Well after a very successful Summer we will be continuing Anime Knight into the Fall of 2010. This fall marks our 1 year anniversary. For this semester the line up will be as follows.
Fall A: First 7 weeks:
Toradora
Fall B: Last 7 weeks:
Death Note
Both will be shown in HD at our apartment. We will also be keeping you all updated on other events that we are planning.
The Meeting times are as follows:
Friday Nights at 9pm.
Sunday, 27 June, 2010
For the final night of "SDF Macross" this summer we will be changing the night to Tuesday at 6pm at David's house. If you want directions please let me know through email or contact David directly and he would be more than happy to give you directions.
Starting next week we will be changing the anime from "Yamato" to "Ghost Hunt" due to the fact that since anime knight started last fall we have been doing space animes and have yet to do one that has nothing to do with space. This is also a series that none of the members have seen before and should be very interesting. If you want more info on this series please check out the upcoming anime tab.

Welcome to Anime Knight's official website. I, Matthew, will be maintaining this site so that everyone can keep up to date with what is going on. This will also be a place to talk about the latest episodes that we have watched. I will quickly run over what we have watched so far.
Fall 2009
Eureka Seven:
Renton Thurston is a 14-year-old boy who lived with his mechanic grandfather in a backwater town. Every day he dreamed of being with the mercenary "Light Finding Operation (LFO)" aircraft pilot group "Gekkostate" and riding "Trapar" particle waves-- a sport called "reffing"-- with their charismatic leader Holland, especially when faced with his father's acclaimed past or his grandfather's desire to protect him. When a young girl named Eureka riding the original LFO, the "Nirvash typeZERO", asks his grandfather for a tune-up, she inadvertently brings the attention of the military to the garage; as a result, the garage is destroyed and Renton is forced to deliver a new type of interface-- the "Amita Drive"-- to the Nirvash. After a heated fight in which the Nirvash destroys the military LFOs by unleashing an immense amount of power, Renton is invited into Gekkostate. However, he quickly realizes that behind the facade of a traveling group of mercenaries is a very bitter reality. [Anime News Network]

Planetes
In the year 2075, mankind has reached a point where journeying between Earth, the moon and the space stations is part of daily life. However, the progression of technology in space has also resulted in the problem of the space debris, which can cause excessive and even catastrophic damage to spacecrafts and equipment. This is the story of Technora's Debris Collecting section, its EVA worker, Hachirota "Hachimaki" Hoshino, and the newcomer to the group, Ai Tanabe. [Anime News Network]
