaps there was some method to the madness, but in the absence of that, I would strongly suggest that in the future, subathons such as this one be aligned with the availability of the shows.

Hi how can be earn this prize?
Hello everyone,
Thank you for providing your thoughts and concerns for this sub-a-thon.
I wanted to address the feedback weāve received in regards to the timing of the sub-a-thon.
We decided to provide a two-day leeway to allow channel teams to form. This was something we took into consideration because itās been a while since we added Japanese titles to Viki, thus we wanted to allow additional time for channel teams to recruit.
Since the launch of these titles, weāve been blown away by all of your work and the enthusiasm that you brought! Weāre very happy to see that and canāt wait to bring even more Japanese titles to you. Weāll keep in mind all the points you have raised as we create future sub-a-thons and badge opportunities. Should a similar sub-a-thon and titles launch event happen, weāll do our best to have them start at the same time.
While we understand that there are channel team members who contributed between Nov. 1-2, we will be honoring the application of the badge to users who contributed during the time period on the original announcement.
Thanks again!
Best,
Camille
