Welcome to UNOtaku's official website!
We are University of Nebraska's anime club and meet every Thursday from 7PM to 10 in the Milo Bail Student Center throughout the standard school year. Keep watch here, or our facebook page, for new information!
Random anime suggestions!
Betterman: Very creepy and dark giant robot anime. From the same creator of GaoGaiGar surprisingly. No lighthearted-ness here, very Evangellian like.
Mnemosyne: Lady who can’t die works as a private investigator.
Mushishi: Travelling guy tries to investigate a force that’s neither plant nor animal as well as deal with supernatural occurrences that may be connected.

Our first summer meeting of the year was a success! We watched 2 episodes apiece of [C]-Control and Nichijou, the top two voted in by the 10 voters of the week. (Hey, I know there were more people there… if you don’t vote, the communists win! That said, BOWSER REVOLUTION!)
Also, Working! Part of our initiative to get in new content — we watched Working!! as our first soon-to-be-weekly random pick. Also also, we’re gonna try starting anime at 6:30 to get in a full 2 and a half hours (that’s roughly 7 episodes!)
And remember, if you’ve got suggestions for the club — feel free to talk to our staff (…our list on the site isn’t very up to date), post on our faceook wall, or post on our blog anonymously.

Tony here! Just a reminder that in a little less than 2 weeks now we will have our end of the semester marathon! I will be ordering some pizza (dominoes 5-5-5, cheese, pepperoni, and whatever else) some time around noon.

Depending on however many people there are, this will probably not be a lot so… if you want to bring anything for yourself or to share, I’d encourage it!
Also… if this schedule is right, we technically have the room this Thursday night as well. Normally we don’t have club on Finals week because… finals week, but if I’ve heard right there are no Friday finals this year. Would anyone be around for a less-official-than normal club day?

Nichijou! My Ordinary Life…
A life filled with going to school on a goat, Jan Ken Pon, Moe, trouble ordering coffee, robots who don’t want anyone to see the key in their back, and a talking black cat named Sakamoto.

First meeting of the new semester in 2 weeks! Thursday January the 12th! Fortunately this semester I’ll be free to enjoy the full club time! Also, does anyone remember what else we watched? I’d like to fill the ‘recently watched’ show list.
Anyway, I’m here to advocate Bento! Fight alongside the Ice Witch, Muscle Cop, Brunette, and others for delicious half priced food! Those of you who stayed for the extended hours of our end-of-the-semester-marathon got to see a couple episodes already; I’m hoping the rest of you will get to enjoy it as well!

I have been a fan of Jojo for a few years now, I started out reading Stone Ocean, the 6th arc back when it was still coming out. When I realized that there was a much larger back story involved I went back and read all of it. Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure starts out with the story of Johnathan Jostar and and Dio Brando and the rest of Jojo revolves around the family line of the Jostars. With out giving to much away, the Jostar family takes in Dio after his fathers death and try and raise him like a son, but Dio being the asshole that he is, spends most of his life with the Jostars trying to beat down Johnathan and generally doing horrible things. The Jostar family owns a relic called the Stone Mask, which after a bloody fight between Jojo and Dio, something strange happens when the Stone Mask is hit with blood. Eager to learn more, Johnathan studies the mask to discover its secrets, but it is Dio who discovers them and uses the mask to ultimately try and destroy the Jostar line once and for all.
Their are 8 arcs currently:
Phantom Blood
Battle Tendency
Stardust Crusaders
Diamond is Unbreakable
Vento Aureo
Stone Ocean
Steel Ball Run
Jojolion
Mangaka: Araki Hirohiko
Published: 1987-2003 in Weekly Shonen Jump, 2004-current Ultra Shonen Jump
Yeah, that’s right, this manga has been going non-stop since 1987, which is important to remember if you start reading, the 80s where a long time ago and the art shows that.
Where to read it? Well, the first 2 arcs and half of the 3 are published by Viz, but stupidly hard to find. I don’t normally recommended Manga Traders, but to be able to read Jojo in order you have to download it from them. (yeah, those idiots over at Mangareader can’t put the chapters in the right order)
