Report on June 14 meeting
Attendance was light today; other than Kris and myself, only two members were present. But they got a special treat, as I was able to provide a digital projector and subwoofer-equipped speakers for my laptop, so the sound and video were better than ever. (In particular, the subtitles were a lot more readable, at higher resolution and larger size!)
As scheduled, Hellsing #10, RahXephon #9, Hikaru no Go #6, Haibane Renmei #9, and Galaxy Angel #9 were shown.
Afterward I showed the opening credit sequences for, and gave brief descriptions of, D.N.Angel, Naruto, Scrapped Princess, Ghost in the Shell, Narue no Sekai, E’s Otherwise, Last Exile, Kino no Tabi, Kaleido Star, Abenobashi Mahou Shoutengai, Uchuu no Stellvia, and Full Moon wo Sagashite. In my personal opinion, the best of this crop are Scrapped Princess and Last Exile (and I’m also enjoying Kaleido Star and Uchuu no Stellvia), but once Hellsing and Haibane Renmei are over (in a few meetings), we’ll put it to a vote (perhaps after a reshowing of these intros, and any others that members opt to provide).
