The Manga Book Club will have its next meeting on Saturday, Nov. 14. We'll be watching the next 3 episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist, starting with episode 22--the one where Winry discovers that Scar was the man who killed her parents.
I originally thought that we would be taking a Thanksgiving break this year. However, it turns out that we'll be able to go ahead and have our regular meeting on the 28th, the Saturday after Thanksgiving (if you aren't too stuffed with turkey leftovers and pumpkin pie to come on up here.)

Manga Book Club Meeting, 10/31/09
The Manga Book Club will have its next meeting on Saturday, Oct. 31--Halloween! If you want to come in costume, feel free. We'll be watching the next 3 episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist, starting with episode 19--my personal favorite of the series so far. It features an absolutely awesome showdown between Mustang and Lust and I could watch it over and over again. Episodes 20 and 21 are pretty awesome, too.

Teen Anime Club
Our next Mesquite Teen Anime Club is Thursday, September 24, 2009, at 5:30 p.m in the front meeting room at the Main Library. We will be screening: Bleach, the movie 2: The Diamond Dust Rebellion.
Captain of squad 10, Toshiro Hitsugaya's past catches up with him. Someone from his past who has the same Zanpakto returns from the dead. And what is it about the Central 46? Central 46 did a lot of things in the past that now seem to be catching up to them in the series and in the movies. First, the Bounts... then the Brotherhood of Darkness from the first movie.. now this? And they aren't even around anymore since former captain of squad 5, Sosuke Aizen, assassinated them.
Anyway, the plot thickens, so see the second movie of the Bleach lexicon, "The Diamond Dust Rebellion" at the Main Library, dubbed in English.
What: Bleach the movie 2: The Diamond Dust Rebellion.
Where: Mesquite Main Public Library, 300 W. Grubb Dr., Mesquite, TX 75149.
When: Thursday, September 24, 2009, at 5:30 P.M.
Who: Teens aged 12 to 18.
This movie is rated T for teens. It is 90 minutes long. We'll watch some trailers of other anime available from Viz Media and/or we'll watch some extras provided on the DVD in order to pass the last 30 minutes. We will start promptly at 5:30 p.m., however, we WILL let you in if you are late, so please attend, if you can!
Any questions, please call Cheryl at the library at 972-216-6220. Hope to see you there!

Manga Book Club Meeting, 9/5/09
The Manga Book Club will have its next meeting on Saturday, Sept. 5. I am so thrilled to say that we have finally overcome our technical difficulties and were able to watch 3 episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood without skips, hiccups, or waiting for the buffer to fill. I know that had been very frustrating, and I appreciate your patience while we figured things out.

Manga Book Club Meeting, 8/8/2009
Well, we're still trying to come up with the best procedure for streaming the Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood episodes from the computer through the projector. We are getting better--we watched two episodes this past week. The next episode is the one with Nina and Alexander (sniff, sniff.)
While we were waiting for the episodes to fill the buffer so we could watch without hiccups and interruptions, we watched some other short videos--like the Potter Puppet Pals "The Mysterious Ticking Noise" which I think is the most clever of the videos that Neil Cicierega has done.
BTW, we are in the planning process for a new program starting in January for 6th grade and up called "Get in the Game." It would be on alternating Thursdays at 4:00 or 4:30. We are looking at getting the proper equipment for Dance Dance Revolution, and have discussed board games like Monopoly, Clue, or Trivial Pursuit. I'd like some input from you guys as to the sort of things you'd like to see--board games, video games, or something else. (And before you ask, we will probably not be getting any shoot-em-up or Grand Theft Auto type games. DDR and Guitar Hero are much more our style.
Anyway, our next meeting will be on Saturday, August 8, from 4:00-6:00. We'll talk about manga, or possible games, or maybe just have a bit of silly chaos like we did last time, and then watch a couple of episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood--three if we're lucky.
What: Manga Book Club
When: Saturday, August 8, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m.
Where: Mesquite North Branch Library, 2600 Oates Dr.
