Well, if we can get this started, I'd love to create a group of hardcore, or even mildly-interested anime, manga or visual novel fans. There aren't many, if any, of these groups around Sydney, and it'd be cool if we could get one started!

I know a lot of Uni's do stuff like this, but for those of us who have either already left Uni, don't go to Uni or haven't gone yet; it'd be a cool chance for us to get together, and meet some new people (and if you're like me, to get out of the house more!).

Hopefully we could do anime screenings, get together for conventions (like Animania or Supernova), have manga reading times as well as time just to hang out and chat. Plus time for any other interest we might have in common. All ages and genders would be welcome of course!

If you're interested in doing something like this (and live in the general Sydney area) please post here and we'll see if we can figure something out!

Oh, and just to introduce myself, my name is Andrew, i'm 17 and currently in my least year of high school. And, of course, i'm an anime otaku!

Hi Barkera,

Have you looked at the Madboards? There's a pretty good listing of Sydney clubs on there at this url. And the sheer range should mean that there is a club near you that does what you want, or could if you get involved.

Otherwise I hope you have success starting your own!

I agree with you about the university groups. I tried to talk to someone at my university about this big folder they had about anime reviews. She admitted that she had actually just downloaded these reviews from the net and had only watched a handful of the animes. Her friend then tried to show me guy on guy hentai pictures...


MORAL OF THE STORY: Stay away from university groups!
