[Anime] GFF Anime Club

Oh yeah we've started. More fun time with Fantastic Children and Astro Fighter Sunred~

How ya doing, buddy?

Alright this week we'll be doing an extra few episodes per session to finish up both shows this week so I hope you guys are up to the challenge. See you in a few minutes. Woo!

How ya doing, buddy?

Sorry for starting so late. We'll be finishing up both Fantastic Children and Astro Fighter Sunred tonight. Next week is the one year anniversary of broadcasting the gff anime club. I can't really figure what I'd want to do to make it special or anything so I'll probably just make it a nice movie week. I'm thinking A Tree of Palme, Catnapped!, and Robot Carnival. Same creator of Fantastic Children worked on all of those as well. Should be interesting if not certainly artsy. I hope to see you there if not in a few minutes when I start tonight's stream.

Most amazing jew boots

Aw, well perhaps this will give me some slight motivation to work on the archives.

Anyway, I'll be starting tonight's show in perhaps 20 to 30 minutes. Hard to believe that come tomorrow it'll have been a year since I started broadcasting anime club. It's been rough and I've certainly slacked in some regards but I'm glad to have had you guys for so long. I hope you all enjoy this movie week.

Since this week is also the one year anniversary I might as well ask for you to make comments on what you've enjoyed this past year. Any unexpected shows that you really liked? Favorite moments? Things you hated? Things I could do better? Ideas? Anything? I'd love to know what you think on any of all this and more.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Finishing up this week we're watching Catnapped and Robot Carnival. I've seen neither or at least not most of Robot Carnival so I'm rather pumped for it. Next week we'll be continuing Astro Fighter Sunred on its second season and I believe Dennou Coil will be in the more serious/interesting slot as a recommendation by pack. Anyway hope to see you in the stream for movie time tonight. Should be interesting.

How ya doing, buddy?

lol no you didn't - as my last post said tonight was catnapped and robot carnival - i was merely saying what we'd start next week

nice to see a post in this thread not made by me though so <3

might as well throw out the anything i could be doing better bit again - there it is

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Starting Dennou Coil and Astro Fighter Sunred 2 tonight. Hope to see you guys in the stream shortly.

FELIPE NO

More Dennou Coil and Sunred this evening. Hope to see you in the stream shortly. I'm waiting~

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

It's been like 4 months since I last showed Baccano on the weekend. I'm gonna actually finish it up tonight. Amazing - I know. See you guys in a couple minutes.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Of all things I appear to be a bit earlier than usual. I seem to start more like after 9 PM or something these days. Anyway I'm just waiting in the stream for people so I can start Dennou Coil. More of that and Astro Fighter Sunred tonight. =I

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Starting a bit late tonight. Yeah... so much for 9 PM being a new standard feh...

Finishing Astro Fighter Sunred tonight so we'll be need a new comedy when I return from vacation. Yeah no anime club or waw next week (most likely).

See you in a couple minutes hopefully.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Okay, this has probably been a long time coming but it's something that needs to be done. I'm going on hiatus after this week. Having completed 2 out of 3 shows I will be marathoning seven episodes of Dennou Coil each night this week completing it on Thursday. There will also be one more WAW on Wednesday for those of you that double dip. After that I will be on hiatus only doing Let's Play streams every now and then.

Why am I doing this? A couple reasons actually.

1) I have a huge backlog of shows that need archiving and that means both actually going through and encoding, timing, and doing html bullshit and also rebroadcasting a good amount of shows locally that got cut short due to technical difficulties and other unforeseen crap that was out of my control that left me with partial recordings. So I will taking some of the hiatus time to just rebuild a proper archive and hopefully get a nice system down so I can keep it going well when I break hiatus.

2) I'll be returning to school and until I can figure out how that will work for me it might be a good thing I'm not doing shows. Depending on my school schedule I may have to shuffle the streaming schedule around to different days and/or times.

3) Attendance has honestly been pretty poor (even for WAW) and that could be attributed to waning interest, conflicting schedules on the part of viewers, my inconsistent broadcast start time, disinterest in what is showing, and/or disinterest with my stream entirely. I realize you all have your own lives and it's just another dumb stream on the Internet. Some of my fondest memories were when I started this thing up and had some funny regulars from #gfchat that got me into this to begin with but they have since either lost interest or have conflicting schedules. I regret not being able to satisfy everyone's schedule and that was what the archives were for and I think neglecting them is part of how I lost some of my audience. Another thing is general apathy I see in the forums and even this thread. When I started this thing I thought it would be more like the simulcast threads on something awful where we watch a couple episodes and then while we do some fun mst3k hijinks in the stream chat we'd then come back to the thread and talk more seriously about what we're watching. Instead it's usually just me chiming in with a post indicating I'm starting the stream soon and maybe a post asking for show requests met usually with no responses. I'm not perfect and I do shoot down some ideas but I think I've been fair and meeting requests too. In any case it is true that attendance has been rather low. The best events I do are still the rare Drink On and my Let's Plays and as such those will be the only streams I'll do during the hiatus.

For those of you that have been with me through most of this I really appreciate you being there and all the bullshit you have put up with me. If this was the thing that really made your Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights then I'm really sorry that I'm letting you down. Hopefully when I come back it will be a more consistent program with a honest to goodness archive kept up to date regularly and hopefully a better attended stream. Thank you all so much again for making this one hell of a thing. Here's to one more week and then it shall be hiatus time. Feel free to let me know what you think of all this and of course any suggestions that I should take into account during the down time.

How ya doing, buddy?

o u~ <3<3<3<3<3<3<3

also reiterating that i will still be doing let's plays and drink on's during hiatus

I was speaking idiomatically.

loool

well anyway starting late not that this is unusual but come on in for 7 episodes of Dennou Coil

we'll be starting very soon as soon as enough people show up (three hopefully - including me)

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Wow I don't think I could prop that post enough. Certainly gives a new light to the song and the show. <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

Last night's show ended on a real cliff hanger so I'm eager to see the rest of it on Thursday. Everyone was really getting into it and I must say the seven episode marathon format seems to do well with a good show like this. Three episodes just seems like a tease and so with that in mind I mentioned that I'm considering a new format after the hiatus that would be six or seven episodes of just one show per day. The only problem with this idea is that you have to wait an entire week to see the next batch of episodes. At the same time I had no issue doing this with my weekend shows when I ran them regularly each weekend so the patience is there although being the weekend perhaps the attendance is not.

Speaking of attendance last night got a slow start but we had a good four people actively on the edge of their seats by the end and although the numbers weren't high everyone was piping in and having a good time so thanks again for coming. =)

How ya doing, buddy?

Alrighty starting the last 7 episodes of Dennou Coil soon and then it'll be hiatus time until I get my shit figured out. It's been a pleasure but please remember this is not the end. I am fairly certain the broadcast will return (hopefully soon enough). I do love doing it.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
