Finally!!

After lots of efforts and a long wait, I finally managed to establish our very own university anime & manga society; the University of Strathclyde Anime & Manga Society (USAMS). We held our first meeting today at the Debates Chamber in the Student Union building from 6:00 to 8:00 pm (well, it actually lasted more than 2 hours because I took a long time to do the introductions and stuff but I digress). I screened the first episodes of School Rumble (first season), Honey & Clover (first season), Starship Operators and Monster.

The attendance was less than expected but that is probably because it’s a Friday night and most people have other things to do. Our next meeting will be on a Wednesday night so hopefully we will get more members to attend.

The people who attended loved all 4 shows. As expected, School Rumble was a riot and resulted in more laughs than the other shows. All members thought Monster was impressive and of high quality (not surprising really. It is Monster after all!). They also enjoyed Honey & Clover and Morita was an instant favourite! Starship Operators got them thinking and speculating which is exactly what I want. Hopefully, they will enjoy the episodes screened next meeting (^_^)
