Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu is on hiatus. Couldn’t tell you why, but ADV Films has been incommunicado regarding screening permissions for the past couple weeks; add this to the fact that their website is down due to Hurricane Ike, and we’re left with little choice but to put off showing the rest of the series, at least for now. Sorry! >_<
In the meantime, we’ll have Black Cat take up its stead. And as for the rest of Saturday’s schedule, there’s a new poll up full of fansubbed, unlicensed anime goodness. No screening permissions required there, so vote for a show this week and watch it this weekend!
Speaking of this weekend, we’ll have a couple different things going on to keep it fresh:
The first, which will take place at roughly 2:00pm Saturday, will be a round-table club discussion. Myself and the rest of Club’s officers will be laying out plans for the rest of the semester, and your input will be welcome and valued. So if you’d have any ideas for club and its direction, be sure to voice them!
Second, the judging of the Club Logo contest, will happen during Saturday’s Intermission (4:30). All club members are invited to take in an eyeful of the entries, and select that which is deemed most worthy of the glorious $25.00 RightStuf! gift certificate. I can’t wait to see what you’ve all come up with!
And if you’re an angelic artist or a devilish designer who’s not yet considered entering the contest, get in on it! There’s no entrance fee, and you have nothing to lose!
Seriously. We’re giving away $25.00. Give it a shot!
New anime descriptions follow after the link:
CLANNAD: School life dramedy based on the game by Key (Air and Kanon).
Macross Frontier: Space drama with aliens, love triangles, mechs, and massive space battles.
Soul Eater: Halloween action with death gods, cat witches, and sidekick weaponry.
Dennou Coil: Science fiction with a focus on augmented reality and children’s interaction with it.

Kyouran Kazoku Nikki: Zany supernatural family anime, emphasis on the zany.
Skull Man: Mystery/Detective anime about a reporter on the trail of a killer with a skull mask.

Over the weekend Hurricane Ike hit the Huston, Texas area which is where ADV is based hince the unresponsive-ness of ADV to our e-mail for showing FUMOFFU? in club.

Thanks for clarifying that! It may still be some time before we can start showing Fumoffu again, but at least we now know the cause of ADV’s unresponsiveness.
Update: ADV VP of sales Mike Bailiff has announced that they will be returning to there offices tomorrow (Sep. 17)
