See you there.
John
*Naruto :
Naruto closely follows the life of a boy who is feared and detested by the
villagers of the hidden leaf village of Konoha. The distrust of the boy has
little to do with the boy himself, but it's what's inside him that causes
anxiety. Long before Naruto came to be, a Kyuubi (demon fox) with great
fury and power waged war taking many lives. The battle ensued for a long
time until a man known as the Fourth Hokage, Yondaime, the strongest ninja
in Konoha, fiercely fought the Kyuubi. The fight was soon won by Yondaime as
he sealed the evil demon in a human body. Thus the boy, Naruto, was born. As
Naruto grows he decides to become the strongest ninja in Konoha in an effort
to show everyone that he is not as they perceive him to be, but is a human
being worthy of love and admiration. But the road to becoming Hokage, the
title for the strongest ninja in Konoha, is a long and arduous one. It is a
path filled with betrayal, pain, and loss; but with hard work, Naruto may
achieve Hokage.

Well after the weeks break we are back!
This week will see the first 3 episodes of the fantastic
Scrapped Princess, followed up by more Chrono Crusade.
Refreshments - cookies, fanta (in our new pint glasses <.< >.>)
as usual and we will be meeting upstairs in the Hub tomorrow at
7pm.
_Scrapped Princess_:Pacifica Casull is the most feared and hated
person by the followers of the God Mauser. Known as the Scrapped
Princess, she is the poison that will destroy the world. To
avoid being killed by the zealots of Mauser, Pacifica and her
adoptive brother and sister leave the village of Manhurin. Her
brother, Shannon, is an expert with the sword while Racquel is
proficient with magic. At every step of the way, however, someone
is constantly trying to kill Pacifica, hoping to somehow avert
the catastrophe that is supposed to befall the world on her 16th
birthday
_Chrono Crusade_:The year is 1928 A.D. The place is New York,
U.S.A. The economic prosperity brought forth after the Great War
also heightened the presence of something far darker and much more
sinister: the demonic Sinners. The Magdalene Order is an
organization that tries to counter this force. Two of its
exorcists are Rosette Christopher and her assistant, Chrono. Both
appear out of place in an organization like this, and they are in
a quest to find Rosette's missing brother, Joshua. Their
relationships, secrets and fates can only be revealed in time...

This week there will episodes of episodes of Gate Keepers 21 (OAV)
and a surprise...that means I have no idea ;)
GateKeepers 21 : Thirty-two years have passed since the initial defeat of the
Invaders. A.E.G.I.S. is all but dismantled now and has become an underground
organiziation consisting of only a few Gate Keepers left to save humanity. One
of the members, Ayane Isuzu, is sick of society as a whole, though she
continues to defeat the Invaders out of spite for her father. Suddenly, she
learns of the revival of Machine General (Kikai Shogun) and Devil Count (Akuma
Hakushaku), but a mysterious ghost girl now accompanies them. Find out if
Ayane and the remnants of A.E.G.I.S. will be enough to stop them and save
humanity once again.
Its good :)

Come onto the forums and recommend stuff that you want to watch and we will
organise it!
Descriptions provided by Anime News Network
Trinity Blood
The three important groups, the Empire, the Vatican and the Order of the Rozen Kreuz, are always in conflict. The Empire is on a country called Methuselah and the race is called Vampire. There is conflict with the Vatican for the difference of races. The protagonist is a priest called Peter Abel Nightroad, who travels through the countries as a representative for the Department of Foreign Affairs in Vatican. However, he also belongs to a secret agency of the Vatican known as "Ax", a Special Operation Group controlled by the Cardinal Catherina Sforza, secretary of the Deparment of Foreing Affairs. His encounter with a young girl called Esther will determine the struggle and survival between the human race and the vampires.
Ninku
In the war, a group of warriors called Ninku fought against the Imperial Army and almost anihilated it. But in the end, the Ninku lost and got shattered. After the war, the imperial army established themselves as the defender of the people with the help of propaganda. They also managed to get the people to think the Ninku were the villains and had started the war. Fusuke looks like a child but he is the former captain of the first Ninku division. His mother was taken during the war and after the Ninku were defeated, he goes on a journey to find her. On his journey he meets Aicho and Touji, both also former Ninku captains, and together they fight against the imperial army that tries to kill the last remaining Ninkus.
The ninku is a clan of extinct ninjas who command esoteric and powerful techniques, hence a lot of other groups are constantly trying to steal their techniques to take over the country. Their primary target is Fusuke, a weird looking kid but one of the most powerful Ninku ninja. Fusuke, together with other Ninku ninja with different specialties must fight those threat that caused the downfall of the Ninku clan.
Hope to see you all there!

Second point - the AMS is now a seperate society from Japanese
soc. This means though that anyone who has signed up/paid money
they are a member of Japanese soc so sadly we have no money currently...
This did NOT stop us charging 900 euro of anime and manga to the SPC!
:D We hope to be getting this shipment soon.
We hope though to provide free refreshments to those who attend the
showings but to do this we need actual cash. So we will be opening
membership now for next year - i.e. you pay your 4 euro now and thats
good till September 2006!
Final point is that EirtaKon is doing great :D we have loads of sponsors
