Here's what we will be showing at the Club Meeting this weekend:
Noon - 12:50 Asobi ni Iku yo! 1-2
[Source:
Wikipedia] The story revolves around Kakazu Kio, an ordinary high school freshman living in
Okinawa. A
girl with cat ears
appears before him during a memorial service for one of his family
ancestors. The girl calls herself Elis and claims she is an alien.
Before long, fanatical alien worshipers and a mysterious government
agency are in hot pursuit of Elis, but Kio's childhood friend Manami —
who wants to follow in her father's footsteps in the CIA — captures
Elis. Kio finds himself having to protect Elis from everyone. The
episode starts with three members of different factions listening
to a special newscast about an alien message, the first part of which
has been translated to mean "coming to play". One of the members is then
called to battle aboard an enemy ship. She successfully infiltrates the
ship and disarms the Captain. The situation is disrupted by a
UFO
passing too close to both ships. When the same member comes to, the
enemy captain detonates the ship. Later, during a memorial service for
one of his ancestors, Kio Kakuzu
finds a cat-like alien sitting at the buffet table. The alien
introduces herself as Elis, and the two have a short conversation before
Kio accidentally drinks beer and passes out. The next morning, Kio
wakes up with a hangover and finds Elis sleeping half naked next to him
in bed. Kio's startled cry wakes her up, and she heals his hangover with
a handheld device. Manami Kinjō and Maki Itokazu then visit Kio, and
upon seeing Elis
half naked and with cat ears and a tail, they misinterpret the
situation, thinking that Kio brought a girl home and forced her to
cosplay
all night. After discovering that Elis is an alien, they both abruptly
leave without saying why. Kio goes on a walk to gather his thoughts and
runs into Aoi Futaba, who asks Kio on a date. Aoi is interupted by a man
in a car who she names as her Uncle. He offers her a ride home. It is
later revealed that Manami is in recruiting to become part of the
CIA, Aoi is a Momiji for the Immigration Bureau of
Japan, and Itokazu is
the leader of an organization of SF fans called "Beautiful Contact",
and they are all given orders to eliminate Elis.
12:50 - 1:15 Shiki 3
[Source: Wikipedia] Seishin works on a novel called "Shiki", which describes the undead.
Natsuno goes to school and meets his best friend, Mutou Tohru, along
with Ritsuko. He hitches a ride with them to Mizobe, where they later
meet up with a fellow classmate, Masao Murasako, who intensely dislikes
Natsuno. Masao has an estranged relationship with his family. Natsuno
remembers how he did not want anything to do with the villagers since he
moved here, until he met Tohru. Meanwhile, Toshio still cannot find a
source to the anemia-afflicted victims. His childhood friend, Mikiyasu
Yasumori, brings his wife Nao, who is worsening from anemia. Toshio
questions Mikiyasu if his workers or clients have been behaving
strangely, and Mikiyasu tells him that his family met the Kirishiki
couple a few nights ago. Seishin meets Kirishiki Sunako, who claims to
be a fan of his essays. She hints at knowing his attempted suicide in
the past. Nao passes away the next day from her illness. Masao arrives
at Tohru's house to announce her death and discovers Natsuno staying
over. He almost gets into a fight with Natsuno before Tohru breaks them
up. Tohru goes outside to get a soft drink and meets Tatsumi, who is the
Kirishiki's steward. He ominously tells Tohru that he will be meeting
him again very soon.

widescale conflict which will engulf the entire world of Geminar is
about to begin.
2:00 - 2:50 Umineko no Naku Koro ni 23-24
[Source: Wikipedia]
In 1998, Ange interrogates relatives of the Rokkenjima murder victims
and hires a boat captain to take her to Rokkenjima, discovering
Sakutaro's torn remains as well. In 1986, the cousins are informed of
Kinzo's test from the hostages in Kuwadorian and are forced to lock
Gohda and Kumasawa in the storehouse to keep them from interfering.
Jessica and George are individually tested by Ronove and Gaap,
respectively, and instructed to choose which of the islanders will be
next to die: themselves, their true loves (Shannon for George and Kanon
for Jessica), or everyone else. Jessica chooses herself for Kanon's sake
so that he may live his life to the fullest, while George chooses
everyone else as he is willing to go so far for his love for Shannon to
be accepted. Unwilling to leave the hostages in the dungeon, however,
Jessica and George defiantly engage their respective demons in combat.
Jessica and George are about to land their final blows on their
opponents when Gaap teleports the two into each other, killing them both
as their magically-empowered attacks collide. Temporarily resurrected
by Ronove as a favor, Jessica calls Battler at the guesthouse to warn
him of their enemies' magic. Meanwhile, the hostages are able to break
out of Kuwadorian, but are killed off one by one on their way to the
mansion until only Kyrie remains. Before she too is killed, Kyrie calls
Battler as well and tells him to believe in witches. Afterward, Maria is
sent off to take her test when Battler receives another phone call,
this time from the newly revived Beatrice, and heads off to confront
her, discovering Gohda and Kumasawa dead in the storehouse along the
way. Beatrice gives Battler his test: to remember a sin he committed six
years ago. However, Battler is clueless as to what that may be, much to
Beatrice's frustration, prompting her to take her anger out on Kinzo by
spontaneously killing him. Having lost her interest in the game,
Beatrice decides to abandon it by deeming Battler unqualified to be her
opponent, revealing that his birth mother was not Rudolf's first wife
Asumu as he had believed, and claiming that he is not Kinzo's grandson
Battler, the only one eligible to fight her. Questioning his own
identity, Battler fades away, and Beatrice retires to the newly opened
Golden Land with Maria.
2:50 - 3:15 The World God Only Knows 1
[Source:
Wikipedia] Keima Katsuragi, a second-year high school student, is an avid
bishōjo game player. He is known on the Internet as "
The Capturing God (落とし神, Otoshi-gami?)" for his legendary skills to be able to "capture" any
2D girl in games. However, in his actual school life, Keima is known as
otamegane (オタメガネ), a derogatory
portmanteau of the two words
otaku (オタク) and
megane
(メガネ-"glasses") and is considered nothing but an intelligent yet gloomy
geek with glasses. At the start of the series, Keima receives an e-mail
offering him a
contract to "capture" girls. When he accepts it, thinking it is an
invitation to a game, a demon from Hell named Elsie appears. She asks
for his cooperation to help her in catching runaway spirits. These
spirits hide themselves inside the hearts of girls', and Elsie suggests
that the only method to force the spirits out is by "capturing" the
girls hearts—making them fall in love with him and filling up the gaps
which the runaway spirits hide in. Interested only in 2D girls, however,
Keima is appalled by the idea and refuses the assignment as he has no
romantic real life experiences whatsoever. Nevertheless, with the
contract already agreed, Keima has no choice but to help Elsie no matter
what as they will be beheaded if they fail. While the series focuses on
Keima and Elsie adventures on capturing
spirits, the series also makes fun and parodying common and popular
cliches about dating sims, anime character stereotypes and pop culture.

4:15 - 5:15 Katanagatari 6
[Source: Wikipedia] Shichika Yasuri, the main character of the story.After living on a
certain island in the country of Tamba
for the past twenty years, he is sought out by Togame with a mission to
find twelve unique swords. As a practitioner of the Kyotōryuu school of
swordplay, he does not use a single sword when fighting, instead using
his hands and legs as his primary weapons. In a sense, he is actually a
physical fighter, but since he uses hand-chops, he considers it to be an
art of the sword. The reason why he practices Kyotōryuu is because the
Yasuri family has no talent in handling swords, which dates back to as
far as the first head of the school, Kazune Yasuri. He is in love with
Togame and will do anything she tells him to do; however, he sometimes
considers her orders a hassle. After defeating Hakuhei Sabi and
retrieving his sword, Shichika also inherits Hakuhei's title and becomes
known as the strongest swordsman in Japan. His catchphrase is "but
before then you'll be torn to pieces". Togame is a self-titled strategian. She arrives on the island where Shichika
resides in order to seek his help with finding the final twelve swords
forged by Shikizaki Kiki. Her father was Takahito Hida, the leader of
the last rebellion and also one of the people Mutsue Yasuri had killed
back then; this makes Shichika the son of Togame's father's killer. The
reason behind her seeking help from Shichika is that he has no reason to
keep the swords for himself and she believes that people who work for
love can be trusted the most; that is why she tells Shichika to fall for
her. She has a habit of saying "cheerio" while punching Shichika.
5:15 - 6:05 Occult Academy 4-5
[Source: Wikipedia] The story revolves around Maya, the daughter of
the former Headmaster of
a private Japanese academy dedicated to the study of the occult, and
time traveling agent Fumiaki Uchida, a mysterious young man who travels
back in time from 2012. In 1999, Maya returns to the Academy, both for
her father's funeral and for her goal to destroy the Academy, as she
hates everything occult. Occult Academy is apparently situated in Nagano, as the Matsushiro Underground Imperial Headquarters are shown to be nearby.[4] In episode 10 the acedemy was actually Maya's Christmas gift therefore giving her a reason of not destroying the school. Maya successfully assumes her father's place as the academy's
headmistress. She later meets Fumiaki Uchida whom makes his appearance
from the future. Having no luck in finding the Nostradamus Key, Bunmei meets Mikaze
Nakagawa at the diner she works in. Meanwhile, people are mysteriously
disappearing around the city.
6:05 - 6:30 Shinryaku! Ika Musume 1
[Source: Wikipedia] Angered by the pollution in the seas, a squid girl named Ika Musume
comes from the sea and declares the invasion of Earth at a nearby
yakisoba stand, but isn't taken seriously due to her small stature. When
she goes to plead her case, she is mistaken for a waitress, which puts
the responsibility of invading the world into perspective. When she
breaks a hole in the store with her tentacles trying to hit a mosquito,
the store manager, Eiko Aizawa, puts her to work in order to pay for the
damages. Later, Ika meets Eiko's little brother, Takeru, who goes to
great lengths to pretend to be a squidperson so he can be Ika's comrade.
During a rainy day where there are few customers, Ika takes the
opportunity to try and take over the stand, but is overpowered by the
eldest sister, Chizuru. As punishment, Ika is forced to use her own ink
to make Squid Ink Spaghetti, which becomes popular.
6:30 - 8:00 Eden of the East - Movie 2: Paradise Lost
[Source: Wikipedia] The story of political and subversive intrigue in the series finally
reaches endgame. Even as the law enforcement net tightens around Saki
and her fellow Eden of the East associates over alleged terrorist
activities, the complex web surrounding the mysterious Mr. Outside is
finally untangled as the remaining Selecao attempt to outmaneuver one
another. Takizawa's memories and identity are also finally revealed
including his association with a former Prime Minister and his request
to be the King of Eden.
