Good Day All,



I apologize for the shorter notice of this newsletter. The University
got me the approved schedule in a reasonable amount of time. However,
I have been rather ill for the last few days, or catching up due to
being ill. It is my fault that this notice was delayed. For that a
sincerely apologize.



Neil Campbell, President of Animania

SCREENING SCHEDULE - SUBJECT TO CHANGE



(All titles will be shown in their original Japanese dialogue with
English subtitles.)



4:00pm

Gargoyle of the YUoshinakas (Running Series)

When Yoshinaga Futaba wins the first prize in a lottery, the prize
turns out to be a stone gargoyle. More surprising yet, the gargoyle
turns out to be alive, and battles evil.



5:15pm

History`s Strongest Disciple Kenichi, Kenichi

Shirahama Kenichi is an average student who has earned the nickname
"Weak Legs" from always getting bullied. One day he meets a cute girl
named Furinji Miu who helps him build the courage to begin training at
a mysterious dojo where she lives. Here Kenichi faces intense training
from masters of many different martial arts styles as he attempts to
become stronger.



6:30pm

Umisho 1-3

Kaname Okimura, a student of Prefectoral Umineko Shougyou High
("Umisho" for short), joined the school's swimming club in order to
learn how to swim, but the club is filled with weirdos, let alone
teaches him swimming. Then, a sunny, happy-go-lucky girl named Amuro
Ninagawa who was transferred from Okinawa joined the club. Her
extraordinary underwater speed and unorthodox swimming style (plus her
personal habit of nude swimming—a powerful magnet to teenage boys)
surprised every club member, especially Okimura, because she reminds
him of a mermaid-like creature he saw only once in his early
childhood.



7:45pm

Break



8:45pm

Monster Princess 1-3 (Running Series)

Since Hiro Hiyorimi's parents died, he and his sister Sawawa have
lived apart. Now, Sawawa has gotten a new job as the caretaker of a
creepy old mansion, and has sent Hiro a letter asking him to come and
stay there with her. Finding the mansion boarded up and apparently
empty, Hiro wanders around town looking for Sawawa. Instead, he runs
into the new resident of the mansion, and ends up pushing her out of
the way of some falling steel beams. Unfortunately, he loses his own
life in the process. Luckily, or perhaps unluckily, the person he
thought he saved turns out to be a princess of the monster kingdom,
and she grants him a second life...but only for as long as he will be
her servant.



10:00pm

Raffle

Prizes have been generously donated by Wizzywig (4720 South State Rd.,
Ann Arbor, MI 48108).



10:15pm

Claymore 1-4 (Running Series)

In a world rife with deadly creatures called "youma", a young silver
eyed woman, Clare, works on behalf of an organisation that trains
female youma halfbreeds into warriors with the ability to destroy
these creatures. Considered a rogue for picking up a stray child &
almost losing herself to her youma side by "Awakening", she is
constantly assigned rather dangerous missions...
