Also don't forget tonight's showing is starting in T101 at 6:00, We're
showing My Neighbour Totoro and Spirited Away.
Also if anyone is around the college before, around or after the time of the
exams and there are enough of us, I was thinking that we'd hijack a
projector somewhere and get together to show a short series (e.g.
Deathnote...Innocent Venus...or a few volumes of FMA even) Let me know if
anyone's interested.

Hey everyone, tonight we shall be showing...
Azumanga Daioh:
Azumanga Daioh is about high school life through the eyes of six girls with
unusual personalities: Chiyo (the 10-year-old genius), Osaka (the resident
airhead), Sakaki (the shy one prone to cat bites), Tomo (the loose cannon),
Yomi (the short-tempered one) and Kagura (the resident jock).
AND
Steamboy:
Ray is a young inventor living in the U.K. in the middle of the 19th
century. Shortly before the first ever Great Exhibition, a marvelous
invention called the "Steam Ball," behind which a menacing power is hidden,
arrives at his door from his grandfather Lloid in the U.S. Meanwhile the
nefarious O'Hara Foundation has sent men to aquire the Steam Ball so that
they can use its power towards their own illicit ends.
I won't be there next week so talk to you all in week 12 when we have our
Ghibli Night!!!

Hey everyone,
It's that time again :D
Tonight's showings will be:
Turn A Gundam:
The year is Correct Century 2345. The civilization of Earth is at about the
level it was during World War I. Long ago, humanity traveled through space,
but the people of Earth have long forgotten about that. However, an advanced
civilization still exists in cities on the moon, and now this Moonrace, in
desperate need of resources, sets its sights back on its home planet. Three
Moonrace teenagers, Loran Cehack, Keith Laijie, and Fran Doll, are sent to
make sure that a return is even feasible, and are followed two years later
by the invading Dianna Counter forces. Now, five thousand years after
humanity first traveled into space, a new war is brewing between the
Earthlings defending their homes, the Moonrace looking to settle on Earth,
and other members of the Moonrace who believe a return to Earth may revive a
nightmare from humanity's forgotten past...
Code Geass:
The Empire of Brittania has invaded Japan using giant robot weapons called
Knightmare Frames. Japan is now referred to as Area 11, and its people the
11s. A Brittanian who was living in Japan at the time, Lelouch, vowed to his
Japanese friend Suzaku that he'd destroy Brittania. Years later, Lelouch is
in high school, but regularly skips out of school to go play chess and
gamble on himself. One day, he stumbles on terrorists 11s who've stolen a
military secret and is caught by a member of the Brittanian task force sent
after them, who is Suzaku. As the rest of the squad arrives, Suzaku is shot
for disobeying orders, while the military secret, a young girl, gives
Lelouch the power to make anyone obey any order. He takes command of the
terrorists and leads them to crush the approaching Brittanian force.
However, Suzaku is secretly made the pilot of Brittania's brand new test
model Knightmare, Lancelot. Lelouch becomes the masked king Zero to lead the
rebellion to defeat Brittania.
We're still waititng to hear whether or not we have Turn A, if any problems

MS Igloo:
Lieutenant Oliver May and the 603 Technical Division Unit aboard the
Jotunheim continue testing and evaluating experimental weapons to aid the
Zeon war effort against the Federation Forces. At the end of each
experiment, the tale of the trials and tribulations faced by the weapon and
its test pilot adds a small chapter to the long history of the One Year War
Interlude:
The unnamed main character has been having strange dreams, seeing strange
things, and meeting strange people. He investigates these events and finds a
strange girl named Aya. With her help, he discovers that his world may not
in fact be real and many of the people he thinks he knows may not exist
anymore.
Black Lagoon - The Second Barrage:
Okajima Rokuro - now known almost exclusively as 'Rock' - was once a
typical, put-upon Japanese businessman. Then, on a routine business trip, he
was kidnapped and ransomed by the Lagoon Company: a band of mercenary
pirates operating out of the crime-riddled city of Roanapur. Abandoned by
his bosses, he joined the Lagoon Company. Now he must try and stay afloat
amongst the ever-shifting politics of the criminal underworld, while
simultaneously avoiding death at the hands of his quick-tempered, gun-toting
co-worker, 'Two Hand' Revy.

Hey there everyone!
Tonight we shall be showing...
08th Team:
U.C. 0079 - In the middle of the One Year War, Ensign Shiro Amada is
transferred to South East Asia to command Kojima Batallion's 08th MS Team, a
small army of soldiers piloting RX-79[G] Gundam Ground type units. During
the skirmishes in the jungle, he confronts ace Zeon pilot Norris Packard and
falls in love with Aina Sahalin, a pilot involved in testing Zeon's
top-secret mobile armor. This relationship leads to the Federation doubting
their trust in Shiro. Now Shiro must prove his loyalty in the battleground
or die a traitor.
GitS: SAC 1:
In the future, life between the digital and physical world has been blurred.
The boundary of technology and humanity has been stretched beyond
imagination with lives being led in both the electronic and physical worlds.
With the melding of man and machine – a new cybernetic level of existence is
being created - An existence that continues to redefine mankind.
Could someone bring in 08th Team, I have GitS myself.
See you all later! Back in the Seminar room this week too!!

teacher, using his strength and connections to get his students to respect
him. Now, graduated, he gets a job at a prestigious private school to handle
their 'problem class' that made the past few teachers quit. He must handle a

Family vs. the Exorcists intensifies when some of the best Exorcists begin
to get killed by hoards of Akuma. Japan takes center stage in this end of

Akumas and the Exorcists have the power of "Innocence" that was given to
them by God on their side.
