Don't link through google as it is a search engine. Set the link to the exact site.

there's a new change in the Map Submission Rules

The use of external materials is only permitted if the terms / license under which they are released allows it, or it can be classified asFair Use.

• Any material created by Blizzard Entertainment can safely be used, as long as the target game is owned by Blizzard Entertainment.
• If they are released without terms / license, having permission from the author is preferred but not required, because the original author has full rights to have it removed.
• The Hive Workshop deems the usage of copyrighted material in maps Fair Use as long as the map does not take value away from the source (e.g. a game) and the usage is non-profitable.

i changed the link, now it directly link to the site ^

there's a new change in the

"In its most general sense, a fair use is any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work."
However, it does not mention any other forms of usage like free fun creativity.

"Any material created by Blizzard Entertainment can safely be used, as long as the target game is owned by Blizzard Entertainment."
This only applies to what is Blizzard Entertainment related. I doubt the anime content in your map is linked to that company.

"If they are released without terms / license, having permission from the author is preferred but not required, because the original author has full rights to have it removed."
This is your scapegoat. Let's say you can actually do this until the author of said resources has something to say (as if they are going to search for this), but you should provide specified credits. What game/author are the resources (all of them) from?

While I agree you should give credits too the original creators of the models (in the games where they appear and such) I think that there's almost no way you will make profit from this map (which is Fair Use for the HWS, @deepstrasz the rules quoted say it)
Will wait until you do that (add credits too original authors) before checking out the map itself.
Nice screenshots BTW.

Pretty good template for an anime map.

i did give credit for the game company, the model creator (Original Artist), the art director (The mangaka), up there ^

Well, that makes the template pretty much approvable.
Here is the score
4/5
Reasoning:
Fantastic display of terrain skills, perfect for an anime map. There just this problem... it only works for an anime map. In my personal opinion this of course limits the use of this resource, as anime style doesn't go too well with non-anime style models. Never the less, this is still a very good terrain template.

Approved!

what?

 

[GreatOneAce]

what?

I mean the paradise.engineering and GreatVengeance's name written in the credits is the same person with different accounts/names, so the credits should be remove neither paradise.engineering nor GreatVengeance's name or at least combine the names together.

Well it's not that great of a thing. I'll let it pass.
