Kusaka Trip 5/4


SPAMM will be taking its very first trip to Kusaka Restaurant in Mineral Point on Saturday, May 4th. We will be leaving from the McGregor lot at 11am.

During this semester it has been brought to our attention that there is a delicious Japanese restaurant in Mineral Point. We will be going there for the final trip of the semester.This will be a shorter trip, as it is only about a 25 minute drive and there is little to do in Mineral Point.

The restaurant is run by a graduate of the Sendai School of Cooking who moved to Wisconsin after the tsunami. They home-make everything and we have tried their ramen and curry, which were both fantastic. A little more pricey than Mitsuwa's ramen, but way easier to get to. Their facebook page is found here: https://www.facebook.com/KusakaRestaurant

Sign up by 11pm on Friday 5/3. Please include if you can drive and how many people you can fit in your car.

Shingeki no Kyojin / Attack on Titan
Dark, original cool
Another show that should be shown after break

art-9, effects-10, plot-7, sound-8, dialogue-9, interesting-quite so for once an anime intrigues me more than the manga, the gut-not the widest appeal but I'd like it
Extremely gruesome

It's a good series with good comedic parts with a good bit of drama.
Probably want to see a few more episodes, but first episode was funny
Interesting idea for a shojo especially the mind reading

His main mission is to save ESPers who are mistreated by humans, even if that be by force. Through his methods, he has saved many ESPer lives and gained the loyalty of those he has saved. The name of his group: P.A.N.D.R.A." --Anime News Network

Image
"The story is set in a world embroiled by war between Humans and Demons. The Humans' greatest hero invades the Demon Queen's castle determined to vanquish her.

She explains how a sudden end to the war can bring further chaos to the world as the Humans once united to stand against their common enemies would eventually begin fighting among themselves, with similar issues already occurring at the Demon Realm. Convinced by her words, the Hero joins forces with the Queen and together they execute a plan to bring prosperity and a lasting peace to both Humans and Demons alike." --Anime News Network
"After watching this series, I still do not know the name of a single character." --qPenguin

"The story begins in the distant future in the far reaches of the galaxy. The Human Galactic Alliance has been constantly fighting for its survival against a grotesque race of beings called "Hidiaazu." During an intense battle, the young lieutenant Redo and his humanoid mobile weapon Chamber are swallowed up into a distortion of time and space. Waking from his artificially induced hibernation, Redo realizes that he has arrived on Earth, the planet on the lost frontier. On this planet that was completely flooded by the seas, people live in fleets of giant ships, salvaging relics from the seas' depths in order to survive. Redo arrives on one of the fleets called Gargantia. With no knowledge of the planet's history or culture, he is forced to live alongside Amy, a 15-year-old girl who serves as a messenger aboard the Gargantia fleet. To Redo, who has lived a life where he knows nothing but fighting, these days of peace continue to surprise him." --Anime News Network

Shingeki no Kyojin / Attack on Titan
Image
"Several hundred years ago, humans were nearly exterminated by giants. Giants are typically several stories tall, seem to have no intelligence, devour human beings and, worst of all, seem to do it for the pleasure rather than as a food source. A small percentage of humanity survived by walling themselves in a city protected by extremely high walls, even taller than the biggest of giants.
Flash forward to the present and the city has not seen a giant in over 100 years. Teenage boy Eren and his foster sister Mikasa witness something horrific as the city walls are destroyed by a super giant that appears out of thin air. As the smaller giants flood the city, the two kids watch in horror as their mother is eaten alive. Eren vows that he will murder every single giant and take revenge for all of mankind." --Manga Helpers
"Dat smile O.o" --qPenguin
