No college is complete without a host of clubs; someplace where people of similar interests can go off to enjoy themselves. Most clubs are commonly found throughout any college, such as the Chess Club or the Writing Club. These are the sorts of classic clubs that have existed in colleges long before the turn of the century.

PVCC proudly pushes the boundaries of common interests by hosting all sorts of unique and interesting clubs. There is the Brony Club, the Smash Club, and last but certainly not least, there is the Anime Club.

The Anime Club serves as a central hub for those who share a common interest in anime, or Japanese animation. Stationed at Room 154, the Anime Club meets every Friday from 3-5  p.m., where anime is viewed through the classroom’s projector.

While the anime is being aired, viewers often have open discussions about the present anime characters and stories. Everyone is welcome to discuss and state their opinion, but anything that could be a potential spoiler is to be left to yourself.

Two different animes are screened each week, and the decision as to which anime is to be showed is decided by a viewer vote.

This April, the Anime Club will host a special event. On April 27, the Anime Club will host the Anime Cafe, where everyone is welcome. People will dress up as their favorite anime characters, and there will be finger foods, tarot readings, and tea ceremonies. The event will last from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. in the North Mall Meeting Room.

Though not as traditional as the Reading or Chess Club, the Anime Club has proven to be an effective club nonetheless. Its friendly social atmosphere is welcome to those who have never even watched anime before. Yonde kurete arigatō. Translation: Thanks for reading.
