This week’s special activity is a Cosplay Workshop. The cosplayers running the workshop are club members, as well as veterans with plenty of advice for cosplayers of all levels. Convention etiquette and creating, buying, and maintaining cosplay will be covered. This workshop will certainly be helpful for the upcoming Halloween Social and Akimatsuri convention!

The Winter season of anime has finally begun! The next two showings, starting with this one, will give you a chance to see what currently airing series you would like to see. Afterwards, you, the members, can decide which shows we continue to watch! Keep checking back here for an updated list of what we will watch this Friday!

This week’s activity is an anime club classic, Karaoke. You can sing anything you want, though most members prefer to sing J-pop or Vocaloid songs. We will have two microphones, so you can even do a duet! We will be using a queue system on the chalkboard to decide who sings what next. You can choose music from any internet source, with or without vocals.

Until the new season starts (early-mid October), we will watch shows that members requested when they filled out the surveys at our icebreaker. Please be respectful when watching anime in the club; others may not have seen the series yet. Membership will be available at the showing, or any of our weekly showings if you haven’t had the chance to purchase it yet. Speak to our Treasurer, Ivy.
