Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Just a reminder that this club will be celebrating it's 10 year anniversary on Thursday.

Tom might be doing something on the site, but what are we doing?

A post on /r/anime? A moment of reflection? A walk down memory lane?

Any ideas would be awesome.

We should all watch something together through a stream, something to make this feel more like a club.

That would actually be pretty nice

I'm in, but what exactly are we gonna watch? We have to pick it out carefully or a lot of people will get pissed off.

I did this on Skype if you all have a mic and want to watch anime just lets get a skype call going and we can decide on something.

Skype name in profile

A Google+ hangout or some simulcasting tool would be easier imho.

Tomorrow's the big day.
So we got this all planned and ready or what?

I vote the Gurren lagaan movie.

Dis idea. I like it.

What about Livestream?

Gurren Lagaan sounds nice. If y'all are up to watching that's not anime but still Japanese, I recommend the Seven Samurai movie.

I'd be game with just the last 9 episodes of the series

Not yet. I intend to celebrate all week long so we can put something together while I work on my masters thesis.

I'd prefer that, honestly. or maybe Ran or Yojimbo.

He's talking about the Kurosawa film. It's really good.

How would it? Skype is pretty much my go to instamessaging service and it's so fucking easy to us. Also, I really, really don't do the whole social network site stuff. the only thing is twitter. We could try the Google+ thing but I vote Skype. Just find a perfectly legal site* and we can chum it up, do a synced countdown and watch with joy.

There are sites that let you stream videos and chat at the same time. I think Livestream would be alright.

I prefer Twitch to be honest

I'd say we just hold a Kurosawa marathon and tack on Rashomon as well, but I don't even have the time for that. Seven Samurai gets my vote because it's my favorite.

I can't host shit, though, because I'm on my tablet atm.

50's, but yeah.

Frickin hivemind. I was about to post the exact thing, but you did it already.

Yeah, I'm still not organising anything and expecting someone else to get shit done too.

Well I might have missed the party, although I didn't think that there was much of one, but congrats of 10 years on the forum anyway. To celebrate, {or simply on a whim} I decided to marathon a show that I thought I wouldn't bother seeing again, Neon Genesis Evangelion. I'm starting to grow appreciation for NGE and the franchise in general in which I didn't before, though I'm certainly not going to put it ahead of Gurren Lagann anytime soon.

And I'm also marathoning through GaoGaiGar as well, in harmony of a mood whiplash if you will.

I would've streamed something if my laptop were working. Oh well, I began reading Eiji Yoshikawa's Musashi earlier which fucking rocks and all.

Finished Out by Kirino Natsuo a while ago but don't recall mentioning it before. It's about four housewifes cutting up dead bodies for profit and getting out of debt; shit goes downhill from there. Go read it nowww please.
