Community Spotlight

Hope everyone had a good week. It's nto time for the Anime vice Community Spotlight. The wiki is filling up with information on a variety of series, and I'm seeing more people active in wiki editing. On Wednesday Anime Vice and Screened had their first collaboration in their User Screening Room. We watched the movie Summer Wars, and it was a lot of fun. I only wish I could of given you all more notice so you could of gotten a hold of the film. Though, I will be trying to make sure this isn't the last time we work together with Screened for more anime movies and possibly regular anime series.

Just as a reminder. Don't forget that the new era for the One Piece anime begins tomorrow on October 1st. The first era of One Piece is over with Episode 516. In Episode 517, the results of the two year time skip will be revealed. It will be streamed on FUNimation'sofficial One Piece website at 10PM EST / 7PM PST. HERE Later next month, BLEACH will have it's time skip. If that didn't get you excited, Persona 4 The Animation begins October 6th. October is going to be a GREAT month for anime.

Wow! It's Bossun!

Hopefully, Team W.I.K.I Nation will not miss that and comment on this wonderful spotlight.

Congrats everyone!

  • Kudos to KuroNekoXIII for his awesome page on The SketchBook concept page. Be sure to check it out, you Sket Dance fans.
  • Kudos to Anna for tackling three plot summaries this week! She's doing three this week while I do three next week. I managed to pull out three characters and reformat the franchises with soundtracks and overviews because it feels awkward that I'm doing one episode summary. It's tough for Anna.
  • Kudos to ShadowKnight508 for his contributions to the Six Knights concept page.

Be sure to check out My Ordinary Life, Hanasaku Iroha, Beelzebub, Blue Exorcist, Fairy Tail, Sket Dance, City Hunter and more. Those franchises are done frequently each week on Anime Vice.

The Wiki is going strong. Great job everyone who made it with their awesome work. For those who didn't, you keep doing a good job and let FoxxFireArt know.

I have a feeling next week is going to a good and big week of articles so be ready AV Community!
