Event Afternoon and Screening on Saturday 29th February 2020

Event Afternoon before JAFWA Screening

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

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

Welcome to the JAFWA screening of February 29th, that happens after the Event arvo. This is the fabled 5th Saturday in February, something that is not seen often.

This week during the Dinner Break we will have a survey to determine what programs that JAFWA screens/screened that you like, an opportunity to vote your favourite preview episode into becoming a regular item.

Eizoukan niwa Te o Dasu na!

The Special General Meeting during the Dinner Break of Feb 22ndresulted in agreement that the next marathon screening will not be at the end of year, but hopefully a cooler day.
Do recall that this year is JAFWA’s 30th anniversary.

There is a possibility that JAFWA and anime club POWA (screening Sundays in Joondalup) might join forces to host an Anime Quiz Night, perhaps on July 4th. Anybody interested?

JAFWA is doing a Bunnings Sausage Sizzle on May 2nd, down at Cannington. We would appreciate a couple of volunteers to help out.

Shigeo Kageyama’s nickname is “Mob”. A slang term for a background character, someone who doesn’t stand out. In truth he is an incredibly powerful psychic who has suppressed his emotions in order to avoid causing a catastrophe. Mob would like nothing better than to live a normal life and have feelings just like anyone else, but with his incredible psychic powers there’s no telling what might happen if he did.

In the year 198 of the Age of the Sun, Tokyo is a crowded cosmopolis. But the world’s most populous city is threatened by devils that cause people to burst into flame at random. The only ones who can stop it are the Pyrofighters, a team of specialized firefighters.

But he’s not the best at following orders.

Sword Art Online: Alicization (series 3 part 2) “War of Underworld”

Kazuto has been recruited to assist in testing an experimental FullDive machine, Soul Translator (STL), which has an interface that is far more realistic and complex than the previous machine he had played to help develop an artificial intelligence for the Ministry of Defense (MOD) named A.L.I.C.E. He tests the STL by entering a virtual reality cyberspace created with The Seed package, named UnderWorld (UW). In the UW, the flow of time proceeds a thousand times faster than in the real world, and Kirito’s memories of what happens inside are restricted.

Tonight’s Episode:Battle of the Knights

In Underworld, the Eastern gate has fallen, and the Dark Territory army proceed to storm into the Human Empire, with a variety of tactics. Standing in front are Deuselbert Synthesis 7, Fanatio Synthesis 2, and Eldrie Synthesis 31. Standing further back is Bercouli Synthesis 1 with his Time-Splitting Sword on standby, and the cowardly Renly Synthesis 27. As enemies and allies are being killed, Alice, hiding up in the shadows, is collecting the sacred power being released from the corpses to build up a laser bomb made of sacred art.

Tanjiro Kamado is a kindhearted and intelligent boy who lives with his family, making money by selling charcoal. Everything changes when his family is attacked and slaughtered by demons (oni). Tanjiro and his sister Nezuko are the sole survivors of the incident. Nezuko has now become a demon, but still surprisingly shows signs of human emotion and thought. Tanjiro becomes a demon slayer to help his sister turn human again and to prevent the same tragedy that happened to him and his sister, from happening to others.

Tonight’s Episode:Muzan Kibutsuji

Tanjiro enters the demons’ swamp to fight two of them, while Nezuko protects Kazumi and the human girl from the other. Although the air is thin and the swamp is dark, his Water Style shows its true power when underwater. Trying to interrogate the demon regarding Kibutsuji Muzan is surprisingly unhelpful, though Muzan might be closer than expected.

Cop Craft

15 years ago, an unknown hyperspace gate opened over the Pacific. Beyond this gate lies Reto Semaani, a strange alternate world where fairies and demons live. San Teresa City — a city where over two million immigrants live from both worlds. As a result, there are the haves and the have-nots. Here is the world’s newest “city of dreams.” But in the shadow of the chaos, crime is rampant: drugs, prostitution, and weapon trafficking. The detectives who stand up to these heinous crimes are in the San Teresa City Police. When the detective Kei Matoba and the alternate-world knight Tirana — two individuals who differ in gender, personality, and even world of origin — meet, an incident erupts.

Tonight’s Episode:Girls On Ice

Tilarna is roped into helping Zoe move when she finds out that Zoe is a skilled photographer who dreams of opening her own exhibition some day.

Ignatov and Kisaragi learn that each of the suicide bombers had been treated in Heaven’s Leap’s sanctuary with a Hue treatment called “Eternal White.” Bifrost continues to manipulate events although Homura bets that Public Safety will succeed.
