September 1st is when we’ll be having our very first MTSU Anime Club meeting of the semester.
Wednesday meetings this year are in Mass Comm 104 from 6pm-9pm. However, the meeting on September 1st will only be from 6pm to 7:30pm because organizations are not allowed to conflict with MTSU’s Welcome Week events. Please make a note of this!
For those unfamiliar with our meetings, we tend to watch Japanese cartoons. In Japan they refer to it as “anime”. Anime can be very diverse, as opposed to Western culture’s animation which is generally limited to children’s tv, or comedy (IE: Simpson’s, South Park). If this sounds like it is something you’re interested in, feel free to stop by. There are no dues, and there is nothing to be afraid of!
After each meeting, we gravitate towards cyber cafe for dinner and hang out there until they close up shop. We generally try to keep quiet during the shows, but we encourage social activity at this venue. If you are a freshman and/or do not know where Cyber Cafe is, just ask someone at the meeting.
Our first Thursday meeting will be on September 9th. More details on that will be posted closer to the date.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to express them at the 1st meeting official thread: A Reminder About the First Week’s Meeting

Well, sort of.
Currently, we are taking names of those who are interested in going to Awa. We have rooms available, and all that. So head on over to our forums and post in the official thread if you’re interested in going.
Once we get a rough estimate on who will be going, we can discuss prices. It’s important that you put your name in this thread, and keep an eye on it as things progress:
AWA Club Registration Thread
It’s imperative that if you are interested that you express your desire to sign up promptly. AWA is rapidly approaching, and we need to know before school starts up.

Hey all, I was doing some summer updating and I messed up the site. It’s all black now and has default pictures.
Don’t let that discourage you, though! There’s a t-shirt ninja who happens to have backups. Those should be available shortly.
In the meanwhile, please take some time to check our amazing forums
The forums are fancy and nice. You can talk to like-minded anime fans and get some extreme discussions going on. So dial-up and log on!

There comes a time in every anime club’s life when they have that innate desire to lure incoming freshman to join our wonderful establishment.
It is customary that all incoming freshman attend a customs session. It’s a glorious orientation that can be fun for everyone!
Current club members are encouraged to volunteer to be at the booth. You can cosplay, bring anime-ish things, or some manga. It’s an excellent opportunity to meet fresh faces!
Prospective club members are invited to come visit our table, and learn more about what we do. If you’re into anime, you should definitely give our booth a visit.
Here is the list of the days when we will have a table at customs:
May 27 (Th)
June 4 (F)
June 10 (TH)
June 16 (W)
June 19 (SAT)
June 24 (TH)
July 8 (TH)
July 14 (W)
July 17 (SAT)
July 23 (F)
July 29 (TH)
The session lasts from 9am-noon. (Although, students usually don’t come until 9:30)
For other comments, volunteering, questions, or concerns please visit the thread on our forums
