I thought this was a beginners zine? There are so many people who have been in loads that got accepted.
Hi anon, we are a beginner-friendly zine and we prioritized beginners when accepting contributors. However, as specified in our guidelines, we are not a beginners-only zine, so we were not excluding seasoned contributors and offered them some of the slots that were left to fill. Hope this answers your question!

When asked how many OP zines we have been apart of, does that mean for the role we are applying to or any role we have been apart of in zines?
It means any role as a contributor, yes!

If an artist is not allowed to participate if they are younger than fifteen because I would really like to Participate but thirteen so would I do and do you know of any one piece zines that take artists my age? Thank you for your time ☺️
We’re okay with you applying for the zine even though you’re thirteen, (please specify it in the comments when/if you apply), since it's a non-profit SFW project, but even though we will make sure that the space is entirely SFW and safe for minors, please make your parents or legal guardians aware before applying that you’re joining an online project space with adults in it and that they can reach out to us anytime if there's any problem. Thank you for your interest! 💛🐾

Hello! What's the standing for minks? Do they fall into the animal category enough to be included in this zine?
We will clarify it soon in our IC results graphics, but minks will be treated as characters, not animals in the zine—this means that like the other characters, they can be part of your piece, but should not be the focus, (one or several animals should be the focus).

For the application.. do you wish a animal drawing as a skill reference or is a normal drawing like the favorite drawing allowed? Thanks for the answer and i cant wait for the application phase. :)
Animal drawings are of course super welcome since this is an OP animals-focused zine, but not required; normal drawings are completely allowed!

Since this is a beginner-friendly zine, will there still be guests who are invited?
Yes, since we’re a beginner-friendly zine, we will be inviting guests who have been in 2 or less One Piece zines!

So like, does the zine focuses on the interaction between characters and animals or just animals? Also is it more on bizarre ones like banana crocodile or would crocodile with a puppy (from that op cover art) suffice?
Hi, both animal interactions & animal-character interactions will be shown in the zine, with a main focus on the animal. All One Piece animals are fair game, from more bizarre ones to the more normal ones, (e.g. ChouChou the dog). However, in your example, crocodile with a puppy would not suffice since the focus is on crocodile. Hope this makes sense & thank you for the question!
