Post your feedback for anything club-related in here.

At this time in particular we are in need of your feedback and advice for the structure of the anime watching and voting system. Do you like it? How could it be better? What is a good schedule to watch anime at?

Like pretty much all of our threads, I'll watch this one like a wild buffalo prances through valleys of flowers >,>
Or maybe just like an eagle.

Particular concerns I have at the moment:

When is a good time to close the anime suggestions thread?
I'm thinking about Friday, but I'm open to suggestions.

Would you prefer we have one short anime or two running at a time?
Current status is one

Does it need to be closed? Couldn't you just keep it open and keep accruing suggestions for the next round and the one after that?

What do you think of maybe implementing an Anime Shorts Night or something? We could watch things like the Anime Mirai shorts once a week or something?

Or, series with incredibly short episodes? Like, 15 min. max?

If we do, I'm gonna go ahead and plug Mangaka-san right now; that shizz is hilarious (and I can't get enough of Matsuoka-sama).

I don't see anything wrong with that idea, boss! I have no knowledge of implementation; whether we'd imbed it weekly at a certain time, or skype it, etc.; I'll leave that one to my betters.

And someone brought up simulcasting/streaming the club anime, but it seems like a mess waiting to happen and I'm not sure it'd be that popular. Maybe in the future, or if a lot of interest is expressed we can implement something of the sort?

Yeah, I'd read that; simulcasting it for a group viewing would probably be a mess, coordinating a time for it, I was just snowballing.
I'm not opposed to the idea, for the future, but idk that'd work for me, personally, ever.
Doesn't mean the club can't do it tho!

idk... things are in a dubious position atm. I'm thinking of dropping the chatzy link somewhere to see if that helps, though in my mind doing such a thing is kind of a deathblow

Well, from a general socialization standpoint, I don't believe the chatzy's a bad way to go; it's just unguided, unstructured, and could potentially be intimidating to newcomers, due to the nuance and inside jokes from us that spend some time in there.

But yeah, from a club activity standpoint, idk if it's the way to go. It's kinda what caused the implosion last time.

I wouldn't say that I think the club's social presence has been "dubious" per se; I just think people get pre-occupied with life. I myself attempt to remain consistent and check in at least, every day.

I think the best course of action is to brainstorm ways to promote daily traffic; we have the weekly traffic covered with the club viewings, but for there to be something to check in for every day, that'd help, I think.

How about we pick a series with short episodes, like, 2 to 10 minutes and watch it daily?

Yea that's a good analysis of the situation. As for Tex's idea, I'm on board for such a thing. I think just dictating something would be better than going through a voting process for something so short. Would this occur immediately or after GitS is finished.

Yeah, a mandated series would probably be easier to manage for that sort of deal. I think it sounds pretty great, actually; quick little daily short, and some discussion could be amusing.

Implementation timing, I'd suggest, we oughta get rolling soon, just for daily traffic purposes; the upside to those really short episodic shows, at least the few I've seen, is that they can be picked up and run with REALLY easily, like, no effort needed, so I wouldn't think it'd interfere with the current group viewing. But seeing as how GitS should be coming to a close soon, you could go that route too.

alright! We'll start with the new year! How about that?

Any suggestions for the anime? Who wants to pick it?

Well, I've only really watched any of a couple of shows...

The first one that comes to mind; it'd be lengthy, but we could watch Chi's Sweet Home...
The next would be Onee-chan ga kita! (I watched it while airing, pretty dumb.)

Those are the only two shows I've got in the tank, any other ideas?

Well, there are probably five or ten that come to mind, but Chi's Sweet Home sounds good to me ^^ (Unless anyone else has some propositions, I will use that one when I make the topic)

I've seen quite a few so I could recommend some. Let's see...these are some that I enjoyed and would be good options:

Chitose Get You!!
Kantoku Fuyuki Todoke
Miss Monochrome
Pupipo!
Recorder to Randoseru
Teekyu
Tonari no Seki-kun
Yama no Susume
Mangaka-san to Assisstant-san to

All worth a watch I think. I know ara's seen a few of these. I'd stick to ones with lower episode counts to start so that there's a quicker turnover. I feel like that will encourage more participation.

I'm in favor of Tonari no Seki-ken, personally ^^ (though several on that list are pretty darn fun)

Yeah, a lower episode count would be good...
I've seen Mangaka-san as well, absolutely hilarious!

I'm cool with Tonari no Seki-kun; that actually sounds very amusing!

Tonari no Seki-kun is great. Highly recommended. One of my favorites shows of this year. Overall not just among shorts. So, yeah, I'd be up for rewatching it.
