AnimEtion Club: Come one, come all to the AnimEtioN Club! Formerly the token anime club of OCC, the AnimEtioN Club
encompasses much more than just Japanese animation. Everything from live action movies to classic cartoons of both American and Japanese
creation are shown on a weekly basis. A place to come and enjoy your favorite media is what we provide, and all we ask in return is respect
for the rules. Trust me, there is no better way to spend a Thursday afternoon or evening than with friends and a movie or show you all enjoy.
