Hey, so, I'm Rebecca. I'm a sophomore transfer to CAS, majoring in psychology and Hellenic Studies. I can't really say I have a favorite genre per se since I'm sort of eclectic in what I watch (in the past year, for instance, I've dabbled in Super Robot Wars: OG - the Inspector, FMA: Brotherhood, and Soul Eater, among others).
Uh, hm. I don't really read manga. I have a hard time justifying spending $10 for something I can read in half-an-hour :'D
I'm also into video games a fair bit as well. I tend to focus on JRPGs the most, but I also really like simulation, strategy, and action-adventure. Just finished The Legacy of Ys: Books 1&2 and busy with Terraria, Pokemon Puzzle League (this game is like crack :(), and Half-Minute Hero, so, yeah.
See you guys on Thursday, I guess?

Hello, everyone~ I'm Abbi Talamonti, and I am excited to be here! I'm a freshman in CAS, majoring in East Asian Studies with minors in creative writing and Animal Studies. I'm really into a lot of fandoms because I love watching, playing, and reading new things and getting into as many fandoms as I can, but I do have some favorites. As far as video games go, my favorite game of all time is The World Ends With You, followed by Ghost Trick, the Ace Attorney series, Professor Layton, Kingdom Hearts, Persona 4 (who's excited for the anime? I am, I am!) and Pokémon My favorite anime(/light novel hurrdurr) is Durarara!! with Code Geass coming up as a close second. More recently, I've been watching(and reading) Ao no Exorcist along with Tiger & Bunny and No. 6. It's hard to peg my favorite manga of all time, though, since I've read so many... Ao no Exorcist, Katekyou Hitman Reborn! (which I just got into this summer. Delayed reaction much?), Kuroshitsuji, and Bokura ni Matsuwaru Etc. are definitely my favorites, though. Um... I think that's pretty much it. I'm really excited to meet everyone at Thursday's meeting!

Hi everyone! I'm Meredith. I'm a freshman in LSP, but my anticipated major is East Asian Studies. I've been an anime fan since elementary school, when my mom brought home My Neighbor Totoro from her Japanese Studies class. Some of my favorite shows are Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni, Ao no Exorcist, Mononoke, Kodocha, Jigoku Shoujo, and plenty others I just can't think of right now. I don't read manga anymore like I used to in middle school, but I was a big Furuba fan for sure. Recently I've been reading Higanbana no Saku Yoru Ni. I'm big into Ryukishi07's stuff, especially the visual novels. I've read all of Umineko except for EP 8, which I'm still waiting on the translation for, as well as Higanbana. I don't play video games at all. I do sometimes play Fatal Frame 2, when I'm feeling okay with being scared shitless. I'm also a big fan of Japanese culture. I've played shamisen in the city for about 3 years and played at Sakura Matsuri in Brooklyn! I also like to collect kimono when I have the money (read: never), and am proud of the knowledge I've collected about kitsuke. I run a humble little kimono fan blog on tumblr, too. Unfortunately, I'm unable to make it to the first meeting tomorrow because my dad is coming from Florida to visit me, but I hope to meet you all at the next one!

Hey hey! I'm Alexandra Friedman (but call me Alex, please). I'm a freshman in LSP and while my major is undecided now I'm thinking about dramatic writing in Tisch.
I've been watching anime and reading manga since middle school; some of my favorite series are D.N.Angel, Yami no Matsuei, Kuroshitsuji, Axis Powers Hetalia, The Tarot Cafe, and Puella Magi Madoka Magica. As far as video games are, I love Kingdom Hearts, The World Ends With You, Pokemon, Kirby (anything and everything!) and Dance Dance Revolution. I could blab forever about other series and whatnot, but I'll try to leave it there. :3
I'm also pretty into Homestuck at the moment (not Japanese or anime, but a big presence at anime conventions!)
Nice to meet all of you, can't wait for Thursday!

Sup. My name is Tony Xie and I'm a CAS Freshman majoring in Linguistics and minoring in Japanese. I'm in Advanced Japanese 1 this year and can understand 70% of anime without subs (the path to really watching raws is a long one), though I powered through the entirety of Yugioh 5D's raw(I love that show, don't hate on it just because GX blew).
Also, I (used to) make forum signatures and got okay-ish at it through some help from some friends. I used to literally make one every other day, but I haven't changed my sig for over... 3 months now? lulz.

Hi, Sherryです!>U<
A little awkward to be posting here in the middle of the school year, but I'll be joining the anime club this semester, so I thought why not! >___<;;
I'm taking Japanese classes at NYU at the moment; still in the elementary level though >3<; My favorite anime is K-ON >U<
I cosplayed for the first time at COMICON 2011 (also my first con) as Suzumiya Haruhi ;u;
Oh, and I am also a big fan of maids! ;u;
By the way, does anyone know when the meeting this week is? It doesn't seem to be updated on the club website yet.. >___<
