Showings for the Spring 2010 semester:

Officers' Choice - Midori No Hibi

High school delinquent Seiji Sawamura is desperate to have a girlfriend, especially after being rejected by 20 girls as of late. He's afraid that he will end his life with his right hand as his only companion. Apparently, that doesn't change when one day when he wakes up and discovers that his right hand has become a girl named Midori Kasugano, who confesses that she has had a crush on him for the last three years.

Members' Choice - Bamboo Blade

Toraji Ishida is a high school kendo teacher. His friend and fellow kendo teacher makes him a bet: if Ishida can assemble a girls' kendo team that can defeat his girls' team in a practice match, he'll treat Ishida to free meals at his father's sushi restaurant for a whole year. Now Ishida must find five girls to join the team.

UPDATE:
Our first meeting is tomorrow!
As part of our first meeting, we'll be voting on the Members' Choice anime to watch throughout the semester.
Be thinking of anime to nominate! The guidelines are:

•The anime series must be licensed by a US company.

•It shouldn't have been watched in Anime Kurabu (excluding random showings)

If your anime wins the vote, you'll get a special something!
