Fullmetal Alchemist and Slayers coming your way!

Alright everybody, last week was a phenomenal success and this week we hope it'll be the same!
(As per usual, we'll be in EN-2006 at 7:30pm)

Last year, for our midterm fest, we showed the series Fullmetal Alchemist in its entirety. It was around that time that a movie for the series was announced - and it was in Japanese theatres that summer. Now, finally, it's out and we can show it to you guys! But if you didn't catch the series, or are a little rusty, fear not! A one-hour special aired on Japanese television called Reflections. We like to call it FMA-in-an-hour. As you might guess, it's a recap of the entire series in the span of an hour. It's a perfect way to refresh your memory before...

Fullmetal Alchemist: The Conqueror of Shambala
Munich, Germany, 1923. Two years have passed since Edward Elric was dragged from his own world to ours, leaving behind his country, his friends and his younger brother, Alphonse. Stripped of his alchemical powers, he has been all this time researching rocketry together with Alphonse Heiderich, a young man who resembles his own brother, hoping to one day find a way back home. His efforts so far had proven fruitless, but after lending a hand to a troubled gipsy girl, Edward is thrown in a series of events that can wreak havoc in both worlds. Meanwhile, at his own world, Alphonse Elric ventures deeper into the mysteries of alchemy in search for a way to reunite with his older brother.

But of course, there's still time left in the night! So, after we get all that FMA out of our systems, it'll be time to watch:

Slayers Return
Outrageous enemies such as secret organizations aiming to dominate the world and mysterious strongest fighting forces attack Lina and Naga one after another for legendary "treasure" lying in a village in which Elves used to live. In addition, an immortal monster not affected by attacking magic appears and drive Lina and Naga into a terrible pinch. What they should do?
