achievements.md

All genre-based achievements have four levels. Max level images for these are similar to each other - black background, white glow, and a simple symbol at the center. Count-based badges have 12 levels, and score-based have three pseudo-levels. There are some other special badges awarded for achieving something big. In total, we have over 100 images that make you want to watch more anime or read more manga.

If you're curious about titles that count towards certain badges, read these files, but note that some genre-based achievements have their title list generated automatically from genres on myanimelist.net. These can also have additional titles added manually, to fill up genre holes left by myanimelist.net (e.g. sequel to a historical anime isn't tagged as such).

Thresholds for (most) anime genres are 25 titles for level 1, 40 for level 2, 60 for level 3 and 100 for the maximum level. Manga thresholds (and anime mahou shoujo) are 15, 30, 50 and 80. The romance badges have increased thresholds (40, 70, 100 and 150), since this genre tag is ubiquitous.

	**Love me or die** Yandere is a form of love too. A rather extreme one, but still!
	**Breaking the chains** With love, nothing is impossible. You just have to let someone break you free of restrictions.
	**Heart that never stops beating** When I see you, my kokoro goes doki-doki and the sekai starts to spin around. How could I live without you?
