Thanks, @Marku!

This issue has been reported to the developers to fix, although it’s been a little while so I just pinged them again to check in on it.

Here’s the post where the problem was originally reported:

It seems the .zip dataset has been removed from the source website.

# Download Anime Face dataset to `data` folder
if not os.path.isdir('data/animeface-character-dataset'):
    !wget http://www.nurs.or.jp/~nagadomi/animeface-character-dataset/data/animeface-character-dataset.zip
    !unzip animeface-character-dataset.zip -d data

Gives the following assertion error:
