This Friday was Detective Animé Day. There was also a warning about Pocky crumbs, since it's the first time that we've had a nice room in...ever. Yeah.

SO! Animé we watched:

Detective Conan (some kinda special): Good SUPER EP, but really, I got a tad bored after like the tenth eyecatch. I'm sure some age regression fetishists get a real kick outta ( Read more... )

Keh. It didn't remember my draft. Oh well ( Read more... )

Welcome, everyone, to the LUC Animé Club's new semester! Today's meeting started with introductions; I think I made a few new friends. ^_^ Lots of Death Note fans, I noticed, as well as quite a few CLAMP and Shounen Jump Big 4 fans. For those of you who do not know the Big 4, here's a list:

Naruto
Bleach
One Piece
Prince of Tennis

Why Prince of ( Read more... )

There was an event at the Osaka Garden in Chicago. Apparently Osaka is one of Chicago's sister cities, so we have a garden and an animé night in honor of that. I first heard of it in my Japanese class, but since my teacher endorses the Animé Club as well, some folks from that came, too.

OK. I don't know why I forgot to do this. Pretty much, all we did was watch the end of Kino's Journey. Then, there was a party that I couldn't attend because I don't want to pick up some of the more unsavory habits of nerds had to catch a train. It rained on me. A lot.

Kino's Journey (9-13): Wow. Just...Wow. Atlantis and Pompeii. That family was ( Read more... )

All we did this animé club was have people show off their stuff for "elections" (seriously, there was no actual voting!), and watched 6 eps of Kino's Journey. It's pretty awesome stuff, but here's an even LONGER rant about it!

~So Kino really is a chick. Even characters within the series mistake her for a guy, so I don't feel so bad now.

~Oh, you ( Read more... )

Got T-shirt money. Got Slayers Try on DVD. Still need the pics and text FOR the shirts.

Kino's Journey (The Beautiful World): Such a weird, yet awesome, series. I LOL'd that a town was using an emo poetry book as a holy text.  I heard a lot of WTF remarks about this.

Kindaichi Case Files (Smoke & Mirrors): I'm a fan of murder mysteries, so of ( Read more... )

The PowerPoint at the start of this was hilarious. I never knew that mecha series actually had phases, the relative sizes of mecha, nor that "Hot Blood" was fairly recent. The Gundam we saw seemed...SO OLD! XD Like, old enough that the quality seemed crappy, but not nearly as crappy as the previous 3. What's funny is that I could tell which series ( Read more... )

Without further ado...

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (eps...11-14?): Awesome. I <3 the song "God Knows," and apparently dream waves look a lot like Windows Media Player visualizations. Also finally saw the origin of "Nyoro~n" comics. Good stuff, Haruhi is; the eyes in that series are SO well-done! Not shiny like Claymore eyes, but...Still damn ( Read more... )

You'll see what I mean ( Read more... )
