Week 0 Friday, April 1 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Restaurant to Another World S2 ep 12 (CR, Funi, VRV) 6:55 - 7:45 Orbital Children 5-6 (Netflix) 7:45 - 8 voting on shows, figure out what to sample or re-sample 8 - 8:10 intermission 8:10 - 10:30 Re-samplers (and further voting), likely to include: My Dress-Up Darling (CR, Funi) Miss KUROITSU from the Monster Development Department (CR) Sabikui Bisco (CR, Funi, VRV) In the Land of Leadale (CR) Fallback: Lupin III part 6 eps 11-12 (HD) Short samplers: 180-byou de Kimi no Mimi wo Shiawase ni Dekiru ka? (fs) "Deji" Meets Girl (fs) God of Ten Thousand Realms (YT) Notes: lots of technical issues tonight:
After break, we tried something for Chromes video streaming issues, turning off hardware acceleration in Chrome. That allowed video to be streamed and shared over Discord without an issue. Incidentally, Adam had to take off just before we got to voting. We also got through voting without anyone asking to re-sample shows, then went on to Lupin part 6 eps 11-12. After that… Ya Boy Kongming! (HD) Thermae Romae Novae (Netflix) Attendance:
Saturday, April 2 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Princess Connect! Re:Dive Season 2 eps 12 (CR, VRV) 7:20 - 7:45 Nomad: Megalobox 2 eps 13 (Funi) 7:45 - 8:10 Schedule-building 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 10:30 Blade Runner (BD) Notes: We ran a bit late between schedule-building and break, and then had numerous technical problems trying to stream Blade Runner from David’s computer (default non-VLC player didn’t want to share audio, window manager had issues even trying to copy the file from thumb drive, video froze but audio kept playing just after Rachel walked out of Deckard’s apartment…). We ended up bailing on it at 9:30 and fell back to Samplers: Estab-Life: The Great Escape (CR) - streamed by Adam, with no apparent technical issues Aharen-San Hakarenai (CR) Attendance:
Week 1 Friday, April 8 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 2 (CR) 6:55 - 7:20 Sampler: BIRDIE WING -Golf Girls' Story- (CR) 7:20 - 7:45 In the Land of Leadale 2 (CR) 7:45 - 8:35 Megaton Musashi 2-3 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 Lupin III part 6 eps 11-12 (HD) 9:35 - 10:25 Attack on Titan the Final Season part 2 76-77 (CR) Notes: Adam showed up about halfway through Birdy Wing (which Gene doesn’t appreciate for some reason). Attendance:
Saturday, April 9 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 1 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 The aquatope on white sand 13-14 (CR) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 1 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:45 Samplers The Executioner and Her Way of Life (HD) Miss Shachiku and the Little Baby Ghost (CR) 9:45 - 10:35 Feature: One Pound Gospel (YT) Notes: Brian was attending via Discord tonight. We spent a few minutes accidentally watching Kaguya-sama S2 ep 1 instead of S3 ep 1. David also had to restart his computer after Kaugya-Sama. Technical issues continued with David’s computer, so after the intermission we switched to having Adam stream. David had technical issues even after that - we stopped getting video (but not audio) - David suspects it’s an issue with his window manager crashing. We restarted after David ran an OS update. Technical issues took up enough time that we didn't get to the feature. We missed the last several minutes of The Executioner and Her Way of Life, and Crunchyroll decided to stop streaming (to any of us) partway through Miss Shachiku and the Little Baby Ghost; we should probably re-sample parts of those episodes. Next week, as a backup Alan should bring: To feed the projector USB-C to HDMIT adapter AppleTV (old or new) To get video from Discord IPad Laptop Attendance:
Week 2 Friday, April 15 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 3 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 In the Land of Leadale 3-4 (CR) 7:45 - 8:35 Megaton Musashi 4-5 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 Lupin III part 6 eps 15-16 (HD) HiDive wasn't working, so we watched some samplers Mahjong Soul Pon☆ eps 0-2 (CR) 9:35 - 10:25 Attack on Titan the Final Season part 2 78-79 (CR) Notes: David said he’d be late - and he was, showing up right at the end of Leadale. We found that trying to play Megaton Musashi via VLC no video was shared (it’s probably using hardware acceleration…). We couldn’t stream Lupin, at least for a while - the HIDIVE site was taking forever to load (we could see a “The site is loading” message with a percentage that increased VERY slowly, and which outright stopped at 99%). At around 9 we gave up and swapped in a sampler: RPG Real Estate (CR). After that we were able to start watching Lupin part 6 episode 15. However, we kept running into video errors so we went to a short sampler: Jantama Pong, aka Mahjong Soul Pon episodes 0-2 (CR). Attendance:
Saturday, April 16 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 2 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 The aquatope on white sand 15-16 (CR) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 2 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:45 Samplers Short stuff missed portion of The Executioner and Her Way of Life (HD) missed portion of Miss Shachiku and the Little Baby Ghost (CR) Backup samplers, in case HiDive has more issues: Don't Hurt Me, My Healer! (CR) 9:45 - 10:35 Feature: One Pound Gospel (YT) Notes: This Saturday it was Alan’s turn to attend remotely. We tried streaming from David’s computer again and it seemed to be working except for audio issues. He restarted Discord and then the audio worked…and the computer froze partway through an episode of Aquatope. We switched to Arthur’s old laptop. At first we got poor audio via David’s microphone, then somewhat better audio from Arthur’s microphone - this was because we weren’t getting streamed audio. Also, Discord did a surprisingly good job of filtering audio so that it only caught voices, not music or background effects. At break we discussed this, and found out Discord wasn’t streaming audio because Arthur’s laptop had been sharing the whole screen instead of a specific application. Once it was switched to streaming from Chrome, we started getting full audio (we also got some doubled sound via David’s microphone…) This took enough time that we couldn’t fit in all the scheduled features. We went with (1)the rest of The Executioner and Her Way of Life and (2) Aoashi before the feature. Attendance:
Week 3 Friday, April 22 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 4 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 In the Land of Leadale 5-6 (CR) 7:45 - 8:35 Megaton Musashi 6-7 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 Lupin III part 6 eps 15-16 (HD) 9:35 - 10:25 Attack on Titan the Final Season part 2 80-81 (CR) Notes: Alan tried watching the stream and sharing audio via his laptop, hoping that Discord would know what audio it was emitting and would know not to transmit that as speech. It didn’t work, though Discord’s noise filter worked as usual, cutting out music and sound effects from the show, but not speech… Attendance:
Saturday, April 23 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 3 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 The aquatope on white sand 17-18 (CR) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 3 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:45 Samplers Don't Hurt Me, My Healer! (CR) 9:45 - 10:40 Feature: To-Y (Internet Archive) Notes: Showings were run from David’s old laptop to start. Brian suggested adding both season of Pacific Rim the Black to next season’s voting spreadsheet. By the time we finished our scheduled samplers we were a bit behind schedule, so we bailed on the feature for now and decided to finish sampling Miss Shachiku and the Little Baby Ghost (CR). Brian has been catching up on Demon Slayer season 1, so we need to find where the movie is streaming or Alan needs to bring in his Blu-ray. Attendance:
Week 4 Friday, April 29 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 5 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 In the Land of Leadale 7-8 (CR) 7:45 - 8:35 Megaton Musashi 8-9 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 8:50 short sampler: Onipan!

The rest of the club was as well, and opted to watch movie 2 next week. I'd previously thought the show was streaming on TubiTV, but it looks like that may have only been true for a year or so; it's still on Amazon though (both parts), as well as on Shout Factory TV. Attendance:
Week 5 Friday, May 6 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 6 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 In the Land of Leadale 9-10 (CR) 7:45 - 8:35 Megaton Musashi 10-11 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 Lupin III part 6 eps 19-20 (HD) 9:35 - 10:25 Attack on Titan the Final Season part 2 84-85 (CR) Notes: Steve was remote tonight due to "an abundance of caution" as we say these days. Attendance:
Saturday, May 7 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 5 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 The aquatope on white sand 21-22 (CR) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 5 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 10:30 Features: Haikara-san: Here Comes Miss Modern movie 2 of 2 (Amzn) Road Buster Bean Bandit (Kickstarter file download) Fallback feature (if we're short on time): To-Y (Internet Archive) Notes: Alan was remote and very late tonight (for family reasons), only making it in time for the ED of Demon Girl Next Door. For the feature we had time for Haikara-san movie 2, but not Bean Bandit. Attendance:
Week 6 Friday, May 13 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 7 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 In the Land of Leadale 11-12 (CR) 7:45 - 8:35 Megaton Musashi 12-13 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 Lupin III part 6 eps 21-22 (HD) 9:35 - 10:25 Attack on Titan the Final Season part 2 86-87 (CR) Notes: Arthur’s microphone started off very noisy tonight, just like last Friday (but NOT like last Saturday…). Arthur made sure to reconnect his microphone, and that fixed the issue. Attendance:
Saturday, May 14 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 6 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 The aquatope on white sand 23-24 (CR) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 6 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:20 Samplers Deaimon: Recipe for Happiness (CR) 9:20 - 10:30 Feature: On-Gaku: Our Sound (BD rip) Fallback feature
Notes: We actually watched On-Gaku: Our Sound. David's new showings computer (previously his gaming computer) had no problem streaming the BD rip. It was funny, but both David and Brian felt it was much too slow-paced - "it could have been at least 20 minutes shorter" was a comment. Attendance:
Week 7 Friday, May 20 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department will be skipped this week (CR) 6:30 - 7:20 Banished from the Hero's Party... 2-3 (nostalgia trip! a show that's still on Funi exclusively - this week only) 7:20 - 8:10 Macross Frontier 1-2 (fs) 8:10 - 8:20 intermission 8:20 - 9:10 Lupin III part 6 eps 23-24 (HD) 9:10 - 9:35 My Dress-Up Darling 2 (CR, Funi) 9:35 - 10:25 The World's Finest Assassin... 2-3 (CR) Notes: It turns out that The World’s Finest Assassin on Crunchyroll defaults to Portuguese subs, just like Lupin used to. Attendance:
Saturday, May 21 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 7 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Chihayafuru S3 eps 1-2 (CR, HD) 7:45 - 8:10 Samplers, part 1: Healer Girl (CR) Demon Girl Next Door S2 not airing this week (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:20 Samplers, part 2 In the Heart of Kunoichi Tsubaki (CR) 9:20 - 10:10 Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc 1 (CR) 10:10 - 10:25 Short feature: Road Buster Bean Bandit (Kickstarter file download) Notes: Audio trouble at David’s tonight. We got them resolved and started watching around 7:15. This caused us to postpone a sampler and our short feature. Demon Girl Next Door was pre-empted this week, apparently by a golf tournament - see the tweet by manga creaor Izumi Ito. Attendance:
Week 8 Friday, May 27 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 8 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Banished from the Hero's Party... 4-5 (CR, Funi) 7:45 - 8:35 Macross Frontier 3-4 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 My Dress-Up Darling 3-4 (CR, Funi) 9:35 - 10:25 The World's Finest Assassin... 4-5 (CR) Notes: No Brian this week - he was out of town visiting family (he’d mentioned that the week prior). We decided to do Saturday showings completely remotely - in addition to Brian being out of town, Arthur said he might need to leave early, and Alan was going to have to attend from home this week anyway. Attendance:
Saturday, May 28 on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 8 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Chihayafuru S3 eps 3-4 (CR, HD) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 7 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:45 Samplers The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as a Typical Nobody (CR) 9:45 - 10:35 Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc 2-3 (CR) Notes: Fully remote this Saturday - Brian was out of town, Alan had to stay home for family reasons, Arthur also needed to be available for family reasons, and Adam was of course still in Hong Kong. Attendance:
Week 9 Friday, June 3 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 9 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Banished from the Hero's Party... 6-7 (CR, Funi) 7:45 - 8:35 Macross Frontier 5-6 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 My Dress-Up Darling 5-6 (CR, Funi) 9:35 - 10:25 The World's Finest Assassin... 6-7 (CR) Notes: Essentially fully remote this week, because Stevezilla joined late (remotely) and David was off playing Magic tonight and didn't make it. Gene was also busy. Attendance:
Saturday, June 4 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 9 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Chihayafuru S3 eps 5-6 (CR, HD) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 8 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:45 Samplers Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie (CR) Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs (CR) 9:45 - 10:35 Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc 4-5 (CR) Notes: Attendance:
Week 10 As of this week: Anime Expo has dropped then reinstated (1 day later) their vaccination-or-negative-test mandate. They claim they still have a mask mandate, but if they aren't going to check vax/test (once per entrance), I don't see how they'll handle continuous monitoring of mask compliance. Friday, June 10 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 10 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Banished from the Hero's Party... 8-9 (CR, Funi) 7:45 - 8:35 Macross Frontier 7-8 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 My Dress-Up Darling 7-8 (CR, Funi) 9:35 - 10:25 The World's Finest Assassin... 8-9 (CR) Notes: Alan needs to provide Steve with Macross Frontier episodes for the prior 2 weeks (so 3-6 instead of just 5-6). Attendance:
Saturday, June 11 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 10 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Chihayafuru S3 eps 7-8 (CR, HD) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 9 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:20 Samplers 9:20 - 10:35 Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc 6-8 (CR) Notes: This week we had 3 episodes of Demon Slayer and only 2 samplers because Alan had the wrong number of Demon Slayer episodes in mind for this season, and was trying to get us through something more like 12-13 episodes by the end of the season Attendance:
Week 11 Friday, June 17 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 11 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Banished from the Hero's Party... 10-11 (CR, Funi) 7:45 - 8:35 Macross Frontier 9-10 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 My Dress-Up Darling 9-10 (CR, Funi) 9:35 - 10:25 The World's Finest Assassin... 10-11 (CR) Notes: Turns out there's only 12 episodes of The World's Finest Assassin rather than 13, which means there'll only be 1 episode of it in week 12. Also, we talked about holding showings on Friday, July 1 (the Friday of Anime Expo weekend). Attendance:
Saturday, June 18 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 11 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Chihayafuru S3 eps 9-10 (CR, HD) 7:45 - 8:10 Demon Girl Next Door S2 10 (HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:30 - 9:45 Samplers In the Heart of Kunoichi Tsubaki (CR) 9:45- 10:35 Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc 9-10 (CR) Notes: Spriggan episode 1 was double-length. Actually, all 6 episodes are double-length; it's like 6 OVA episodes. Also, we basically confirmed we'd have showings the night of Friday, July 1. Attendance:
Week 12 Friday, June 24 at Alan's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 6:55 Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department 12 (CR) 6:55 - 7:45 Banished from the Hero's Party... 12-13 (CR, Funi) 7:45 - 8:35 Macross Frontier 11-12 (fs) 8:35 - 8:45 intermission 8:45 - 9:35 My Dress-Up Darling 11-12 (CR, Funi) 9:35 - 10 The World's Finest Assassin... 12 (CR) 10 - 10:25 Re-Sampler: Kotaro Lives Alone (Netflix) Notes: Steve had already seen all of Kotaro Lives Alone, and others still in showings (notably Adam, Brian, and Arthur) all preferred something else. So we decided to sample Spy x Family episode 2. Attendance:
Saturday, June 25 at David's and on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 7:20 Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- 12-13 (CR) 7:20 - 8:10 Chihayafuru S3 eps 11-12 (CR, HD) 8:10 - 8:30 intermission 8:3 - 8:55 Demon Girl Next Door S2 11 (HD) 8:55 - 9:45 Samplers Black Rock Shooter Dawn Fall (fs) 9:45- 10:20 Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc 11 (CR) Fallback sampler: Summer Time Rendering (fs) Notes: Kaguya-sama’s conclusion was presented as 2 episodes (12-13) rather than a single, double-length episode as Alan had originally though. We ended up making it through all 3 samplers. Attendance:
Week 13 - Anime Expo weekend Also the 4th of July, if you observe that kind of thing. Friday, July 1 on the PCAS Discord server 6:30 - 8:10 Re-samplers Love After World Domination (CR) The Executioner and Her Way of Life (HD) I'm Quitting Heroing (HD) Aharen-san wa Hakarenai ep 2 (CR) 8:10 - 8:35 Sampler: Bastard!!
