As this would make having fun for all who attend 24 Hours of Anime difficult: There is absolutely no heckling. Heckling is ANY disruptive vocal outburst or background noise from microphones turned on. Please keep your mics muted during showings! Otherwise, during our breaks, feel free to turn on your mic and chat with your fellow anime fans. You are welcome to use the #viewings channel in discord to make comments while watching as well.

Because two episodes are not perfectly 60 minutes, for the sake of filling in time, we will be having periodic breaks with AMVs, etc. and/or discussion. This is where you’re able to talk to other people in the call!

Sign in! Show that you attend and that you support the “24 Hours of Anime”! Our sign in form can be found here: https://forms.gle/dXSS2SKgLv1WehCU7

Finally, for your enjoyment and sanity, alternate activities have been made, and will be offered throughout the event:

Starting around 9:30 pm: Among Us in #vc-general 24 Hours of Anime: Hour by Hour

7:00 pm Hidamari Sketch (1-2) Ever since she was young, Yuno has always had an interest in art. Now that she has been accepted to Yamabuki Arts High School, it means one thing—moving out. Living in a dorm at Hidamari Apartments alone, Yuno meets her neighbors: the hyperactive Miyako, the self-conscious Hiro, and the mature Sae. Despite their different personalities, they go to the same school, spend time together, and develop a strong friendship. Yuno's life won't be so lonely after all! Hidamari Sketch revolves around the antics and day-to-day lives of the girls living at Hidamari Apartments. 8:00 pm Choose a Genre The “Choose a Genre” block consists of anime hand-picked and curated by the members of the MarathonCommittee. First, you choose a genre! This will be deter-mined by a simple majority vote. Then, you will be presented with two anime that fit into that genre, also by voting! Vote wisely, as two genres will remain unwatched by the end of theevent. 9:00 pm Viewers’ Choice (Movie Potential) This is the block for you! No really, this block is all about you. During a “Viewer’s Choice” block, we will survey the audience and select five people to propose an anime to watch. Once five titles have been selected, we take a vote and the winner is what we’ll watch for the next hour! There are plenty of Viewer’s Choice blocks throughoutthe event, so don’t worry if you don’t win. We believe in you! 10:00 pm Viewers’ Choice 11:00 pm Choose a Genre 12:00 am Vampire Knight (1-2) Yuki Cross is a first-year general education student at Cross Academy.

Message from the President

Hello anime fans,

This semester has been an interesting one, to say the least. For most of the people I have talked with (with one exception), this semester has been a very difficult and trying one—perhaps it’s fatigue from COVID lockdown? Regardless, we’re finally almost over the semester and about to start summer break! Things are looking very different where we stand now from where we were at the end of last semester. Vaccines are not only approvedbut now widely available. The CDC has just stated that vaccinated people can resume a more-or-less normal life. Things are opening up...but the COVID-19 pandemic is still raging throughout the world. Things are starting to look up, but we’re not out of the woods yet.

In the anime society this semester, we continued to hold our regular meetings on Discord. We enjoyed our scheduled viewings of Terror in Resonance, Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu, Magi, and Yuru Camp. We also enjoyed repeated BYOA nominations of Charlotte and Kotoura-san, among others. I hope that the Anime Society has been able to provide respite from the stresses of this extremely stressful semester, and I hope that we’ll continue to be able to do so. By this time next year (and hopefully in the fall), we might be able to see each other in person again? Here’s hoping for a better and brighter future!
