JETAA Chicago and the Japan America Society of Chicago YPC continue our Anime & Art Club with a meeting on Thursday, September 11th!
Our club will be discussing various individual anime series. For our next meeting, we have chosen episodes 1-4 of Leviathan, based on the book series by Scott Westerfeld. It's set in an alternate steampunk version of World War I, following the story of a fugitive prince and a girl disguised as a boy who meet on a bioengineered airship.
Be sure to view the anime in advance (available on Netflix & Crunchyroll) and join us for an evening of casual discussion in a virtual space via Zoom! Registrations are limited, so grab a spot while you can!
This event is open to JET alumni, JASC YPC members and friends.

Our book club highlights voices and stories with a solid connection to Japan. For our next meeting, we chose "Beast in the Shadows" by Edogawa Rampo. A mystery writer turns detective to protect the woman he loves. But is he the hunter or the hunted? The chance meeting between a crime novelist and a married woman blossoms into friendship. When she confides to him that she has been receiving threatening and sadistic letters from an ex-lover, who says he is watching her in the shadows, he knows he must help her. But the trail unexpectedly leads to another writer, Oe Shundei, the mysterious and secretive author of works of grotesque violence. Suddenly, nothing is as it seems, and nobody is safe.
Be sure to pick up a copy of the book and join us for an evening of casual discussion in a virtual space via Zoom! Registrations are limited, so grab a spot while you can!
This event is for JET alumni, JASC YPC members and friends.
