Hey everyone, the next meeting (5/13) is in Morrill N329 again, and it's our last of the semester, so we'll be doing the voting for stuff to watch next semester. Be sure and show up if you want to have a say in what we're watching (if you forgot, the stuff we're voting on is in the newspost below this one). Other than that, since we've already finished watching our main stuff, after the voting it'll be a total open showing! We'll be watching 2 episodes of 5 different anime, so bring in lots of stuff.
I'd also like to let everyone know that we'll be having a marathon on Saturday the 17th (5/17), also in Morrill N329. Here's the lineup for you (or click the link above to see our pretty flyer):
12:00 - 1:30 Clannad Movie
1:30 - 4:45 Photon: The Idiot Adventures
4:45 - 6:00 I Can Hear The Sea
6:00 - 7:00 Dinner
7:00 - 9:00 Brave Story
9:00 - 11:00 Patlabor WXIII
Sure, you could spend the day studing for finals....OR you could spend it watching anime with us!

This week's meeting is in Morrill N329, and boy is it an important one. This week we'll be doing officer's elections, so come vote for the people you want running the club next year. Additionally, later that night, right after the last episode of Gunsliger Girls and in place of the open showing, we'll be showing the first episodes of the 7 anime up for vote to watch next semester. We'll only end up watching two of them, so it'd be wise to come and see what you're voting for is like. The 7 anime are:
Claymore
Genshiken (seasons 1 & 2)
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
Kurau: Phantom Memory
Princess Tutu
School Rumble
Utawarerumono
The actual voting for the anime won't take place until the following week (5/12), but again, this is your chance to see what the stuff you're voting for is like, so don't miss it!

The meeting this week is back in our usual spot, Morrill N329. I suppose I should mention that tomorrow we'll be watching the last episode of Nerima Daikon Brothers, but Busou Renkin and Gunslinger Girls we'll finish up next week cuz they're slightly longer. After tomorrow, Nerima will being going straight into the library, so if you missed any episodes and wanna see them, you'll have two weeks to come and take them out and watch before the library closes for the semester.
I also wanna remind everyone that next week, at the meeting on May 6, we'll be having the elections for new officers, so be sure to show up to the business meeting to vote. Also on that night, in place of the open showing, we'll be showcasing the first episodes of the 7 anime that will be up for vote to watch next semester. The actual voting on them won't happen till the week after, but if you wanna have an idea of what it is you're voting for, you should come and watch. We'll announce the list of stuff up for vote at the meeting tomorrow and it'll be posted to the website after that.

Hey all, unfortunatly we don't know what room we're in this week yet, and we probably won't find out until Tuesday at this point (damn school), but we'll let you all know via the mailing list the second we find out.
I also wanna remind everyone that on May 6th we'll be screening the first episodes of the anime up for vote to watch next semester, so be sure to show up if you wanna be involved in deciding that. Also, we're still taking suggestions for things to put up for vote, so if you've got something in mind, let us know. We may or may not also be having officer elections on that day, not positive yet, we'll decide that by the meeting tomorrow and let you all know.

Hey everybody, our meeting this week is in Hasbrouck 124, so be sure to show up there. Geez, we haven't been stuck in Hasbrouck since....Spring 2006. Hope we can avoid the technical difficulties there that I used to enjoy watching the old officers struggle with, back when I was a wee freshmen.
Also, good news! The site's been updated! The DVD and English Manga sections of the catalog are now up-to-date, as well as the Past Showings section. I suppose it doesn't matter a whole lot to those of you already here and are used to this stuff, but I'm sure the people who come in next year will appreciate it. Also, we're gonna try to keep the website updated more often now, so you can check here for info rather than just relying on the mailing list.
Another thing, we're working up a list of anime to put on the ballot to vote on for next semester, so if you have any ideas or suggestions, be sure to let us know sometime within, say, the next 2 weeks.

I'm sure you'd all given up on me updating this again by now, hadn't you? Well, here I am, updating.
First: As at least those of you who go to meetings know, Yvette has resigned her position as President due to personal time constraints. While this doesn't really affect you directly, it does mean that WEDNESDAYS will be informal office hours only, ie. there won't necessarily be someone there.
Second: ANIME BOSTON! It's in 8 days. If you're not going, start saving up for next year so that you can go!!
Third: There are only two and a half semesters left of school, so if you would like to run for an office, start thinking about that now. Obviously if you're going for Treasurer or Librarian you'll be running against Clamps and Napoleon, but the other three offices are pretty much uncontested. I say pretty much because it's perfectly possible for me to run the website from Japan, and if I have to do that, I definitely will because it would be awesome.
Have a great Spring Break

It's Tuesday, and that means we have a meeting today.
The meeting will be in Morrill I N329, as it has been thes past couple of weeks. This is happening with happy regularity now, but don't expect it to continue.
Only five weeks and two days until Anime Boston 2008!!
[Mon. 2.11.2008]
Did I say I'd have this updated by Sunday? I meant Monday... -.-;;
Anyways, this week's meeting will be in Morrill N329 at 6pm on Tuesday the 11th. Regular showings will be shown, however Gunslinger Girl and Nerima Daikon Brothers will be switching places in the lineup.
Hopefully everyone remembered that today was the last day of Add/Drop, which heralds the REAL beginning of the semester. Good luck in all your chosen classes!
Office hours will be held regularly as posted on the Hours page. Please visit, we get lonely.
We are working on a blog/site if people are interested. Check it out by going
here. The blog will be a more interactive site than this one. Stay tuned for more updates.
