This week, we will begin previewing the season’s new anime! We will spend this Friday and the next sampling several new series before sending out a survey to determine which anime we’ll follow for the rest of the term.

Warm up your vocal cords: this week’s activity is one of the club’s all-time favorites- Karaoke Night! To ensure that everyone gets a chance to sing, we will be using a simple queuing system on the chalkboard and limiting each person to one or two songs until everyone has had a turn. All skill levels are accepted; you do NOT need to be a professional to participate! Need a partner (or partners) to sing a certain song with you? Try asking on our Facebook Group!

Friday, October 4th in BUCH A104
5:00 – 6:30 : Fall Season Anime Previews
6:30 – 7:00 : Dinner Break

Since the Fall season of anime hasn’t started airing yet, we’ll be watching a short movie: Millennium Actress!

After dinner break, join us again in Buchanan for Gaming Night, an evening dedicated to video games. There will be a PS3 with Rock Band, a Wii with Super Smash Bros Brawl and Mario Kart, and a DDR machine set up with a variety of anime, Vocaloid, and classic arcade DDR songs! If you have a Nintendo DS, bring it to join in on our Multiplayer Mario Kart game, or bring your Pokemon team to scout out new friends to battle and trade with! The consoles are separated by room but you are encouraged to try everything!
