Hello Everyone,
Weekly Showing
This week we are continuing to use Discord as our platform of choice for our online showings. If you join the new Streaming Channel voice chat on Tuesday at 7pm BST, you will find we are showing the following, in this order:
- Glass Mask (2005) / Glass no Kamen (2005) (MAL)
- “Adapted from one of the bestselling shoujo manga’s of all time, Glass Mask tells the story of Maya Kitajima, whose passion for acting is seemingly constrained by her poor upbringing. However, a chance encounter with a legendary actress catapults her, head first, into the world of acting. Thus, with the stage as her oyster, Maya embarks on her journey to become the best actress she can possibly be, facing many new opportunities, as well as perils, along the way.” - Chih-Hsiang, El Presidente
-
When They Cry / Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (MAL)
- “Higurashi is what happens when someone took the genre tag ‘slice of life’ too literally, and started giving anime characters cleavers and kitchen knives and told them to come out swinging. Maebara Keiichi just arrived at his new home in the quaint village of Hinamizawa only to ultimately discover there is something decisively not right about the customs of the village and its local God, Oyashiro” - Alex, Secretary
