POWA Screening, 4th August, 2024

Location: Joondalup Library, Upstairs Meeting Room

Apologies for the somewhat last-minute posting of this event! Rest assured: POWA is screening this Sunday, as usual.

We are back on our regular schedule after last weeks’ General Meeting and Seasonal Preview – thanks to those who came to both, but for those who missed the General Meeting but want to know what was discussed, including the results of a vote to change one of POWA’s by-laws, please contact the committee on any channel you want, and we will make the minutes of the meeting available to you.

This week, in addition to the normal schedule, brings with it some voting – most notably, a vote for our new Slice of Life/Romance series! So, make sure your membership is up to date if you want to have a say on what show gets picked by the community!

Additionally, we also run into the first vote for our newer Action & Sports series “Jujutsu Kaisen”. Those looking at our schedule may wonder where the episode 20 vote for our Drama “Chihayafuru” is at – as episode 16 was a (skipped!) recap episode, that will come next screening.

After POWA, this weekend, we also have a return to our monthly games night, on Discord! Starting at about 6:30pm, this one will focus on online party games – things along the lines of What the Dub?! And Use Your Words. While a microphone may improve your experience, it is not required – all you need is to be on our Discord!

Entry for our weekly screenings is $4 for members and $5 for guests – However, your first time is free! Every entry prior to our break receives a raffle ticket for a weekly prize. We will be in the upstairs meeting rooms of the City of Joondalup Library. Our doors will open at the same time as the library – 1:00PM – and we will start screening at 1:30PM, leaving you time to find the room and settle down with some drinks and snacks.

We hope to see you there!

This week’s schedule:

1:00 – Doors Open

1:30 – Chihayafuru Season 2 – Episode 20 (Drama)

2:00 – DECA-DENCE – Episode 3 (Scifi)

2:30 – Jujutsu Kaisen – Episode 4 (Action & Sports, Voting!)

POWA Summer Seasonal Preview, 28th July, 2024

Clear Blue Skies, trips to the beach and a dry heat abound! Somewhere else than locally, sure, but that does mean that it is just about time for the Summer Seasonal Preview!

So POWA is taking it upon ourselves to bring to you a selection of what shows are airing this season – and there’s always a variety of shows for us to bring forward – everything from multi-lingual Tsundere RomComs to whatever that one Deer show with that earworm opening song could be best summarized as, as well as a few fantasy Isekais for some variety!

What shows, specifically, we are planning on screening is something we like to keep close to the chest, but there will surely be something to entertain anyone and everyone who arrives!

And, as always, after the screening itself ends, POWA moves onto Discord to keep the anime going with even more shows – ones that we couldn’t fit into our schedule at the library itself! This “After Party” will take place in one of our Voice Chat rooms, with a shared screen to assist those who want to sync up their own streams and watch along. If you want to join in on this After Party, join our Discord through the “About” page on our website, POWAClub.com!

The schedule for the shows to be screened at the After Party will be made available at the conclusion of the in-person event, allowing people a chance to get their streaming services active again.

Entry for our weekly screenings is $4 for members and $5 for guests. However, your first time is free! Every entry prior to our break receives a raffle ticket for a weekly prize. We will be in the upstairs meeting room, of Joondalup Library. Our doors will open at the same time as the library – 1:00PM and we will start screening at 1:30PM, leaving you time to find the room and settle down with some drinks and snacks.

We hope to see you there!
