Screening on the evening of Saturday, October 12^th 2024

While some parts of this country has gone to Daylight Savings, JAFWA has returned to its normal hours, where 5PM is a little too early and 11PM will see the place locked up. So rejoice that JAFWA has returned for October, and give thanks to the hard-working Librarian Kris and his Sun Disactivator.

Your beloved JAFWA committee has re-arranged the program for the rest of the year so that as few as possible regular series are forced to take a long break over the end of year. This will result in a few nights where we screen more than one episode of a particular series. Though we hope to sneak in a couple of preview episodes here and there.
This week will be two episodes of “Spice and Wolf”, as well as two episodes of “Zom 100” to improve your anime viewing.

If you don’t want to sponsor an entire night like Lindsay did in March, and the one coming in November, there is the other scheme for our signed up members. On the night nearest your birthday, you can nominate something to play during the Dinner Break (limited to 30 minutes max). You may have to help us source this material, so plan in advance please.

And there is the end of year irregular screening to consider. What do you want to see in it?

Screening on the evening of Saturday, September 28^th 2024

It is the last Saturday in September. The last time this year that JAFWA will operate in Winter hours. The last time this year under Winter Hours that JAFWA will have our monthly survey and member’s prize draw.
Yes, you too can hope to influence the direction of JAFWA by filling in our survey form during the Dinner Break. Inform us what anime titles shown at JAFWA are most important to you, so that it might help filter through the large number of anime titles coming out of Japan as we attempt to decide what preview episode to screen in future.
And never forget the monthly member’s prize – the more times you attend, the more chances to win!

Your beloved JAFWA committee is still re-arranging the program for the rest of the year so that as few as possible regular series are forced to take a long break over the end of year. This may result in a few nights where we screen more than one episode of a particular series. Enjoy!

While Tokyo Underground may have been forced to shutdown in Perth, Bronwyn still has plenty of stock and an urge to keep the shop open. So she has just opened up a neat and tidy (dare I say cute) little stall 50 at the Wanneroo Weekend Markets on Prindiville Drive in Wangara. Come check it out on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays (and Public Holidays).

If you don’t want to sponsor an entire night like Lindsay did in March, and the one coming in November, there is the other scheme for our signed up members.

Screening on the evening of Saturday, August 10^th 2024

It is time to Spring into anime at your friendly JAFWA screening. Don’t worry, as we are still operating on Winter Hours still, for the rest of this month.

This week JAFWA had been thinking we would be starting some new regular series this week, but deliberations have pushed that back to next week. Instead we will have a couple of series finish this week by showing the last two episodes, as well as a preview episode to soothe the people distressed at the delay in getting the second season of “The Apothecary Diaries”.

If you don’t want to sponsor an entire night like Lindsay did in March, and the one coming in November, there is the other scheme for our signed up members.

Event Afternoon before JAFWA Screening

JAFWA has the hall from about 1PM to 4:30PM, where it is make our own amusement time.

Does anyone want hall space for nerf gun battles? Bring your own ping-pong? Table top games? Does anybody have their own game machine and games they want their fellow JAFWAites to play? JAFWA will bring out the projector and screen. I am not certain we have access to the outdoor area, but we will try to keep you off the street.
In the past people have brought along video games and the hardware to play them, and sewing machines for cosplay creating. What do you want to do? Just so long as it fun, legal, ethical, and we don’t scuff the floor of the Hall.

Screening on the evening of Saturday, August 31^st 2024, after the Event Afternoon

With the ending of this last month of Winter (according to the Bureau of Meteorology) and you know what that means – it is the monthly Member’s Prize draw!
Also, we will be having quick survey during the Dinner Break to see which items are enjoyed by the membership, so please be honest and assign scalar values to your choices.

This week JAFWA doesn’t have room for any preview episodes, as we are screening a nice gentle movie set in a very interesting department store.
And we farewell “Undead Unluck”, as it comes to the end of this chapter of the story. Will more anime be forthcoming? Check our library for manga that reveals the story yet to be animated.
And we are still pained that last week “The Apothecary Diaries” finished with no clear timeline until the next season of the anime is made.

If you don’t want to sponsor an entire night like Lindsay did in March, and the one coming in November, there is the other scheme for our signed up members. On the night nearest your birthday, you can nominate something to play during the Dinner Break (limited to 30 minutes max). You may have to help us source this material, so plan in advance please.

Screening on the evening of Saturday, August 17^th 2024

Last week a wonderful night was had by all, and the weather was so pleasant we almost needed our Sun Disactivator.
Meanwhile the speculation is rife if the anime within-an-anime “Alice in Nerima-Land” might possibly become a real anime.

This week JAFWA starts a new regular series – the popular “Go! Go! Loser Ranger!” will be replacing “Demon Slayer”, and because we saw the preview episode barely a month ago, we will continue with episode #2 this week. And we has also managed to fit in a preview episode that involves how to deal with a (Dai-)Kaijuu attack aftermath.

For those of you who are interested, the Japanese Film Festival has gone from showing a series of Japanese movies online, to now showing TV episodes.

If you don’t want to sponsor an entire night like Lindsay did in March, and the one coming in November, there is the other scheme for our signed up members. On the night nearest your birthday, you can nominate something to play during the Dinner Break (limited to 30 minutes max). You may have to help us source this material, so plan in advance please.
