    Is being in an anime club really as bad as /a/ makes it out to be?

    I'm in the club at my university and we just finished up for the semester. I got to say it was a motley crew at best, let me tally them off.
    -plump girls
    -asian girl with cat ears hat who love Haruhi
    -fat guy who always wears sweat pants
    -Dude with NERV embroidered on the side of his bag
    -random black people
    -middle age man in 30's who looks like he doesn't belong there
    -guy with grey hair who looks like he belongs there

    I was surprised by the lack of Narutards or Bleach fans.

    Over this semester, we watched Slayers Next, FMP Fumoffu, Black Lagoon: The Second Barrage, Toradora, Best Student Council. We also watched some other shows only once like Black Heaven, the first ep of Umineko, Rec and the dub of Monte Cristo.

    While the selection was okay by me, it irked me that most of people around didn't know about the current stuff, like Needless or Seitokai. Then towards the end of our last session for the semester, the guy running the video asked if we wanted to see something interesting. It ended up being the first ep of Trapeze, and while I was happy about it, everyone else had never seen. I'll just say it was interesting for me to watch them watching it.

    You guys have any positive club memories?

    ...You're alright. I won't say you're a terrible club. Just don't use japanese words or get obsessive over anime. Also, arguments where you actually get angry over something are a big no no.

    The club definitely added their own commentary most of the time, but for the most part the black guys in club didn't speak much. Lot's of "Now why would he do that" and "WTF?" like with first episode of Trapeze.

    I visited the animu club at the my old community college since my firned and I was invited by the president. It was fucking horrible, weeaboos (and I mean real weeaboos, people who worship the japanese culture) everywhere, screaming and cursing during the screening.

    It was very sad in a way, but I guess it works for them. Better than me I guess; an anti social basement dweller.

    You lucked out
    Most anime clubs are like an immersive youtube comment.

    As for me? My first club was a subgroup of the tabletop/video game club and had 4 people including me. We ended up watching black cat and bleach but I only went once. The one other whitey had a decent amount of anime on DVD but he said he'd not watched much of it, I pretty much just showed him TT on my way out and he was quite pleased.

    I ended up changing schools and the second club wasn't much better. The 'officers' have a pretty high powerlevel and we watched episodes of Potemayo, Photon, and Bakemono, but the club policy is not to marathon stuff, and that's just a clash of ideals with me since I prefer to marathon. My biggest complaint though was that the room was this small little "party room" with folding chairs, and with 30ish or so people and a low projector screen the back 3 or 4ish rows just couldn't see the subs.

    Just not enjoyable either way, but who knows, maybe they've found a way to get a stadium classroom or something and it'll be better next semester. I do plan on visiting.

    Well we each get to nominate three shows for next semester and I'm going to nominate Needless, Trapeze and I'm deciding between Seitokai no Ichizon or Bakemonogatari. Someone mentioned Kampfer today and apart from groaning a bit I also heard the Sonic Heroes song in my head. Thanks for a completely predictable ending Kampfer.

    OP, how do you feel about the idea? I mean, dude you are asking 4chan for a response. I just started up an anime club at my high school and it's pretty damned cool, and I think that as long as you are cool with the concept then it's all good. Anime clubs tend to be far from what /a/ makes them out to be, just like almost all anime mentioned on this board.

    I really tried. I tried not to judge, as the people at the first club meeting share the same interests as me. My experience though was that the club was full of very socially awkward people and I never went back. One guy came up to me and just started staring over my shoulder. I gave him a warm "Hi!" and he just kept silent, staring. He eventually piped up and said "I'M LOOKING AT WHAT YOU'RE DOING". Needless to say I was thoroughly creeped out.

    Eventually, the organizer arrived and took a poll for the activities. "Hey we'll take a vote, who here wants to get to know each other?". I put up my hand, and noone else did. "Alright, who wants to watch Evangelion?". The hands shot straight up. One of the guys in the room turned around, looked at me, and said in the nerdiest voice I've ever heard: "Haaaaaa! YOU LOSE!!!!". I got up and left. I do not regret it to this day, but I'm worried - is this how I appear to the normal people I interact with daily? I am after all, one of them.

    My club is full of fucking faggots and fat girls.

    And the fat girls aren't the pleasant type of fat girls.

    There are a few "normal" types that came every once in a while.

    Dunno if they still go because I quit going since the only way I could tolerate it was to get shitfaced beforehand.

    Then I figured out that I could get shitfaced at home and still have a decent time.

    I swear it's the truth. I think of myself as friendly and approachable, if not opinionated. I had never talked to the you lose guy before and didn't make comments about the starer guy either. But, I'll admit it and say I don't have more than a dozen close friends.

    Instead, I joined the guitar club and I got a volunteer teacher to teach me to play Spice and Wolf OP Tabi no Tochuu without him knowing what it's from. Win-win situation, methinks.

    Three was the _lower bound_ implied by your statement. Three friends who enjoy anime must be a small subset of your total friends, considering anime has a pretty small audience.

    I'm the president of my schools anime club, and it's alright so far. The people are fairly reasonable except for this one guy. I swear I am so fucking close to slapping him. He is pushing 30, and is fugly as all hell. He is AT LEAST 300 lbs, and always wear hawaiian shirts. He insist that everyone calls him "L-Shikamaru." And that's not the worst part. He has to fucking talk through EVERYTHING. Seriously. I've had to tell him to shut up at least 20 times this whole quarter. And my fuck-tarded secretary (before she had to quit) would go ON AND ON about her fugly boy friend, and how he was tall dark and handsome. He looked like a date rapist with a bad hair day. And then he dumped her. I lol'd hard. And there is this other chick; I don't know if her eyelids are too small, or her eyes are too big, but she always has this expression "O_O" She creeps me out.

    As for viewing, the club is indecisive as fuck. I'll be like "What do you want to watch?" and no one will say anything, and then my VP gets mad at me for being like "Ok.. we should watch [blank]" For the record, everyone has liked what I've shown so far.

    On a good note, our school who is going through bad budget cuts, and firing teachers left and right, gave us $700 to go to a con. The best part is, a week later I over heard one of the ladies that is on the student council, in tears say "YOU GIVE MONEY TO CARTOONS, BUT YOU WON'T BUY THE SCHOOL A CHRISTMAS TREE?!!" Felt good man.

    Sorry, but last time I checked "around three" means "two to four" not "MINIMUM OF THREE." Do you guys seriously interpret "around #" as "MINIMUM OF #?" Because that is the most fucked up and disturbing thing I have ever heard in my entire life. I'm not going to be able to sleep at night. Thanks, guys.

    Never got the chance to attend a meeting of my school's anime club while I was in college. Just didn't see the need. I tend to keep a small circle of friends and I had enough to keep me happy and entertained, two of whom shared anime as a hobby. We often wound up watching the same thing separately and then talking about it when we got together. Every so often the rest of my friends would decide that we should all watch something as a group, which is how I ended up watching Rah Xephon, Texhnolyze, Azumanga Daioh, and the Sailor Moon live action.

    Never been to any kind of anime club, but, the way I see it- you either expose your power level and scare everyone, or, hide it and have to keep hiding it and eventually implode.

    Amirite?

    My club is awesome.

    First and foremost, we start with the basic assumption that everyone there has seen the entry level anime such as bebop, Eva, and major shounen.
    Secondly, we are established on the goal of showing somewhat obscure or lesser known stuff.
    Basically, it's 3 hours of showing a mix of different series, often based on a theme. We've screened Bubblegum Crisis, Mononoke, Gintama, Macross, etc. Nothing a high level /a/gent hasn't seen, but only cool stuff usually.

    The only bad weeks are incidentally, new season weeks.

    We have a mix of weirdos and somewhat normal people, but nothing too bad usually. Not like you really have to talk to anyone anyway.

    My college's anime club has a pretty long history. Actually, it's one of the oldest anime clubs in North America and led to other branches being formed at other Universities. It even claimed to be one of the largest outside of Japan... but the numbers have dwindled and now it's just a handful of people.

    I only ever considered joining one anime club, and that was for the exactly half an hour I had to stay there before I could make a convincing excuse to leave. I've occasionally thought about finding another, but I've yet to find one that fails to give me an excellent nreason to assume they're just as bad before I show up to a meeting.

    /a/ may be just as shitty as the lot, but at least here I can ignore anything I don't like and never have to worry about meeting people here in public spaces.

    If I ran into any of the Anons here it would go by with nothing more than simple talk about random stuff. Maybe I would show a bit of power level (bring up Negima, manga reading hobby related shit, what anime I recently picked up...etc) but nothing obnoxious. Nothing like using Japanese words out of context, unless I wanted to speak whole sentences of Japanese. In short, I would avoid things that /a/ has taught me are not good to do/say. I think in a way, you would never know you met a fellow 4channer. In a good way mya~

    My club is decent enough, but there are some socially retarded guys who go there. And maybe one girl. There's the kind of cute, stuttering guys who have no idea how to talk to a girl. That's fine. Then there are guys who drool over half-naked cosplayers on their laptops and shake your hands for several minutes. I suppose it's not enough to complain about, but they could stand to learn some social tact. There's at least one guy who is so out there that once, we were having a potluck, and I'm standing there, plate in hand, and he hands me this candy in a wrapper. I thought, oh, he needs a hand while he's grabbing something else, so I'm nice. I juggled my plate to one hand and help him out by grabbing the candies with the other. Then he looks at me and says, "well, open them for me." I don't know what was going on in his head. The guy is weird. I don't think he hears half of what you say to him.

    I wish the officers would ban them. Apparently they banned a guy in the past. I wonder how bad he must have been.

    Not that guy, but I can tell you're a twerp from your whiny posts. You're pretty close to getting filtered, tbh.

    Hello, fellow tripcode user. You made a mistake by not deleting the name and trip out of the name field. Maybe that's just as planned,eh fellow tripfag? What makes you think your use of a tripcode/name is any different?

    Calm down, he was whining about being disliked over the internet as if it matters. No need to jump to his defense.

    I was the supplier for my club and would basically stack the vote so they couldn't pick anything that was complete shit. Although they still disappointed me in certain stuff that bombed that I thought for sure would go over well.

    Karekano for example I think I got thru about 5 eps of ppl constantly bitching and moaning before scrapping it. Despite the fact they loved Kiminozo...

    The difference is in my level of retardedness. I keep mine at 6/10, whereas you seem to be pushing 8 or 9.

    >Hate Kare Kano
    >Loved KimiNozo

    I guess the animation style of Kare Kano really threw them for a loop. That's the only decent explaination.
