Message from that Guy

Hey everyone! People came for the roleplaying game this week, so I'm happy. Hope the players enjoyed it. And now a recap:
Kumako, still stuck in the Otherverse, learned once again how much it sucks to be a prisoner of the Otherverse. Kumiko, bitten by a mosquito in Korea, contracted Tourette's Sleeping Sickness and spent the rest of the episode in a violent twitching, swearing, catatonic fit.
The magical girls got to Russia, but instead of finding a bounty of black-market guns, they found a Japanese television crew and a translator who told them that they needed a lot more money than the 3200 yen in their pockets to get any sort of weapons. After a pointless ride in a helicopter, they set back off for home, or Tokyo at least.
Landing in Tokyo Disneyland, our favorite magical girl team scammed their way in and Hitomi proceeded to abuse her optical camouflage powers to steal a pile of Disney-themed items. Then she rigged a laser pointer to be an intensely destructive if slightly uncontrollable weapon. Seeing that Hitomi was doing all the destructive work for everyone, the rest of the group got jealous and decided that they were going to get the necessary two kilometers of fiber optic cable by digging a hole in a playground, attaching one end to the HMS Chemise, and dragged it out of the ground, destroying a couple buildings in the process.
The equipment now assembled, the magical girls set up their gate on the Tokyo Tower, and off they went into the Otherverse. Then, the gate closed behind them due to a serious flaw in gate design, but they didn't care. They were on a mission, not that they could necessarily agree on what that mission was.
Unfortunately, during teatime in the Otherverse, Lord Lamprey and a largish fleet came to bug the magical girls. Isabelle, having waited a long time for this moment, ordered that the levers be pulled and the HMS Chemise became the SDF Chemise, a mobile energy cannon platform so powerful the hover engines only have 15 minutes of charge. The cannon whacked the fleet and a good portion of Queen Stanley's palace, and the magical girls took the opportunity to smash the Chemise into the side of the palace, swearing that they would free Kumako and make the Otherverse pay...
NOTABLE QUOTES:

On Money:
Hitomi - "We could sell Mercedes's internal organs."

Isabelle - "Do you accept virgins?  I'm pretty sure Kumiko's still a virgin!"

Mercedes - "I thought we were going to buy Disney memorabilia to sell in Russia."

On Idealism:
Hitomi - "I take a Mickey and gut it!"

Mercedes - "I'm going to save the Earth, save the whales, and save the children."
Isabelle - "She's a virgin."

Aoi - "They may not have fertilizer, but they're not listless."

On Family:
Isabelle - "She's a virgin, and she's into incest!"
Aoi - "What?"
Isabelle - "You're a member of house Jurai."
Aoi - "Oh yeah -- Hey!"

On Duty:
Hitomi - "Since Kumako isn't playing now, we can leave her!"

Aoi - "It occurs to me that we're doing a bit more damage to socie--"
Isabelle - "Shut up!"
Aoi - "than the Otherv--"
Isabelle - "SHUT UP!"

I won't be here, so there won't be a game next week. Don't show up. Stay on vacation.


Tina's Corner
Before everyone disperses to go home for Thanksgiving, let's recap last
weeks video's. We watched Maze where there was a nice special on Solude, the
last half-hour of Galaxy Fraulin Yuna followed by one episode of Daiundoukai
Battle Athletes to balance out the . . . time inconsistency. And for all
those Daoists, we did watch Irresponsible Captain Tylor, which was very
interesting. Next week everyone will be watching football and eating lots
and lots of food.
But there is some good news for all those who are interested in watching
Princess Mononoke over break. It's being released in more theaters over
Thanksgiving break and the full listing can be accessed at
http://www.princess-mononoke.com/04.html. The areas closest to Williamsburg
are: RICHMOND at the Willow Lawn and
NORFOLK-N NEWS at the Columbus Center- Virginia Beach.
There could possibly be an Anime Club Road trip sometime during the last few
weeks of break. Just keep your fingers crossed.
Also, there are still two more people who need to pay me back for the
hotel fee. Kevin Christie and King Chan, I know where you live. Just pay me
back sometime before the end of the year. Thanks :)


Happy, Happy >(*_*)< Time
Well, there's nothing much to say on this end while we rush to get the letter out before Thanksgiving break.  Except, of course, for Katsucon!  Yes, I'm still on one of my con rampages.  Since, pre-reg will end while we're on Winter Break, I'd like to start collecting names of interested members.  Just send me e-mail telling me that you're interested and you'll be on the magical list of Con-ly goodness.  Katsucon is the 11-13 of Feburary and, since it happens to be in Arlington, we have a lot of housing options.  Aaron, Abby, and myself all live in that area and might be conned into providing housing.  Although, personally, I would prefer a hotel room for that non-stop, 24-hour anime feel, I know finances may be a concern.  So if you're interested, tell me and make your housing preference (if any) known.  Also, if you're interested in cosplay, making a music video, or practicing some karaoke, please tell me.  We're getting ready to take Katsucon by storm!  For more info, visit:  http://www.io.com/~katsucon/

Other than that, Happy Turkey Day!  Love, >(*_*)<


Librarian's Lair
I'm writing this from Ben and Aaron's room where >(^_^)< and I are looking through a book on spy instruments of sabotage while planning our upcoming Christmas gifts. Not much new to report now, especially since there won't be a meeting this week.
A week or two ago, I had the opportunity to watch Akira for the first time with Alicia and Josh. I can honestly say, I found it slightly less disturbing than the last episode of Yuna. I mean, sorry, but cutesy android girls leaking weird yellow liquid just isn't on my to-see list. Still, it's alright since I've got a love-hate relationship with happy series getting really dark.
Seeing as how it's almost the end of our first semester with a library, everyone feel free to give me some feedback on ideas for improvement. Things have been pretty inefficient, but hopefully that will change with the addition of an online check-out system. Maybe I'll be able to go into this in more detail some other time, but next semester, I plan on adding a couple of things to the library. First there's the first third or more of the surrealistic Revolutionary Girl Utena. Also the OAV series, Giant Robo. Good stuff, both of them. I'm also looking into fansubs, so I'll keep the club posted on developments.
In any case, have a nice break and enjoy the turkeyness. Let other serve you this week.
