Next Propeller Anime Club meeting on Sunday, August 22nd!

So Tales of Earthsea never came to theaters in Orlando. What a shame!

The next meeting for the Propeller Anime Club will be on Sunday, August 22nd at 1:15pm at FS3B-113!

What is our main feature this time? How about something truly badass!?

Because it's been far too long since we've had Kenshiro truly at the club meeting, we will be showing Fist of the North Star: The Legends of the True Savior: Legend of Raoh: Chapter of Death in Love! That's right, nested subtitles! Japan, you are crazy! Funny thing about this movie is that it's not about Kenshiro fighting Roah; it's about Kenshiro fighting Souther.

Souther is a dude who spends a lot of time sitting on a throne(not to be confused with the chair from AFO) and enslaves children so they can do manual labor and build him a pyramid. He might be onto something there! His fighting style is Nanto Ho-oh Ken, which really has nothing to do with Pokémon.

We will be finishing Baccano! YES! The adventures on The Flying Pussyfoot are over, so what happens next? With three more episodes will the Rail Tracer confess his love to Chane Laforet? What kind of trouble will Isaac and Miria get into this time!?

New series: Black Lagoon! It's about a badass chick named Revy who likes to shoot LOTS of people with guns! Sounds like a winner to me!

In addition to all that, we continue Samurai 7! The samurai have been framed for murder! What will happen? Will that bishonen blonde samurai join the crew?

This will also be a good opprotunity to plan the future of the club in terms of structure, promotion, and events! See you all this Sunday!

NEWCOMERS WHO FOUND OUT ABOUT US AT AFO ARE WELCOME! WE ARE MEETING AT FULL SAIL UNIVERSITY!

Recap of Yesterday's Meeting! 9/13 Edition

Yesterday had much longer of a meeting than planned, but it was good times! For the opening part of the meeting, we talked about George's departure and I discussed idea for Megacon guests(since Anime Sushi asked me to). I am still up for ideas since the meeting for proposing guests won't be until this weekend.

We also finalized the time and location for Ultimate Gaming Showdown III! It will be on Sunday, October 11th in FS3B-113! Games for tournament play will include Mario Kart 64, Goldeneye 007, the original Super Smash Bros., Street Fighter II: Turbo, and Sonic the Hedgehog 3's race mode! It's a very classic setup and fun times should be had by all! We will probably have some games setup for casual play as well. More on that later!

We finally finished Outlaw Star. It was an excellent ending with a Mexican Standoff thrown in for fun. It really takes a long time for us to go through a series and I believe we started on this show during the spring. We found out about the Galactic Leyline and Gene finally confessed his feelings for Melfina and teamed up to take down Lord Hazanko.

I thought that Harry MacDougal also had some good finally moments before his physical form was brutally destroyed. The series ends with a possibility for a sequel; however, one never happened. Instead, there was a spin-off series called Angel Links that I hear is pretty bland.

We also watched more Guin Saga and learned more about Istaval, the Crimson Mercenary. He once was told a prophecy that the princess of light would make him king and then bring darkness. He is not ure if it's Rinda, or the Mongauli princess Amnelis. One thing is for certain is that his rebelious loner attitude does bring some trouble to the group. He kind of reminds me of the most recent Prince of Persia.

What is also notable of the episodes we watched is when Guin wrecked a giant river monster with a boat paddle. I think the club is waiting for him to go berserk again like he did in the first episode.

We also watched There will be Brawl, a live-action film noir spoof on the Smash Bros universe. It's pretty entertaining. Maybe next time Luigi will see Captain Falcon and show him his moves!

Finally, we watched the 1986 Fist of the North Star movie. It was awesome! The final battle between Kenshiro and Raoh was all kinds of epic! I look forward to more clasic anime movie showings in the future.

Next club meeting is September 27th!

Next meeting: Sunday, September 13th at 3:00 p.m.

Our next meeting will be Sunday, September 13th at 3:00 p.m. in FS4E-104. This is the building that students pick up their books and partake in delicious waffles and smoothies at the Dieselbean Cafe. Unfortunately, the cafe is closed on Sundays but we will be having a meeting in that building anyways!

The meeting will be special for three reasons:

 

1.) We will be showing the final three episodes of Outlaw Star! There will be a showdown on the Galactic Leyline between Gene's crew, the Kei Pirates, the MacDougal Brothers, and anyone else who wants to get in on the action! It will be an explosive conclusion!

 2.) We will be showing episodes 4 & 5 of Guin Saga. It's been a great show so far and the introductory arc has just finished! Who is the man in the leopard mask going to send flying with a roundhouse kick this time!?

3.) Last week we discussed showing a classic anime film at each meeting. The first one will be the classic 1986 Fist of the North Star movie! We've shown several of the Hokuto no Ken films and OVAs and it's been a fun time so far, so now we will show the most brutal and violent of the Fist of the North Star anime! It's a re-imagining of the first third of the series. 

Earth has been devasted by nuclear war, and deadly martial arts now rules the wasteland. When Kenshiro's beloved Yuria is kidnapped by a best friend gone mad, he sets out on a quest to save her that will not only be for revenge, but also honor! Kenshiro will face off against well known adversaries such as Shin, Jagi, and the Fist King himself - Raoh! If you are a true man, you will come see this with us!

We have three awesome reasons for you to come to the meeting on September 13th and we hope to see you there!
