Do you eat food on occasion? Do you breath? If so – and you aren’t afraid of a few photons, then you may be interested in this event.
Our purpose is to create Japanese traditional boxed lunches (bento) and then hold picnics. This time the picnic will be held at NCSU’s Arboretum. If weather will not permit us to be outside, we have another on campus option in mind.

Anime USA is a convention happening during the weekend of November 18th-20th, and is a 3-day convention in Arlington, Virginia. A link to their site can be found to the right of this post. This event is a bit farther off, but if you’re interested in coordinating with us then keep an eye out for details.
It’s here! Librari-con 2011 is just around the corner and you’ll find us volunteering again this year. Luckily, we survived last year’s commute and won’t have to fight any hurricanes this time.
Librari-con is a small, free, one-day convention in Fayetteville, NC. This year it will be from 10am-5pm on September 3, 2011. Librari-con is “an annual anime mini convention featuring anime viewing, panels and forums, Artists Alley, Chibi Corner, Manga Lounge, Cosplay Runway, and more” (from their website). If you are in the area or feel like driving, then drop in and say hi.
More information about Librari-con can be found here -> http://www.cumberland.lib.nc.us/teen/Libraricon/teens-Librari-Con2011.html
If you’re interested in carpooling, contact mtkolbas@ncsu.edu and we’ll see if we can work something out.
It’s time for Otakon, one of the largest conventions on this coast. If you’re thinking about going, then shoot us an e-mail and maybe we’ll see you there.
Otakon is in Baltimore, MD, on the weekend of July 29th-31st, and more info can be found on their site, www.otakon.com. This year they’ve got Makoto Shinkai (ANN) 
and Kazuya Murata among other guests.
Otakon will also be holding a Matsuri on Thursday, from noon-6pm. Take a look.
UPDATE: SRPE will be helping out at the Matsuri, so be sure stop by and take it easy before the con.
Keep enjoying those summer seasons, and we’ll hope to see you there!
Animazement is a local Japanese Animation and Culture convention that many
of our members attend. SRPE has again been offered the chance to help run
one of Animazement’s video rooms. The convention happens during memorial
day weekend, May 27th-29th, and general information can be found at
http://www.animazement.org/. Please drop by the our video room and say HI!
This year we’re running the room later than usual :] but we’ll also be starting later in the day. If you’re interested in hanging out or volunteering some at our table, then just e-mail me at mtkolbas@ncsu.edu and we’ll pass along the details.
Hope to see ya there!

By now, you’ve hopefully recovered from the back to back Bento Picnic and International Festival. Well, don’t settle just yet. It’s time to stager out of dormancy, hunger renewed, and fall upon the cornucopia that is Anime USA. Our winter has not yet arrived! We will preserve our jucy days! And with what better way, than Anime USA.
Wait, what’s AnimeUSA?
AUSA is another anime convention which is held in Arlington, Virgina. This convention is a reasonable size and is run “by fans, for fans” so it tends to provide an easy going atmosphere. Unlike at our local convention, Animazement, many of us aren’t volunteering, so we’ll be taking it easy and having fun for most of the con. If you’re interested, it’s being held next weekend, November 11th-12th, and details can be found on their site: www.animeusa.org
If you’re planning on attending and want to meet up with SRPE then just contact us by e-mail before hand and we’ll work on coordinating something.
