For all the freshmen of class 2015, welcome to Stanford! For the rest of us old timers, welcome back!

This year Stanford Newtype will again host weekly screenings of the latest and best in Japanese animation.  Thanks to our sponsorship from Crunchyroll, we get to (legally) watch many of the most recent shows within days or hours of  airing in Japan.  Dates and times are TBD, so stayed tuned to our emailing list.

We will also be working on our own  doujinshi this year, sequel to last year’s Nibbles.  If you want to join in on the action, sign up on the list.

Heads-up for up-coming events:

There are many more events in the works, so stay tuned~
Edit: added Anime Destiny

As club members may know, we published a (very short) doujinshi for AOD this spring. We’re aiming for something a bit more voluminous for Fanime this year and hope to add in some short stories as well as perhaps a CD with a PDF of the doujinshi on it and an original song.

For those of you who haven’t seen our doujinshi yet… I’ve uploaded a PDF…
AOD Edition of Nibbles (PDF)

Upcoming Events

Calendar: http://newtype.stanford.edu/?page_id=535

10/16 Anime Destiny

UC Berkeley’s Anime Con, http://animedestiny.silential.com/index.php
A con in the local Bay Area!  I’ll be giving updated panels on Touhou and Vocaloid with new stuff from this summer, so look forward to it!  And, I’ll be giving rides as usual.

10/16 Cosplay.com’s NorCal Fall Gathering
http://www.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=216160
ACK!  Unfortunately, this is the same day as AD!  I really wanted to go to this, but I can’t go to both (this is south of San Jose).  However, if some of you really want to go to this and need a ride, I’ll consider going to this instead.

10/29-10/31 Yaoi-Con

Karaoke!

We’re going to have our first event this year, which will be Karoke at Gamba at this Sunday!  We’ll be leaving campus from Escondido Turnaround at 10am, Sunday 10/3.
The place we are going to has a bunch of Japanese songs, on karaoke machines from Japan, and they were just updated a few weeks ago, so it should have most of the songs you’re looking for.
We will go until 3-4pm.  Please bring some cash if possible, about $15.  But, they do take credit cards, also.
On the way there, we’ll stop by Ranch 99 Deli for Dim Sum or other snacks, but don’t eat too much!

Please fill out this form if you are going: https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dGJXOHZKeXNVT19xc0w5dGh0b1JrMGc6MQ


Weekly Meeting

Our weekly meeting in Gates B12 at 8pm this Saturday.  We’ll be starting Toradora, a very funny high school romance comedy involving the easily flustered “Palm-Top Tiger” and the cool and calm Ryuuji Takasu with the face of a delinquient.

Afterwards we’ll be having a gaming session, so please bring your Pokemon games! We will also be having Super Smash Brothers Meelee and Brawl as well as other games.
