MMU Anime Society

Regarding Natsume Yujinchou

Sombre — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 19:07:06 GMT

Which series did we actually watch? I'm watching season 2 now, and it seems like there's a lot of crosssover, if not repeated episodes. Was this just a cockup on the staffs part, ended up getting for example, episode 3 from season 1, then episode 4 from season 2, or am I just a pre cog?

Is the society ON next year?

Sombre — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 16:04:57 GMT

Haven't heard anything regarding if the society is actually formed or in any sort of working compostite outside of a name change. Has everything been put through the works and such? Are we actually on?

Got game?

Sombre — Sat, 13 Jun 2009 08:50:39 GMT

Are you a bad enough dude to play Team Fortress 2 with Alex and I?

POST HERE AND LETS BE MEDICS!

In regards to our Freshers Fair?

Sombre — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 16:30:13 GMT

After talking with Alex about this, I was wondering what we're going to do about it? I'd love to help of course, just wondering what we're going to do this year?

Also, Haruhi Season 2. TAP TAP TAP SNAP SNAP SNAP

EvaPilot-01 / Ant

EvaPilot-01 — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 20:45:34 GMT

Aloha, im Ant. Now if you haven't already guessed from my chosen username, one of my most favoritest(est) anime is Neon Genesis Evangelion. The first anime that I watched properly was the old 12 episode series of Guyver (I somehow got hold of a box full of VHS tapes) and then of course DBZ, Gundam Wing and Tenchi Muyo on cartoon network (Toonami, wooo). Thats not including pokemon/monster rancher/digimon and stuff though, although I would like to express the first series of pokemon is ...

So moe ;-;

Show me your animu's

Sombre — Sun, 29 Mar 2009 13:06:15 GMT

After watching all of BPS on megavideo( MOTHER OF GOD ), I wondered.

Where do you watch your animu and mango? I'm sort of falling into a spiral of watching dubs on youtube and scouring the internets for the fabled more than 1 person seeded Outlaw Star.

tl;dr-Where do you watch your stuff?

~Opening Theme On~

datalol-jack — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 05:03:36 GMT

This is a crackpot idea to kick start this very much dead sub-forum, which I think should be called something more general than 'Bands', and indeed should not strictly lie in J-Pop realm. List an opening theme on your mind at the moment, or whatever opening is playing as you type your reply, repeat until bored. I will make a proper forum game out of this at some point, but for now let's just have a laugh. Oh, and that is one theme per post! O.T.O! Anime: Ikki Tousen Dragon Destiny Track: ...

Wuddup

Sombre — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 16:15:47 GMT

I suck at getting around to doing stuff.

I am Carl, I wear the same clothes every week, which is jeans and the best green coat ever.

Elfen Lied is awesome. So is FMA, Akira, and anything else. ESPECIALLY funimation dubs. They are excellent.

I also am not in tonight, how does I got sick?

Sayonara :3

Outside Showtime Socials

Samvich — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 14:04:22 GMT

I think that the meet in Umami turned out to be a really successful day.

We all got to know a little bit about each other and actually sat down and talked. Just what our quiet sit-in-a-dark-room society needs. The food was great; prices not too bad. Overall a great idea whoever came up with it.

Can't help wondering where we could go next time.

Meet the Samvich

Samvich — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 13:30:33 GMT

I am the Samvich - anyone who lives on their computer for gaming will realise this is taken from TF2. But that is beside the point. I attend the thursday showings and am a huge fan of Black Lagoon ^.^ and several other titles that I may list if interest proves my time worthy. I like many things music- and food-wise and I'm really rather a nice person to get along with. So don't be shy I feel my time here is done. Sayonara. Oh and to make it plain to any slow people; ...

Forum links in emails. Sorted :D

EvaPilot-01 — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 12:32:36 GMT

I dunno why, but the links to the forums in all of the emails I have, wont actually lead me here. I just end up with some error message... but from what I can see the address is correct. The mind boggles. The requested URL could not be retrieved -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- While trying to retrieve the URL: http://mmuanime.omgforums.net/ The following error was encountered: Unable to determine IP address from host ...

New meeting activities

Laughing Man — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 13:36:41 GMT

Now then, with regards to the alternative activities, I will be setting up the Wii about an hour before the meeting is due to start (You're welcome to come even sooner, but be prepared to find the room empty or full of other people doing things) Also, there will be a nice collection of the original Manga Library, we have yet to arrange a proper lending system, and will be toying with a minimal charge, depending on how the budget meeting goes. If we charge even a tiny amount, we can angle ...

January Social

Laughing Man — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 16:41:34 GMT

After the Thursday meetings, we are having this months social outing. Please vote upon your desired event, if people don't vote enough, then it'll probably just go to whoever turns up.

is this for anyone?

killakase — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 06:22:36 GMT

It's Christmas!

Samvich — Thu, 25 Dec 2008 15:34:09 GMT

Well, I do hope that Santa brought you all some wondrous presents and toys to play with.

This year was particularly fruitful and has been a good year! I hope that the rest of you can say the same ^.^

Drinking night term 1 2008

Laughing Man — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 11:35:57 GMT

Hi there again people! This Friday we are going out, spending money and talking. Sounds familiar? It's a pub crawl of sorts, only with more walking then crawling, hopefully. As arranged by THE VICE, we are starting at the Student Union building: Walk up the stairs (or take the lift) to the second floor, the one with the bar, and stuff, and meet us inside on the table near the door, you should recognise us by now, if not, look for the gang of otaku LoL. I'll be there ...

Previous showings at the GM building

Laughing Man — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 18:28:07 GMT

So far we have seen Ghost in the shell, the stand alone complex, solid state society. With an impressive three sets of titles, this film is loosely based on an old anime, which is loosely based on an old film, which is loosely based on an old manga. Needless to say it was amazing (lest we wouldn't have shown it) but feel free to give your opinions on it here, reviews are welcome

Y u do dis >:(

Sombre — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 16:27:25 GMT

Been watching death note recently, and really enjoying it. Fun, good story, great animation. Sure

But, after Ryugaki [spoilers] DIES [/spoilers], I'n really finding it hard to care anymore. All the best characters knocked off, and replaced with some kid who plays with his hair. an androgynous waif who looks like a lady, and......some other dumb crap. Is it even worth me finishing, or should I just have my happy memories of the start?

Manga night

Laughing Man — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 19:21:21 GMT

Last year we had a few manga nights, which was basically a social in the meeting room, with snacks and drawing stuff provided.

We would naturally have various things to do, probably like a manga tutorial and stuff, of course, that is all open to debate, so, please do:

Mixup?

Sombre — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 16:48:12 GMT

Happy Unbirthday!

philosophicalpurple — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 10:43:48 GMT

Hello, just an intro to me Found this advertised in the morning and being the sad-git I am I thought I'd post, I work on thursday nights so sadly won't be attending screenings but I thought I'd join the mmu animu club unofficially anyways. Quite the introvert, Mr Pat tries to study Philosophy, failing that adding whiskey equals a crazy chinky on your hands (no thats not a racist thing, its me sense of humour...please don't let it bother you). I have been into anime since I was ...

Witchblade Introduction

Samvich — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 03:55:17 GMT

Please don't shout at me if I can't get a hold of my DVD. I will do my utmost. Hopefully my friend who holds the disk currently will remember to bring it before then. Should be seeing her on the Wednesday, so I shall remind her to bring it.

Live Action Films

Samvich — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 14:48:48 GMT

Don't suppose we have to stick to Anime films. And after seeing Sombre's avatar it reminded me of a long-time, partially confusing film called Casshern. I love it. A nice story and pretty imagery.

I have a number of other Japanese/Chinese films that I think would go down well. Obviously your opinions and suggestions on this matter is greatly appreciated.

Suggestion or Mash - Ups?

philosophicalpurple — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 13:50:11 GMT

I have been trying to decide where to post where this is, so I apologise if this is the wrong place. I have two suggestions for half-way movies/series, otherwise known as shorts. If you have already heard of them then excuse me, if you haven't I recommend them to all my friends. 1) Memories; its actually 3 different stories, all varied and have absolutely no relation to the word Memories, except the first short, which I think is the best out of them. I found this out through a fan ...

Why Do I Always Have To Be The Crotch?

Samvich — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 02:30:49 GMT

This is a question that sadly only one person asks themselves.

...much to the puzzlement and amusement of everyone else.

For some reason, Tim is always the crotch.

Epic fail FMA hentai

Laughing Man — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 01:02:43 GMT

Sitting in the dark I stumbled upon the single most absurd fan fiction hentai ever.
Full metal alchemist 'Ona nina unc trans'
Which is funny, art was good, but the dialogue is pure comedy gold.
Morbid curiosity lead me to read it (because I really like FMA, and for the record, I was and still am fully dressed)
it was just hilarious, thought I would share, hopefully get this spam forum kick started.

Staff Library

Laughing Man — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 13:21:17 GMT

The Staff library is huge, and will take time to be posted here. Once the borrowing system is set up, it will be possible to lend and borrow various things from within the society. Feel free to post what you are willing to share, or any requests, as a society, we can buy some manga specifically to loan out. Laughing man's books: Dr. Slump 1-5 Dragon Ball, Complete Dragon Ball Z, Complete Battle Royale, Complete Dot Hack, Twilight, Complete Naruto, 1-30 Negima, 1-16 Rurouni ...

Admin guy

Laughing Man — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 18:21:04 GMT

Hi, I'm the local Admin guy, known as many things, to some, I am mealy 'chunk' to others, Captain Medrano. Basically I'm the big guy in the robe at the meetings, often heard criticising our leader in chief. Friendly and easy going, feel welcome to strike up a convo, steal some pokey or ask a question. Chances are I won't know the answer, but I'll at least know someone who does. Oh, and call me Steve

General stuff

Laughing Man — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 18:24:15 GMT

Please note that mash up suggestions can go on the bottom of a voting slip, or in the mash up forum. There are several ways to suggest something, the most direct way is to accost a member of staff in a meeting (or on the street if you happen upon them) and just chatting away. Otherwise you can email at mmuanime@googlemail.com or post something here. Any one of all three will get you heard, with varying degree's of speed. As always, I like to think this society actually listens to ...
