Well, here we are after 20 years...still kicking!!

So, this night will be a bit of a celebration of the club, which may or may not contain:

Pizza!!!
The playlist from the first AJAS meeting!
Robot Carnival
Silent Mobius Movie #1
Other assorted goodies, possible giveaways etc (I know of at least one thing I'm giving away)!

If you know of anyone, past or present, who would like to come and relive the good times over the past 20 years, please don't hesitate to invite them!!

We aren't going for the authentic period-correct setting, right?

Minus the turbonerds camped around a VHS player of course. :respect:


I can only imagine what getting subbed anime was like back then....

I could always throw in a Betamax for good measure!

Back then, you had to know someone in Japan who would post you the tapes....slow and expensive

If I'm not working, you better believe I'm not going to miss a public screening of frickin' Robot Carnival.
Although I don’t know about the directions at 4:51.
It’s commonly known when you look north in Japan East is to your left. Please don’t try to correct that sentence. It lasts only for a second but I wouldn’t expect a mistake like that.

Come and join Madoka in 2013 and say Der Krieg invented the giant robot mecha genre to similar how Madoka created Mahou Shoujo Genre in 2011.
