Japanese crossword #5608

If you need the title to figure out what it is then it's a bad puzzle. How come this one didn't go through the not rated system?

Those are harsh words, ggg; what if it was done by a 6 year old child - he may now need therapy for the rest of his life...

Its an okay puzzle, but picture is a problem. Pretty but could be anything without the title

Given the small size of the grid, the fact that only two colours are used, and the limited number of coloured tiles, I found this puzzle to be imaginative and enjoyable

I had absolutely no idea what the picture was until the title was revealed; my thought while solving was a pair of shields.

It is Ok to say that a picture is not good. In all honesty, this could just be a jumble of colors and shapes. It's still a valid puzzle, but the whole point of nonograms is that they make pictures. So, based on that, this was not entirely enjoyable; the reward for finishing the puzzle wasn't worth the effort.

Basically I do puzzles just because I want to improve my logic and my reasoning which can be useful elsewhere, so I am satisfied if I solve them regardless of what the pictures are. But FellHarbor is right, otherwise I could always make Sudoku (that I personally hate) :)

Hate to disagree with most of you, but I enjoyed doing this! Sometimes the most fun with the very simple puzzles is seeing how someone can actually make a design that small - and seeing what is a neat geometric pattern with a title that makes sense, well, I think that's a couple of minutes well spent, and minutes that made me use some brain cells (always good!)

I really don't see why there needs to be THIS MUCH discussion on a 10x10, a minute long puzzle really isn't worth fussing over

I loved it!

Once you read the title you cannot not see the picture. Therefore, the picture with its small space is good.

Even in a small space it can sometimes be hard to make these solvable and look like something. I think it's a nice puzzle.

Isn't that the only kind of mittens there are? :)

@ Helmi: PolNOvik isn't a 6-year-old child, I suppose. Children are often good intuitive artists, but nonograms are another kind of stuff... What we see here is an early work of one of the best nonograms artists! So we can see: Masters don't fall from the sky. (Old german saw)

PolNOvik puzzles are always delightful.

Nice pair of mittens

FFS you people are awfully critical of some of these puzzles...

Nice, easy and enjoyable

Clever and pretty

I think they match.

I actually found it difficult for a 10 by 10, and I like the picture BECAUSE it can be anything.

i kinda like it and happen to be listening to Dirty Projectors right now...iykyk

they make me want to get cozy with a good hot-chocolate!! <3 :3

I try to figure out what the picture is before I look at the title. Sometimes I need the title to see it. On this one I was able to see two mittens before I checked the title. (I was a little surprised, I sometimes see something other than what the author intended.)

Spasibo PonNOvik. You are an artist. :)

Couldn't really tell without the title but it's cute anyway.
